Congrats on Stompy Jay! I was so excited when I saw him on Warhammer Community!!
what article?
It's in the video, @@satire__
@@GuruCube at that point I hadn't fully watched the video :/
I never have to think will my ork opponent bring a stompa, she brings it ,every, single, time

How does it go?

girls don’t play warhammer
Great job painting the Titan, and awesome work getting the commendation!
I saw stompy on warhammer community!!!! Congratulations!!! You should add a little trophy decal or something on him!
If you find a good cheat sheet, could you link it on the discord or in the newsletter?
or on the community page because yeah it would be much appreciated
It just fills me with Joy to hear Jay talk about miniatures. His excitement is infactuating and allways gets my hobby juices flowing.
I would love to spend a weekend with him building a brand new combat patrol or him just showing me all his amazing minis haha
@@DrFopolopolas I would love to pour a random drink with him and then sculpt dick towels with green stuff together
The Stompa is the one must have, for an Ork player, just to have. No Ork collection would be without it. It's like us Necron collectors not having a Monolith, just for the cool model.
I’ve always been tempted to scratch build one myself rather than shelling out the big bucks, but I suppose the box is a great excuse to pull the trigger!
Reaper makes some really good yetis. They have them available in white resin but I think they may have them in the black plastic resin now as well.
Commenting to follow for the cheat sheet
I honestly love Stompy, he is big impractical mega delicate and just about everything one doesn't want to bring to a game. But still he is just awesome. Congratulations on getting awarded and featured on Warhammer community you deserve it after all the work you put into him.
The new Custodes combat patrol I think is better than the battlebox, you get guard, wardens, terminators and a blade champion, all useful units. The issue with the battlebox is the 6 bikes, they are not great in game and people have a lot of them anyway because you get 3 in the previous combat patrol. I also think the combat patrol is more points per dollar than the battlebox, it's honestly probably best for people starting a custodes army to see if they can pick up the old combat patrol and the new combat patrol, IIRC that gets you around 1.4k points without building any shield captain and basically gives you a nice core to the army, with 2 guard units, 1 warden, 1 terminator, 3 bikes, some sisters and a blade champion. So you only need to spend a little more to add say Trajam, maybe some more wardens/guard and you will have 2k.
But also the battle force and the new combat patrol do get you immediately to 2k points! For a new player just having to buy 2 (discount) boxes for an entire army is pretty enticing I'd say.
@@toasthammer Yes I do agree, but I think the combat patrol just brings more useful units, honestly new players are probably better off getting two new combat patrols IMO, then adding like Trajan and other units they might want.
I love how he activates his community to get hands on cool minis
The Stompa is the big reason I'll ever start playing Orkz. That said the battlebox is perfect.
Unusual Yeti Mini Recommendation: Northern Alliance Cavern Dweller
I understand what your saying on the ork box but hear me out. I Purchased the Combat Patrol 2 yrs ago. Then this past xmas I got the Stampede box set. Now this box is coming , and it literally gives me such a huge collection of Orks to work with owning all 3 boxes. The Stompa to me was something I wanted but wouldn't buy on it's own tbh really. So having it come with the box really was awesome for someone like me looking to just expand my Ork collection along with at some point more options for play! I've been waiting on this battleforce since the moment I saw it was coming , Im so excited!!!!!
Same boat, I’m actually gonna split the battle force with a friend as I don’t need more trukks or Lootas, I just want the character and stompa
Since you said it, I would appreciate a video where you explain the rules of Catan in 4 minutes please
Well done on the commendation! Was so pleased to see it feature on the website!
Great work on the Titan. May I suggest a simple basing diorama for the Warhound. A Tech-Priest Dominus walking in front with the Warhound on a long chain leash 👍
Yeah, I already have all the Custodes minus ol' Sweepy, so I'm going to skip it and wait for a Sweepy Solo Release.
The stompa is going to he a very funny choice in the new ork dreadmob detachment. You can give him a +1 to hit in the end of the movement phase from an ork mek boy, then spend 1cp on a stratagem for reroll all hits in exchange for a hazardous test on each weapon.
With Sustained 1, Lethal hits or the AP crit!! Press Dat Button!!
"a stompa is a preposterous unit to take" someones forgotten who ork players are
8:06 Battleforces
I was gonna buy the ork battle force and use the stompa kit to make some scuffed gorka/morkanauts(1 of each using the stompa’s arms to differentiate between them) and maybe use whatever leftover panels I have from tearing it apart to make some grot tanks with, along with some kataphron Breacher treads
Stompy is amazing. Congratulations!🎉. Well deserved and what’s on the table for next time?
