'''Kommandos''' are Orks fond of sneaky type of warfare, experts in laying ambushes and unsuspected attacks.
 
==Description and Abilities==
Ork '''Kommandos''' epitomize the Orky virtue of low cunning. Nothing makes a Kommando happier than creeping up on an unsuspecting enemy, his mates slithering through the undergrowth at his side. When the time is right, the Kommandos will burst from their concealment, slashing, stabbing and shooting their stunned prey before they have a chance to strike back.{{Fn|1}}
Kommandos are viewed with suspicion by the majority of [[Ork Boyz]], on the rare occasions they are viewed at all. These small-unit specialists do not socialize with the other [[Orks]], and sometimes exile themselves from the tribe for months at a time, even permanently divorcing themselves from their warband in more extreme cases. The Kommandos prize intelligence and initiative, and some of them are even able to read. Not for them the thrill of a massed charge or a turbo-powered race to the front line in a badly-made trukk. Instead a Kommando gets his kicks from slitting throats and spreading panic behind enemy lines before launching a perfectly timed ambush. The horrified look on the faces of their prey, who assumed they would be able to see the Ork attack a mile off, is tremendously rewarding to the members of a Kommando mob. These scare tactics are epitomized by [[Snikrot]] of the Red Skull Kommandos, whose name is a byword for terror upon [[Armageddon]].{{Fn|1b}}
