-----> You may not be the only one, so let this be Duly Noted:

In WH40K, Any & Every ork tribe can take, does take, and is largely
composed
of Boyz & Nobz. Buggies, etc can be from ANY tribe, but are usually
from the
Evil Sunz. Boarboyz are snakebitez only. Stormboyz are outside the
normal
tribal "thing" so anyone can take 'em. The Kommandos are Blood Axes
only.
Everyone uses Battlewagons, so go nuts...
The Deathskulls are the looters & salvagers and have wild heavy weapons.
The Bad Moonz have better armored nobz and more heavy weapons.
That said, all tribes use shooty boyz and Big Guns, so don't feel
restrained...

-----> Apparently you are new to the cult, my son. Soon, you will
realize the fallacy
of this statement. One day, you will have many, many orks, and other
armies
besides- multiple marine chapters, followers of different chaos
gods....bwahahahahahahaha...
 The process has already begun.
