hello world of dakka! I could use your assistance. I can not beat IG. there is an IG player at my local game shop that I just cannot beat. He runs

Command squad

Bunch-o-infantry squads with a intermingling of lasscannons and autocannons

x3 vendettas with tri lass cannons and veterans

x3 bassilisks

always say the point you are playing at. always always

But it sounds to me that your demons needs to load up on at least 4 herralds, 3 princes and 4 squads with bolt of tzeentch.

Friend of mine uses a fairly cheese like Ork list that probably won't win you any friends if you use it too often.

warboss on bike with biker nobs, including pain boy all with cyborg bodies
It basically consists of three trucks full of boyz with a big mek with KFF
bunch of Killa Kanz and a deff dread.
Snikrot with kommado

basically everything is getting saves, it a real pain in the to deal with.

I was in a doubles tournament this summer playing orks and my ally was deamons. We ran lots of boyz in truks with lots of plaguebearers. It seemed to work pretty well and I am guessing it will in your situation too. If the IG player wants to effectively take down the PB's they are going to have to use some anti tank weapons against them effectively drawing fire from the trukks, but the trukks will get the charge off on turn 2. Oh and boarding planks on all your trukks.

flank with massed koptas w/rokkits ( and a buzz saw or three) to take out basilisks?

sneak snikrot and kommandos w/ two burnas on from his edge to torch IG support squads hanging back by his edge/ assault basilisks w/ krak grenades?

Always play super aggressive with the orks.

Mass as much as you can right with their thickest compliment of firepower and smash it before it smashes you.

Shoot the stompy stuff, stomp the shooty stuff.

i tried running a 4 trukk list with KFF and battlewagon with ghaz and meganobz. turn 1: trukk #1 dead, trukk #2 dead battlewagon dead, ghazgull:dead, Meganobz dead.

lol, it didnt go well (and we are playing 2k)

In 2k I am usually running 6 trukks and 2 BW's

If you're going first, it should be a cakewalk.

Field three solitary Deffkoptas with Buzzsaws. Put them at the setup mark. Scout them 24" to get as close as possible to the enemy tanks (to within a minimum of like 12" or something). Then the game starts. Move them 12", hopefully threatening side armor of the tanks, fire Rokkits at them, and then assault stationary tanks on turn one.

Alternatively, hold Koptas in reserve and go for the outflank.

Snikrot+ Kommandos + A PK'd Warboss (Ghazzy is super fun) + 2 Burnas = Multi-assaulting as many Infantry Units as you can whenever you come out of reserve, OR pushing your opponent towards the center of the board (as in, towards you) and not firing heavy weapons for a turn.

Zagstrukk and his Stormboyz can assault the turn they Deep Strike, instead of shooting, and Zagstrukk has a Powe Klaw.

Hold Trukks in reserve, when they come in, move them 13", get out 2", fleet (if you're fielding Ghazzy, fleet 6"), and assault 6" for a good ol' 27" assault, hopefully within range. Hopefully, the threat of Snikrot and Deffkoptas will push your opponent's units up into range. Otherwise, get your Trukks out of sight of enemy guns and get close ASAP.

Warbikers have a permanent 4+ cover save and can move real fast across the board.

3 Battlewagons filled with 15 units of Lootas each, with a KFF Mek sitting in one obscuring all three might just be the best gunline in the game. Focus fire on one threat at a time until there's nothing left.

A unit of 30 Cyborked Slugga Boyz + Mad Doc Grotsnik is a ridiculously tough field of bodies that can shrug off a lot of punishment.

Just a few thoughts.
