Meks go with the Boyz to eat challenges. 20 ork mobz go in battle wagons. All ICs go with Meganobz. Roll on strategic to try for master of ambush, outflank deffkoptas.

Any Thoughts?

I love any ork list with a weirdboy. I am planning a feral list lead by a pair of weirdboys soon.

I like the list although my preference would be to give all the meganobs combi-scorchas, just for all the fun that would be.

The warboss: goes with the MANZ? If so, consider trading him to a boys squad. He can tank all the lower STR weapons, and AP2 he can LOS into a 6point boy, rather than a 40 point MANZ. Plus, that way you diversify your threats.

Note: DLS is a relic, and as such you can only field one in your army, irregardless of detachements. Just like you couldnt take two Ghazs

Otherwise, looks like a solid start!

Warboss doesn't have the Stikk, he's got the Kap. Big Mek has the Stikk

But I agree with spreading the characters about. 4 HQ's in one tiny unit (AKA: The Fire Magnet) is going to draw a lot of shooting. The Stikk doesn't help with AP2 weapons, and the squad is too small to soak them.

Ok, removing Finkin kap, giving war boss lucky stikk, moving him to a BW boyz squad.

Move pain boy to same boyz squad?
