A month or so I signed up for a 40k tournament at GengisCon. I signed up before the tournament rules were posted and started working on my army. The official rules were just posted and now I see the mistake.
Points: 1750
Restrictions:
- Battalion Detachment ONLY. No other detachment may be selected, and armies must be battle forged.
- Matched play rules will be in effect, including adjustments made in Chapter Approved. Beta matched play rules will also be in effect.
- Models must have 4 colors of paint, minimum.
I was planning on building an Ork Dreadmob. Something like:
- Big Mek Buzzgob (Forgeworld)
- Gorkanaut
- Morkanaut
- 6 Killa Kans
- 3 Dreadnoughts
- 1 Meka Dread (Forgeworld)
Unfortunately with the event rules requiring a battalion that means I’m limited to 3 heavy support options so now I have to rethink the list. Shelve the models I just bought and put together & paint a new army. Here’s what I’m thinking:
Army List

Ork Mek Boss Buzzgob – 75 points
Weirdboy – 62 points
– ‘Eadbanger pyschic power

10 Grots – 30 points
10 Grots – 30 points

Heavy
Morkanaut – 340 points
Gorkanaut – 356 points
Meka Dread – 278 points

– Kustom Force Field
My Workload
There are 47 models in the army which doesn’t sound like a ton. But I only have 10 models (grots) that are 100% done. I have some boys & Weird Boy who are close to being done. But the rest need to be assembled and painted. It’s going to be a crazy month.
