Hi All

I have 3 tournaments coming up in the next 3 months, each 1750pts and I am fielding a footslogging force; this is the list I have come up with. I am a few points over though there are a few areas in the army where added points could be found if needed. So, let me know what you think:

HQ
Big Mek + Kustom Force Field + Boss Pole + Burna = 110
Big Mek + Kustom Force Field + Boss Pole + Burna = 110

Troops

25 Shoota Boyz + 2 Missile Launchers + Nob + Power Claw = 205
25 Shoota Boyz + 2 Missile Launchers + Nob + Power Claw = 205
25 Shoota Boyz + 2 Missile Launchers + Nob + Power Claw + Boss Pole = 210
25 Shoota Boyz + 2 Missile Launchers + Nob + Power Claw + Boss Pole = 210
10 Gretchin + 1 Runtherd = 40

Elites
10 Lootas = 150
10 Lootas = 150
12 Tankbustas + 2 Bomb Squigs = 190

Fast Attack
3 Deffkoptas + 3 ML + 2 Buzzsaws = 185

Total = 1765

Rokkit Launchas are generally not worth it in boy mobs, I would drop them, consider Big Shootas instead.

All your boy mobs need bosspoles.

Tankbustas are a far from competitive choice, more Lootas instead. Run them 2x15 too.

Split your koptas and give them all Buzzsaws.

Yep - good idea about the Koptas.

If I was to go with Big Shootas and more lootas, leaving out missile launchers and tankbustas do you think the army will be effective enough against vehciles that are more than a rhino?

Agreed lose the Tankbustas, split the koptas

also why do you need two KFF? One KFF would have zero problem covering four units...

Missile Launchers? Haha someone plays marines! We orks use Rocket Lauchas which are even louder but prone to sailing off into the horizon

I agree with the Big Shootas, RL are not necessary
Agreed with the 2 Big Meks as well, one is enough and the forward squads can give a 4+ instead of a 5+ to the squads behind.

Now for the tankbustas. They are not better than moaar Lootas but I actually like them. If you keep them protected you can get results from them especially if you meet a walker heavy opponent where Klaws and Lootas dont quite cut it.
