Title: Warhammer 40k Now With 100% More Deck Building?

As you have all probably heard the new Ork codex is going to be released with it's own set of tactical objective cards. I just saw this posted.

Supposedly GW is going to introduce a mechanic where you customize your own Maelstrom of War deck. I think this could be a pretty cool idea. You tailor your deck to better your at. For example if you are playing Necrons you can pull out the ones where you score points for manifesting psychic powers. Or if you're playing Tau you can pull out the ones where you score points for killing characters in a challenge.

Well that explains quite a bit.  The rep wasn't able to tell me very much about the Ork deck, other than it's going to be allocated.

I think this is a GREAT idea and, if handled well, can be really good for the game.

I have heard that you can put your codex objectives in in place of some of the other cards.

This is an awesome idea. I already love Maelstrom of War, This could really iron out the kinks assuming it's handled well, not to mention it makes every army play fundamentally different. It's been a long time since i've said this, but go GW!
