Would use the Greentide Formation from the Waaagh Ghazghull book (all boy units below plus Warboss & Painboy would make one giant unit. Also Warboss would be able to call a Waaagh every turn after the first).

The idea would be to run the 115 model unit up the board, cover objectives, and get into fights with anything you find.

The entire unit would be WS5, Fearless, FNP, and there would be 10 hidden Nobz with PK, grotsniks PK, plus a Warboss with PK.

The Dakkajets would have a 2 bonus shots per turn (8 shots each) for the entire game.



Warboss: Da Lucky Stikk; Power Klaw 110
Mad Doc Grotsnik 160

15 Boyz: Nob (Power Klaw) 125
10 Boyz: Nob (Power Klaw) 95

Correct me if I am wrong but a single unit can only cover one objective at a time correct? If this is correct than this massive unit can only capture one objective regardless of whether you are within 1 or 6.

Im guessing your list is unbound as otherwise there would be no way to have dakkajets.

I can't find anything in rulebook that says a unit can only control 1 objective.

In fact under objective secured, which you don't have but regardless, it lists "objectives controlled by a unit with this.."

so units can control more than 1 objective.

the only suggestion I can make is swap 3 of the dakka jets for blitz bommers, they will still get waaagh plane but the boms will let you take out enemy artillery and give you more bodies to cross the field.

You are correct in that one objective per unit. I am guessing the only way this list works is if you manage to table your opponent as I think it will not get to many objective points.

It looks pretty scary on paper, but I wonder at how effective this will be in practice. A single giant unit is going to take some finesse to move around the table effectively, and it could be tough to bring the full weight of the unit's attacks to bear in combat - one or two decently tough close combat units might be able to tarpit the giant mob for several turns. I really couldn't say for certain, though, cause I've never seen it done before!

The jets will help immensely as will the fleet move from Waaagh! every turn.
