The infamous war cry of the Orks is known and feared throughout the galaxy. When it echoes across the battlefield, bellowed from countless toothy maws, it galvanises the Orks and riles them into a raucous state of excited aggression. Friendly ORKS units with this ability can: ▪ Re-roll **advance rolls**. ▪ Become **riled up**, as stated in other rules. While a unit is **riled up**: ▪ That unit has 5+ **InSv**. ▪ That unit’s ranged attacks have \[ASSAULT\]. ▪ When that unit is selected to make an **advance move**, that **advance move** does not prevent that unit from being **eligible to declare a charge**. **War Cry (Once per battle, per army):** At the start of the Command phase, you can use this ability. If you do, friendly ORKS units with the **Waaagh!** ability are **riled up** until the end of the next turn. ### Da Boss Whether capable of kunnin’ strategy or favouring something far less complicated, the biggest Ork tends to have a voice as aggressive and brutal as the rest of him. His bellows can be heard over the thickest fighting and his reputation ensures the ladz do as they’re told. At the start of the battle round, if a model with this ability is your WARLORD, gain 1CP. ### Unstable Energies Ork psykers – Weirdboyz and their unsavoury ilk – release the painful build-up of Waaagh! energy in sudden discharges of power, usually with spectacularly lethal results. ORKS PSYKER units with this ability have a **psyker level** of 1 or higher, specified in that unit’s abilities. Each **psychic ability** has a **psychic level** of 1 or higher, specified in that ability’s name. In a battle round, a friendly ORKS PSYKER unit can use a number of **psychic abilities** whose total **psychic level** does not exceed that PSYKER unit’s **psyker level**. **Example:** In a battle round, a **psyker level 3** PSYKER unit could use three **psychic level 1**abilities, or one **psychic level 1** ability and one **psychic level 2** ability, or one **psychic level 3** ability. ### Special Move Types The following are special **move types** that certain or all of your units are eligible to make. PULSE JET MOVE **MAXIMUM DISTANCE:** Pulse roll + 18" **ELIGIBLE IF:** As stated in the rule allowing this **move type**. **EFFECT:** Your unit moves as described in Moving (Core Rules, 03). **BEFORE MOVING:** ▪ Make a **pulse roll** by rolling one D6. **WHILE MOVING:** ▪ Ignore all vertical distance for the purposes of how far your unit has moved. ▪ Your unit can move through all types of model. ▪ Your unit can move horizontally and vertically through all categories of **terrain feature**. **AFTER MOVING:** ▪ Your unit must be **unengaged**. ▪ Until the end of the turn, your unit is not **eligible to declare a charge** or **start an action**. ▪ Until the start of your next turn, attacks that target your unit have -1 to **hit rolls**. ASSAULT DISEMBARK MOVE 18.06 **SET-UP DISTANCE:** 3" **ELIGIBLE IF:** ▪ Embarked within a TRANSPORT on the battlefield ▪ Did not embark within that TRANSPORT this phase ▪ That TRANSPORT has not made an **advance**/**fall-back move** this phase **EFFECT:** Set up as described in Set Up (03.02). **WHILE MOVING:** Set up each model wholly within the **set-up distance** of that TRANSPORT. 48 stratagems ## Detachments Each detachment's own rules, then the stratagems it unlocks. ## Blitz Brigade 3 stratagems ### Unstoppable Momentum Like mobile armoured fortresses, little can stop the crushing impetus of the Orks’ hulking wagons. ▪ Friendly WAGON units can re-roll **charge rolls**. ▪ When a friendly WAGON unit is selected to make an **advance move**, that unit can change **advance rolls** to a 6. 1 CP Either turn ### KEEP IT RUNNIN' Fight The crews of the Orks’ hulking transports maintain a high level of readiness for when the ladz get bored and rapidly clamber back on board to look for a new fight. When End of the Fight phase. Target One friendly **unengaged** ORKS INFANTRY unit that was **eligible to fight** this phase and is wholly within 6" of a friendly TRANSPORT unit that INFANTRY unit is able to embark within. Effect Your INFANTRY unit embarks within that TRANSPORT unit. 1 CP Your turn ### READIED BRAWLERS Movement Bursting from assault hatches, pounding down boarding ramps or leaping from handholds, this thuggish transport’s fighters are quick to pile out. When Your Movement phase, when a friendly WAGON unit ends a **normal move**. Target That WAGON unit. Effect Units embarked within your unit can make an **assault disembark move**. 1 CP Your turn ### IMPENDING KRUNCH Charge Having several tons of metal covered in blood, rust and spikes bearing down on them can shake the resolve of the most stoic warriors. When Your Charge phase, when a friendly WAGON unit ends a **charge move**. Target That WAGON unit. Effect Each enemy unit **engaged** with your unit makes a **battle-shock roll**, with -1 to that **battle-shock roll**. ## Brute Bosses 0 stratagems ### ’Ard as Nails The largest Orks have risen to their position through strength, savagery and being harder than anyone else. When a friendly WARBOSS model is **destroyed**, if this unit has not been **selected to fight** this phase, roll one D6, with +1 to the roll if your unit is **riled up**: ▪ On a 3+, do not remove this WARBOSS model from the battlefield. When this unit has fought, or at the end of the phase (whichever comes first), this WARBOSS model is removed from the battlefield. ## Bully Boyz 3 stratagems ### Displays of Savagery Nobz have a position of dominance to maintain, and do so in vicious eruptions of violence. Friendly MEGANOBZ / NOBZ units’ melee attacks have \[Sustained Hits 1\]. 1 CP Either turn ### TOO ARROGANT TO DIE Fight With bone-headed arrogance, Nobz will carry on killing before their deaths finally dawn on them. When Fight phase, when an enemy unit targets a friendly MEGANOBZ / NOBZ unit. Target That MEGANOBZ / NOBZ unit. Effect When a model in your unit is **destroyed**, if your unit has not been **selected to fight** this phase, roll one D6, with +1 to that roll if your unit is **riled up**: ▪ On a 4+, do not remove that model from the battlefield.

