But not being able to customize Orks goes against fluff they established in the first place

Orks don't have manufacturing plants, they don't have factories in the general sense of having automated machines doing all of the construction, they don't have the means of mass production

Mainly because they don't need to. The Meks and their grots provide all of the weapons of War the WAAAGH! would need. Which means they can get creative with what they make. Which they do all of the time, experimenting and making new shit that kills people all of the time. Crazy insane shit that had no rhyme or reason to exist or even function properly. And yet it gets made, and probably has seconds till it explodes spectacularly (if you're lucky).

Saying we can't customize our Orkz denies us the opportunity to show off our flash and gubbinz properly. And Orks love to show off.

True, but GW wants you to buy their models, not be creative, so non-official GW models are considered "counts as" and thus cannot be used in tournaments and suchlike.

Then maybe GW should be more creative with their Orks

Oh wait, they aren't space marines

Never mind, just nerf the Deff Rollah

D'oh.

I'm sure we'll get a fair bit of gubbinz and bitz in EC though.

I'z 'ope so

I didntz put me teef in dis 'ere fing ta not get me gubbinz an flash'ee bitz

You're telling me. I got me the Xeno pack thingy.

I'm finking dat wez got da best lines, da best voices, and da best themes @NoiseMaker fanks ta dis guy!

I'm finking wez got da best lookin' orky loadouts and customizy stuff fanks to @Vlordak_The_Mighty !

I'm finking wez got da best melee around, da best shootas around, and da best numbers around fanks to @MichaelChan @NoahWard

But wot wez don't haz, iz enough screen time! Iz finking wez need our own trailers! Iz finking we needs at least 40 minutes in each of dem twitch fings , and Iz finking wez need ta be twice as big as dem puny humies and pansies!

What ya lads fink? Wez going to Waaaaghh?! Or wez going to WAAAAAGHHH!?!?

those pansies will be happy once they get into the game until the fungal fiends start krumpin them. Did they get rid of the F2W idea or is that still planned sometime after launch? I can be a little salty about that if its scrapped (as a guy who doesn't really like shoota's I wanted to try/stick with the F2W model)

Dont forget they need to have their basic capture unit be double the ground speed of normal marines and orks.
