Editing Dred Mob (section)

== On the Tabletop ==

=== 5th-7th Edition ===

The Dred Mob are yet another mechanised Ork sub-list, this time from [[Forgeworld]] rather than [[Chapter Approved]], with iterations from [[Warhammer_40,000/5th_Edition_Tactics/Orks/Dred_Mob|5th]] [[Warhammer_40,000/6th_Edition_Tactics/Orks/Dred_Mob|through]] [[Warhammer_40,000/7th_Edition_Tactics/Orks/Dred_Mob|7th edition]]. Always more of a shopping catalogue than a codex, it was full to the brim with nice, expensive [[Imperial Armour]] models, and light on any cheapy infantry you can port over from your main army, [[Looted|not that anyone in their right mind actually bought the models]].

A Dred Mob could take [[Big Mek]]s, [[Painboy|Painboss]]es, and [[Mega-Dread#Meka-Dread|Kustom Meka-Dread]]s as HQ; [[Burna Boyz]], [[Cyborks|Cybork Slasha]]s, and [[Junka#Mekboy_Junka|Mekboy Junka]]s as Elites; [[Ork_Boy|Spanna Boy]]z, [[Gretchin|Gretchin Scavenger]]s, and [[Deff Dred]]s as Troops; [[Dakkajet]]s, [[Fighta]]s, [[Deffkoptas]], [[Warbuggies]], [[Wartrakk]]s, [[Killa Kan]]s, [[Grot Tanks]], and [[Warkoptas]] as Fast Attack; and [[Bomma#Burna-Bommer|Burna-Bomma]]s, [[Bomma#Blitza-Bommer|Blitza-Bomma]]s, [[Lootas]], [[Big Trakks]], [[Looted Wagon]]s, [[Battlewagon|Lifta Wagon]]s, and [[Mega-Dread]]s as Heavy Support. They also had access to the Special Character [[Mek Boss Buzgob]], who comes in full [[Techpriest]] cosplay with an [[Orky]] Servo-Harness that gives +1d3A on the charge, and has a Warlord Trait which makes surrounding Deff Dreds scoring.

=== 8th Edition ===

With Vigilus Defiant, the battlefields of 40k can once again resound to the relentless stomping of metal cans with anger-management issues, as the Dred Mob's now a Specialist Detachment, redubbed as the Dread Waaagh! For 1CP at the beginning of the game, you can give one of your Big Meks Da Souped-Up Shokka Shiny Gubbin, a Supa-[[Warp_Weapons#Shokk_Attack_Gun|Shokk Attack Gun]] with 2d6 shots rather than 1d6, and then every turn pay another 2CP to fire twice with the '''Kustom Ammo''' Stratagem. Oh, and also another Stratagem and a Warlord Trait, but everybody skims over them to get to the good stuff.

If you must indulge them, the Dread Waaagh! also lets you pick from the Stratagem '''Mek Connections''', which lets a '''Dread Waaagh!''' unit get a Kustom Job from a [[Mekboy Workshop]] on a 4+ instead of a 6+, and the Warlord Trait '''Dread Mek''', which lets a Big Mek restore one extra Wound when repairing a '''Dread Waaagh!''' unit. Look, we told you nobody uses them, what did you expect?

=== 9th Edition ===

As of the Grand Tournament 2020 rules, Specialist Detachments are no longer allowed in tournaments, meaning no more Souped-Up Shokkas to delete tanks from across the board. The Dread Waaagh!'s otherwise still totally viable in non-tournament Matched Play though.