Effect Your unit’s attacks can: ▪ Re-roll **hit rolls** of 1. ▪ If your unit is **riled up**, re-roll **hit rolls**. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### HULKING BRUTES Shooting The thick armour and thicker skulls of Nobz make them a daunting prospect to gun down.

Effect Ranged attacks that target your unit with a **S** greater than your unit’s **T** have -1 to **wound rolls**. \[+1CP\] Or: Ranged attacks that target your unit have -1 to **wound rolls**. ## Da Big Hunt 3 stratagems ### Da Hunt is On Beast Snaggas fanatically hunt the biggest targets and are experts in finding their weak spots. Friendly BEAST SNAGGA units’ attacks that target a MONSTER / VEHICLE unit have +1 **AP**. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### WHERE D'YA FINK YOU'RE GOING? Movement Beast Snagga victims often make a break for it before the Orks have tired of fighting. Hooked, impaled or ridden down, few survive such flight. When Your opponent’s Movement phase, when an enemy unit is selected to make a **fall-back move**, if that enemy unit is **engaged** with a friendly BEAST SNAGGA unit. Target That BEAST SNAGGA unit. Effect When an enemy unit **engaged** with your unit is selected to make a **fall-back move**, that enemy unit must use the **desperate escape** mode. If that enemy unit is a MONSTER / VEHICLE unit, that enemy unit makes three additional **hazard rolls** for each BEAST SNAGGA unit it is **engaged** with, with -1 from those **hazard rolls** if that enemy unit is **battle-shocked**. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### GOADED INTO ACTION Shooting Should attempts to obliterate the Beast Snaggas from afar fail, it is often the foe’s last mistake as the hunters turn their baleful attention on them. When Your opponent’s Shooting phase, when an enemy unit has shot. Target One friendly **unengaged** BEAST SNAGGA unit that lost a wound as a result of those attacks. Effect Your unit can make a **surge move** of up to D6". If your unit is **riled up**, it can re-roll that D6. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### INSTINCTIVE HUNTERS Fight With a keen eye for tracking their prey, Beast Snaggas will circle around to ambush the luckless gitz from another angle. When End of your opponent’s Fight phase. Target One friendly **unengaged** BEAST SNAGGA unit within 6" of a battlefield edge. Effect Place your unit in **strategic reserves**. ## Dread Mob 3 stratagems ### Try Dat Button! Inviting Mek-wired buttons offer varied and erratic lethality. In your Shooting phase or the Fight phase, when a friendly ORKS WALKER unit (excluding TITANIC units) is **selected to attack**, you can use this ability. If you do, roll either one D6 or two D6 (keep re-rolling duplicate results). This unit’s attacks have the relevant rule(s): **TRY DAT BUTTON!** D6 RESULT **1-2** +1 **A** **3-4** +2 **S** **5-6** +1 **AP** If you rolled two D6, when this unit has attacked, this unit makes one **hazard roll**. 1 CP Either turn ### CRAZED RAMPAGE Fight Even horrific damage will not prevent many Ork combat walkers from crunching and stomping their enemies in a final fugue of psychotic aggression. When Fight phase, when an enemy unit targets a friendly ORKS WALKER unit (excluding TITANIC units). Target That ORKS WALKER unit. Effect When a model in your unit is **destroyed**, if your unit has not been **selected to fight** this phase, roll one D6, with +3 to the result if your unit has DEFF DREAD: ▪ On a 4+, do not remove that model from the battlefield. When your unit has fought, or at the end of the phase (whichever comes first), that model is removed from the battlefield. 1 CP Your turn ### DREAD POWER Movement Fuelled by the pilot’s obsession or psychosis - and powered up by varied erratic gubbinz - it is little wonder that a Kan’s stomping rampages are constantly reignited. When Your Movement phase. Target One friendly ORKS WALKER unit. Effect Your unit is **riled up** until the start of your next turn. 1 CP Your turn ### STOMPING JUGGERNAUT Movement · Charge A pilot’s single-mindedness and his walker’s durable form mean few obstacles can impede its relentless stomping advance. When Your Movement / Charge phase, when a friendly ORKS WALKER unit is **selected to move** or **declares a charge**. Target That ORKS WALKER unit. Effect Your unit has MOBILE. ## Flyboyz 3 stratagems ### Skyborne Loons When attacking en masse, crazed and excitable Flyboyz unleash torrential quantities of dakka. ▪ Friendly ORKS AIRCRAFT units do not count towards the combined points value of your **strategic reserves** units. ▪ While a friendly ORKS AIRCRAFT / DEFFKOPTAS unit is **riled up**, this unit’s ranged attacks have +1 to **hit rolls**. 1 CP Either turn ### FLYIN' HEADBUTT Any phase Some Ork pilots, out of bullets and out of luck, brighten up considerably when they realise their own aircraft is a deadly weapon in its own right. When Any phase, when a friendly ORKS AIRCRAFT unit is **destroyed**, before rolling for any **Deadly Demise**. Target That ORKS unit. Effect Your unit does not have the **Deadly Demise** ability. Select one enemy unit within 12" of your unit and roll eight D6: ▪ For each 4+, that enemy unit suffers 1 **mortal wound**.

Effect When your unit’s ranged attacks target a FLY unit, those attacks can re-roll **hit rolls**. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### WHIRLIGIG EVASION Movement Enemy attempts to hunt Deffkoptas down can be stymied by nimble aerial evasion, usually accompanied by a crude hand gesture in the foe’s direction. When Your opponent’s Movement phase, when an enemy unit ends a move. Target One friendly **unengaged** DEFFKOPTAS unit within 8" of that enemy unit. Effect Your unit can make a **normal move** of: ▪ Up to D6". ▪ Or: If your unit is **riled up**, up to 6". ## Green Tide 3 stratagems ### Mob-handed Brutality In the massive fights that Orks enjoy, the only way to ensure a slice of the action is to fight harder. ▪ Friendly BOYZ units’ melee attacks have \[Sustained Hits 1\]. ▪ If a friendly ORKS INFANTRY unit made a **charge move** this turn, that unit’s melee attacks have \[Lethal Hits: non- Monster/Vehicle\]. 1 CP Either turn ### UNBRIDLED CARNAGE Charge · Fight When da Boyz get stuck into the foe, the carnage is wonderful to behold, at least for all their mates. When Fight phase, when a friendly BOYZ unit that made a **charge move** this turn is **selected to fight**. Target That BOYZ unit. Effect Your unit’s melee attacks have +1 **A**. 1 CP Your turn ### MOB MENTALITY Command With volleys of wagers, threats, insults, dung and the occasional rock, large mobs bolster the spirits of others in the most Orky ways possible.

