Here's my last Kanwall list: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/281818.page#1374793

I'm considering modifying my Kan Wall a bit to allow for some flanking. Basically I'll be dropping a Big Mek and 30 boys from the middle and picking up Kommando's and some Stormboyz.

My thought is that I can limit the movements of my opponents by not having 1 big hammer coming at them.

Here's my new list:
HQ
1 Big Mek - 110
---1 PK
---1 KFF

Elite
10 Lootas - 150
10 Lootas - 150
15 Kommandos - 265
---1 Snikrot
---2 Burna

Troops
20 Ork Boyz - 160
---Shootas Nob PK Bosspole
20 Ork Boyz - 160
---Shootas Nob PK Bosspole
20 Ork Boyz - 160
---Shootas Nob PK Bosspole

Fast
15 Stormboyz - 220
---1 Nob PK Bosspole
3 Warbuggies - 105
---3 TL Rokkit
3 Warbuggies - 105
---3 TL Rokkit

Heavy
3 Killa Kan - 135
---3 Grotzooka
3 Killa Kan - 135
---3 Grotzooka
3 Killa Kan - 135
---3 Grotzooka

Thoughts? Criticisms? (I'm not ready to use Deffkoptas, currently a big fan of buggies)

A couple of things that stand out to me... and take them with a grain of salt.

1) You only have 1 Keffmek and he doesn't have a Cybork body. If I were you, I'd drop his PK, give him a Cybork body, and a Skorcha.
2) Consider slimming down the Kommandos to add another Keffmek. You'll probably end up enjoying it.
3)I would say that you don't have enough Kans. You have 60 boyz that you're planning to block with 3 Kans and one Keffmek?

Sorry, i typed the kans out incorrectly. The list has 9.

Have you considered a Dread instead of a Shoota squad? Could help draw fire away from your Kanz. And if your opponent ignores it, it can smash their line up with 4 DCCWs.

deff dreads are bad. i have a dread bash list as well... and it just never ever does anythin.

I've considered using Deff Dreads quite a bit, and tried them several times.

They just seem too slow to ever make their points back.

Kans at least have an effective ranged weapon in the grotzooka.

I just have figured Dreads are good in CC and are cheap enough to just walk/run up the field with a cover save until combat. Also, helps draw fire from your Kanz.

I've used them for a couple games. They rarely make there points back. Not worth it in my opinion after having play tested it. I started using a weirdboy instead adds a little fun to the list haha. or just pack a truck up with burnas thats aways fun to....


Also the power klaw on your big mek is worthless. If he gets in base contact and someone decides to hit him, hes just going to die since he has 2 wounds and a 6 plus save.
