Simply Lots more boyz! Boyz are the best thing about the ork army but only in large numbers.

Sounds like you got the Ork half of the Assault on Black Reach starter.

Best bet is to get lots and lots of Boyz. If you prefer shooting, make 'em Shoota Boyz and then suppliment with Lootaz and/or Flash Gitz. If you prefer melee combat, make 'em Slugga Boyz with Choppas and mod them into 'Ard Boyz so that they can reach their targets and hack away.

I'm a bit of a newbie, but that's what all the advice coming my way seems to indicate.

that is what I got. A friend and I split the cost, and he took the marines to boost the army he already had and I started a new ork army

al i would suggest to start with:

add 40+ boyz.
a unit of 10-15 lootas work well.
warbikes are worth thier weight in gold.

thanks for the help guys, I'm going with Sluggas, Lootas, and maybe a squad of Bikes, then deciding from there.
