I have made mostly a footslogger list with a buncha boys some MAN's and a bw
and stuff


So my question i guess is what should my new list be, preferably orks but im willing
to try a new army so wat army should i start and why =D

sorry that it's written in a confusing way

more dakka

Gunline Orkz or Dread Bash deffinately... or Kult of Speed... or Loota Spam deffinately one of those four... oh, or an all grot list or a Kan Wall... oh, or you could try taking two wierdboyz and hoping for a WAAAGH! every turn... actually there are a lot of choices what do you think looks cool?

I'd pick up a few more Battlewagons and some trukks.

I'm with Luna here. Footsloggas demand Dead Stompies and Grot Stompies. Wake your dang Mek up and get him workin'! Also Grot Big guns!

Orks can do anything that any other army can do and do it better than they can. However, they cannot do everything that any other army can do. Make sense? If you make an ork assault army, they'll out-assault any other army in 40k. If you make a shooting army, you can outgun IG or Tau. If you go foot-slogging, or mechanized, or kan-wall....all those options make you a completely awesome army, but there's a catch. You can only do one of them at a time with an army list.

If you combine a mechanized and a foot-slogging list, you're going to lose. If you have part assault, party shooting, you're probably going to lose. Your strength is in being able to pick something and be completely awesome at it. So before giving you advice on where to go next with your army, you need to pick a theme and build around it. If you want a bike army, or a shooting army; an outflanking army, mechanized, assault, figure out what your playstyle is and start building your units and armylist around that idea.

THAT is the strength of Orks.

When you decide what you want your army list to be, start by explaining what your intent is, then post an army list along those lines and we'll work from there and make suggestions.

It really depends on what you're looking to do with your army. If you are playing for fun and looking for an army with balance and personality, that's one thing. If you want to just win, that's another.

There is a lot of valid advice and a lot of invalid advice, which really just depends on what you want out of your army and not necessarily who gives the advice. Maybe if you refined what it is you're looking for, the DakkaDakka community will be better able to help.

Ultimately, trying out new things and playing the game will answer most of your questions and give you a feel for what you want to run.
