In my Black Templar squad I am finally adding an assault squad. My question is =
Do I run a 5 man squad w/ Melta bombs and a Rec Chaplain w/ twin Lightning claws
or
Drop the Chappy and add either more assault troops or add a second Landspeeder w/ heavy flamer and melta?

The second choice is likely to be better.

5 man assault squads are not going to do much. Even with a chaplain adding the re-roll, your still horribly, horribly exposed with shooting.
2 is the better idea IMO.

Also littlenibbler Orks aren't about armour saves.
Orks are about having too many models on the table, and wasting the other guy's time with your movement phase.
Orks are about having the toughest units on the table.
Orks are about not caring about how many bodies are left in a long winding trail until the squad is down to less than a third its starting strength.
Orks are about rolling more dice then you can count without the aid of a calculator or a pen and paper.
Orks are about having totally fething insane characters tearing gak down like Doc Grotsnik, Ghazghkull or Snikrot.
Orks are about being too fething awesome to die...

If you are like most BT players and use the Accept Any Challenge vow, chaplains become pretty useless. If that is the case, drop the chappy for sure in exchange for more troops.

Are there really other vows?
