Cyborks and Contemporary 40k

[Orjetax]

I love cyborks.

There is a new ork codex for contemporary 40k.

If I were to play a contemporary game (I know, I know . . .) what is the best "match" for my cyborks?

From reading other fora (shudder) I get the impression that its no longer possible to have a whole mob of cyborks.

Is that right?

I haven't read the newest codex but the previous one only had the option for Flash gitz and nobz to have painboy that would give them access to cybork bodies. So not a mob of cybork but just an upgrade for better saves.

My recollection is that prior codex allowed you to stick Mad Dok Grotsnik with a unit of boyz and give them all cybork bodies.

Am hearing this no longer works in new codex.

But you raise a good point - maybe nobs or flash gits can get cybork.

I read that pain boys could be attached to regular boy units now, not restricted to nob units, so you can have a unit of 'ard boyz with 4+ armour, and a 5+ for feeling no pain... better than the 6+ leather pants save anyway of course, it may just be another speculative rumour!
