Ork Pirates Fleet List
'Ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go!
Forces
The Ork Pirates Fleet List uses the datasheets from the Ork Pirates Forces section.
Using The Fleet List
The fleet list includes the following information:
- Class
- The type of the ship.
- Notes
- Notes on usage or optional upgrades.
- Cost
- The points value of the formation.
Special Rules
Ork Pirates uses the Ork Special Rules and are armed with Ork Weapons.
Ork Special Rules
- Leadership
- All Ork ships reduce their Leadership by -1 from whatever they rolled, giving them a Leadership range of 5 to 8.
- All Ahead Full Special Orders
- Orks do not need to pass a Command check to use All Ahead Full special orders. However, Ork drives are less efficient than those of other races and are often short on fuel, so they only travel an extra 2D6cm on All Ahead Full orders instead of 4D6cm.
- Boarding
- Orks they get a +1 bonus in boarding actions to represent their savagery.
- Dakka Dakka
- Ork capital ships can add +2 turrets to their ships for +20 points (this is not the same thing as saying “up to two turrets at +10 points each”). Ork escorts may add +1 turret for +5 points per escort unless a particular fleet list adjusts this. If this option is taken, every escort in a given squadron must take the refit, not just individual escorts in a squadron.

Ork Weapons
- Gunz
- Standard Ork weapons batteries are referred to as ‘gunz’. These have a random firepower which is rolled each time they are fired. The dice roll and modifier for different gunz is indicated on the Ork ship’s characteristics.
- Torpedo Launchas
- As with their gunz, Ork torpedoes can vary wildly in their effectiveness. The strength of a salvo from an Ork torpedo launcha is randomly generated each time it is fired by rolling the dice indicated on its characteristics. Ork ships in squadrons may not combine torpedoes into larger salvoes.
- Heavy Gunz
- Heavy gunz roll to hit like ordinary weapons batteries but do not count gunnery modifiers for range. Each hit scored by heavy gunz causes double damage, ie, two hits instead of one.
- Fighta-Bommas
- Ork attack craft are known as fighta-bommas and perform the roles of both interceptor and bomber. This hybrid approach means that they function as fighters normally but can attack ships as if they were bombers. However, when attacking a ship, each squadron only rolls a D3 (rather than a D6) for the number of attacks they inflict.
