When it comes to ork mobs, i've been slightly confused.
Which ork units are mobs? Many texts that i've read claim that you can use a mob size check for your Warboss and his bodyguard and for every infantry unit listed in the ork codex. I'm fairly sure about the infantry boyz, as they are listed as mobs(I know that Killer Kans are also listed as mobs but don't get this benifit), but what about the Warboss(and for that matter any HQ)? Can it be that if he assaults he actually has a chance of attacking before a Genestealer? Does he not get the Mob Size check with his bodyguard but does get it when attached to another unit? Thanks, Hawkies

I guess you could do a mob size check for any unit if you wanted. The codex says (without quoting) that you should use the number of orks in the unit (mob), and grotz and dreads/kans don't count.
Roll for anything you want, but the chance of your lone warboss getting I 10 is quite slim indeed. With a bodyguard however... |

True, anything consisting of orks can get that mob check. That is no grots and no machines.
So thats pretty easy. The same applies with the waagh test for double initiative. Its often neglected and looked down on by many I have played against, but its really a winner. Makes the orks strike with I4. Suddenly the 60+ attacks arent reduced to 30+... Orks ftw! |
