Hey all, here is a list I plan on taking to a tournament in two weeks. To be honest, I haven't played many 6th edition games, and none with flyers
involved, so this list might be a little naive a dealing with flyers? C&C welcome.

HQ
Warboss mega armour, cybork, attack squig
Big Mek KFF, cybork, grot oiler

Elites
11 Lootas

Troops
3 Meganobz (Warboss makes them troops)
----- dedicated transport is a Battlewagon deff rolla, red paint job, grot riggers, 2 big shootas
30 Shoota Boyz
30 Shoota Boyz
20 Shoota Boyz
19 Shoota Boyz
19 Grots, 1 Runtherd

Fast Attack
Dakkajet extra supa shoota, fighta ace
Warbuggy TL rokkits

Heavy Support
Battlewagon deff rolla, red paint job, grot riggers, 2 big shootas

* Warboss and meganobz go in one Battlewagon, KFF Mek and 19 Boyz go in the other.
* Battlewagons deploy in front, in KFF bubble, rush enemy lines.
* 80 Boyz deploy behind Battlewagons and footslog (might keep the 20-strong unit in reserve)
* Grots in reserve, go to ground on objectives in last half of game
* Warbuggy acts as suicide/disruptor/movement blocker

PS As far as I know, mega armour includes a power klaw, so a Warboss with mega armour does not need to purchase a power klaw separately (see Codex Orks, page 39).

ATTACHED UPDATED LIST:

OK here's an updated list:

Warboss with mega armour, cybork, kombiskorcha
Big Mek with KFF

5 Lootas
5 Lootas

3 Meganobz with kombiskorchas
------- in a Battlewagon with deff rolla, grot oilers, 1 big shoota
20 Shoota Boyz
20 Shoota Boyz
20 Shoota Boyz
19 Grots, 1 Runtherd

Dakkajet with extra supa shoota, fighta ace

Battlewagon with deff rolla, grot oilers, 1 big shoota


Comes in at 1285 so far. What do I spend the remaining 215 points on? I have lots more Boyz, a Warbuggy, some Killa Kans and about 20 Nobz with all kinds of loadouts.

I assume you take bigshootas on everything. That's the way to go. They're worth a few spent points. U can save points on deffrollas, rpj and probably grot riggers. Also, 2 bigshootas are not necessary for wagons since u're most likely goint to flat out or at least move 12 even after disembarking to protect the boyz with it's hull and toreform enemy formations. Cybork and grot oiler is not necessary for KFF mek. U're most likely leaving the vehicle as soon as u're close enough or immobilized cause you need an advance. So such things are only used lategame and in some rarely met situations. Attack squig is not mandatory also. Cause generally, your megaboss is either an overkill or dead before striking.

I'd also exchange a buggy for a kopta. U'll need something to eat overwatch.

If possibly, i'd take more wagonz. Wagonspam really works. The best i can think of is 2*19+Nob, 18+Nob+KFF in 3 wagonz, Mnobz+Mboss. And footslogas of 20 shootaboyz without nobz are a nice cheap working horse That advance behind wagonz and provide firesupport from turn 2-3.
Though, if no more wagonz are avaliable, 25+ nob are not bad also. Though, don't expect them to get in mellee on your terms. It's edition dakka.

Put the Warbuggy and the two 30 man boyz units on the shelf.

Take the deff rollas, red, and one BS off the wagonz. Put on a Ram and a Boarding plank.

Buy two more battlewagonz and fit them the same.

Put two PK nobz in the two groups of shootas, then take 19 of the boyz off the shelf and set them next to the grey Battlewagonz. Add a Nob with PK.

Split the lootas into two groups of five, put the spare loota in the back of the warbuggy on the shelf.

Have the grots wash the Dakkajet before you leave to goto the Tournament.

EDIT; You might be able to afford some more lootas, if you can get 8 then make that those two groups of 9

Agreed, split the Lootas so they can GTG if needed. If you have more Lootas, take them. The Deffkopta makes more sense than the buggy.

11 lootas is good fun but I've always liked bringing lootas in small squads. Buy them and aegis defence line. You want to bring them in squads of <10 so they are not fearless and have the ability to go to ground behind the aegisa. This makes them more survivable and barely affects their bs2 shooting. Just hope to roll hot on their d3shots! Hope this helps.

RPJ is worthless. Add a BS or or combi Flamer. In fact. 4 combis. 3 MANz and da boss.

OK here's an updated list:

Warboss with mega armour, cybork, kombiskorcha
Big Mek with KFF

5 Lootas

Don't forget bosspoles and bigshootas

You can dump some more points into another nob squad, make one a painboy even or for more fun attach a wierdboy!? I still suggest an aegis line for the lootas. Tried the classic burnas in a battlewagon yet?

This is a personal favorite of mine when playing Orks at this point cost. Its a more of a shooting list, and has worked very well for me against most armies.
