any suggestions/additions if the points limit was taken up to 2000 or more?

Your HQs are fine for what they do so nothing to change there:

Your lootas dont need the three meks, just a normal squad of lootas will do as the pure fire power of the dakkagun outweighs the big shoota.

The troops seem fine but that shoota boy mob is gonna take a while to get to the fight. Keep them as they are if you want objective holders but I might suggest you drop them for another stormboyz unit or maybe even kommandos if you want to get to the fight quicker.

Stormboyz are nice, but bare in mind they aren't going to be around after they kill off that one unit they charge into.

Nice little heavy supports, nothing really to change there.

if you want to go up to 2000pts I sugest keeping the HQ and troops and make it double force org. That way you can have another battlewagon and don't have to drop the lobbaz. Also get more lootas, they are by far the best choice in the ork army for long range shooting. Finally consider getting a big mek with kustom force field, it will keep the battlewagons alive longer from surprise drop pods or the odd infiltrator unit. Hope that helps mate

okay, I had a feeling I didn't have enough storm boyz to stand the rest of the game but I was hoping just to swoop in with them and kill the opponents HQ or something they need alive or just use them as objective holders. outside of that I was also told just to use the extra 500 on dakka jets

Dakka jets are nice, what with them flying around gunning down the foe. if you want to spend all the points on them then double force org the army, letting you keep the stormboyz, and get 3 dakka jets to max out on flying power. however I still stick to you at least getting a battlewagon for the shoota boyz. it is possible to get 3 dakkajest and 3 battlewagons if you drop the lobbas and keep everything else for your 2000pts.

Honestly, for the Warboss, I'd drop the 'Eavy Armour and PK and take Mega Armour. It costs you 10pts more to set him up that way and then he has a 2+ instead of a 4+, a PK and a twin linked shoota. Maybe give him an attack squig. and move/drop a boy from the squad that he is going to lead. (mega armour is bulky)

As for going for 2K; More boys? You don't have enough 30 boy shoota squads.


Also, squad two needs to drop a boy or the nob because 21 models cannot fit into a battle wagon.

Edit: Take the Big Shootas on the nobs. 2w big shootas are nice.

What are you looking for in this list?

If you want tournament Orks your sorta on track but theres a lot of gak to cut.

If you want casual Orks, even then you'd benefit by simply speeding up the slow elements, or slowing down the fast ones. Make everything hit at the same time - so for instance, don't pay for transports for your boyz, use those points for more boyz instead. Or cut the deff dread, and buy more fast assets
