Firstly, more boyz, quite a few more. You are going to want roughly 3 mobs of 20, with a PK nob in each.

I agree, if you bought this army, you still need to buy a lot more boys.
Custom built battlewagon sounds nice though, i have one myself.

Is there anything wrong with what is in the army already?

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Talk him down if you can... haggle.

Its cheaper than buying it all new from GW but (personally) I like to walk away thinking I got a great deal.

But either way... Yes it is worth $200.

Nice looking list!
I agree that more boyz are needed. I personally really like my lootas as well- its nice to have a fairly decent shooting unit but keeps it fun by having to roll a D3 to see how many shots you get each turn!

You'll also need more warbikes, not sure how many you want, or if you want a squad of warbikes, but you need at least a total of 3, so 2 and the one in your list.

The three mega-armour guys would run $60 to buy new. The battlewagon would also. If you want to play orks, $100 for that stuff is certainly not a bad deal. Having more models (and especially the extra boyz) will allow you to experiment with the army.
