Greetings fellow Green skins! It's your happy go lucky neighborhood Snik lover looking for some advice on a proper Ork Army build!

Normal games I play are around 2000. Tanks... Ooooh the BANE of my existence! Thankfully the person I have been butting heads with at the table has been kind to make some suggestions to my Army... Something about force fields and battle wagons? I'd also like a few ideas of new models I can add to my army. Here is a rough guess of my Army from my last Tourney.

Warboss- with a Power Klaw and a Shoota Rokkit Combi weapon

Weirdboy

Nobs- 10 (normally with Warboss) 'Eavy Armor and Power Klaws

Kommandos- 10 With Boss Snikrot

Ork Boys- 40 Split into groups of 20: 2 with Rokkit Launchers

Trukk- Twin Linked Rokkit Launchers

War bikers- 6 twin linked rokkit Launchers (I think I got that wrong and meant to put one of the twin linked guns)

Deff koptas- 3 Twin linked rokkit launchers

Deff Dread- 4 buzz saw Arms (cannot remove! I was such an idiot!)

Burna Bomber - 2 Big bombs and 10 Missiles

2000 points are you willing to go higher?

My suggestion (for a single Chart Army no allies) is swap the werid boy for a big mek with burna, cybork, KFF, and bp

Give the Nobs a Battle Wagon with deffrolla 2 big shootas and two rokkits (dedicated transport) (put the warboss and the big mek here)

add an elites choice of 8 Burna's ride them in above wagon with the big Mek, nobs and boss

take two more battle wagons for your current boys armed as above ..ride the boys and thier nob in it (2 x heavy choice)

add a fortification (aegis defence line) with quad cannon

add an elites choice of 8 lootas ... (in aegis line)

add one more heavy choice of 3 big gunz (cannon) with 5 extra grotz to man the quad gun...

move the deff dread from heavy to troops ( big mek allows)

count the nobs group as a troop choice

add one more trukk ..add 22 more boys to go in the two trucks each with a nob
and your speedfreak army is rolling and fully outfitted...and fills the Formation chart nicely

Might want to add one buzz saw to the deffkotas as well..just one

I agree with morfydd about dropping the weirdboy, I dont think there is enough boys to take advantage of the extra Waaagh, and a KFF would be beneficial here, especially for something like the battlewagon or dred.

Just wondering if all of your 10 nobs have power klaws, as its probably not necessary to give them all one if thats the case.

The ADL is nice, but only if you have something to chuck behind it like lootas or big guns. At the moment you're lacking on anti air so lootas would work well.

Taking a few battlewagons for each unit of 20 boys, then another with the nobs, warboss and KFF mek as suggested above is a bit different to you're current style of army but would form a solid list. I'm not a fan of burna boys though as they're expensive and often (for me) targeted.

Burnas have come in handy, especially when melee is against me (or ranged for that matter) Also the trukk makes for a good cover when I got my boyz behind but to each his own! thanks FOR THE ADVICE MY FELLOW SPORES! I AM HIGHLY TAKING ALL THIS INTO CONSIDERATION!
