Editing Warhammer 40,000/3rd Edition Tactics/Orks/Feral Orks (section)

=== Troops ===

*'''[[Ork_Boy#Huntas|Huntas]]''': Your bread and butter main Troops choice for Feral Orks, thirty-strong with WS/BS3 and Shootas. Only two can take special weapons, even though there's thirty of them.

*'''[[Ork_Boy#Wildboyz|Wildboyz]]''': Savage cave-Orks running across a ravaged battlefield towards a [[Warlord_Titan|titan]] with stone weapons. No guns whatsoever to make use of their WS/BS3, just Choppas and Hand Weapons such as Clubs or Daggers. Must be accompanied by a Nob, and a keen eye'll notice that the mob's Nob accompanies them, instead of upgrading from one of them, giving them a maximum size of thirty-one.

*'''[[Gretchin|Gretchin Mobz]]''': You get one Slaver and between ten and thirty Gretchin armed with [[Shootas'an_Dakkas#Grot_Blasta|Grot Blastas]], which also don't have a profile in your [[Meme|sacred text]]. In this addition Gretchin share the same low BS of Orks, so you don't take these guys for their accuracy. Instead they have some nifty Special Rules to buff your Boyz out;
**'''Living Shields''': Does what it says on the tin, and gives Ork mobs behind them a 5++ Cover Save, with each save, successful or not, resulting in one of the Gretchin models being removed.
**'''Better Footing''': If a Gretchin mob's in Difficult Terrain, and a non-Mega Armoured Ork mob moves through the same Difficult Terrain, the Orks may use the Grots as stepping stones and re-roll their movement dice.
**'''Mine Clearance''': And last but by no means least, again self-explanatory. If a Gretchin mob moves into a Minefield, roll 3D6 and remove that many Gretchin and the Minefield, but if there aren't enough Gretchin models to meet the number rolled, the Minefield remains and the Gretchin mob's still wiped out anyway. They give a 5++ Cover Save more easily and reliably than a Kustom Force Field, and you aren't reliant on a single model to provide it.

*'''[[Ork_Boy#Madboyz|Madboyz]]''': Orks that've lost what little grip on reaity they had to begin with. A minimum size of five models makes them the smallest squad you can take as Troops, and they can bring a Pigdok with them, the only way to get one outside of the Warboss's Bodyguard. WS/BS3 like everything else.
**'''Madboyz''': Due to their aforementioned craziness, these guys're '''Fearless''', and can't '''Mob Up''' with anyone other than other Madboyz. If they're not actively engaged in an assault, they also've to roll 1D6 at the beginning of each Ork turn, and one a 1, they've become... Disturbed.
**'''Madboyz Disturbed Behaviour Table''': You've got four possible outlet behaviours for disturbed Madboy, determined by another 1D6. On a 1, they become paranoid and fight amongst themselves, with each Madboy making a single attack against the mob as a whole. On a 2-3, they argue amongst themselves as to whether a cloud looks like Gork or Mork, and count as Pinned. On a 3-4 (I think they mean 4-5, but I don't have any FAQ that says otherwise, so as written both effects trigger on an unlucky 3, and nothing happens at all on a 5, thanks [[Games_Workshop|GeeDubs]]), they become un-Orkishly terrified, with the unit falling back and automatically regrouping at the end of the move. And on a 6, they become uber-Orkishly brave, letting them move +1D6" in the Movement phase as long as it's directly towards the nearest enemy unit.
