I am currently going to play in a Tournament at 1850 points, however, my list is at 2000.

The easiest way I see so far is to remove 2 Lone Koptas for 140, then -2 'eavy armor on 2 Nobz. (Which were just slapped on them anyways.)

If you have the time and models, its usually better to just rebuild your list at the lower point value

I agree with the above.

As for strategies of what to take out of your list to get it to points, that really depends on what the rest of your army list looks like.

Do NOT remove the Deffrollas. They are a key component to an assaulting ork like that seeks to win.

You could kill off a few nobs and have the unit still be effective. I started to shave off a few nobs in testing to see if I could field more burnaboyz.

I won't I was doing some tweaking.

So far the best I've done is limit the nobz to 333 haha.
