12,000 Points of Orks Showcase - Why I Love Ep 5

[@SH-qs7ee]

I think the best thing about the orks in 40k is that they don't have that same intensity about them that the other forces do. While the other races (with the exception of the tau, to some degree) have that grimness and darkness about them that can be fun, the orks are irreverent; they're not overly concerned with the survival of their species in a hostile universe, or getting vengeance on a galaxy they believe wronged them. All they want is a good fight.

[@gideonwalter6011]

[@hmmm348]

Orks are the one species in the universe that realized it's all just a big game at the end of the day.

[@ArtworkByBoneless]

I love Orks because they are the comic relief of the 40K universe. In such a dark/gothic setting, it is honestly nice to have a good laugh about the fact it's an army designed after Football Hooligans.

[@faceplantcharlie]

football hooligans and pirates!

Ork players are the best people in the hobby, I’ve never met an ork player that was mean or just played to win. Ork players are the kind of people who will get up and yell waaaaaagh in a tournament. And I play guard we have a lot of mathammer types of experienced players and a boat load of rookies in 8th edition.

[@Bacxaber]

You never see ork players who play to win because orks *can't* win. We're the weakest faction.

[@lucianaurelius2418]

Bacxaber if you run a pure 100% ork boy spam “witch takes the flavor away from the army” orks can be somewhat powerful and with your codex on the way you are probably going to be buffed a lot

[@Bacxaber]

I doubt that.

Orks are my favorite faction to play not only because I have lots of fun playing them, it is also fun for your opponent to play against. Although I haven't played them yet this edition, been waiting for that sweet codex. Also they are the best army for conversions, making them a lot of fun outside the games too.

[@naj0137]

Orks are simply the best. At my lokal store, everybody laughs so much when I play them. Especially when the tellyporta gun hits a character and marks him disappear :D bloody brilliant

[@madfjohn1]

Love how much custom you can get with them. Note one thing those wartracs are older than gorkamorka. Same with the warbuggy. They used the secont ed kit gorkamorka box with added bits for gorkamorka

[@friendlytalbot4050]

DoW II made me love orks. I never liked them much before, but after playing as orks in DoW II multiplayer, I just couldn't help but to fall in love with them and their insanely bad shooting.

[@joshdare4494]

I've been waiting for this for ages!...but that is such a tiny army! Sort it out guys.... NEEDS WAY MORE DAKKA INNIT!!

[@ConquererCraig]

I miss Miniwargamer Dan...

[@dayio1]

Aww thanks! Also, I'm sad at how poorly treated my orks are! Missing parts everywhere!

[@dourabbawinner]

@@dayio1 I miss your bat reps. You and Dave's old bat reps really are what got me interested in playing. I've played one game with borrowed models at a local hobby shop as orks and I had a blast!

[@matthiasthefaithful8227]

only 12K?! must be one of the SMALLEST "horde" armies you guys have.

[@dierare]

Seeing they have 10 or less of most of the modells, yes it is a small army.

[@mustacobra]

dan probaly took his own collection with him when he left, thats why there are some "holes" in army. like i remember that they had atleast 12 killa kans and 3 dewdreads

[@janfleckenstein1287]

I have more orks then 12k.... (actually 23k... 5k just boys) and im only playing for 8 years

[@Metalbirne]

I managed to build and paint 450 points of tyranids in 2,5 months. I guess it would take me roughly 5-6 years to complete 12000 points. I wouldn't call that small by any stretch. Then again, my tyranids are painted to a much higher standard than the orks seen in this video.

[@esaiasthetraveler6934]

We need dan back for this! :(

[@jt6581]

LMFAO the ork with a warhead as the hammerhead is brilliant!!

[@Droids945]

I love orks because they're... simple. I started with Space marines and initially liked the thought of " Yeah a uniform looking army! this looks cool! " But as time went on, I slowly got tired of painting the same old type of thing. Under a month ago I got my first Ork mini which is a Ork Mek. I put him together and painted him up in one night. I used variations of blues and blacks and so on and really enjoyed painting him. I have since acquired more Ork models and couldn't be happier with them. The simplicity and fun of these guys is really something else. To me they are light hearted in a dark sort of future.

[@JoeXTheXJuggalo1]

Back when I first started playing 40k in 5th edition I was chose Necrons but when I started my Ork army back in 7th edition I found my passion with them and my Ork army grew big real fast. When I started playing I had such a small Wee Waaagh and I was amazed at how big some people's Ork armies was like this 12k points of Ork. With a good bit of trading, an getting good deals on large amounts of used orks within 2 years my Ork army grew from a handful of models to 13.5k points of orks. Since then my Ork army has probably grew another 1-2k points. Ey didn chooz da waaagh lyf, da waaagh lyf choz mee!

[@garinevans8369]

I'm starting to really like orks because the lore about them makes me laugh sometimes.

[@TeutonicKnight92]

The plane was from a campaign... also where are the two -wound lootas?

[@ionceateapinecone]

Orks are the army you bring when you care more about having fun at the tournament than winning. Everyone loves an ork army, because no two are alike; orks have the most character of any faction and are the most kit-bashable. Don't forget: every kit GW puts out is an ork kit.

