Welcome to da WAAAGH!!!

1. Shootas are superior in a footslogging list. Sluggas are good in Trukks, because they can get into combat quickly and without taking casualties. A Speed Freeks list like the one you have in mind would use Sluggas.

2. He's the most reliable Warphead you can take. "Oh I got 'Eadbanga even with my reroll? I'll change that to Squigify your Abbadon!"

3. Burnas are awesome with a Trukk. Lootas are awesome in general. Kommandos with Snikrot are nasty because they can come in from any table edge. "Oh look you got some Dark Reapers, here comes Snikrot!"

4. I use one. He rocks. 2 Skorchas and Grot Riggers and he's ready to go.

5. People will cry cheese when they see Ghazghkull kill off their Captain Lysander. People will cry in general if you field 45 Lootas. Mmm.

6. I don't like Meganobs, so I'm not sure if they're worth it. Nobs with 'Eavy Armor, some Pks, a WAAAGH! Banner, and a Painboy would be my basic gear. A Battlewagon for a transport is better for getting Ghaz and his Nobs there because Battlewagons are hard to destroy.

7. Speed Freek lists are viable, oh yes. I personally run a footslogging list but my friend runs a Speed Freek list and people find it hard to deal with.

Yep, that's about right.

Warpheads only really shine in footslogging lists, since they can make the most use of the 'WAAAGH!' power.

Burnas in a Trukk is a fun idea, since the Trukk is Open-Topped, meaning you can shoot out of it. Drive-by Burnin' anyone?

That may be a problem, but think about it: Is it possible to kill enough Boyz with shooting before they hit your line? You -will- make it, just with not as many Boyz as you had hoped. Hell, 1 mob at most will be completely gone. Running really big mobs of 30 will mitigate this.

'Ard Boyz screening for da horde? No, that's a job for Grots! They cost a hell of a lot less and were MADE for the job. Plus, 3 Runtherds with Grot-prods can take down The Nightbringer

You're saccing bodies anyway, since only 12 Boyz fit in the Trukk. Getting 12 Boyz in a Trukk roughly costs the same as getting 18 boyz, without the Nobz of course.

11 with a Nob. 11 with a Nob. 11 with a Nob. You need that pk.

That 20 Shootas mob sounds like it's legging it. Speed Freeks/Footslogger hybrids don't mix at all.

8 Nobs is good, just as long as it's got a Painboy.

Snikrot's funny. "Deverstayterz? Heres Snikrot coming to sodomize their bums!"

Old Zogs is good in a footslogger list. Either of the latter 2 options are good though.

If Ghaz is with those Nobs, they won't need a Bosspole, since Ghaz comes with one