With dreadmob detachment you could see an actual Ork walker army that can go up against choas knights.
I probably wont ever play the stompa but im getting the box FOR the stompa. Ive wanted to paint one up ever since i first saw it.
You are wrong about the Ork Army Box, HEAR ME OUT!
Sure your logic makes sense, but the thing you are forgetting is that this is for ORKZ! And what do ORKZ do? KONVERSHUNS!
Personally, I am buying two, but I might want even more. I want to konvert the stompas to make the OOP Forge Wold stompas, the Klaw-Stompa and Mek-Stompa, but I also want to just use the parts to make a plastic Kill-tank, or some other konvershuns.
One of the trukks will be used to make Mek-Gunz, and the other will be used to make a half-trakk for my Mega-Nobz.
And there is ALWAYS room for more Boyz!
In short, this is not a "must-have" for new Ork players, but it is a GREAT box for veteran Ork collectors!
For the yeti mini, paint it all in Musou Black, to capture the fuzzy photo effect. Did that for a mothman mini & it's hilarious but effective.
I wanted to play orks for kill team are they good?
the Ork box actually looks fun to me and I don't even play Orks, might grab it just to stick on the shelf until all my other projects are done.
Congrats on Stompy! You are an amazing painter.
Congrats on Stompy!!! Super cool!!
I'm sure you've seen the reaper miniatures yeti. I really like those ones.
im also super interested in a cheat sheet!!! Please let us know
What's your opinion on the Beastsnaggas battleforce?
I think a cool idea for Don’t look back is the model of the old FPS unreal tournament guy. Available from Hardcore miniatures. Imagine a space worror dropped into a campsite and all he knows is kill them all.
That’s a cool mashup.
Id love to see someone make the Stompa in to a figure case like the old Star Wars and GIJoe cases
i really like the big mek he is so cool i have been wanting an exo suit ork model
Jay have you tried crusade game mode?
If you entered into the 30k event you could throw in a destroyed Deimos predator and paint it in word bearer colours, like you speculated on doing as an army a while ago
I was so happy seeing Stompy on the recommended
Tou got one entry done, but it was a giant Warlord Titan
the boardgame "Horrified: American Monsters" from 2021 has the best Big Foot mini I've found plus you get a great game and 5 other cryptid minis
ive been getting into warhammer again after over a decade, i wanna do 40K(have 640 points into a Salamanders army)but i also have love for the seraphon, i was wondering if the Vanguard boxes were good for them, like if they are a good combat patrol, like the old dark angels box, or a kinda turd one, like the new dark angels box.
Does this mean, new stompa model for the codex, or just straight gone?
The stompa box looks perfect for me as a returning Ork player, just enough burnas and lootas to bring my 10 man squads to full force, new character, and something to face off with Knights. With the points I already have it's almost perfectly enough to put me at 2k with units I use
BruteFun Miniatures on MMF makes a great yeti (for Bloodbowl)
Jay, you're sort of right about the Stompa box. I have everything I need, but I don't have a Stompa
Reaper Minis have good Yeti models. I like the poses on them
With the codex the Stompa is no joke, it's unlikely to be a competitive staple but the Dread Mob makes it kinda hilarious.
I've wanted one for a while, it's big and stupid and therefore proper orky, the battleforce just let me get one pkus some other things I was after at a healthy discount
I'm so happy you got the commendation 🎉
I bought gremlins 2 on dvd last week ☺️
There are a number of nice yeti on my mini factory.
i've hear that the gorkanaut can one shot a ctan theoretically. with proper setup, in the new codex and if it doesnt kill itself with hazardous
Honestly One page rules would be a much easier way to get people into the gaming side of the hobby. Would highly recommend.
