Good day everyone! I just post this out of curiosity, as I'm prolly gonna get rid of my Ork anyway. Is there a viable list that use Dread Mob Formation from the codex Supplement? I never used any Kans or dread, so I have no idea what kind of option you need and if it's viable. Thank you !

Well it's not going to win any Tournaments, but it is a very fun list to run!

With my Dread Mob I take a Gorkanaut (KFF) and Morkanaught.
Dreads with Skorcha and 3 Power Klaws.
3 Kan Mobz are armed with x3 Grotzooka, x3 KMB, x3 Rokkits

Agreed.

Dreads should definitely stick to Skorchas or Klaws - they don't have the ballistic skill to cope with anything more sophisticated.

Kanz - the grotzooka is an awesome weapon but suffers from being impossible to snap fire and not being quite good enough for antitank work. Rokkits or Kustom Mega-Blastas is a trade-off, mostly depending on how scared you are of Gets Hot.

The 'Nauts - at least one Morkanaut with a Kustom Force Field, but a Gorkanaut has more tactically flexible dakka.

The Painboy is pretty useless on his own, but a Big mek is obviously priceless. Put him in the Gorkanaut and you boost its toughness markedly, give him Da Mega Forcefield and you make the naut REALLY hard to stop.

I'd pair the formation with a second one - maybe a green tide? Since the walkers all get Ere We Go! you get to run/charge every turn if you want to, and you can bolt the painboy onto the green tide for 100+ Feel No Pain ork boyz.