Effect Your unit has +2 to **advance rolls**. ## Kaptin Killers Boarding Actions 4 stratagems ### Comin’ Through Very little can prevent a hulking Ork from smashing a path through a voidship’s decks to wherever he is trying to go. It is generally considered deeply unwise bordering on suicidal to try... In your Movement phase, Desperate Escape tests taken for ORKS models from your army are automatically passed and each time an ORKS unit from your army makes a **Normal**, **Advance** or **Fall Back move**, it can move through other models as if they were not there, provided those other models have a lower Toughness characteristic than it. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Your turn ### LOOT ON THE MOVE Movement Not only does ripping a door hatch right off its hinges allow for ease of progress, but the resultant large slab of bulletproof metal can make a handy temporary shield. When Your Movement phase, just after an ORKS unit from your army opens a Hatchway. Target That ORKS unit. Effect Until the end of the battle, that Hatchway cannot be closed. Until the end of the turn, each time an attack targets your unit, worsen the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack by 1. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Your turn ### PILE THROUGH Movement Orks react to the sudden availability of a good scrap with immediate and enthusiastic aggression. When Your Movement phase, just after an ORKS unit from your army opens a Hatchway. Target That ORKS unit. Effect Until the end of the turn, your unit has the **Fights First** ability. 1 CP Epic Deed Your turn ### PIT FIGHTER Charge This Warboss is a terror of the fighting pits, single-mindedly battering his way through lesser foes or simply sweeping them aside as he carves a path towards his true quarry. When Your Charge phase. Target One WARBOSS model from your army. Effect Until the end of the phase, your model is eligible to declare a charge in a turn in which it Fell Back. 1 CP Battle Tactic Opponent's turn ### CORNERED AND KRUMPED Movement It is no easy thing to disentangle from a mob of ferocious Orks and retreat in good order, especially when cornered by them within the claustrophobic confines of a voidship. When Your opponent’s Movement phase, just after an enemy unit is selected to Fall Back. Target One ORKS unit from your army that is within Engagement Range of that enemy unit. Effect Your unit can fight as if it were the Fight phase, but when doing so, models in your unit can only target that enemy unit (and only if it is an eligible target) and each time a model in your unit makes an attack, an unmodified Hit roll of 6 is required to score a hit. ## Kult of Speed 3 stratagems ### Adrenaline Junkies After smashing into the foe at full tilt, a Speed Freek will pull hairpin turns to do it all again. ▪ Friendly WARBIKERS units have BATTLELINE. ▪ When a friendly SPEED FREEKS unit is selected to make an **advance**/**fall-back move**: ▪ That unit’s ranged attacks have \[Assault\] until the end of the turn. ▪ That move does not prevent that unit from being **eligible to declare a charge**. 1 CP Your turn ### DELICIOUS EATING SQUIGS Movement Besides more dangerous fare, Squig-lobbing buggies fire edible Squigs for a price, guaranteed to enliven any Ork if he can eat it before it eats him. When Your Movement phase. Target One friendly RUKKATRUKK SQUIGBUGGIES unit. Effect Select any number of friendly ORKS INFANTRY units within 3" of your unit. Each selected unit **heals** 3 wounds. 1 CP Your turn ### DAKKASTORM Shooting Often all an enemy will see of a Kult of Speed is a dust cloud as they speed by, all guns blazing. When Your Shooting phase, when a friendly SPEED FREEKS unit is **selected to shoot**. Target That SPEED FREEKS unit. Effect Your unit’s ranged attacks have \[Sustained Hits 1\]. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### SPEEDIEST FREEKS Shooting Speed Freeks are often just blurs of vehicular mayhem that prove difficult to land a blow on.

Effect Ranged attacks that target your unit fail on an unmodified hit roll of 1-3. ## Madcap Meks 1 stratagems ### Unpredictable Genius Meks haul all manner of weird bullets, unstable power cells and kustomised extras to battle. In your Shooting phase, when all of a friendly BIG MEK / MEK GUNZ / MORKANAUT / WAZBOM BLASTAJET unit’s ranged attacks target a single enemy unit, roll one D6: **UNPREDICTABLE GENIUS** D6 RESULT **1** **Dat’s Weird:** The target unit has 4+ **InSv** until your unit has shot. **2-3** **Hop Splat:** Select one other enemy unit within 3" of the target.

