Orks going to get a Melta?

Discussion in 'Orks' started by Dreadspectre, Aug 18, 2016.

  1. Having the only viable option to killing vehicles(efficiently) be Lasgun Lootas feels kinda bad right now. Rokkits do absolutely garbage damage to vehicles and even the Ork tank main cannon seems to tickle.

    Is there plans on an Ork melta equivalent?
  2. Orks will get something like the melta, is like a big flametrower that breathes hot plasma. [​IMG]

  3. Oh goodness yes, Burna Boyz.

    Here's hoping it's actually for killing Vehicles and not for Infantry behind cover(although needed as well).

    5 Loadouts really make it hard to have an anti-vehicle set up right now too though.
  4. i just take a meltabomb for the cap units and that works good for anti vehicle

    It shoots more like a melta gun than a flame thrower. That was how it was described anyway.

    Ask Games Workshop.

    The "Tankbusta" squad has Rokkits and a single meltabomb per squad. Lol.

    Orks anti tank weapon has always been the S9 Powerklaw, son. Live it, love it. Once they finally put it in the game it will be glorious.

  7. They mentioned on the Stream that they want the Ork's main AV to be the Power Klaw. I guess that's why the Rokkit Launcha is kinda lackluster.

    I am definitely looking forward to a Burna, though. It most certainly has an Anti-Infantry role, so hopefully they'll implement it such that I can indulge in a little pyromania now and again. If it has to get an AV role crowbar'd in, I'd say make it a weapon mod you have to equip for points that lets you toggle the fire mode to turn it into pretty much a melee power weapon, like a big blowtorch.
