Im having the grots to hold a home base objective and im thinking of using one of the deff dreads as HS because of big guns

Im thinking of either putting the SAG on his own or carefully place the lootas, as I don't wanna roll and ruin all my guns

I've found my open topped ork vehicles to be nothing but rolling bombs... that is if they get the chance to roll at all. There's just so much AP 1 & 2 out there that I haven't had one (including battle wagons) survive beyond turn 1 in a very long time. As a result, I'm either putting meganobs or aard boyz in them (as they can survive the explosion & have some staying power to move across the field once their ride has been popped). I have, in truth.. been failing my cover saves... but the results on the damage chart with the +1's and +2's are so easily catostrophic that I've had to adopt alternate strategies.

There seems to be no way for Orks to function well in the current atmosphere. Please bring us a new codex before June! And please let it include un-negatable cover saves (that work because the Orks believe they will).

I completely agree man! Im just trying to make a list that will do OK against all the updated lists.
