I've used a Chimera with 3 Ogryns inside in my last game, I intented to run them up the right side to take on the space marine snipers on the other side of the field, however my enemy deep striked a unit of relic terminators behind me. With move, move, move from lord Solar I was able to intercept them before they reached the squishy underbelly of my army by using the Chimera to block their lane of advance and dropped of the Ogryns, they held the line until the game was basically won, keeping the termis of my home objective that was held by Creed and an infantry squad. So 3 Ogryns in a chimera are actually not just great offensively, but also lets you quickly respond to deep strikes in your back line
it's also in lore, that even if it takes extra bribing, it is common to try to get ogryn in transports and to the front fast as possible. so this tactic is pretty viable
great! i just caved and ordered zap brannagan on fillicity and kriegers. and now youre giving away the perfect way to meme with ogryns. thats it! im getting ogryns!
Servitor unit can only take 2 weapon. I know it can hold a lot but you would also two Enginseer so you can get the servitors hitting on 4+ with the order. Also does the vehicle need to not move to get the Heavy bonus? Then 3+ plasma cannons are pretty nice.
@@earnestbrown6524 it would need to stand still to gain All the heavy bonuses. I was thinking 2 servitor squads, you could also squeeze in another 10 man platoon squad with another heavy weapons. Thats 23/24 firing deck.
Was thinking about the shortbus tactic along with a enginseer with servitor squad in a second chimera. Same cost as the shortbus and can keep the chimeras alive while adding either multimeltas or more heavy bolters and arent bad in melee either...still leaves 8 open slots in the transports as well...
Hear me out: Lord Solar Regimental Enginseer Stormlord - HWS (3xLascannon, HB or whatever) - 3x Ogryn - 3x Ogryn - 5x Sniper Ratlings - 5x Sniper Ratlings - 5x Sniper Ratlings 1000pts onn the nose. That's 39/40 transport slots used. It's 24 actual models all able to shoot. The Ratlings kan disembark in movement, shoot, reembark in shooting and the Stormlord then gets to also use their guns. That's 30 precision shots. The main issue I see is Lord Solar getting shot to shit real fucking ricky tick xD Solar does however let us redeploy all of our units, after opponent has deployed.
If you want to run 2 of the super heavies with Ogryn and try for some balanced firepower... What about running 2 Doomhammers with a full squad of Ogryn in each? You're still getting 33 "heavy bolter" shots (51 at 9 inches), but now you're adding the D6+3 Magma cannon shots to your 4 lascannons. You will be in close range anyway, and if firing at a vehicle or monster, you get the D6+6 damage out to 24 inches anyway. At 605pts each or 1210 for both, that still leaves you with enough for a large infantry or artillery detachment.
wow, totally gotta try the taxi fleet. thank you, i did have wierd ideas about a stormlord filled with lascannon heavy weapons teams too but i dont think you can do that anymore... :(
@Mordian Glory Did Sly Marbo as lone op with his 3" shoot back bubble also support vehicles. In that case the bang bus. In that case this would be overkill OP cracking the meta. Imagine sly embarged within. Gets out and the bang bus shoots everytime back he got shot. If so this would be crazy
@mordian I can see you point about volume of fire on the Chimera vs stormlord but the stormlords fire power is way better and its survivability with a tech priest would be fantastic not to mention order economy. It will also be the biggest target on the battle field soaking up volumes of fire. One thing against it though is that its a huge model with limited places it can go.
I think there is a miscalculation in there somewhere For the fake taxi, in 9" range, you get: -heavy stubber: 6 shots -heavy bolter: 2x3 = 6 shots -lasgun array: 12 shots -ripper gun: 2x 6 = 12 shots That does 36 shots, not 42. Un less i am.missing something?
Ive played guard for 22 years. I've got over 20k of guard...all painted. NEVER have I heard Ogryn Bang Bus, and could have gone my entire life not hearing it...but now i want to run this simply for the memes and my local game store.
Another down side of taking the stormlord is that competitive tables now in 10th are pretty cramped if they're using the GW layouts. So it's very much the case that you will have a difficult time deploying your super heavy tank, and then you might only barely be able to move the tank.
Have run this in a local RTT 2 wins and a loss to Imperial Knights who unfortunately could rapidly deal with the Stormlord. Main issue is tank type armies such as Knights who you struggle to wound.
No they don’t. Technically it’s the transport shooting their weapons. But that’s nice if you can order the transport with Lord solar or a vehicle commander
I'd go full Ogryn battle bus. Yes, it may be twice the price, but it also has twice the value when combined with overwatch. Not just 129 shots in your turn, but 129 shots in your opponents turn too, along with the benefit of higher toughness and wounds to chew through, before releasing the very rabid nut inside. One very angry distraction carnifex designed to remove almost anything that can legitimately score objective points against you. Even against tougher targets, with that volume of fire you'll still scrape wounds off!
Reporting for Duty , Sir o7 The fake "taxi's" is an awesome idea . With 3 of them with a Scout Sentinel run near by would be a terror for most Armies The bang bus sounds cool until on table , your opponent will have 75% of his Army firing at it 1st turn . I doubt the Storm Lord can handle that much punishment
I kinda want to see you rocking ogryn bangbus in action at a tournament. Would be hella fun. Heck why don't you go full Ogryn, with three chimera's rocking 4 bullgryns each in addition. Of course, you'll need ogryn bodyguards in every command squad as well. And if you're cheeky, have the stormlord rock two full ogryn squads and one command squad with ogryn BG, while the third squad drives around in the fake taxi. It'll be all ogre.
I miss when the Stormlord could fire twice. Would have been even better. Also bangbus could get the rapid fire boost order for a few extra shots. Would be worst I'm sure but few more shots. Get that russ with -1 ap boost. And might be ok at killing armor?
I think the Stormlord is great with the overwatch strat, start with Kasrkin or Catachan for the scout move then the mortar teams can move into it and make it rain.
Uh…….who’s gonna tell mah boi that Bangbus was a particular series in a particular genre of……film? Lol! In all reality though I did enjoy a lot of the memes in the video 🤣

