The Army comes to 1493, however i was thinking of dropping the 2 units of stormboyz in favour of something else considering 5th ed i was thinking another unit of trukkboyz and some warbuggies to add some more mobile firepower to the army, also just as a note, i am converting to looted wagons out of tau tanks i found lying about i wonder would this be frowned upon in the GT or would they be okay to use C&C Welcome

Not enough staying power. I'm still of the mind that an ork list build around trukk squads won't cut it because in the end 12 boys just don't cut it. And yes, unless you are combining the two stormboy squads, I'd drop them altogether. What you've got is an army of Nob delivery systems. Might be nasty on the charge but by turn 4 you're pretty much done.

if that is the case what do you suggest i want to stay with a mobile ork army, or do they just not cut it in tournaments and i mayaswell stick to building large mobz of boyz instead can any alternatives be offered?

Well after some thoughts on that heres an updated list (still sticking with a speed freaks list though)

Holy crap, judging by the avatars I thought the OP was arguing with himself.

I have nothing useful to add except that I don't particuraly like Looted Wagons with Boomguns when Battlewagons with Deff Kannons are so much better.

Ozymandias, King of Kings

What Ozy said (although I don't think much of Killkannons either). Looted Wagons are simply awful. When all's said, they're 100-odd points for a big gun on Rhino armour. With a little luck, SAFH armies can keep them neutralised without even sacrificing Trukk-popping.

So Looted Wagons are a definate no no, im thinking then of taking two units of warbikes and a unit of deathkoptas with megablasters and therefore is there any other unit i should think of including, maybe a cheap battlewagon or something?
