I do not believe Nobz are not Light Infantry. Those are probably the most Infantry units in the game.
Netput
They are produced from the Tier 1 barracks. That is what I am trying to say there.
If you look at their stats, it says they carry heavy armour, so they are hard to take down with regular units for sure!
Noobert
No no, what I mean is that tier should not determine the classification of Infantry. The armor level should specify what type of classification they are. There is no way that Ork Nobz are not in the Heavy Infantry classification just as how you have listed the Trukk as a Heavy Unit when it is an Ork vehicle.

Really cool. I have a request though, if you don't mind. Is it possible you could, under the Gretchin page, also list what they can build from scrap and how much it costs? Would be pretty useful.
Netput
On hindsight, you are right. Changed the Codex to visualize better what I tried to say.
That is a great idea indeed! Sadly enough I don't know this yet either. This could be a very useful guide for the future though.
Thanks for the input!
Noobert
You the real MVP. Thank you for your hard work!
I really loved the resource one.

They can build waagh towers and all vehicles at 50% discount, they also require correct waagh level and production building to be on field as well as specific scrap pile(as there are 3 scrap pile sizes).
1) And trukks don't have normal armor, they use heavy armor.
2) Deffgun lootas are normal infantry and benefit from normal infantry upgrades, not vehicle upgrades, same for tankbustas. If it doesn't have heavy armor, it doesn't benefit from vehicle upgrades.

Can someone explain the Waagh tower tech mechanic? How do you use waagh towers to upgrade your tech level?
Netput
Thank you for reporting. Fixed both. Also fixed the correct upgrades for Nobz and Tank bustas (they both showed the wrong set)
Towers drop scrap over time. Your units can pick up scrap to boost their abilities/give shield/other misc.
You need a certain amount of Waagh towers to unlock units or buildings. Example: you need at least 3 waaagh towers to build Nobz

Cool, thanks! Is that documented somewhere? I couldn't find it in the codex online or in the codex in the beta. It would be nice to know which units are locked behind towers and which I can build at the start from buildings. Also it would be nice to know how many towers I need to build to unlock each unit.
Netput
I haven't seen it only anywhere either. The tooltips ingame give you all this information though. That is the best i can offer right now
Sambino
This info is great man! I had no idea that the Nobs counted as vehicles for upgrades. Ill have to alter my build
.
Also does anyone know if you need a Mek Shop to build Truks from scrap with the gretchins? I was wondering wether you could do it with just the relevant tech?warrgh level.

Ye this ++heresy redacted++ doesn't make any sense, people who don't look up this codex and are just playing the game have 0 idea.
DeamoBD
Thanks for this.
Netput
I am fairly sure you need the tech level (enough waagh towers) and the correct building placed before you can build a certain unit from scrap.
So the answer is: yes
You are welcome!
