The Best ways to play your Orks

Ork boyzWhen it comes to War Hammer 40,000 character, the orks are numerous and mean but at the same time they are not that easy to play. In order to play them efficiently, you will require some strategy as well as some knowledge. Playing the Orks in War Hammer 40,000 will be definitely a challenge as well as a funny and rewarding experience.

Attack From The Start

The main advantage of the orks is that they have the strongest units to start with, and these are the Slugga Boys mobs. They fight very well, have a large size and are much more strong than the Space Marine Scouts, the Chaos Cultists and the Eldar Guardians. You need to get the Slugga Boys for harassing the enemies at the time they still build their base.

You should also build plenty of Waagh Banners, because this is the basic way of reinforcing the troops or building fresh ones. The main benefit of these banners is that they will be defense towers as well. You can build them all over the place, because they are never too many!

The Best Strategy To Apply

You should always try to amass the troops, for the reason that the Orks work at their best with the bands of large mobs. You will be successful with the Shoota Boys and with the Slugga than with several Nobz. Apart from that, they will be less in numbers and you can pick them up on an individual basis.

One more good way of playing the Orks in War Hammer 40,000 is to reinforce the squads of Gretchin. They are fighters as well as builders and this way you can use them in all the possible ways. If you reinforce them, they will have more health points so they will die harder and, of course, they will have an increased building speed. The orks will work at their best in the close combats because this way they are able to use their power fists and use the nasty axes. If you bring them as closest as possible in combat, you will have a great playing experience with the orks in War Hammer 40,000.

You should never forget to upgrade the mobs. A growing army needs to be upgraded, not just grown up in figures. There will be a huge difference between a bunch of mobs and a whole army of upgraded ones.
