It depends how your running Escalation in your area. If D is allowed, the stompa is a waste of points - expect to see your whole army die to Eldar Rev titans first time every time.

Without the D, I'm not sure that the Stompa really fits with a trukk rush. I took a look at some Stompa goodness myself, and I reckon you should consider;

~KFF Mek in the Stompa to give it cover, and project a MASSIVE forcefield bubble
~Gretchin to bubble wrap it. KFF + Fearless is great for grots, and Grots help deal with drop-pod melta
~Battlewagons. Run right in front of the stompa, giving them 5+ cover. They in turn give the stompa 4+. The same weapons are needed to kill both Stompas and Battlewagons, so whatever they don't fire at will likely reach the enemy lines intact
~Deffkoptas. They love the fearless from the Stompa, however their effectiveness is dependent on if they give 4+ to the stompa behind it.
~Multiple units of Lootas or Burna Boyz inside. Give them Mekboyz, and suddenly you can get 10x repair rolls on the Stompa each turn. Thats some durable stuff.

The Nob bikers should work well with it though. They love fearless, and the stompa can help to give them mobile LoS blocking

The cc weapons of a Stompa are D weapons.

Same with the Khornedozer. If D is banned, the only logical conclusion would be to modify those weapons somehow. A comp system that said "Stompa is out, but Revenant w/ Sonics is in" would be the stupidest thing I've seen *since* D weapons
