Just wondering what other wargamers thought of this army list. i used it in a agme against necrons and won the game 6-0 after he called a "tactical retreat"

If it works, it works! I'm interested in your warboss- did the mega armor effect your mobility much? I'm always scared of having to footslog my armored boss across the field in low point games.

You got your sluggas and shootas mixed around there. Put 10 slugga boyz in each trukk and your mob of 20 should be shootas

Gotta love shokk attack guns

No it didn't really, though the truck he was in got destroyed by the necron walker (which i can't remember the name of) in close combat. This meant the warboss could then assault it next turn. The warboss then didn't have much of a use as the next turn his pretorian squad was destroyed and so was one squad of warriors and the next squad were down to two men and on the other side of the battlefield. So really the warboss made it's points back but didn't do anything more, but this wasn't down to mobility, this was simply just because I defeated my enemy so quickly. The mega-armour doesn't really affect his mobility much as I try to keep him in the truck until he got to his target, this means he doesn't usually run and the only disadvantage is that he can't sweeping advance or consolidate.

I disagree, as i like to keep the shoota boys in the trucks and just drive around until they get destroyed, at which point I then assault. Though this tactic sounds bad in theory, i find that in practice it works extremely well.
