i have a 1600 point army but no idea how to play them other then push the the nobs and orks into the opponent and get thraka in there as soon as possible. i also like to throw rockets at units ( i have 12 in my whole army lol) any suggestions? im new.

But my main question is: how do i use weirdboyz? i have one but dont know how to use it. i got my brothers old army and love it, but need help with a good strategy because i plan on playing others soon.


ARMY LIST
-Thraka
-Def Dread
-3x kopters
-30x ork boys
-10x Nobs with claws
-weirdboy Warphead
-3x Burnas
-2x lootas
-2x battle wagons

Well I would look to truck up your boyz and reserve the wagons you have for nobz, lootas or burna boyz.

A warphead is kind of a conundrum fo orks- potentially great AT weapon, potentially adding to the power of the Waagh. I think I would like a warphead if my intention was to play a pure greentide and assault my opponent but if I was looking to mechanize my orks, I would leave him at home - probably getting a big mek with KFF instead.

I do agree with the Weirdboy comment, they just don't fit in a mech list. As for the army itself, your going to need to get some other models to make it a decent list. Depending on what kind of army you want to run (ie.battlewagon spam, greentide, kan wall etc etc) will determine the models that need to be aquired. Going by what you have, I might suggest a BW list. If you go that route, pick up a KFF mek, and definitely get some more lootas. A few trukks would also work well to ferry the boyz around

The best thing I've seen weirdboys used for is sticking him in a full mob of shoota boyz, you get ere we go and pop up behind a enemy unit then shoot the gak out of them that's if you get ere we go though. Big Meks are more competitive though

yea im def gonna go a mek army so this has helped lol thanks gents
