I stopped using kannons on my BW's mainly due to wanting them moving forward, 12" each turn, you can only fire one gun, with two BS and a kannon on each BW takes up points you cannot use unless you stay still, which with this list is not what you want to do or any orks.

Try taking out one BW and placing a unit of grots to hold a home objective, I do this all the time and get them in cover where no one can LOS, it's surprising how many games they win, as most people are too worried about the BW's and mega nobs, try adding three single unit deffcopters as fast choice to harras his flanks (scout, fast, flank,turbo), this will divide his fire and they get a good cover save from turbo boost. Good choice on deff rollers I just love running over stuff. D6 S10 hits on landraiders is hillarious.

k good stuff yo, i will try 2 fix it up next time i get on

Well Kannons can be fired as a defensive weapon, so they are not all bad for sure.

You don't need both BShootas though. You can drop one of those for sure.

All BW's should have a rolla.

And here I thought it'd be nothing but MANZ=)

All good advice. I normally run my wagons at 130 points.....you could save around 75 points downgrading those 3 for the MANZ and still have highly functional Battlewagons.

I calculate 130 points for the warboss, BTW. Also, if you need the points, attack squigs are pricy IMO.

It's gonna be fun and threatening.....but GK and Eldar w/Howling Banshees will be your bane. Or anything that spams dice rolls like other Orks and Tyranids.
