At the very least, you are going to have to deal with three powerklaws. WS4, STR8, 3 attacks each. That's nine attacks, 4.5 wounds, 4 dead guys. The other....NINETY orks have 270 or so attacks (0r 180 attacks if they are shoota boyz) to make sure that the other two guys die. Yeah...I'm not seeing this one. I've done it once. One other time it failed XD. The first time I lost 2 guys to powerclaws and saved the rest. The next time the dude has a proxied Ghazkull and he ripped them apart. The thing is that because he tries to compact so many orks in, a lot of them don't make it into combat... It's around 2 guys per squad... Even with 2" and getting attacks not many got to attack. And the PK's do hurt, but the normal boys hit on 4's and wound on 5's. Meh. If my opponent lets me use the updated FAQ I normally take TH/ SS terminators and that ruins most PK's. Idk I just think the list would look MUCH better with a nob bikerz unit or Lootas. TBH though, I would concede to anything Pepper says (apart form the multi-charge working very well, see wall of wraithbone also that is a good tactic against this http://www.40konline.com/community/index.php?topic=157393.msg2064039#msg2064039) mainly because he plays orks and I play angels so yeah XD. And I know terminators arn't wraithguard but the thing is, even if I don't get that PF attack and if one guy if left your taking a massive amount of no retreat saves! I think blood angels would do this better *Dante + Corbulo = preferred enemy + furius charge and if its Death Company.... It was probably a bad example to bring up but again, my main point is that TO ME it looks like it could use a powerful unit in it.

Yeah, Dashofpepper is right. your maths is pretty shocking and anyway IMHO you need to practice your maths. The kanz will have a 4+ cober save thanks to the force feild an the boyz will have a 4+ cover save thanks to the kanz. i did the math and is a standard 10 man tactical squad shoots my boyz, 8 bolters, 1 heavy bolter and 1 flamer, i dont have anything to fear.
24 " away i face 8 str 4 shots and 3 str 5 shots, 6 bolters hit, 2 HB's hit, 3 bolters wound, 1-2 HB's wound, cover save of 4+ from Kanz, 2-3 dead boyz. Big whoop.
Boyz move 6", Same again from marines. 2-3 more dead.
Boyz move 6" then assault 6". 24-26 boyz in combat. sluggas, 96-104 att, 48-52 hit, 24-26 wound, marines armour, 8-9 fail armour saves, Nob not included.
Orks stomp all!

as well who would make it that easy for a multi charge i thinks most ork players know all about the fearless multi charge and would stay well away from making it easy i think either biker warboss with nob bikers or none at all your warboss on foot or bike will still be your best av-14 killer just less manoeuvrable on foot

YEah thenks for that.
i dont really know what to replace for Nob Bikers, my amount of boyz is crucial and i cant really think of anything else, a Nob biker squad can be pricey though so i dont know how it will work in 1500 pts, in 2000 pts, definately.
A guy got a Guard army at my local GW and he is planning to take as many Leman Russ's as he can.
PLease tell me what to replacce with Nobs.
Cheers, Old Sledgeaxe.

stormboyz can save your ass, they did save mine... it's just you have to put 20 of them in a squad, and of course Nob with bosspole and powerklaw... you can either keep them in reserves and deep-strike them, or you can hide them behind a hill, wreck, and wait for their chance... they can also act as A-T unit due to nob.., but i do not reccomend that unless you're desperate
where's your battlewagon?  putting 20 ork boyz and a warboss inside can do a lot more than 30 footsloggin' orkz... you just need to trim the list there and there so you could afford it!
as this list is very indecisive, the battlewagon can be a solid backbone
