Looks like Wolves Vs. Orks could be the next Black Reach/Macragge/Dark Vengeance style box.

Didn't expect that, after hearing rumours that a) Orks vs Blood Angels or b) a revamp of Dark Vengeance would fulfill that role. Certainly not complaining though.

Man, If only they had made it inquisition the internet coulda been awash with Python quotes. An opportunity missed, I say.
If it ain't eldar or CSM I ain't fussed who's gettin' the love, so wolves and orks seems like a fine enough choice. Like lovejoy, though, I was expecting BA and orks.

I know, right!
I guess Space Wolves and Orks work. They fought on Armageddon, didn't they? I guess they are looking for more Ork skulls to fill with beer

Sorry Konrad and Admiral

(You may now make wolf pelts lining the Ork tents jokes or some such

)

No worries. Orks in box sets mean cheap bitz. This I am quite happy to hear.

The space vikings have a sort of orky mindset themselves, so I think they should get along well. Depending on what's inside I may pick up a box set.

10 gretchin, 1 special character-Grukk Face Rippa 3 Killa Kans, Ork Boyz"

Those all look to be proper kits as well (except for the two characters), not just snap fit minis.
I wonder if that has anything to do with the massive costs for making sprues and the fact that Dark Vengeance isn't that old.

If the minis are anywhere as detailed as the minis in dark vengeance it will be awesome. Plus mini rule book.

Just be careful about the rulebook. I hear there's no word on it being included. I also heard from a vendor this might be just a limited run thing.
Edit: I guess there's to be a mini rulebook. At least that's what I hear. And the price is $125.
