hi,
main question is of course, will this work in a semi competetive environment?
are deff dreads worth the points?
have i got enough punch left if the dreads get blasted to bits?
and what can i add for the remaining points to get it up to 1500 points?
well this is the stompy goodness i came up with so far (1380 points at the moment):

HQ

Bigmek - 125 points
-power claw
-custom force field
-cybork body
-'eavy armour

3 killa kans - 150 points
-3 rokkitz

3 killa kans - 150 points
-3 rokkitz

as for the plan:
-meks go with the boys, 1 in each mob
-killa kans go in front with boyz and dreads following close by so all get cover saves
-stomping towards the enemy (hopefully) shaking of any shooting losses and rip everything apart as soon as i get in close combat

C&C needed!

Ok, so here it goes:
Drop pk, cybork and eavy form meks... You really don't need it... If you must, take only cybork...

Next, deff dread is useless... Especially in kanz wall... Drop them out all without thinking

Add one more rokkit kanz...

Drop the rokkits form boyz...

So now you have extra 360 pts:
I'd add kanz, thats 150...
Add 2x5 lootas, that's another 150

Then as I see you have your unspent pts:
Add two squads of single deffkopta with buzzsaw (140)
Add 10 gretchins to babysit home objective (40)
And I'd add third boyz squad... YOu can get pts by droping boyz from other squads... Try 22 boyz plus nob, then add more...

That would be it

/Ignore me forgot lootas are special arent they -.-

Lootas are exactly what every ork list misses

Second the loota advice.

Kamikaze koptas?

Well, kamikaze koptas work much better than normal ones... And it will make your opponent be careful with deployment... Plus, if he isn't to familiar, he will probably lose at least one tank... They have worked quite well for me in every game... If nothing else opponent had quite hard time taking them down, and left rest of my force to advance (although I play wagons, so one turn of not getting fired at is all I need )...

As for lootas, i feel that they are one of rear units that can give fire support to the rest of your force... They can pop down transporters, kill light infantry , low-armor skimmers such as vypers or landspeeders... And they do well in almost every ork list... Just love them

Ditch the 3rd deffdread and rokkits on boys, get another mob of kanz armed with grotzookas (epic for taking out infantry) and profit!

Grotzooka is excelent ai, but kanz wall doesn't need ai... It needs anti-tanking.... I'd still add rokkits

Big Meks are alright, I've found a burna to be slightly better as you strike that bit quicker.

Troops fine except Deff Dreads. They're not that good and BS2 firing rokkits won't hit much. Try putitng triple rokkits in all Boyz units, weight of numbers means you should hit something, but for long ranged anti tank get Lootas.

You want triple Killa Kanz btw.
