Hey guys, I play orks and im going for a kan wall. I have a Warboss, 30 boyz, 5 nobz, and 3 deffkoptas. My question to you guys is what should I buy first. Then afterwards what should I do? Thanks, Rod!

Conventional wisdom:

All footslogging boyz mobs should be as large as possible, so: get more boyz.

More nobz would also be nice. If you like the AoBR models, buy another set of AoBR orks online, then start buying Kans.

The basic foundation of most kan walls:

6 or 9 kans (depending on army size) - kans with rokkits
KFF mek(s), you'll need two once you get enough models rolling
Several full-size Shoota boy mobs w/ Nobs w/ PK, BP; plus special weapons, usually big shootas unless you're desperate for anti-tank

Optional elements:
Warboss, if you need a killy unit, but very optional
Lootas for ranged anti-vehicle support
Deffkoptas/Rokkit Buggies for more anti-tank
Deffdreads

So, my advice to you, other than getting the kans, is get your KFF meks and boyz, then start filling in the rest.

Thanks!

@skarboy what order should i get these things in?

For the Kan Wall, the Kans themselves require a hard investment of anywhere from 60-100 dollars for plastic kans depending on how many you need. I would wait because of cost and if you change your mind.

As for boyz, those should be the first priority as boyz can fit into any army.

You should check the other kan wall thread you started. Plenty of info there...

Boyz and Kans should be first. Your going to need lots of them.

Besides that you probably want at least 2 squads of lootas to deal with transports and other light vehicles.

Oh and more boyz, lots more boyz.

Uh....you created this very thread, with this very topic, and have two pages of advice.

Why did you just make a good one with so much good advice being given out in your other thread?
