Goffs believe that the viability of any plan is in the execution (namely, the execution of anyone with the foolish gall to stand before them). As such, they tend to surge across the field of war in vast, crushing waves of Boyz and Nobz, all following their Warboss. The only kind of ornamentation countenanced among the Goffs are bighorns, massive curved horns cut from the heads of dangerous beasts and worn on helmets as a sign of the Ork's utter fearlessness and brute resilience. Such countermeasures proved extremely effective, and soon more and more light detachments of Heavy Huntaz mobs secured the flanks of all larger Ork warhordes. Ghazghkull likes to hit his foes hard and fast and few other troops are as brutally effective at this type of lightning warfare as Stormboyz.

Fresh from whatever bizarre Christmas dimension last year’s Red Gobbo bounced out of , this year’s commemorative miniature is a phenomenal ode to a trio of musical Oddboyz from the early days of Warhammer 40,000 – appropriately for its 35th anniversary . While it is true that Goffs despise lowly Gretchin, most have learned a grudging respect for those that manage to pilot a Killa Kan. In these hulking metal husks, the Gretchin are not scrawny weaklings, but death-dealing bruisers capable of the Ork ideal: blasting, stomping and mauling foes into an indistinguishable pulpy mass. A profusion of Killa Kanz, Deff Dreads and even larger Ork combat walkers can be found fighting alongside or amidst the Goff infantry. These metal monstrosities clank along amidst the mobs of Boyz, greatly augmenting their hitting power. Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group, and make sure you enter the latest monthly giveaway for FREE today! The Goffs are an Ork "klan" who represent the largest and most aggressive of the known greenskin klanz. The Goffs are the biggest, meanest and most brutish of all their kind, and that's saying something since they are Orks.

Ghazghkull values mobility, so it is no suprise that at the heart of his WAAAGH! can be found many Blitz Brigades –- motorised columns of Trukks and Battlewagons, each carrying a bloodthirsty mob of Orks. During his first invasion of Armageddon the Goff Guard took so many banners and Aquila-topped standards from the Astra Militarum and Adeptus Astartes that they piled them and made a bonfire visible from orbit -– that last bit may be a tall tale they spread around the camps, but who is going to dispute the biggest and baddest Orks who also happen to have the favour of the mightiest of them all -– Ghazghkull himself? Although Lootas needed to plant their feet before firing, the first salvo of shots from their Deffguns could rake through whole Sentinel squadrons, cutting off their long gangly legs or, better yet, exploding them into fireballs.

Goffs are brutally straightforward in battle. They are the biggest and most ferocious Orks, and are a terrifying sight to behold when they strike as a ceaseless tide of green violence. The slaves must be content with drab, neutral colours. Any attempt to wear bright colours is met with extreme chastisement at the hands of a disapproving Goff. Toughness, meanness, and savagery are the traits most valued among the Ork klanz. Indeed, an Ork only needs to be big, tough, and ambitious enough to seize power to rise through the ranks. Who doesn’t want a faithful amp-squig by their side? We hope this is one they actually MTO because we expect it to sell out very fast! Keep your vehicles fighting fit – and cut down anyone who tries to stop you – with this resin Techmarine, armed with an Omnissiah Power Axe and mighty Servo Arm.

It was their duty to strike fast and hard, driving foes away from the incoming Ork Roks' homing signals. Nobz in Mega Armour were almost always included in the first wave of troops arriving via Tellyporta. In this society where might makes right, the mightiest are the great Orks of the Goff klan. The biggest of the greenskin klanz, both in height and bulk, and unmatched in their savagery, the Goffs are the archetypical Ork. Excessive deviation from the way of the klan is met with derision, and the miscreant will certainly get clobbered by any Goff Ork Warboss who comes his way. This supremely confident titan of the 41st Millennium’s music scene amplifies the power of his ‘unique’ discography through a stikkbomb microphone – okay, it’s actually just a stikkbomb* – and his faithful amp-squig. Was the squig born with the amp, or did a genius Dok put it there? It’s unlikely we’ll ever know.

Ghazghkull first used Tellyporta technology after his alliance with Nazdreg. Later perfected by the mad Mek known as Orkimedes, the Tellyporta was a key part of Ghazghkull's second invasion of Armageddon in 998.M41. It’s been a really long time since we’ve thought about these little guys! The old band looks to have broken up, and Goff just went solo. Goff Nobz frequently don Mega-Armour, as they see it as the best way to get right in the middle of the fighting to dispense some violence on their enemies. The Goffs also boast the greatest numbers of Nobz and Stormboyz amongst any of the greenskin klanz. Next month you’ll be able to collect a deadly Skink for a taste of painting little lizards ahead of digging into the chameleonic warband in Warcry: Sundered FateIt was Ghazghkull's intention to use his Tellyporta mobs to counter the Space Marine offensives which had blighted his first campaign at Armageddon. Goffs particularly favour Battlewagons with deff rollas or reinforced rams –- even more so if those rams are shaped like the classic Goff horn symbol. For this reason, Killa Kanz are readily accepted into Goff warbands as well as the formidable Dread Mobs. Of course, it is possible that many Goff Boyz simply do not know that there is a Grot inside such an excellent killing machine. Classic miniatures for Sam, Frodo, and Gollum return to the range with this collection of the characters as they were in Emyn Muil. You can add all three to your Fellowship army, though each character acts independently.

Indeed, some of his mobs were designated "Marine-killas" –- their troops outfitted with twin killsaws or special one-shot rokkits to aid in defeating the Space Marines' power armour.
