So I was thinking about how fun this list would be to play. Let me know what you guys think.

Let me know what you guys think. I know its a mish mash of stuff, but i kitted the koptas out so they would survive a little longer, creating a nice distraction for a turn or 2. By then, my Battle Wagons will be close enough to do what they want, as well as my Grotzookas will be in range to pie plate. Turn 3, my 60 boyz will mop up and assist. I know the MANz arnt that great, but i love the model and i have a bunch of them =).

What you have here is the "Hammer and Anvil" approach. 1/2 your squad is roughly geared to move ahead of a slower contingent of orks. Using Deffkoptas, you hammer the opponent in towards the slogger units and hopefully they get caught between that and the anvil.

What this essentially means is that you must be very careful how your approach your opponent because there is a good chance with your forces divided in half the way they are that one part will be grinded to dust before the other. In all seriousness, I would turn the Meganobz into regular nobs with a Painboy, effectively giving them a much better chance to survive than the regular Meganobz.

Slugga Boyz should be shoota boyz. Slogging shootas are better than sluggas.

Otherwise it is a fairly decent list with no other complaints (aside from Deffkopta Bigbomms, but hopefully each kopta is equipped differently in order to take advantage of wound allocation).

Yeah their kitted out for wound abuse.

I want the boyz to run every turn, so I wouldnt be using the shootas.

I do completetly agree with the different Nobz, and ill probably do that once I get motivated to buy and paint the models.

Drop the big bomm (they suck and you need to pass over the enemy), 15 burnas is exesive, I'd say 12 max. Really that many templates just becomes redundant. No grabba claw, take a baording plank, BOSSPOLE, if you listen to nothing else listen to that. The dethkopta units don't need to be that big, they work well solo, or in pairs, they are not battle units, not that tough, basicaly scout, and assault any devastators or other nasty shooty units, and tie them up for a turn. I'd say take 3 solo and naked dethkoptas, with the points up save from that and other pair downs buy another unit of boys. MANZ are made of ass and fail. Sometimes they work, lot of the time they don't. You are working in three waves right now: dethkoptas, battle wagons, then boys, condense that into 2. Or at least make the first wave more of a delay wave, since battle wagons are your only armour watch in terror as your uber expensive units of MANZ and burnas are blow to bits before your eyes. If you want a sample list...

The thing with dropping the koptas down to single units is that now i have 3 more really easy KPs and their not going to survive as long. I just need them to reach turn 2, or last long enough for the distraction. I have the bomb on there to abuse wound allocation. I know it sucks haha

I agree about the grabbin klaw, but Its already on one of my converted models so I just throw it on there for the WYSIWG thing.

Taking away some burnas for the bosspoles is a good idea. I def want to change the Nobz, but they will have to be MANZ unit i get the models ect.

While solo suicide kopta squads are preferred, using a 3 man squad can be good too. But keep in mind those points can be useful elsewhere (i.e. another Battlewagon, a Bosspole for those Nobs, which is a good idea I didn't think of, ect).

Alright guys, I changed my list around a bit. Let me know what you think.

Definately would still try and add bosspoles somewhere.

Suicide kopta should also come with a buzzsaw- Buzzsaw doubles as a powerklaw for the unit.

Keep tweaking!

updated ^^

Digging the list for sure and like the others have said, I'd swap those meganobs for normal nobs with a painboy as soon as you can.

What exactly is your plan for the last battle wagon on your list? If you're going to use it to ram people with the deff rolla, give that sucker a RPJ to help you catch stuff that much fasta'.

If you also want to be really fancy, remember that koptas are capable of infiltrating and use that to your advantage. People tend to forget about the edges and that gives you a chance to outflank, sneak on, and take a free shot before ripping something apart with your buzzsaw.

Much better, the twin linked rockit launchas are useless as you get to shoot one time. Then assault, point better spent elsewere. I'm on the fence about buzzsaws, they can be useful, but often they end up not really helping, they only boost it to strength 6 (because no furious charge) but the armour pen is nice. They are however lots of points. Which could be spent else were. Also remember that your kans each carry a DCCW, so don't shy away from a scrap, especial against tanks. For WYSIWYG, if you explain your not using grabba claws people won't mind, just say the orks broke it before the fight.

Oh the third battlewagon is the one that the burnas will be riding in. Its just going to Deff Roll units or Vehicles and burn whatevers left.

I love the TL rockets. Re-rolling the miss seems to help a ton, and if they didnt have the potential to cause a str 8 hit to armor, they wouldnt be a big distraction.

I'm on the fence about the Buzz Saws as well. I dont really know how well their going to work out, but ill try them.

After my Kans unload the grotzookas on turn 2, their going to rip open tanks on turn 3...unless i need to clear more infantry.

Thanks a ton for the imput guys. I'm still open to suggestions.
