So ya I know a little overboard on the deffkoptas lol but i think it'll be fun. Adjusted the list to make it a perfect 2000

.

Not gonna lie...I would be tempted to drop the Deff Dread and take more Lootas...

Kan Walls always suffer from lack of anything ranged so more Lootas never really hurt...

Very true but the dread looks awesome! lol

Sadly I don't have anymore lootas right now other wise I would take closer to 24.

**stompydakka**

yea. also you are a bit over 2000... is this just a casual game?

**Vyse**

Pretty much.... If they push the subject I'll just drop something real quick, but no its not a tournament or anything.

Drop 1 boy off each boyz squad, You'll be 1,999pts then.

No wait. Drop the Bosspoles, as the mob is fearless until you've lost 20 boyz.

**Vyse**

I've decided to drop 2 lootas thus making it a perfect 2000...when i calculated the list I forgot to calculate in bosspoles anyway so actually the list i posted is 2030 not 2015.

**Eyclonus**

Don't drop the Lootas, drop the BPs and 3 boyz, Lootas are the wunderkind and two lootas are worth more than the BPs and 3 boyz.

**Vyse**

hmmm I'll think about it

**Vyse**

So should I drop bp's and 3 shoota boyz or 2 lootas?

**Stubby**

My list is very similar to this, Except i am running 3 Solo Koptas with buzzsaws, Spending the rest of the points left on filling out lootas.

I suggest only one unit of grotzookas, they are fun, but you need some anti tank.

**WarOne**

I believe most people have already suggested what I am about to, but if not, here goes a summary then:

Remove the Big Shootas, as your army will probably be hoofing it across the field and running most of the time.

All the Kans should have rokkits, as you already have Lootas to do lots of damage and shoota boyz for dakka.

Max out as many Lootas as you kan (hur hur).

Shrink the Deffkopta squadrons to 1 vehicle each. That should free up about 200 points.

With the spare points, add a minimal grot squad that comes out of reserves from the table edge to secure an objective for you. That way, your army can ignore tying up any part of a boyz squad for objective sitting.

At 2000 points, expect many armies to have answers for all those Kans. Find out what makes those armies work and adjust your list to compensate.

I have found this to be very true. I love using my kans but on any battles over 1500 - there are just too many things that can pop them. 9 kans is overwhelming at 1000 pts, at 2k - not so much.

9 Kans can be supplemental to what an Ork player may take. Now the problem is is that Kans are a significant investment- about 25 percent of a list AND takes up all the heavy slots.

For the Kans to work, target saturation is key.

Consider using Rokkit buggies instead of Deffkoptas as your fast attack slot permits. 9 more vehicles with the potential to pop transports is definately worth a look, and their cost would be similar to what rokkit kans would cost you.

Taking a few nobs in Battlewagons is also possible as well. 2 Five man squads of Nobs with some extra things gives you two extra targets at a reasonable cost (each unit with BW should cost about 300 each). Supplement with a few Trukk boyz and use the Kans as a replacement/reinforcement for the Lootas.

Play around with the list after a few matches and see what doors open opportunity wise for your army to develop.
