I normally play a Kan Wall but was thinking about changing it up and going with something a bit different. A lot of what's in this list, I actually have and would be darn near WYSIWYG. If my math is off, I blame it on being tired.

Here we go

Big Mek w/KFF - 85 Pts
Warboss - w/PK, Cybork, Attack Squig - 110 Pts

20x Slugga Boyz, Nob w/PK, 2x Big Shoota - 165 Pts
20x Slugga Boys, Nob w/PK, 2x Big Shoota - 165 Pts
20x Slugga Boys, Nob w/PK, 2x Big Shoota - 165 Pts

10x Nobz, Painboy, 10x Cybork, 3x PK, 3x Big Choppa, 1x Bosspole, 1x Waaagh Banner - 390 Pts

5x Burna Boyz
5x Burna Boyz

1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, 4x Big Shoota - 150 Pts
1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, 4x Big Shoota - 150 Pts
1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, 4x Big Shoota - 150 Pts
1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, 4x Big Shoota - 150 Pts

1x Trukk, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates - 50 Pts
1x Trukk, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates - 50 Pts

Assuming everything is legal and math was right, should be 1750 points.

Idea is to place the Boyz squads (one with the Big Mek attached) and the Nobz squad with the Warboss in the battlewagons. Then run the Burna boyz in trucks and have some fun with fire. The burnas feel a tad out of place, but if I can get it to work, should be fun (maybe keep them hidden in the Battlewagons?)

Anyway, thoughts would be nice. Especially on the Nobz squad -- I don't know the best way to load them out.

WAAAGH!!!

Trucks can only be taken as a dedicated transport, so as the list is now you cannot take them. Mobs of 12 or fewer boys can take one (or Nobs, but then you cannot take the BW as a dedicated transport to have 4 BW's.) 20 boys and a big mek = 21, BW's hold 20.

That also means if you fix it the burnas cannot start in the trucks but can embark in them turn 1. Then you have 12 boys or some nobs foot slogging. A little more tweaking and I think you will be fine.

Agree with J Roc, the trukks are illegal in this list as far as I can tell. I was gonna suggest looted wagons as a cheap alternative, but your heavies are filled. As for the nobs, with that loadout i'd go
(All have cybork)
PK
PK bosspole
PK waaagh banner
BC x 3
normal x 3
Painboy.
To make them all individual I would throw in some combi weapons. Kombi skorchas are nice, especially considering how cheap they are, and they kinda add to the fluff of the burnas. I would change it to:
PK
PK bosspole
PK kombi skorcha
BC
BC Kombi Skorcha
BC Kombi rokkit
Kombi skorcha
waaagh banner
Kombi rokkit
Painboy.

That gives you complete control over wound allocation, and some nasty little templates, all for an extra 20 points

I fail at math. So taking the advice and doing some tweaking (mainly getting math right and removing Burnas) here's attempt number 2.

Big Mek w/KFF - 85 Pts
Warboss - w/PK, Cybork, Attack Squig, Shoota/Skorcha Kombi, 'Eavy Armor - 120 Pts

19x Slugga Boys, Nob w/PK - 149 Pts
20x Slugga Boys, Nob w/PK - 155 Pts
20x Slugga Boys, Nob w/PK - 155 Pts

10x Nobz, All Cybork, 1x PK, 1x PK/Bosspole, 1x PK/Kombi-Skorcha, 1x Big Choppa, 1x Big Choppa/Kombi-Skorcha, 1x Big Choppa/Kombi-Rokkit, 1x Kombi Skorcha, 1x Waaagh Banner, 1x Kombi Rokkit, Painboy - 410 Pts

5x Lootas - 75 Pts
5x Lootas - 75 Pts

1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, Red Paint, 4x Big Shoota - 155 Pts
1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, Red Paint, 4x Big Shoota - 155 Pts
1x Battlewagon, Deffrolla, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, Red Paint, 4x Big Shoota - 155 Pts

1x Trukk, Reinforced Ram, Grot Riggers, Armor Plates, Red Paint - 60 Pts

Should come out to 1749 points.

So now, Big Mek can ride in a battlewagon wit da boyz.

Then we upgraded the Warboss to make him even harder to kill. Him and his Nobz are gonna be in the Trukk behind the battlewagons.

Lootas are there for anti armor options (I play eldar a lot, need something to kill the fire prisms)

Added some red paint to give me more movement. If I can get in range, things should get nasty.

Thoughts?

Anyone?

Sounds good. If you're playing eldar, you're right, you NEED lootas. Falcons give me tonnes of grief, all because I insist on sticking to the Evil Sunz fluff .

Just make sure you shield the trukk containing the nobs/warboss. It'll be a huge target.
