Ok here is my Speed freaks army at 1700 points, I'm not sure yet about some choices but i'll give you my reasoning for some of them. The Warboss on bike is going to join the rediculously expensive unit of nob bikers to share in their feel no pain. The Nobz are an expensive unit to be sure but i just couldn't resist having 19 wounds worth of orks on the table with 4 powerclaws, a 4+ save, an a 4+ cover save AND feel no pain. Since that 4+ cover saves takes care of most of the saves i didn't take any cyborg bodies except on the warboss. 3 regular sets of slugga boys by the dozen with a nob with a powerclaw and a transport is pretty standard (I took 1 looted wagon for the hard case mod hoping it lasts a little longer and 3 trukks for their rediculous speed.) I took a unit of 15 'ard boys with nob and dropped them into the looted wagon. I stuck with just a rokkit launcha on all vehicles as a primary weapon since big shootas aren't defensive in 5th ed so i saved points there. I intend for my army to be mostly on the move so i don't wanna buy guns i can only fire at standstill. And i have 6 deff koptas that will be doing the tank hunting with missile launchers. Any comments and tactical advice are very welcome.

Well it's a good start.

1 looted wagon is no good, you need multiples to bring just one. Bring trukks for transports before looted wagons, always.

Those small deffkoptas won't do anything. Bring that as one whole unit instead.

All the trukks are for the boyz squads?

I use a similar build, but I have a hell of a lot more (and cheap!) shooting than you do in this list.

not alot of troops

ok amount of rockets.

Just not many models at all. 48 boyz or so so like 55 models not including truks and Koptas.

Seems alright i'm no ork player though.

I already have the looted wagon modelled up so its a shame not to take that, as for the rest of your advice, i traded in 3 biker nobs for a mob of 20 shoota boys that i'll let footslog along and grouped the deffkoptas per 3 instead of two.

correct me if im wrong but i thought in kult of speed all your units had to be loaded in transports? thought no foot slogging aloud *shrug* still little new so if im wrong my bad

Well thematicly and fluff wise this is so, on the other hand its not a rule in the codex so its not actually required.

How about take the looted wagon as a boomer?They are not good at transport,when you have trukks.

Hmm... I guess there isn't anything preventing me from just calling the kitbash of a rhino and a chimera i made as just another truck with a diffrent model either is there?

now see that looks a lil better.

I Love hordes of Orks personally.

Made a few more small mods, I Reduced the 20 man squad of Shoota Boys to 12 and gave em a trukk too, i also traded in the looted wagon for another trukk, i did have to give up a powerclaw on one squad of slugga boys too afford it, but that also ment that i could take the boardingplanks from the trukks intended for the squads of shoota and slugga boys without powerklaw nobs. I also gave all my trukks reinforced rams because most of the people i will be playing wont mind if i have my orks ramming and disembarking from their trukks that way.