But for this channel, i would have gone my whole life without having to visualize the "Ogryn Bangbus".
Ogryn Dakka Bus is slightly less dirty :D
(Red vs Blue warthog song builds in the distnace) Heretics "Whats that noise?"
Omg, what did I just discover? 😅 make it go away, please
"Ogryn bang bus" made me smile. "Ogryn fake taxi" made me laugh. "Step sister of battle trapped in a washing machine" made me subscribe.

could first rank fire the chimera to increase the lasgun array and the rippa guns get more shots
Ogryn fake taxi...this was hilarious
...Miss Frizzle has changed...
I won't make the obvious pun
I’ve been using chimeras as a light tank with lascannon teams so this is just adding to an already great idea… 6 “light tanks” for my next game 😂
6 Ogryn in a Doomhammer is so much better. You get a useful main gun (the sorely needed anti-Knight firepower) and all the other Dakka
Lord solar 3 engine seers x3 6man ogryns x3 doomhammers exactly 2000 points lol
Yes ! Now we can destroy that damned 20-ish Necrons warrior unit !!!
I have been thinking of optimising this meme and i think 3 ogryn fake taxis (chimera) and a 9 team heavy weapons, 4 plamsa servitor bang bus.
Servitor unit can only take 2 weapon. I know it can hold a lot but you would also two Enginseer so you can get the servitors hitting on 4+ with the order.

Ogryn taxi/Bus tournament recap or riot!
@Mordian Glory
Did Sly Marbo as lone op with his 3" shoot back bubble also support vehicles. In that case the bang bus. In that case this would be overkill OP cracking the meta.
Imagine sly embarged within. Gets out and the bang bus shoots everytime back he got shot.
If so this would be crazy
I had to check this out just because of the name.