Each time an attack targets an ORKS unit from your army (excluding GROTS units), if the Strength characteristic of that attack is greater than the Toughness characteristic of that ORKS unit, subtract 1 from the Wound roll. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Your turn ### PILE THROUGH Movement Orks react to the sudden availability of a good scrap with immediate and enthusiastic aggression. When Your Movement phase, just after an ORKS unit from your army opens a Hatchway. Target That ORKS unit. Effect Until the end of the turn, your unit has the **Fights First** ability. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Your turn ### RAMBOYZ RAMPAGE Movement These ramship-riding Orks emulate the actions of their warship by barrelling full-tilt towards the enemy while roaring like lunatics then crashing into them head-on. When Your Movement phase. Target One BOYZ unit from your army that has not been selected to move this phase. Effect Until the end of the turn, your unit is eligible to declare a charge in a turn in which it Advanced and each time your unit Advances, do not make an Advance roll; instead, until the end of the phase, add 6" to the Move characteristic of models in your unit. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Your turn ### EAGER TO FIGHT Movement Impatient from being bottled up aboard their voidships with no one to clobber, this mob cannot wait to get stuck in to a proper scrap. When Your Movement phase, in the Reinforcements step, just after an ORKS unit from your army is set up in an Entry Zone. Target That ORKS unit. Effect Your unit can make an **Advance move**. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Opponent's turn ### ENRAGED RUSH Shooting Shooting this mob only serves to attract their attention while simultaneously making them angry at such a blatant attempt to deny them a good punch up. When Your opponent’s Shooting phase, just after an enemy unit has shot. Target One BOYZ unit from your army that was selected as the target of one or more of the attacking unit’s attacks. Effect Your unit can make an Enraged Rush move. To do so, roll one D6: your unit can be moved a distance in inches up to the result, but must end that move as close as possible to the attacking unit. When doing so, those models can be moved within Engagement Range of that enemy unit, but only that enemy unit. ## Runt Swarm 3 stratagems ### Sneaky Little Gitz Given no position of importance, Grots find their niche as sneaks, thieves and mischief-makers. ▪ Friendly GRETCHIN units have BATTLELINE. ▪ When a friendly GRETCHIN unit is selected to make an **advance**/**fall-back move**, that move does not prevent this unit from being **eligible to start an action**. 2 CP Either turn ### INFESTED WAR ZONE Any phase Short, scrawny and skilled at hiding, there are usually a lot more Gretchin about than meets the eye. When Any phase, when an enemy unit has attacked. Target One friendly GRETCHIN unit that was just **destroyed**. You can target that unit with this **stratagem** even though that unit was just **destroyed**. Effect Add a new GRETCHIN unit to your army identical to your **destroyed** unit, in **strategic reserves**, at its **starting strength**, with its full wounds remaining. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### SCARPER!

