Hi guys, just trying to put the finishing touches on a tournament list. This tournament is objectives based and forgeworld-permitted.

I have updated my previous list based on suggestions from this thread, as well as stuff I've thought off during the day.

This force is Orks and Dread Mob allies. Allied units are denoted by an [allied] tag but are otherwise placed in the same slot as primary detachment forces.

HQ [195pts]

-Big Mek w/ KFF, BP, 'eavy armour
-[Allied] Big Mek w/ SAG

Elites [475pts]

-Lootas x10
-Lootas x10
-Junka w/ 2x Grot Bomb, 2x Skorcha
-[Allied] Junka w/ 1x Grot Bomb, 2x Skorcha
Forgeworld Unit - A cheaper, lighter, faster Battlewagon, has Front Armour 12, a deff rolla, carry capacity of 10, and can be a 'fast vehicle'
Grot Bombs - a one shot, long ranged small blast weapon with good strength and AP, can re-roll scatter dice'

Troops [565]
-2x Boyz Mob [10 Boyz and 1 Nob w/ Klaw, 'eavy, bosspole] 111

Fortifications [85pts]
-Defense Line
--'Looted' Lascannon

1648/1650 points

Current Strategy - "DAKKA DAKKA BOOM! VROOM VROOM! KRUMP EM BOYZ!"
>Dakka Dakka BOOM!: Lootas, SAG Mek and Big Guns sit back in cover and behind defense lines. Grots from the guns fire the lascannon mount at BS3 to crack any heavy armour or aircraft. Grot mob bubble wraps where necessary. Grot Bombs snipe out troublesome artillery such as Manticores or pain in the ass AP3 targets
>Vroom Vroom!: Six death rolla equipped transports trundle forwards towards the enermy, packed with boyz and meks. A forcefield and armour 12 should see at least some of them make it there intact. Enermy has to divide his fire between 'faster skorcha rollas' and 'slower transport rollas'
>Krump 'em boyz!: The boyz pile out at the right moment and get ta stompin! Two mobs of Grots claim the backfield objective and one in the middle at the end of the game.

mhm 2x15 lootas is rather heavy, i think two groups of ten would do better that way you could afford uppgrading those boy squads better multicharging with more boyz having more than one nob PK at the time means allways a nob that get's to attack

The last time I ran ten lootas, a bomb hit them, killed three, and the rest ran off the board! If I can stop that from happening I'd love to cut down on them. All I can think off is putting the Big Mek with them and using the bosspole

I was considering 60 lootas before lol. By taking Dread Mob as allies you can put a Loota Mob in the allied Heavy Support slot! But if 30 is too much, I imagine 60 is slowed levels of overkill

I'd love 60 lootas... but we are talking of a 1650 list here

60 Lootas is 900 points.

Then grab 2 KFF Big Meks and you still have a little under 600 points to spend on shoota boyz. Wouldn't be the worst list I've seen

Hmm... PK nobz for my wagon boyz seems like a good idea. As for more boyz, I'd need to put them in vehicles, so it rapidly becomes too expensive. I'd rather find some unfilled niche rather than expanding on an already rather expansive 'cavalry' wing.

But If i recall correctly you are only allowed 3 ellite slots tough :/

You can take codex: Dread Mob as allies, to get them as Heavy Support as well. So if you really wanted them, you could have four units of fifteen.

Never heard about this codex.. is it Imperial Armor?

Yep, IA-8. Tournament legal around these parts though YMMV
