Generally, AV13 dreads are the ones still usable. So Ironclads, Furiosos, and Soulgrinders. Maulerfiends also get consideration because they're pretty cheap, extremely fast, they have an invul save, and they can regen HP.

I wish Walkers could still at least contest objectives, though. If they had let them do that, as a special rule different from other vehicles, I think you'd see them much more than you do now.

I agree with this. Walkers not being able to contest is stupid.

Do you guys think that the Ork Deff Dread is even somewhat viable? The thing is that it lacks any kind of delivery method aside from walking across the board at regular infantry speed.

It is quite cheap, it can repair itself, get two skorchas and can still get a lot of attacks on the charge, but only at initiative 2, which makes even IG Veterans a threat in close combat. It can also get a 5+ cover save while in the open if in a list with a KFF Big Mek, but the Kan wall list got killed off by 6th edition due to killa kans being AV11 and only having 2 hull points.
