Deff Dreads are troops? Or did you mix the troops and eltes around?

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.

Big Mek as HQ lets you take 1 Deff Dread (Per Big Mek) as a troop choice.

I like it. Very Orky How well do you fare on the table with this list?

You are gong to auto-lose 2/3 of your games.

While a mek lets you take a Deff Dread as a troops choice, vehicles in a troops choice slot may not hold objectives.

Kaltak is right. Dashofpepper is (as usual, hm...) also right - it says on page 90 of the rulebook that vehicles may never capture an objective, even if they are taken as a troops choice.

Think I learnt this from Dash, but now I don't even worry about objectives, my plan is all about tabling my opponent. Not that this list looks scary enuff to table much.

If you're having fun with it, and aren't very concerned with winning then go for it.

You must understand that for an ork a day that starts off killing something with your bare hands, and ends with those same hands being chopped off in battle, is a good one.

What's betta than one choppa? Two choppas!!! Two choppas is one more than...is one times da...IS LOTS MORE FUN!! WAAAAGH!!!

I think that is a super cool list! My only suggestion is to get a forgeworld Mega dread as they are not Apoc only. It would make a sweet centerpiece model.

It's just the forgeworld "experimental" rules. Mega Dread starts on page 3. Doubt anyone would ever let you use this in a tourney.

If this list is JFL and for fun then it looks awsome, and will no dought deliver. The mega dread looks sweeeeeeeeet, and a nice center piece.

In the Webway.

Good idea include a mega dread, it'll be a laugh why not?

The list may not be tournament winning but its decent and fun to play. Id make one change: more buzzsaws on the deffkoptas, 1 per unit of 5 isn't enough IMO.

Make sure your deffkoptas target HW squads and big-gun tanks so that they dont shoot up your dreads and meganobz.

The Meganobz need trukks! Other than that, it looks like a blast

"Orkses never lost a battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!"

I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

Meganobz too slow for this, either trukk 'em or drop'em.

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...

I'd say BW, trukks are way too fragile for an expensive unit like that.

If you want a chance in objective missions without having to sacrifice a bunch of points from your "zilla" units, I'd recommend 1-2 minimum-size units of gretchin.

Dirt cheap (each unit costs the same as one Meganob), they find the nearest objective in cover and go to ground while your big boys do their job. Your opponent will usually be too preoccupied to devote real shooting to them, and you just have to be careful to intercept anything moving to assault them.

I also agree with Despoiler52--drop either one unit of Meganobs (or one unit of Deffkoptas) for two Battlewagons--your Meganobs aren't gonna do much if they can't get stuck in!

I'd cut these out.
Add in a unit of 15 lootas, then spend the rest on gretchin units to build up numbers for capturing.

Koptas should have rokkitz allways, since they give them something over other units in the ork dex.
Also, drop the buzz's, they will just waste points and get nowhere mate.
The TL rokkitz on them are all the anti-tank they need.
I'd also drop the big bomms, they really dont do alot against anyone. (they hurt swarm, but dont really dent them to any extent)

Suffused with the dying memories of Sanguinus, the warriors of the Death Company seek only one thing: death in battle fighting against the enemies of the Emperor.
