Product Information

These new vehicle rules entirely replace the old ones, enabling players to field more vehicles more effectively and at a cheaper points cost. Waaagh! Ghazghkull - A Codex: Orks Supplement (7th Edition), pp. 12-13, 16-17, 19-20, 30, 67, 69, 80, 84, 142-144 Deff Rolla - A deff rolla is a great spiked roller that brings the colossal weight of the Battlewagon to bear on anything in its way. The Predator Assault Tank is based on the Rhino armoured carrier, but has improved armour as well as additional armament. Includes the Vehicle Data Record required to field this vehicle. As Tony has gone to all the trouble of providing a special weapon for his Battlewagon we have decided to work out a special Data Record for it.

The Ork Battlewagon from the Warhammer 40k range provides a highly detailed vehiclefor your Orks collection. Get your Boyz into battle in style with a Battlewagon, the last word in mobile fortresses for any discerning Warboss. As well as being an amazing transport choice, you can also take loads of weapons options so that you can shoot, smash, and crush your enemies as you get your Boyz to exactly where they need to be. At the moment the list has four Battlewagons, and without getting another Warboss and Meganobz unit, then there won’t be anymore added. You’ve got plenty of up close killy death, though you need ranged support and that’s where Lootas come in. People say that Lootas are best in units of 5 or units of 15, this is because if 5 run off it’s a low investment and unit of 15 need to lose 5 models before they are not fearless, and then they are leadership 10. Because I am a shepherd and not a sheep (and maybe a tad awkward) I prefer units of 9. My reason for this odd choice is because I’ve used units of 5 and really they need good dice rolls for shooting to have a decent impact. I’ve used units of 15 and they cost some serious points and you do not need 45 shots to blow up a vehicle. I’ve found units of 9 Lootas to be the sweet spot, they fire enough shots to get the job done, they don’t cost billions of points and 3 Lootas need to die to force a morale test, if the Lootas walk away you’re losing 90 points, which isn’t too bad. So three unit of nine Lootas will be spot on. A very important unit/model in a Battlewagon list is a Big Mek. Give him a KFF and keep it simple all for 85 points. If there’s points to burn later, then they we’ll go on the Big Mek. Currently the list stands at 1,945. You could take 3 x 2 units of Warbuggies with twin-linked rokkits, I will note that this is equal amount of kill points to Deffkoptas anyway (and the same cost).This month's special free insert is the vehicle targeting grid and vehicle turning template to accompany this article

Special Rules for Epic Ork armies, including Warbands and Warbosses; Mekaniaks; Malfunctions and the Kult of Speed A Battlewagon armed with a Supa-Kannon sacrifices all its other weaponry to mount this huge artillery piece. Most often this weapon is nothing more sophisticated than a looted Imperial Earthshaker Cannon. Among the Ork klanz, the Goffs and Evil Sunz dislike the very idea of artillery and rarely make use of a Supa-Kannon, preferring weapons that allow them to more directly enter the fray. For their part, the Bad Moons, Blood Axes and Deathskulls greatly enjoy the sheer power of artillery pieces and have been known to unleash the power of a Supa-Kannon upon the foe. Our goal is to build upon and consolidate the great work already being done by other community members across various forums, reddit threads, and hobby blogs, and bring together a comprehensive library of all these useful Build Instruction booklets. New models painted by the Studio staff, some more terminators from Frances Ellyard, plus David Soper's Nurgle Predator, winner of the 1990 golden Demon Slayer Sword

Like other Ork vehicles a Battlewagon continues to be kustomised and grows to become an ever larger contraption as its owners add more weapons, extra fighting gantries and new engines, until a Battlewagon has grown into a true Battle Fortress. A Battle Fortress is a massive Battlewagon, expanded to the size and armament capacity of an Imperial Guard super-heavy tank. Such vehicles are favorite mounts for the most powerful of Ork Warbosses. So what’s the best way to setup a Battlewagon? Well you must always keep in mind that it’s a transport vehicle and it needs to keep moving, so no larger gun options i.e kill kannon or zzap gun. The only ranged weapon you need is a big shoota. Reason is the Battlewagon has no weapon, so any weapon destroyed result turns into immobilised, bad times.

Beast Snaggas are all about the squigs, from Zodgrod’s living wig to the giant tramplasquigs that lug their Kill Rigs into battle. Squighog Boyz are partial to a medium variety of squig, all the better to blitz headlong at whoever they’re fighting and duff them up on the charge. This set, again available on its own for the first time, contains five models – three regular boys, a Nob on a Smasha Squig, and a Bomb Squig (whose grot rider appears not to appreciate the imminent explosion he’s riding towards, and indeed on top of).When a unit disembarks from a TRANSPORT model, set it up on the battlefield so that it is wholly within 3" of that TRANSPORT model and not within Engagement Range of any enemy models. If, for any reason, a disembarking model cannot be set up, that model’s unit cannot disembark. Kannon - A Kannon is a large-bore artillery piece, a crude but effective weapon that fires anti-tank shells or fused fragmentation rounds. RPJ gives that extra 1″, it doesn’t sound a lot, but when you’ve got the proper deffrolla kit on your Battlewagons then it’s going to help. Plus that little bit extra will help for an army which needs to be in assault.

Ok, saying pray for first turn isn’t the most tactical thing to say, but if you do get second turn, try and setup refused flank if possible and still scout the Koptas, though not towards the enemy – the 3+ cover save from turbo boost will keep the Koptas alive, act as distraction units and even if the enemy doesn’t shoot them (because Koptas are hidden) then it will keep them on their toes. Low velocity heavy gun (85mm) equipped with explosive shells, multiple Xenos pattern light autocannon (ref "Big Shoota") After years of collecting, buying and selling, building and painting, we realised that we had amassed a small library of Build Instructions, Assembly Instructions and User Guides for various Games Workshop products. Ok, I know this isn’t too far from a normal Battlewagon list, the core is pretty much the same, Battlewagons with Loota support. While this is a list building exercise, it also shows more importantly how to setup those Battlewagons correctly, I’ve lost count how many lists I see which have multiple big shootas and kill kannons etc on the Battlewagons.Units that disembark from a TRANSPORT model that made a Normal move this phase count as having made a Normal move themselves; they cannot move further during this phase. Such a unit also cannot declare a charge in the same turn, but can otherwise act normally in the remainder of the turn. Ork Battlewagons are as diverse in construction and weapons complement as the Greenskins who create them. A Battlewagon always possesses a heavy chassis, sometimes salvaged from other suitable vehicles such as the Imperium's tanks or heavy armoured transports. Others will be custom-built vehicles created from scratch by an Ork Mek and his assistants. Mike McVey takes you through the painting details for this month's miniatures, with expert hints and tips on how to achieve great results with your models
