Need some advice for making a shooty list and how to use it good (tactics), is this list still good in the 5 ed rules? (if the rumors are true)


Comments are welcome !


Outlandos

for a truly shooty army... I don't think the komandos fit in...

you have a very diverse army, which is kool... but you're low on troop units, and they seem like they will be huge in 5th ed...

sounds like only troop units are scoring units, so more boyz da betta!

I would pump up to at least 3 units of 30... if you do the math, 30 is way better than 20...
11 kills to force a test vs 21 kills to force a test.... so to keep your scoring units alive at the end, 30 will prove more durable...
my shoota boyz have rocked in assault, so losing the komandos wouldn't hurt too much in the end...

lootas rock, so I wouldn't mind seeing 2 units in a shooty army...

I am wondering whether 2 looted wagons would last longer than 1 battlewagon... I know the armor's better, but they have to divide their shots, and if you stik the KFF mek near them, they get the obscured protection... plus, with the SAG, you get 3 pie plates a turn..

let me know what works for you...

Here is my new army list i changed the battlewagon for 2 looted wagons and took more boys

I think the list pretty solid, the only thing what troubles me are the kommandos ( i love them , the problem is that they cost so many points)


Outlandos

I think you are over on the Force Oganizational Chart by one Heavy Support.

I like kommandos but this list seems like it does need it. You couple spend the points a couple ways though that are really interesting. Stormboyz come to mind and making a second Loota squad.

Oh and if you find some free points after messing around with it give the SAG Mek a burna/klaw incase he accidentaly teleports himself.
