This probably belongs in tactics

Not all armies have to be mech to power game

Nidz cant mech at all, Orks do fine with kanwall/greentide, BA can use DoA, etc

Its mainly the power of being mobile though in an APC that lets you ignore most small arms fire while either moving much faster than normal infantry can or can provide weapons that would normally encumber a unit. Some armies just cant handle the amount of vehicles some players get on the table or cant out maneuver the speed.

I think it's generally agreed that Orks have a hard time with the better mech armies.
AV 14 is a bitch for Orks.
