Would like to have 15x Loota squads but don't have the points at this time.

Feedback welcome. It's meant to be a themed shooty ork list. Hopefully it is decently playable as well.

Always run lootas in units of 5 or 15 and nothing else as it goes a long way to getting around the problems these units have with Ld

Damn I cant wait to the GW legal team codex comes out now there is a dex that will conquer all.

Bump after edits. Looking for more feedback.

Where do you suggest I trim points to afford 15x Loota squads? The list feels really tight at 2000 pts.

The 2500 point version of this list is a lot better imho. More Boyz, more Lootas.

33 lootas make 2 units of 15 and find points for 1 more unit of 5

Thus, After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd

What will you encounter that needs the firepower of 15 lootas? Just curious if it would be better with smaller units.

I like the look of the list but it lacks what 99% of ork armies lack, ranged AP. The Kans can do it, I have them in my army for that reason, but my Big Mek has a KFF, keeping most of my army nice and happy.

I really like the idea of a shooty list but I think there's too many problems with BS, AP, and Ld. Whenever I have taken a large mob it's ran. Like Jubear said you need to use different mob sizes to get around the Ld problems.

Try using small sized mobs and maybe even use some warbikes, they work a right treat.

Why have the Big Meks got crap attack guns for? Give them KFFs which make your force live lnoger. Other than that good army.
