the commander should be a chaos lord in termi armour, cos a)they look good, and b)they are good

Yeh, dose termy lordz is OK, but our mekz un' warbossez is bestest! Dunno why i'm talkin' in orkzez speak when mez called 'cron guy

Re: What should I collect next?
 

because my dear necron friend, we cant technically talk, so we are forced to mimic others. ..... * skins some one and makes them into pants * darth, i would go with 1 necron battle set and a lord, then if you want, get 2 flayed ones and have them act under the indipendant character rule. ( i was going to do that so i might beat the crap out of a friend who has the tau, but decided not to get the flayed ones based on how much money it was in the first place. )

Re: What should I collect next?
 

you should get two squads of orks (1 X 16 slugga boys 1 X 16 shoota boys) as well as a warboss woth three mega armoured nobs.

add 3 killa kans, e dreadnought and a land raider as well as those troop choices over again

Re: What should I collect next?
 

How would you get rules for a looted land raider?

Re: What should I collect next?
 

in the ork codex it gives rules to loot imperial tanks, use same stats, ork upgrades and only move 5/6 of the time properly

Oh, cool, but I bet they aren't that good in a battle,much better collecting necrons, they CAN hit a barn dooor (unlike some races) and are hard to kill

Re: What should I collect next?
 

I'd say start out with chaos marines as your starter army Darth,because chaos marines don't truly have any weaknesses to speak of,and their most basic troop is as solid as some other armies' elite units.Orks are actually an expert's choice in my opinion,because getting into CC when you have practically no shooting backup at all (a BS2 shoota boy isn't a very reliable now is it) can be tough,even with tons of units.Another thing that makes it a tad harder is that orks generally have low armor saves,meaning you probably won't even get an armor save roll for half your troops.

Necrons are also misunderstood as a starter army just because their units have a good profile and have the We'll be back! rule.But it's not so,as their tiny initiative of 2 means most of the time units that are fast and have power weapons,such as bloodletters,can tear into a 'cron army in no time flat without careful planning.Flayed Ones and Wraiths are good and all,but with most necrons only having 1W and no power weapons,it's hard to take down marines and other armies without great coordination between your units' attacks and shots.Because what good are units that can theoretically never be killed if they can't kill anything themselves?

Re: What should I collect next?
 

good point...

Necron_guy thinks - so thats why I lost all the time with them

Re: What should I collect next?
 

there weapons are good as they get a lot of shooting and theyre special rule means that their basic troop can take out a land raider if give enough time, and necrons last so long they will get that time, pariahs, flayed ones and immortals all pwn marines and heavy destroyers rip through them like a knife through ho butter