[@tj71520]

And in non tourney games, even non gw kits are ork kits

[@smashsprings]

I love orks because it’s the only army I can have fun with. I love the models and the lore everything about them is great!

[@sonnyhammond6273]

WAAAGH! Finally I hear the real Ork player on this channel!

[@giuhipzgi]

gotta love this dude! DAKADAKADAKA!!! sick army as well

[@angusgoodleaf9414]

For grins and giggles, been playing my orks in the local small scale tourny..... have had some of the most amusing games... one that went down to the final two figures in each respective army.... have always played orks... going on far too many years... but still worth it for actually borrowing your opponent's dice for the fight phase along with all that I brought... and then saying that is just the first volleys worth of rolls....

[@justinstorm1976]

Building the new Ork combat patrol with my son. He is 11, it's his first army and absolutely loving seeing him get excited over his army. Build a custom Ork fortress for his birthday. He love all of it.

[@juanvaldez7083]

I'm just glad I'm not the only one who lovingly strokes my miniatures.

That's an impressive number of Mek Gunz.

[@jimwhite2541]

What room on the tables when the entire Ork army is displayed? There is room for improvement. :P

[@luclin92]

my favorite thing about orks is the looted rule and all the ridiculous things people have converted into orky stuff, like tyranids and other super silly stuff.

[@lionanatorgaming3298]

I love Orks cus they just wanna have a good time and krump sum humies while they at it

[@jacklewis4436]

Because you can do anything that you want, they have the most variety.

I love me some death skullz, and orks in general because they are not uniform. Each one can be different.

Dont tell the bloodaxes... they love to emulate imperial oomans and be all uniform and such

[@MrWhite5150Duke]

Bikes, buggies, trukks, squigs, clunky patchwork cyborg fungal berserkers, looted everything, from tanks to asteroids! 40k have the best orks in fiction, imo. They fight cause it's fun, and they were born for Waaaaaaaargh! Back in 3rd edition, I had my metal head orks. Every battlefield was a mosh pit. I love the lore and the look of the orks.

[@mdb45424]

I want to see a looted monolith, :)

[@MrWhite5150Duke]

mdb45424 So do I! I'm waiting for someone talented to make a 3d print of gnarly looking looted necron tech, with orks wearing the remains of necron corpses and skulls as piecemeal armor.

[@levelsofconcern8306]

I'd want it more to be a monolith they forced open for a constant battle

[@jaanikaapa6925]

I adore the Gargant trashcan and the Dakota Ork bomba.

[@belmontofastora3665]

I love orkz because I get to throw 60+ dice in a fight phase when I have thrakka and a ton of boyz in a group of 30 fight something. Even vehicles take a good hit just from the sheer volume.

I am suprised that there is only 180 boyz,

[@bobman5653]

I currently run 6 squads of 30 grots, you do not know the meaning of fun until your poor weirdboy has a +8 to spell casts and is practically guaranteed to perils XD.

[@ZoBo_]

it's fine though, then you just have your painboyz do a bit of mid-battle brain surgery! s'all good! :D

I agree, 30 Killa Kans would be better than 3. Needs more Dakka. WAAAGH!

really nice showcase... but you need more boyz

[@GeargutzMekshop]

Slightly concerned that I have more than double the Studio's collection for Orks... with a few thousand points worth to spare.

[@Mravatarmech]

don't think it was chaos they were fighting, i think it was necrontyr (old necrons when c'tan controled them)

[@eyeofterror8281]

I love Orks, cause they are Orks

[@theinquisitionsparrot6749]

IS THAT A MOTHER F**KING GREAT GARGANT?!?

[@joshuaking1313]

Pls do a tau empire showcase

[@davedogge2280]

Haha this guys DAKKA-DAKKA noises ...

[@Kiltcalle]

The orks were created by the brain boyz AKA the old ones to fight against the necrontyr. So they were created about the same time as the eldar. They have an anarchistic nature which works well against the necrons as they don't understand the orks tactics at all. Read up on Imotekh the Stormlord who is one of the best tactical geniuses in 40k. He hates orks above all as he cannot understand their tactics.

[@piccoloktheforged]

One the funny songs two the randomness and three they’re orks any better reasons anyone

[@pkawesome6230]

Much love for Steve and miniwargaming, but this is the most disappointing "why I love" episode yet. After seeing the last 4 episodes of epic model counts and nice paint jobs, I couldn't wait to see the mighty WAAGH! of Miniwargaming. But the army you displayed in this episode does not even compare to the previously displayed models. Some models were not showcased in this episode, such as the painboys, characters, forge world models, other flyers, a proper deff dread or most importantly a Warboss. Additionally, Orks are the best army for conversions, and very little was showcased. What happened to Deffwatch, or the GorkaMorka models? I wanted to provide feedback on this episode because I love your ork content and always look forward to it, but this is the least satisfying ork video so far.

[@maxkennedy8075]

Why I love orks is there tech and consequently there aesthetic, any solider will tell you a double barreled gun would burn though ammo and be unreliable and heavy, orks however care only for the firepower Red should not make things faster, how does colour effect the power of an engine? Orks believe it so yes the red un’s really are faster

When you show the 10 tankbustas the main one you have in there isn't actually a tankbusta that is the Mad Dok Grotsnik model.
