Boyz are the Ork’s grunts. Armed with Sluggas and Choppas, these melee infantry can charge nearby squads, slowing them down through brute force. Known for their savagery and lack of intelligence, these close quarter soldiers spur on their allies with crude shouts, granting them temporary bonuses in battle. Boyz can loot scrap in the field, bashing together makeshift armour and becoming so-called ‘Ard Boyz.

In terms of cheap melee meat-shields the Boyz are top-notch. Not only do they have a lot of health once they've looted scrap to make armor when compared to other first-level units at equal upgrade levels, an upgrade in the Pile o Gunz makes their Shout also reinforce up to 3 units...anywhere they want. This makes them one of the only known self-reinforcing squads in DOW III which consequently makes them incredibly effective at tying up squads in melee while absorbing high amounts of ranged fire.
