Grand Alliance Destruction Orruk Warclans

Waaaaaaaaaagh!!

Lore Tactics General Tactics

The Ironjawz and Bonesplitterz are getting together for a big Waaaaaagh soup party.

Why Play Orruk Warclans

Combines the old Bonesplitterz and Ironjawz factions together under one battletome.

Pros

• Play as Ironjawz or Bonesplitterz or mix the two as the Great Waaagh!

Cons

• DATZ, A LOT OF GREEN PAINTS YA, GOT DERE BOSS (though made a lot easier with Ork Flesh and other green contrast paints)
• No Greenskinz though. They get the boot. You either go full armor or go full naked and nothing in-between. -Except they didn't! The big Waagh! faction needs to have all of the units be Orruks
