Any feedback is welcome. I'm 2 battle wagons and about 20 sluggas away from having everything on this list, so I will probably fill that out over the holidays. If you see places for improvements that I can make to it, now's the time to say it! I really wanted to fit my close combat dread in it, but I feel the 3rd wagon > dread.

***UPDATED LIST*** I made several changes, and presented an alternative below.

Warboss will die... make him slogging riding in some of wagons. Lootas can die easily too as your army is assaulty they will not have their targets from turn 2.. Get planks for vehicles. Get 2 big shootas and extra armour for wagons.

Drop Loota's, get planks as was stated above, fill out burna's, get Ghazzy and mount him in a BW with some Boyz.

You need weapons on those wagons, or you will be imobiliztes really quickly, planks are a must. I'm on the fench about Ghazzy.

Ghazzy is a monster that can dance with a dreadnought thanks to EW, and granting an auto 6 on your waaagh fleet role is amazing. Removing as many X factors as you can from an ork army is a great thing.

Yes ghazzy is meh lovah!

I agree about the weapons on the wagons. I forgot all about them. However, do you really think the boss would die given the current configuration? I've been victim to a boss hidden behind battle wagons before. For the most part, if you can't see it, you can't shoot at it, and that can make him effectively invincible until he hits your line.

I'm loathe to lose lootas, but I'm looking at the list now. I agree that Ghazghkull is a beast, but for 125 points, you can have a warboss that has everything he has except his Waagh and EW.

Also, what's with the planks? Yes, I get the value of a plank, but with 3 rollas popping vehicle armor when they ram, what's the value of an extra guy throwing an occasional hit that usually has to roll a 6 to connect?

I updated the list above. Feel free to critique.

Ok.. you miss extra armour on wagons in both lists which is not good i think. If you can hide the boss well the you can use him on bike but its too risky. Ghazzy takes luck factor off your waagh and when he has got his 2+ invul he can take anything by himself. Planks grant extra killyness for a buck. In second list mega armoured boss has no ride since he uses two seats. You big mek has CC weapon but no protection like cybork body etc. Snikrot... i dont like him much because after he comes he will kill something and then die. And he is expensive too. I would go for ghazzy upgrade for your HQ and some koptas instead.
