	*'''0-1 [[Ork_Boy#Stikk_Bommas\|Stikk Bommas]]''': Slightly different to their namesake ~~below~~. As well as being WS/BS3 like much of the rest of the Feral Orks army, they're limited to twenty men instead of thirty, which also means only two special weapons max, and they don't've access to Tankbusta Bombs. Each still brings a Slugga, CCW, and Frag and Krak Stikkbombz into battle, whilst two can pack either a Big Shoota, Rokkit Launcha, or Burna.		*'''0-1 [[Ork_Boy#Stikk_Bommas\|Stikk Bommas]]''': Slightly different to their namesake in the main list.

	*'''0-2 [[Ork_Brutes\|Brutes]]''': Now your ONLY source of mass WS4 outside of Nobz, at the cost of having ~~WS2~~ again. They can have a minimum squad size of five, but you'll want more than that, and can have up to twenty pseudo-Nobz, all armed with Sluggas and Choppas, whilst two can have special weapons.		*'''0-2 [[Ork_Brutes\|Brutes]]''': Now your ONLY source of mass WS4 outside of Nobz, at the cost of having BS2 again.

	*'''[[Trappa]]s''': Also have a minimum unit size of five like the Brutes above, but unlike them've a maximum squad size of only ten. They can have a mixture of Shootas and Sluggas & Choppas, at WS/BS3, and can all take Flash Furs to swagger around in.

	**'''Set Traps''': Only works if you're fighting on a battlefield using the '''Jungle Fighting''' Special Rules, so good luck with that. If you are though, each unit of Trappas nets you up to three Booby Traps for some numbers of points, which can be either cheap S3 AP6 Punji Pits, or expensive S4 AP5 Fire Bombs or S7 AP3 Bang Traps. All of them ignore Cover Saves, force units that suffer at least one casualty to make a Pinning check, and set up using the same deployment rules as Catachan Booby Traps.		**'''Set Traps''': Only works if you're fighting on a battlefield using the '''Jungle Fighting''' Special Rules, so good luck with that.

	==== General Overview ====		==== General Overview ====

	Compared to the likes of 9th Edition, Ork Boyz in 3rd Edition're only Human Strength, so you're not going to hit as hard in melee as you might be used to, though the Choppas Special Rule does help in this regard. Exceptions to note're Skarboyz and Cyborks, who get S4 standard, and Da Vulcha Skwad, who get it on the charge, but those're only three units, so you can't rely on them too heavily to fill the [[-4_Strength\|Strength 4]] gap in your heart.		Compared to the likes of 9th Edition, Ork Boyz in 3rd Edition're only Human Strength, so you're not going to hit as hard in melee as you might be used to, though the Choppas Special Rule does help in this regard.

	Also, since many of your heavier force elements, such as Battlewagons, Looted Wagons, and Big Gunz, are all limited in terms of how many you can take in an army, large tank formations or artillery batteries aren't really possible. Dreadnoughts and Killer Kans have no such restrictions, however, so a Dreadmob's still viable.

	You'll get more bang for your buck with your dakka than in Codex: Orks with BS3, but conversely your punches'll be less likely to hit home with WS3. You also aren't quite as mobile, with only one vehicle and an unreliable one at that, but you do get cavalry, animal packs, and monsters to make up for it. And don't forget psychic powers and drugs.

	*'''<span style='font-size:125%'>M</SPAN>IXED <span style='font-size:125%'>A</SPAN>RMOUR''': It's entirely possible for single mobs of Orks to've multiple different types of armour and thus Armour Saves in them, so the normal casualty rules're slightly altered. Basically, when an Ork player's rolling Armour Saves, they use use the best Armour Save in the mob as long as that Armour Save's the majority, else the next highest's used if it's the majority instead, and remove casualties from the members of the mob with the Armour Save used. The idea being that the enemy'll aim for the bigger ones first.		*'''<span style='font-size:125%'>M</SPAN>IXED <span style='font-size:125%'>A</SPAN>RMOUR''': It's entirely possible for single mobs of Orks to've multiple different types of armour and thus Armour Saves in them, so the normal casualty rules're slightly altered.

	**So, if a Warboss in ~~Mega~~ Armour's joined by his bodyguard of Nobz in ~~'Eavy~~ Armour and they outnumber him, the Warboss can't be attacked until the number of Nobz with 2+ saves's equal to the number of Warbosses with 4+ saves. In the same way, if a Warboss in 'Eavy Armour's joined by his bodyguard of Nobz in Mega Armour and they outnumber him, the Warboss still can't be attacked until the number of Nobz's just one. This's a massive boon for your characters, as it means they can't normally be targetted until you whittle down their escorts, increases their survivability immensely.		**So, if a Warboss in 'Eavy Armour's joined by his bodyguard of Nobz in Ork Armour and they outnumber him, the Warboss can't be attacked until the number of Nobz with 6+ saves's equal to the number of Warbosses with 4+ saves.

	*'''<span style='font-size:125%'>O</SPAN>RK <span style='font-size:125%'>M</SPAN>OB <span style='font-size:125%'>R</SPAN>ULE!''': Orks're more resistant to the effects of Morale and Pinning as long as they've got numbers on their side. Mobs role for these tests as normal, but if they fail then they immediately roll 2D6 and compare the number rolled to the number of Ork models in the mob (so not Gretchin). If the number rolled's equal to or less than the number of Orks left, the failure's ignored. By this rule, Ork mobs of twelve or more're essentially considered to always pass these tests, so your thirty-strong mobs aren't going anywhere in a hurry.		*'''<span style='font-size:125%'>O</SPAN>RK <span style='font-size:125%'>M</SPAN>OB <span style='font-size:125%'>R</SPAN>ULE!''': Orks're more resistant to the effects of Morale and Pinning as long as they've got numbers on their side.
