| [Content from Armies Book page 44 and 53 to 57. Errata from Firepower #1 page 15] |
Strategy Rating
Orks have a Strategy Rating of 3.
Ork special rules
Ork armies rumble forward in an unstoppable mass, charging into the enemy with no regard for themselves. For this reason, at the start of the Assault phase the Ork player may place any Initiative counters already removed back into the pot, thus increasing the chance that the Orks will have the initiative in the Assault phase.
[Also, Orks hitching a lift.]