When Your opponent’s Movement phase, when an enemy unit ends a move within 8" of a friendly **unengaged** GRETCHIN unit. Target That GRETCHIN unit. Effect Your unit can make a **normal move** of: ▪ Up to D6". ▪ Or: Up to 6" instead if your unit is an **attached** unit. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### GROT SHIELDS Shooting Despite their protestations, Gretchin make surprisingly effective bullet shields. When Your opponent’s Shooting phase, when an enemy unit targets a friendly ORKS INFANTRY unit (excluding GRETCHIN units). Target One friendly GRETCHIN unit within 3" of that ORKS INFANTRY unit. Effect When a hit roll for that enemy unit’s ranged attacks that target that ORKS unit results in a hit, if a model in your GRETCHIN unit is on the battlefield, end the attack sequence for that attack and your GRETCHIN unit suffers 1 **mortal wound**. ## Shoota Boyz 3 stratagems ### Dakka! Dakka! Dakka! Always hunting for something to kill, when Orks spot a target they saturate it with dakka. Friendly ORKS INFANTRY units’ ranged attacks have: ▪ \[Assault\]. ▪ While this unit is **riled up**, +3" **R**. 1 CP Your turn ### KUSTOM DAKKA Shooting Extra speshul ammunition is hoarded by those Orks obsessed with dakka, ready for the ideal target when it is splurged in an impressively killy display. When Your Shooting phase, when a friendly ORKS INFANTRY unit is **selected to shoot**. Target That ORKS INFANTRY unit. Effect Your unit’s ranged attacks that target a unit (excluding MONSTER / VEHICLE units) have +1 to **wound rolls**. 1 CP Your turn ### GLOWIN' DAKKA Shooting Semi-molten or radioactive slugs; frazzle bullets; shokktastik shells; Orks will try anything they can afford to crack open enemy armour in style. When Your Shooting phase, when a friendly ORKS INFANTRY unit is **selected to shoot**. Target That ORKS INFANTRY unit. Effect Your unit’s ranged attacks that target a unit within 9" have +1 **AP**. 1 CP Your turn ### NEVER ENOUGH DAKKA Shooting Squeezing the trigger until their weapon stops firing or falls apart in their hands is a standard tactic for many Orks, and their horrifically wild bursts eventually find their mark. When Your Shooting phase, when a friendly ORKS INFANTRY unit is **selected to shoot**. Target That ORKS INFANTRY unit. Effect Your unit’s ranged attacks have \[Sustained Hits 1\]. ## Taktikal Brigade 3 stratagems ### Suspiciously Well Organised An un-Orky compulsion for discipline can wrongfoot enemies expecting anarchic disorder. ▪ Friendly STORMBOYZ units have BATTLELINE. ▪ When a friendly BOYZ / KOMMANDOS / STORMBOYZ unit is selected to make a **fall-back move**, that **fall-back move** does not prevent that unit from being **eligible to declare a charge**. 1 CP Your turn ### DUBIOUS RESTRAINT Movement A few Orks, particularly those of a rebelliously disciplined outlook, can resist their destructive urges just long enough to prioritise strategic gains. When Start/end of your Movement phase. Target One friendly BOYZ / KOMMANDOS / STORMBOYZ unit. Effect Select one **objective** your unit is controlling. That **objective** is **secured**. 1 CP Your turn ### MIND MOSTLY ON THE MISSION Movement When there’s a dirty job needs doing, Orks with strange compulsions get a kick out of causing such trouble sneakily or swiftly. When Your Movement phase, when a friendly BOYZ / KOMMANDOS / STORMBOYZ unit is selected to make an **advance**/**fall-back move**. Target That BOYZ / KOMMANDOS / STORMBOYZ unit. Effect That move does not prevent your unit from being **eligible to start an action**. 1 CP Opponent's turn ### WHILE THEIR BACKS ARE TURNED Movement With the gitz they were fighting having scarpered, mobs with a plan exploit the sudden lull to press towards whatever target has next caught their eye.

