On the game, I bet it was all dice. Ive seen games just goto poop from bad rolling. One game I played against my oldest brother he literally rolled 6 1s for saves. Naturally I shouted YAHTZEE and I thought it was funny. That was the greatest shooting phase Ive had playing Orks. The best part was, after that, I charged his squad

Hippy, get your self a Vindicator and more template weapons. Get some rocket launchers as well. They are cheap, and very versatile. When I played SM/chaos, I used to take a devastator/havoc squad with just rocket launchers. My brother takes one in his tactical squads, and just sits there shooting. Orks take heavy losses getting shot like that

Like freeky said, I usually take a dev. squad with 4 missile launcher. But I did not this time... I did take a whirlwind, but was only able to get two shots off with it before it was destroyed. One shot scattered 11" off target the other was able to kill a single nob. But I agree that those lightly armored xenos scum fall to them easily. Or should if they could hit and wound any thing. I also had a full assault squad, that I let set back and ended up getting assaulted. My plan was to let them sit back and wear down his main boyz mob with fire and then mop them up with the assault squad. But by the start of his third turn they where still at full strength, and on top of me. By the second turn he had managed to destroy my whirlwind, predator, stern guard squad w/razor back transport, one weapon on one of my dreds, and was able to keep them both either shaken or stunned, plus the 7 man scout squad. However I knew those where sacrificial lambs any way.
