Hello folks,

First post, hooray.

Although my heart belongs to nids and Eldar, I bought a rake of orks for £92 on Ebay as it was too good a deal to miss. I now have a few questions for EA Orks:

If you have some really badly painted epic infantry, do you recommend re-undercoating them, or just painting over the colours that are already there? I have simple green so I can strip anything else.

Are there any specific rules for a Mekboy Gargant, or do they just count as a slasher with a Mekboy upgrade (soopa-zzap gun)? Maybe a super-stompa?

Also, I received 5 little metal... what look like mini-gargants. Seriously, approximately the same size as a dred, but without the spindly arms and guns on the shoulders. They have what look like a pincer/crocodile clip right arm, a gun for the left arm, a proper mini-gaze of gork head, and a little gun below the belly, like that of a slasher gargant. They do not look like killa-cans, but unfortunately I do not have any pictures as my camera has died. Unless I can find the cable for my mobile phone, none will be forthcoming. Does anyone know what they are, and are there any special rules for them?

Additionally, as I have only recently started reading theas boards, is there any chance of a dictionary for all the acronyms? I can guess EoV is Engines of Vaul and the like, but what is SCHT?

Thanks to all, keep up the inspiring work.

These on the bottom right? http://www.solegends.com/citcat9x3/c924 ... nes-01.jpg

Well, they're obviously tinbots, like it says.  :;): I'd just use them as killa kans if I had some. (Sadly, I don't.)

As for the acronym issue, I'd recommend becoming head honcho of the internet and then execute anyone lazy enough to use them. While you're at it, enforce proper grammar and spelling. Of course, that might not be the solution you're looking for.  :p

They are indeed tinbotz ,thanks for the heads up. Killa Kans they are then.

I have loads of things which are clearly variants on the theme of battle wagons and gun wagons so they are easy enough to identify.

I also have the likes of bubble chukas, squig catapults, and so on. Do they act as soopa-guns or soopa-zzap-guns?

Into the stripper and apply the electric toothbrush.

Up to you as long as each model type is consistent with one gun type or the other.
