New Ork Warboss

[skylerboodie]

The Meganobs Kill Team from Valrak's rumours?

[Inquisitor_Lensoven]

I’m thinking the klaw is meganobz

the rotary gun is the new walker/turret thing

the grot biker could be the Wartrakk?

The power klaw is obviously Yarrick. They're just trying misdirection!

 

That is actually...kind of possible with how the camera focuses on the klaw though...only issue is width but I suppose tricks of the camera.
The grot isn't concerned...he's locked in and letting loose with the gun he's mounted on which is funny because he's mounted on some hanging mount for the gun.
Starting to look a lot less like March and more like Mork!

Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time, a long time!

 

His 2nd edition rules were crazy and hilarious. He had a Battlecannon mounted on his bike that was so oversized that whenever he fired, he used to get blasted D6" in a random direction by the recoil.

So, which units do we reckon the images belong to?

 

The end of the article said there will be more reveals next week, so some of these will probably be solved then.

Wazdakka, all of them

yup

fixxit, claw, weapon on his bike.

 

its also implied by them saying "Let us know on our Facebook and Instagram pages what you reckon these could all be pointing towards… "

with the all in there sounds to me its all for 1 thing.

 

This also makes sense as its too early for the 11th box content to be teased ( reveal has been quite consistently may) beyond maybe an ork boy and new intercessor.

And its waayy too early for the likely late 2026 codex releasewave ( these are usually revealed late summer, after the new edition release.. with a worldwide campaign to determine wich side is shown first.)

 

But it makes sense for the campaign book ork side.

I wonder 2 things, will he come with more ork stuff like the other campaign book enemies, and is the warboss part of it.

 

Im also wondering with both sides having a possible vehicle theme.. what that means for the SoB character+unit rumor... cavalry/mounted/bikes for them ? But thats going a bit far in wild theory. ( though the extra rules side of the campaign book then could be an advanced version of the white dwarf mounted rules. )

You got me thinking about what would make a good mounted/cav unit for SoB.

 

im thinking a pulpit chariot type thing. Either an actual chariot, possibly pulled by sinners like those strapped into penitent engines, or a more pulpity version of the invader ATV, slimmed down a lot.

 

anyway back to orks I’m just really hoping looted vehicles make a comeback

When I pasted the link into WhatsApp earlier it had a tagline that I can’t see on the actual site, that says ‘another Ork kit’. So yeah presumably they’re all from the same model.

Well I’d guess wartrakk especially since they used the word track. Maybe a duel kit for the generic one and a character version.

Valrak has already said Wazdakka. The wartrakk will be once we see the 11th Ed trailer not before. 

 

Wazdakka is prepping the way to Armageddon

And could wazdakka not return to tabletop on a wartrakk?

No because he rides the Bike of the Aporkalypse. Always been a heavily modified Warbike since the day dot (second edition).

 

The wartrakk will drop with 11th.

Because they’ve never tweaked things about a character before…last I checked ghaz didn’t have a dreadnought sized exosuit in 2nd edition.

 

last I checked defilers never had any fleshy bits before this new model.

 

riding a wartrakk vs a a ‘modified’ bike doesn’t seem like an unreasonable jump if they wanted to make his model bigger and more impressive.

 

[Paturabo]

I would be overjoyed at it being Wazddaka Gutsmek. Speed Freeks orks was my first 40k army. 

 

Do y'all think his bike is going to be defkilla wartrike/buggy sized or something smaller to fit with the new biker mob?

[Ming the Merciless]

Hoping the new wartrakk will include the skorcha variant with dustbin-style turret and fuel trailer.

Wazdakka is a good shout. It could also double as a Warboss on Bike kit, since the FW model was a popular one.

Despite the similarity of the words, track and trakk reference different things.. track as a hint could just as well work with any vehicle, including a bike ( and yes, including a wartrakk )..  especially a bike in context of a race track, something befitting the kult of speed, something he already had/has.

 

Wazdakka is THE speed character, wartrakks are ork vehicles that do the exact opposite, they sacrifice speed for other utility, the bigger bike does exist, but its the trike.

 

So while they did have characters/models evolve before, they often become more what they already are ( Ghaz becomes more a frontline monster, Defiler becomes more a daemon engine ) instead of going in the opposite direction. (ghaz becoming a backline psyker, defiler becoming a flying daemon without mechanical parts .. extreme examples )

 

Such a radical change to a concept has happened before, grotesques for drukhari jump to mind ( hence it isnt impossible, just unlikely ) and I dont think the Megatrakk is particularily slower than other buggies right now anyway. But its as far out there as theorising that Wazdakka will ride a jetbike, or a deffkopta, or a buggy.

 

At this point of information, a bike is the likeliest candidate, and while out-there-speculation can be fun ( I do it alot, too much even), referencing the word track being used as evidence isnt a strong sign.

 

---

 

I missed a lot of rumors recently, but I thought the rumor was a wartruck, not a wartrakk ( dear lord, track,trakk,truck,trike... ) considering the wartrakk was kind of replaced with the megatrakk in 8th edition.

That said a scorcha never had a proper update. Do we have a list of the exact rumored Ork kits somewhere ?

The best thing about Wazdakka returning is that the chance of DOOMRIDER!!! also returning has risen ever so slightly.  Every faction needs an over-the-top motorbike-riding special character.

This and now that Red Corsairs are a whole subfaction means that they will probably get new bike sculpts for chaos marines because they are such an iconic unit for them, and who better to lead a group of EC bikers? DOOMRIDER!
