So they can deep strike, deploy from the pod, then be shot to bits before getting to charge?

Well, they would need a big orky pod that can hold 32 boyz, and be able to drop half of them on the 1st turn.

FNP isn't that useful on a unit with T3.
A farseer casting fortune on them would be very useful, however.

Instead of drop pods, rather deep strike LR Crusaders full of orks. We would actually do that, unlike those cowardly blood angels.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe. |

Farseer. Farseer in any army.
Mind war, runes of warding, fortune, doom, wychblade. And that's not all they bring.
If your army could make use of rerolls for anything on a unit that can pick individual models out in shooting or close combat with a S9 weapon against vehicles on a model with an invul save.
Good for anything, good for any army.

Thinking more about this, I have to +1 here. Fareseer/Eldrad powers are awesome force multlipiers that can be used in any army to great effect.

As a Tyranids player, leman russes would be nice.
I don't even play those last two armies, but I can imagine those would be cool things to have  I'd like something fast that can zoom around the board and pew pew things, maybe pop a tank or pew pew at MEQ units. Everything in CSM is too slow, IMO
I've never used land speeders before, but I can imagine they would be useful for that purpose, besides not having a flickerfield.
