Good day,

I have an upcoming event where we are going to play killteams.
The enemies I'll be facing are most likely tau, necron and space marines
So i have been thinking about various options to set up my team for orks within the 200pt limit.
I have read other topics about this aswell and that's where i got the battlewagon idea from.

My first idea would be:

1x Battlewagon + RPJ (95) (dedicated transport)
5 Nobz (100)

But i'm not sure if this would provide enough firepower to defeat my enemies. But i would basically roll into the enemy and start firing with the nobz.

So i've wrote a couple more just in case:

19 shoota boyz + 1 big shoota (125)
5 Lootas (75)

Basically my thought with this one would be to move up with the boyz while the lootas provide cover fire with their deff' guns

Or

20 shoota boyz (120)
13 Slugga boyz (78)

Kind of the same thing, shootas in the front to absorb some bullets with the sluggas right behind to eventually get into close combat


This would be my first killteam game so i'm not sure if these unit formations are allowed, so please correct me if i'm wrong.
And again, thank you for your help!

Have a nice day

The killteam rules have been updated, and AV 14 isn't permitted.

Since you don't know that, I imagine you don't know any of the other changes so I suggest you go dig up the recent pdf and base your army on that.

Hi there, guys, GW's taken down the Kill Team rules, as they're about to release a new version for 2014.

In the meantime, in the spirit of being helpful, I just uploaded the latest version on some personal storage space for you:

Hopefully, that works for you. Please take a look and check with your organisers if this Sept 2013 version is what they're using.

Your Boyz + Lootas list looks particularly good.
