I know its a mix of stuff, but through my ork play testing, I have found that a little bit of everything makes for a stronger force. I know Mega Nobz are really bad, but I love the models so I'm using them for personal preference really. Let me know what you guys think of the list. Thanks.

Cybork body on your boss and a kombi skorcha would be great too.

Problem is half the army is on foot and the other half in vehicles. This will end up leaving half the army behind and making those on foot a weaker point in the army.

Oh, you don't need two big shootas on a wagon because it can only move and fire one

Do A warboss w/ pk, cybork, 'eavy, bosspole, shoota for 105 and big mek w/ kustom force field. Take a small nobz mob (6-7) and like 60 sluggaz boyz all in battlewagonz. And to add stuff put in Deffkoptaz and lootaz.

This is a pretty solid list, although I have some commentary.

Boyz mobz in most peoples' opinions exist in one of two states:

11 Slugga Boyz and a Nob in a Trukk

OR

29 Shoota Boyz and a Nob on foot.

Shoota Boyz are generally superior on foot because of their 18" Assault 2 weapons. It doesn't seem like much (BS 2, lol) but 40 shots can and will put a dent in almost anything, irrelevant of BS, Strength, or AP; how do you think Imperial Guard work so well? Slugga Boyz have guns almost exclusively for that extra assault attack; if you're within shooting range, you should be assaulting, not shooting. Gods forbid you shoot and kill JUST enough models such that you're out of assault range.

Anyway, that said, the entirety of your army is mechanized save two units of Boyz. For the same cost of 2 full units of Boyz, you might be able to squeeze in three Trukk Units. Just a thought, think about it.

I could toss 3 Trukk boyz squads out there, but TBH, 12 Boyz tend to die off pretty fast. The 2 units of slugga boyz are planned to arrive after the Nobz, Burnas, and Lootas, do their damage. I played a list similar to this but with 2 Units of Kans instead of the other Battle wagon and it did pretty well. I just think that having the third battle wagon with the Deffrolla and the 20 boyz will do some nice things for me.

I'm pretty stuck with the Mega Nobz which kind of sucks but its all good. Im going to use them until i get some cheap nobz to use.

I like Koptas, but I dont like giving up the kill points just for a turn one stall. The Lootas will provide enough fire power as a distraction until my BWs can start deffrolling.

What do you guys think of the Lootas? are they worth it. this will be my first list/game that i have actually used them.

Thanks for all your input guys =)

Oh and the 2 big shootas on each wagon is insurance...Ive run into way to many situations where I get 2 weapon destroyed results and I lose my mobility...that cant happen haha

12 Trukk Boyz storming into 20 Guardsmen: Guards kill 2 Boyz and take 12 wounds themselves, then the Nob picks off one more.

12 Trukk Boyz storming into MEQs with 10 swings: 1 dies, then 10 boyz kill 3, then the Nob kills 1 more. Win combat by 3.

12 Trukk Boyz storming into 5 TEQs with Lightning Claws: 3 die, then 8 boyz kill 1, then the Nob kills 1 more. Lose combat by 1, but kill two TEQs.

haha i don't know what to do man. I have four trukks sitting here, but I have had amazing luck with the 2 squads of 30 foot sloggers.

The only thing im really worried about is the battlewagon with the 20x Boyz. Ive never run that before so im not to sure how a squad of 20 boyz will do.

Also, are they 2 units of Lootas really worth it? I know orks BS sucks but the range and str on those guns are amazing.

I could drop a unit of Lootas and toss another squad of Burnas in that third Battle wagon. Ive run that before and its a pretty sweet time.

Let me know what you think. Once again. Thanks for the advice. I'll see in a few hours if i should have taken it and went with the trukks =)

Actually, you convinced me. Updated my List. Now i have another conflict in my brain.

Should I, Drop a Lootas Squad and add a Burna Squad in place of the 20x Sluggas.

OR

Keep it as is

DO NOT drop your lootas for burnas. ever. Especially for eldar and nids, lootas FTW!