-heavy bolter: 2x3 = 6 shots
-lasgun array: 12 shots
-ripper gun: 2x 6 = 12 shots
That does 36 shots, not 42. Un less i am.missing something?
firing deck of 24 and each ogryn takes 3 spaces only 8 ogryns can be on the firing deck, unless I am missing something?
Ive played guard for 22 years. I've got over 20k of guard...all painted. NEVER have I heard Ogryn Bang Bus, and could have gone my entire life not hearing it...but now i want to run this simply for the memes and my local game store.
Time to print
Love the bang bus and that fake taxi. Here we go....
So, interesting question: if the ogryn are going to be sitting in the bus all day, do you need the models? 😅
Good question, but those Wargames Atlantic Ogryns are 9 for 35 bucks, so the price point doesn't have to be terrible if you do. :)
@@TimothyNiederriter what are they marketed as?
@@Caladonian_1st "Landskecht ogres" i think, 9 ogres and it has options for guns
@@Caladonian_1st Landsknecht Ogres
Another down side of taking the stormlord is that competitive tables now in 10th are pretty cramped if they're using the GW layouts.
So it's very much the case that you will have a difficult time deploying your super heavy tank, and then you might only barely be able to move the tank.
I... don't want to know what happens on camera in this bus
Snu snu.
Have run this in a local RTT 2 wins and a loss to Imperial Knights who unfortunately could rapidly deal with the Stormlord. Main issue is tank type armies such as Knights who you struggle to wound.
Do the Ogryns get their bonus to AP for shooting the nearest enemy firing out a vehicle? Do any units get their rules?
No they don’t.
Technically it’s the transport shooting their weapons.
But that’s nice if you can order the transport with Lord solar or a vehicle commander
@@Baktrianos Does that mean their weapons would get any rules from the transport that applied?
Two drills filled with ogryn....
I miss Commissars hanging out with Ogryn and ordering them around.
I'd go full Ogryn battle bus. Yes, it may be twice the price, but it also has twice the value when combined with overwatch. Not just 129 shots in your turn, but 129 shots in your opponents turn too, along with the benefit of higher toughness and wounds to chew through, before releasing the very rabid nut inside.

Firing deck does not work in overwatch, it’s a phased ability you are triggering out of phase, rules commentary for the clarification on this.

Love this kind of content from the channel. I need to become a membersss
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "ENOUGH DAKKA"!
It's moar like a state of being
How about x3 banehammers with one group of ogryns in each?
Just won an impulse bid for a StormLord on eBay…… looks like I’ll be buying myself some more Ogryns now too

Get that russ with -1 ap boost. And might be ok at killing armor?
I love the bang bus idea but i pefer to put a heavy weapons platoon in my stormlord . The fake taxi is good but i put 4 bozos in there though .
I do have a doom hammer filled with heavy weapon squads, so why not throw some ogryn in there too hahahahaha.
I think the Stormlord is great with the overwatch strat, start with Kasrkin or Catachan for the scout move then the mortar teams can move into it and make it rain.
Not anymore
Can you use overwatch on the Ogryn bang bus?
I prefer the taxi version, because Ogryns should go on the short bus.
Well sir, I believe you should call such force to arms sir?
I’ve never died laughing at Mordian glory but many golly I was cryinggggggg 😂😂😂😂
Uh…….who’s gonna tell mah boi that Bangbus was a particular series in a particular genre of……film? Lol! In all reality though I did enjoy a lot of the memes in the video 🤣
He probably knows and that is why he's using that particular word
I thought him adding Fake Taxi would be enough for people to get it lmao
Instead of Fake-Taxi, I think a better name is Faux-Mobile or is it the Foe-Mobile?
The joke is in reference to porn brands.
Wow I was just asking if ogryn are good in your last video😂
Oh God Emperor....the smell.
I can already see the Bang Bus and two Fake Taxis as a guard equivalent to Imperial Knights.
These are Ork tactics.
Someone make shrek ears for orgryns I beg of you
Stormlord or go home.