Effect Your unit can make a **normal move** of up to 6". ## War Horde 6 stratagems ### Get Stuck In Joyously anarchic and recklessly destructive, all Orks eagerly get stuck in to every fight. Friendly ORKS units’ melee attacks have \[Sustained Hits 1\]. 1 CP Either turn ### BREAKIN' HEADS Any phase Sometimes even the most enthusiastic Orks need a little ‘encouragement’ to stay in the fight.

You can target that unit with this **stratagem** even though it is **battle-shocked**. Effect Roll one D3: ▪ Your unit suffers a number of **mortal wounds** equal to the result. ▪ Your unit is no longer **battle-shocked**. 1 CP Either turn ### HIT 'EM HARDER Fight Even the weediest Orks possess great strength, and need little persuasion to bring it to bear. When Fight phase, when a friendly ORKS unit is **selected to fight**. Target That ORKS unit. Effect Your unit’s melee attacks have \[Lethal Hits\]. 1 CP Either turn ### ORKS IS NEVER BEATEN Fight So resilient is Ork physiology - and so slow are Orks on the uptake - even death can take time to register.

Effect When a model in your unit is **destroyed**, if your unit has not been **selected to fight** this phase, roll one D6, with +1 to that roll if your unit is **riled up**: ▪ On a 4+, do not remove that model from the battlefield. When your unit has fought, or at the end of the phase (whichever comes first), that model is removed from the battlefield. 1 CP Either turn ### MOW 'EM DOWN Charge · Fight Spiked rams, deff rollas and glyph-heavy dozer blades are more than just stylish statements for the crew of Ork vehicles.

Effect Your unit’s melee attacks have: ▪ \[Cleave 1\]. ▪ Or: If that attack already has \[CLEAVE\], +1 to the value of that \[CLEAVE\] (e.g. \[CLEAVE 1\] becomes \[CLEAVE 2\]). 1 CP Your turn ### FUNGUS-FUEL INJECTION Movement Fermented through entirely unstable processes, just a drop of these potent additives can supercharge any Mek-built engine. When Your Movement phase, when a friendly ORKS MOUNTED / VEHICLE unit is **selected to move**. Target That ORKS MOUNTED / VEHICLE unit. Effect Your unit has +2" **M**. 1 CP Your turn ### CLOSE-RANGE DAKKA Shooting Many Orks think it’s a waste of time blazing away at long range, when it’s more fun to see the effects of potent dakka up close.