Do a basing video on night time themed bases
I can remember my mate found a ork mech that can piolet a forge world mech stompa for like 200-250pts less than the stompa its self and he also give is a void sheild! when he found out he can do this it would bring this every game with like 60-90 shooter around it and just win.... and ye he would allways upgrade with belly cannon and two gun arms! this was way back in a older edition!... when forge world had a mech stompa! and well forge world was a thing and made baggers of models
I have the old combat patrol box and a box of terminators, so that's my 1000pts custodes army, and I was looking at the the battle force box until they revealed the combat patrol, and to be honest I think I'd rather the combat patrol and maybe another box of jet bikes than the battleforce now, and that will give me pretty much near 2000 pts before I start looking at Forgeworld and allied Knights
Jay I’d love to see that Tau Diorama. Maybe give the Ork some type of garbage gun which would never get through a Tau shield but because he believes hard enough it starts to work. You could even make a nice title plate for it saying “Beleef”
congrats on recommendation though this big guy looks better in your video than in the GD picture I barely recognized it. Stompa looks fun that's the spirit not competitive.
Congrats Jay.
Horrified North American monsters edition has some great models. The Bigfoot should be perfect in there
Where are y'all finding bigfoot models??? I need a few
History immortalized!! Stompy done Justice!!
TH-camd some vids on Stompa. Hope GW improved the instructions .
Mythicos, mythic americas has some amazing sasquatch.
A year ago you said you were gonna do some grey knight content, stick to your promises jay!
The stompa is definitely the free model. It hardly sells and GW knows that so dangeling the new big mek and a decent number of troops and a truck for new or veteran players was the goal. It remains to be seen if the new Ork codex will make the stompa better so its good to have it just in case. Otherwise its a cool project to display on the shelf. Also, Its hard to make a bad Custodes box. The jetbikes are definitely from the old Combat Patrol. The battleforce goes well with both the new and old CP so its a great time to start the army. $600 for almost everything in the range is such a great deal!! FW models would be the only thing you would need, which all the money you saved can be put towards a few of those kits.
Can you cover the female custodies fight?
The Brutefun Yeti is pretty decent
How can you possibly have more things to say jay!
I did buy the Ork box
Y'know I was just thinking to myself that I was starting to forget squarespace and needed to see 50 videos in a row sponsored by them lol
a stompa is the best points per dollar in the game, so its good for a budget option for orks
GD 30K less competitive? Have you seen the bronze? A gorgious ascended Horus, so nicely painted
Jay is that a scrunchie on your arm???
I just think the stompa would look good in my collection.
With the new walker and mek focused detachment Stompa might be a lot stronger
Its very funny that they made bf for ork and custodes so bad, just to make the combat patrol for both army to be super good. Its just like this is all part😮 of their plans.
When you find the perfect bigfoot I'll buy one too!
Overwatch... yeah... I had a game, where my oponent rolled 7 attacks. There were 6 sixes. Sustained hits. The 7th. Attack he was able to reroll and it also became a six.
That was tough for the squad. I lost that gane in the end by less than 5 points, so I would say, that this overwatch was a slight gameswinger.
The ork set is great, you get a stompa and 5 lootas for free, thats arguments enoug!
I ordered 2 boxes😜
Hey you I see you looking at the comments, LIKE THE VIDEO
Being in the UK and no Golden demon this year , I feel like I've gained 14 months of time for my Golden demon ... but I'm still behind 😂
If you get a decent cheat sheet for 10th Ed 40k please share!
That picture REALLY makes it look like Stompy's head is the rocket launcher
Kinda works actually he’s just also got a face on his belly hahaha
I feel like the Custodes box is perfect for a newcomer. It loses value rapidly for an experienced collector of the army. The ork one is tough because of stompa. Is it going to be a thing you take or not as a new ork player?
Oooh! Time to get 3d printing these new forces!
Ork Battleforce aka: We can't sell stompas because they cost too many points and its rules suck so if we put it in a box with a discount maybe people will buy the overstock we have.
0:23 for a surprise
Every time I see a new battleforce I wonder why T'au didn't get one, and then I remember, they got Kroot.
You say this like it's a bad thing. That Kroot hunting pack box set is NY favorite combo box I've ever got from Warhammer.
You should look at the silver bayonet monsters
They literally have a man with a dog head
Dogman. Classic Cryptid.
should I get this box and become a TWO stompas player?
The Kroot one was good because it was about giving Kroot their spotlight, just like the Beast-Snaggas for Orks a few years ago.
This Ork box looked like garbage and an excuse to move the Stompa.
Do you want a Harry and the Hendersons style yeti Or more of a terrifying yeti?
Best bigfoot is obviously chewbacca!
Tyranid combat patrol is £95
The starter set is £55
The difference?
Two barbgaunts...
But you get the book and the cards too
At this point I'm just coming to watch the different pronunciations of "hOw?" : P
(Awesome video as usual)
