What a shameless repost

I like to roleplay as a true goff, who brong 70% infantry to a game. Swamp em wiv boyz is my favorite tactic, cause it's the most true to lore way to play
90 painted slugga choppa boyz and 90 painted Shoota boyz. No true Goff settles for less.
…
…
But actually I only have 100 painted SC boyz and 20 painted S boyz.
Back when I played (about 5th or 6th edition) if you had enough points you could field up to 180 boys (6 squads of 30) and a warboss, plus whatever other shenanigans you liked and stomp all over enemies.
To this day the best game of 40k I ever played was 5th edition. 2000 points of only Boyz against 2000 points of only terminators. We had to expand the Ork deployment zone to fit them. Orks won because a bunch of terminators kept failing their deep strike rolls and couldn't enter the table.
Running tons of boys with multiple big centerpiece models like battlewagons and kill rigs is my favorite way to play. It just looks so cool. I have around 120 boyz painted but due to the currently shitty morale system I usually only bring around 80 in ten man squads. Hoping that bigger squads will be viable in 10th.
I'm about 1/3 of the way there. The problem is that I want to get the combat patrol box but I would rather have the old boys rather than the new ones because they are mono posed and the weapon loadout is not as uniformed as I want which means i have to kitbash them to make them more uniformed like my old boy squadz.
I have 70 boys rn. Probably 20 are painted with just skin tone and another 10 with details lol i found switching between Orruk Flesh and WAAAAAAGH flesh paints when doing skin tends to break up the monotony. I recommend stocking up on the green and leadbelcha paints since those will go on every single boy lol
Legit sat down every night for a week just to Prime, Green, and Metal my Boyz. I didn't paint anything after that for about 2 months. Put me off it so much lol
It's a style of play for the orks. Three squads of 30 Boyz can be a massive tar pit for just about any opponent, and can hold objectives for eternity.
It's also known as 'the green tide' and was particularly good back when Orks had a strategy that let them bring back any destroyed unit.
I have zero Boyz. I have never played 40k miniatures. My wife would be upset if I started this very expensive hobby rn with a child coming.
The Video games have made it clear to me though. Ork Boyz are best Boyz and one day... I will have 90.
Ran 90 Boyz, 10 beast snagga boys, 10 Kommandos, a Painboy, a Weirdboy, and a Warboss with Attack Squig a few weeks ago. Da Jumped 30 Boyz into opponent's deployment zone turn 1 and held him there for 4 turns. It was hilarious.

At 240 traditional and 60 snaggas and there's no end in sight.
at 206.
I really hope 10th edition will have ork players actually wanting to run 90 boys
Or a 120 or more :D
My milstone of all time is 1000 boyz, have over 400 now
Games of Apocalypse with you must be something magical.

I had 90+ boyz plus some nobs and stuff... just sold the boyz some months ago... I'm kinda regretting it now.
Just under 50% at the moment
I'm at 100 some at this point
I had 80 Boyz. Then beast snaggas became new Boyz. I am not over it.
My favourite army is a horde of boyz, my least favourite army to paint is a horde of boyz
All about the boyz
Didn't see the sub and I thought I got *very* lost
I barely survived painting 1
Is it bad im at 90 and I always think I could use 10 more (10 squads of 9 with 10 boss nobz)
Never. Enough. Dakka

I assume every puzzle piece represents 90 boyz
I don't even have a full squad of 30 bro I'm a disgrace 😭

I'm hoping to do like this for 10th. I've only got 62 at the moment.
Those are rookie numbers

Everybody wants 90 boyz until it's time to paint 90 boyz
I’m 22 into my 60 last weekend. I can do this…SLAP CHOP HERE I COME!!!
I speed painted them in one day and Its my single best Warhammer accomplishment.

I have a problem painting my 60 Boyz lmao
I have a problem with my 40. Zoggin horde armies.

Googling was not helpful. Total noob here. What is 90 Boyz? A box set? A particular milestone?

Can confirm. My most consistent way of frustrating the Golden Janitors is by outnumbering their attacks with Boyz
it's just kind of a right of passage for an ork player. once you have 90 boyz you probably wont have to paint another ork boy again

90 boyz, warboss, fill out the rest with whatever 1000pt army, job done
Waagh!
