No, they think the game should be played with the models intended. IE, if a unit scares and is expensive (which is often the case) then they can whine about the models not being official. Its silly.

People are dumb.
People who take a game that seriously are even dumber.

bastards!
in that case...kommandos are probably out... unless you want to buy 4 sets worth of metal models to get a squad together...
or can buy them loose somehow....or find some people who arn't jerks to play with... I mean usually this sort of stuff is allowed just about everywhere I've heard of.
::edit:: yes, the masks are greenstuff.

Well, they come 5 in a box, so I could get the squad for around 45 dollars. Which isn't AWFUL!
Toss in Snikt at around 15 and your looking at the whole unit for 60.

yeah but one is a nob and one or two have special weapons... can't take a nobs if you want snikrot. anyway if you're willing go right ahead, I just think it is silly they won't let you use conversons...their stats are the same as any other ork and their gear is the same aside from the stikkbombs, all you gotta do is keep em packing light and make them look sneaky...you should only have to buy one box of metal kommandos at the most! but if your group insists you must use the real thing and there is no way around it, I guess that is what you gotta do. your group makes my plague bearers cry... and they're daemons!

Daemon may Cry? =P
And the Nob looks just plain awesome! I can use him for a Nob in one of my group. I may just get the 5 and suppliment the rest with Boyz and tell the locals to suck it up! ;D

I wonder if they'd still let me use them as summoned lesser daemons...
but anyway, Kommandos are the way to go! I'm glad you decided it, good luck getting those models...and keep us updated on your progress!
also-more Ork questions! I'll be happy to try and firgure them out right along with you.

I can't wait to play these guys! The list itself is easy to defeat if you build to beat it, but for an all comers random list, I think it will stand on its feet pretty well!
Ps, think I should give the Nobz Cyborg bodies?

Depends on if you have the points. They do come in handy, so I would play around with it and see if you like it or not.

it is pricy I think... but if you got a dok you should try it!
my lists always go pretty light on the upgrades but that doesn't mean some of them arn't worth taking.

I am taking a doc with my Nobz. I think its only 5 pts per model to give them an invuln save. hmm

Yeah, if you are paying for the doc in your list already then you might as well.

Again, I have very elite, whiny people to play with. They expect the real thing on the table. They sap much joy out of the game and not for just this reason. =( Tell them to cry some more. The Boyz box COMES with stuff you can use to make Kommandos out of them, and Ork players are basically REQUIRED to konvert stuff. I'd personally rather see an army with converted Kommandos that are all unique rather than a bunch of cookie-cutter pewter models where everything looks the same.
