So I received Assault on Black Reach for Christmas, and have decided I would like to play Orks. I currently play Tau and have had success with them, but I definitely want to play more than one army. Orks are almost a complete 180 degree shift in tactics compared to Tau, which is something I want to try. I also like that Orks are loud and obnoxious .

Anyway, I made this list really by what I thought was cool in the codex. I definitely want to keep the Deffkoptas, as the AoBR models are some of my favorite GW models (the regular Deffkoptas are actually really, really lame looking). Other than that, I'm not really super attached to any one unit. I mostly just play friendly games, so I really want to play a more fun Ork army rather than a standard Kan Wall or Green Tide. I like the KFF a lot, and from the one game I've played with Orks (a 750pt game) it seems to do pretty well. The Shokk Attack Gun seems like a really fun thing. If only a Big Mek could take both.

Like I said, I made this list based on what I thought seemed good and fun. All C&C is welcome.

Ghazghkull and the Big Mek each join a unit of 11 boyz. Lootas would hang back for some AT, hopefully in cover. Basically I want to keep as much as I can in the KFF and hopefully have some good positioning for a turn 2 Waaaagh.
