Alright guys so I have been running a Footslogging list ever since i started, and moving around 150+ models is becomming a pain in my ass. Its starting to bring the enjoyment of the game down for me a bit. So, I came up with this list. I hope to hear what you guys think. I'm looking to mainly have fun with the list. I would like it to do fairly well but it doesnt have to be a tourney winner by any means. Just want to have some fun.

So this is the list. I wanted something that would be awesome to play and this seems like it would be a blast. I might take out the Trukk for the KFF Mech. I was thinking he could buzz around the field depending on who needs the cover save...but in reality, he will get blown to gak on turn 1 or 2 haha. So yeah guys let me know what you think about the list. Thanks a ton!

Hmmm Any ideas? haha

So...it's kind of a Kan wall/Deffwing hybrid? Sounds cool to me! The issue with the overall concept is that you might be handing your army over piecemeal instead of delivering the 1-2 punch you intend. If your opponent is heavy on power fists or Assault Terminators, you're could be in a world of hurt. It's certainly an interesting concept to play with, though. I'd go for it. You'll have issue with heavy armor, but what Ork army doesn't?

As for list tweaks, I'd drop some Boyz to put a big shoota or two on each Battlewagon. You'll probably never shoot them, but it's nice to have something to remove when you get a weapon blown off.

The Trukk is going to need to be super mobile on the off chance that your opponent is an idiot and lets you have your mobile cover save longer than 1 turn. I'd stick a reinforced ram on it so you can zoom through terrain.

I think it sounds like a really fun army. Good luck with it!

Hey thanks for the reply man. I would love to drop some Boyz for the Shootas on the wagons but i have this wierd OCD thing where every army i play has to have max squads for their Troops haha. Plus, ive run into way to many situations where if i would have had less than 30, they would of run off the table.

I may end up dropping the KFF Mech all together as well as the trukk. Im not sure how well 1 KFF Mech will help me out THAT much. I could def use those points for more MANZ and the Guns on the wagons.

Its cool because you have a billion boys, a billion kanz, and a billion nobs and wagons... all lead by Ghazzy

So do you think this list could be semi Competitive?

Should I take rockets on the Kans instead of Zookas? It would help with my anti armor, but i was pretty much relying on the MANZ to tear apart armor. PK attacks own transports.

i would think about it. BS of 3 with 9 rockets could do some damage. but then again a pk with 3 attacks each at S9 is very hard to stop but once the MANZ jump out then are kinda stuck if you dont have your BW there for them to get back in.

Since they all have deffrollas, I'd imagine the BW's will just be rolling around tank shocking stuff, so there should be one in the area if you need it.

OP, if you want the list to be competitive, you're going to have to stow that "OCD" and get some shootas on the BW's. They'll make a big difference. I don't recall if Ghaz lets you take Nobz as troops, but you should flex one squad there for extra scoring goodness if you can.

Rokkits on the Kans might be a decent plan since you aren't incredibly mobile. Grotzookas are so hard to give up, though. :( You might also consider adding boarding planks to the BW's for a little bit extra mobile vehicle killing.

Here are my thoughts, and they are the same thoughts I've expressed with my brother, who is also an ork player. Ork players tend to have some sort of compulsion to continuously increase the size of their waaagh, which is self defeating. Unless you can find a group of people (and a group is more than one) who will regularly play you at 2500 points, then buying 2500 points is a waste of money, and more importantly time.

Now if you do have a group that plays 2500 points, my apologies.... if not, consider this your intervention

My gaming group usually plays 2000 Point lists. I just wanted a solid 2500 list because we often do campaigns which start at 500 and end at 2500. My 2000 point list is this same list minus a squad of MANz and a battlewagon. I only run 5 man squads in the battlewagons though. I do however agree with you that Ork players tend to build their armies as BIIIIG as possible and never play near the points they have haha. I think im close to 4000 or 5000 points...guilty.

@MilmanAI. I can def make room for the shootas, ill have to play test and make small tweeks to the list.

Thanks everyone for the advice. Also, just to add a crazy fun sort of element to the list, would it be bad to drop the KFF mech and the trukk and add a mech w/ a Shock Attack Gun? Their not competitive but fun as hell. Also, Ghaz does allow you to take a Nobs squad as a troops choice.

Thanks for the imput guys

This needs to be purchased with a unit. You cannot purchase it and put the Mek in it. Stick him in a Battlewagon with some Mega Armor Nobs.

Overall, a fun list. High Strength CC all around.
