[DC 1.2] The Complete Ork Dark Crusade Tech Tree - Updated for 1.2!
The Complete Ork Dark Crusade 1.2 Tech Tree
-------------------------
This is complete...it includes build times, tech levels and costs for all structures, units and upgrades - now updated for DC 1.2! Aren't I good to you guys? Everything you need to know about the ork tech tree is in here.
Note: For structure build times, they are taken when you have 2 or more gretchins in your gretchin squad (gretchins do not build any faster if they have more than 2 members in the squad, point to note. They repair faster with 3 but don't build any faster).

Ork Tech Tree Changes From DC 1.11 to DC 1.2 At A Glance
Overall Orks haven't had their tech tree tampered with too much in DC 1.2. We see a few modifications and tweaks to build times and costs but overall nothing major. Orks have been given back some of their old DoW upgrades as well which is a good thing!
A quick look at the changes from the bottom of the tech tree to the top. Green is a buff, red is a nerf, blue is a new addition or neutral change in the tech tree.

Ork Detector Units
Since there is still some confusion about this, I'll list the Ork detector units here as well. Orks only have three:
- The Big Mek
- Mega-Amoured Nobz
- The Warboss
