I never really played Kan-Wall in 5th edition, but since 6th edition has shaken everything up I wanted to test out all the options. I have not played IG too much and I'm looking for some advice on this list. I have played it a few times and I was pleasantly surprised how dominant it has been so far, here it is:

I am guessing these are squadrons? That is the only way it is legal as you can only have one fast and heavy for allies.

The shootas really need Nobs w PK's. Maybe even Boss Poles. Kans almost seem out of place to me. Seems like a Mechanized list should have BW's in there.

Always take Nobz and Nobz always take PK and BP. No arguements, just do it.

I Agree, take BWs not Kanz. (That much AV14 is killer aswell)

I don't think its as needed as it was in 5th edition. If you pay for the Nob with a PK and a BP it costs 7.6 boyz. For a long time it has been an auto include to strap a PK on a nob, but for certain lists I don't think it is anymore, and I think people should consider it as an option.

Dislike. I think the dakkajet could be superior to vendetta. Nobz needed. I have a fully painted Kan Wall. Couldn't even make it work in 5th.

I mostly run a BW list, but I was just playing with this list on Vassal. I disagree about Dakkajets being better than Vendettas. First off in what context? When talking about taking them in Ork armies, Vendettas seem to be the better option, because if its one thing we orks lack, it is reliable, sturdy, AV 13/14 killing machines, and three twin-linked lascannons and armor 12 out class the dakkajet for only 10 points more. I'm not saying that dakkajets are bad, I am only saying I would rather bring some lootas, or a BW with 4 BS and have some strength 9 twinlinked shots shooting over them, then have a dakkajet.

Admittedly I know little about vendettas.
