My friends and I are looking to get into 40k. I'm going to buy the starter set and sell the Orks to one friend and the SM to another. Meanwhile, I will be building an Eldar army to fight them. I don't have an Ork or SM codex, but about how many points does each side have?
I'm guessing around points, but I don't know much about 40k. I just want to know how many points of Eldar to initially buy. Thanks for any answers. If brute force doesn't work, you're not using enough. That would probably be for your eldar around USD depending on were you buy from. Subject: warhammer 40k assault on black reach ork army list! If you havent read about me already then you wont know but im new to DakkaDakka and really like it. If you mean Shoota boys, however, that's ok. Drop one of those Nobz choices, give all 4 squads nobz with bosspoles.
Leaving you with 6 more Nobz. Add them to your meganobz. Max out that shoota squad. What the heck are deffjets and kustom bikes and where are they in the codex? Also, because you didn't put this anywhere. Assuming they are just deffkoptas your army comes to Dark Vengeance brings a new level of refinement to the Warhammer 40k boxed set.
With the release of the 6th edition rule set in July , many wondered if GW would rekindle the incredible value that ABR once had. We will compare the included literature, look for changes in the provided gaming accessories, and compare the included miniatures both in quality and points value.
DV is a major departure from the previous boxed sets both in mood and factions. Instead, DV is adorned by a matte black finish dripping with blood. Warhammer 40k is embossed on the lid with Dark Vengeance written in glossy lettering. The box has a more macabre presence. The DV box is more robust and made of thicker cardboard. The DV box looks more substantial due to the increased material quality and its larger size.
The ABR boxed set always felt flimsy to me. The bottom bowed a lot when picking it up. GW must have been aware of this when they designed DV, as it feels much better than the outgoing set. Traditional lore spans the back of each box. As for the mood differences, it is quite clear by looking at the boxes that GW has moved away from the gung-ho styling of gratuitously bloody battles almost comical war and into a more serious and darker tone. The bright hues of green and blue are replaced with dark grays and crimson.
Bolter bursts and rusty blades are replaced with torn flesh and pointy bits. Warhammer 40k lore has always been very dark, but a lighter tone could be taken through the naivety of the Orks and the dogmatic zeal of the Ultramarines. That light tone is completely lost with Chaos and Dark Angels. As a long time fan, I like the change. ABR included all the gaming accessories that a new player would need to set up simple games.
It did not include terrain, map pads, and such, but the included range finders, templates, and dice were more than enough to get started. Other than that, all the accessories are identical, which is not a bad thing. The accessories are largely unchanged except for a coloration difference in the templates. It would be interesting to see minor terrain included in the set, especially since the literature includes missions in the quick start guide.
The DV rulebook brings major changes such as full color printing, much more content, and better quality paper. ABR included a great pocket-sized rulebook that included all the foundational rules to get a new player playing. DV continues the tradition of providing an abridged rulebook with the set, however the DV rulebook is much higher quality than the ABR book. The biggest difference is that the DV rulebook features full-color printing throughout the entire book.
The ABR rulebook is completely black and white other than images at the very beginning. The artwork throughout the DV rulebook is much improved and a joy to look at.

I managed to get a copy of the rulebook and some codexes from a buddy who's quit the game, but he's keeping all his models so I ordered the Assault on Black Reach set to start out. But, I've been reading all the source material and reading a lot of the forum posts here, and it seems like the SM units included wouldn't be valid, i. So, here's my attempt at configuring both the SM and Ork as valid armies and hopefully relatively balanced.
Also, I went with generic HQ units as this will be my first game and I want to get all the main rules down without worrying about too many special rules for some of the name characters. Here are the questions I have: - are these both valid armies per the rules?
I've tried to make them so, but I'm still working through the rules so I'm unsure. I've got another friend who's interested in playing, so balancing the forces is ideal since we'll probably take turns playing each army. Kill me if I retreat. Avenge me if I die. Manchester, NH. Welcome to Dakka Dakka!
These are indeed valid armies. Well done! As for balance; that's a bit trickier. The Orks are good at killing everything but the terminators.
