My Tyranids eat Orks for lunch. I use Warriors, gaunts, a single Flyrant, a Tervigon, and typically a Living Artillery Node (Biovores destroy Orks). And Zoanthropes should do fine against his vehicles, and use the small blast against his boys.

I enjoy playing orks and playing against orks. they are funny.

I have yet to play a game against Orks that I didn't enjoy. Orks are great fun.
Orks are pretty easy to counter. Just bring weapons that can deal with large hordes, which should not be hard as Tau.

Playing against orks is the most fun position to be in 40k because they actually lose models even when they're doing well. Even when you lose it's nice to feel like you killed some dudes and put up a fight, even if the 80 boys you killed were tactically insignificant.

Also it's seriously not hard to get some damage in on the side of a unit where lucky stikk guy isn't the closest. Shoot more vulnerable units until his unit gets closer, then surround his unit and open up on it. If you're letting the DLS boss take saves or lookout sirs for low rate of fire ap2 in early game, then you aren't doing your shooting priority right.

Only thing tough about orks is their numbers. They are not super durable, lack very few special rules and don't have any strong combos/formations. Not even invuls in cc and no way to ignore cover/ jink saves out side of flamers.

If they have trukks S4 guns can glance them down and make them walk.

Oh noez! The ork player fielded boyz! It's as awful as fielding sisters in a sob army, right?!

**the_scotsman**

Really? I don't.

CAD. 2 Squads of Trukk 'ard boyz. Several 10-man gretchin squads.

Fill with everything else.

Obsec grots make themselves a pain, claim objectives, stand in front of important gak, boyz go in to krump stuff, and you get loads of extra space for fun toys.
