atomic empire orks walOrks gathered up all that they could to fight the lists from the Atomic Empire tourney. Check out this awesome Ork army and all the gubbinz’ it brought.

Warzone: Atomic Empire was a qualifier event for Warzone: Atlanta later in the year. With people fighting for a slot, there were some awesomely painted competitive lists! Take a deeper look into what it’s like to be inside of an Ork Waaagh!!

We Need More Boyz! Atomic Empire Army Showcase

Looking at this Orks list, it looks like this player has been keeping up with the meta! While Boyz are the backbone of any Orks list, this player brought plenty of Gretchin to soak up wounds on the valuable units.

Gretchin may be the weakest unit to hit the tabletop in 40k, but they’re almost worth their weight in gold to the Orks. While their models are small, plenty of hobby effort when into each one. Just check out the crisp lines! They may be rank-and-file units but each one looks like they’ve got a story to tell.

Looking at the melee aspect of the force, Slugga/Choppa Boyz charged ahead to create space for the Mek Gunz and Lootas hiding in the backfield.

Speaking of those Lootas, here they are strapped to the teef with enough dakka to last a lifetime.

For Orks being a horde army, each one of these models has had the full hobby treatment. From colored teeth and tongues all the way to highlighted muscles. Great job on this work of art!
