Games Workshop Previews New Warhammer 40,000 Ork Weirdboy

Games Workshop swaps back to the Orks this week, previewing another new miniature from the upcoming Warhammer 40,000 Armageddon boxed set, kicking off the 11th Edition of the game.
Ork Weirdboy // Warhammer 40,000
The new Ork Weirdboy channels the oddness and whackiness that you get from the Orks and those amongst their kind who dabble with the Warp. They channel the energies raging around them into crackling green lightning or glowing vomit. Sounds lovely.

As well as the new miniature, you will also be able to check out more rules previews for Warhammer 40,000 11th Edition later this week as Games Workshop talk about the updates to the Fight Phase.
What do you make of the new Ork Weirdboy?

100% this.If you painted the eyes, he’d look like a Mek
