This is my first list from the new book.

FYI i don't play in competition, i just play for the fun and beer

warboss w/ twin linked shoota & bosspole & eavy armour 75

30 boyz(sluggas) w/nob(klaw & bosspole) 3 x rokkit launchers 250

12 ard boyz w/nob(klaw & bosspole) in trukk w/ grot riggers 200

30 boyz(shootas) w/nob(bosspole), 3 big shootas 210

looted wagon (my old basilisk) w/boomgun & 2 big shootas & grot riggers 120

3 kans w/ big shootas 120

10 lootas mek w/KMB 150

16 stormboyz w/nob(klaw & bosspole) 232

4 bikers w/nob(klaw & bosspole) 140

grand total 1497

my thinking on this list is this

there is enough fast stuff to get across the table and cause some dramas/distractions early then the bigger units can catch up and get nasty. the ard boyz are in the trukk to give them a chance when the trukk eventually gets wrecked. the warboss can tag along with one of the big boyz squads for protection.

this list is based heavily around what i already has from the last 15 years collecting orks plus some of the kool new gear that looks awesome(trukk and bikers)

as i said at the start i onl play against my friends and i dont enjoy thrashing people in 1 1/2 turns so i know it could be better but i like the feel.

constructive critism most welcome

ps. it was most hard to leave wazdakka out he seems impressive

Maybe just for fun run a biker boss with pk cybork body attack squig and bike of course and put him with your bikers to help with leadership issues. With only 4 when you lose one you gotta test on ld 7 and thats 120 pts runnin off the board.

Maybe a few more lootas to get the fearless rule with being over 11.

Also if your gonna walk your boyz then give them shootas if you dont have them modeled correctly it shouldnt be a problem in friendly games
