The list I have created is one that I have the models for and I just want some opinions on what to grab next. I am not too competitive, but I would like to get a solid list built yet still be crazy like orks are.

HQ:
139 pts : Warboss: 'Eavy Armor, PK, Slugga, Boss pole, Da Lucky Stikk, Attack Squig, Cybork Body
70 pts : Weirdboy: Psyker lvl 2

Troops
147 pts: 11 slugga boyz, boss nob with PK and slugga and bosspole in trukk with Ram and Rokkit
147 pts: 10 shoota boyz, 1 big shoota, boss nob with kombi skorcha and bosspole in trukk with Ram and Rokkit
220 pts: 17 'Eavy Armored slugga boyz, boss nob with pk and boss pole and slugga in eavy armor. These are going in the battlewagon with weirdboy and warboss

Heavy:
160 pts: Battlewagon, grot riggers, boarding planks, Ram, 4x rokkits
117 pts: Mek Gunz
1x Bubblechukka, 2 extra gretchin, ammo runt
1x Kustom Mega-Kannon, 2 extra gretchin, ammo runt
1x Smasha Gun, 2 extra gretchin, ammo runt


Should I split the mek gunz?

Thanks for the help

Anyone have any thoughts?

Don't know a huge amount about Orks but when people vs me with them they normally have a weirdboy or Warboss on a bike near the trukks with a custom force field giving them a 4+ invun which is very effective, especially as many weapons can easily punch through their armour. Hope this helps

Couple thoughts:

Tankbustas are awesome - throw 5 in a trukk, each of them has a meltabomb-like weapon in close combat - these guys can bring down anything

MANZ missiles are a thing - 3 meganobz with killsaws in a trukk, point it towards a target and bring it down

Deffkoptas are great - get the plastic ones off ebay, they can get objectives quickly or eat overwatch for other units

Building a looted wagon is super fun, here is the datasheet:

You can build one out of anything (lots of conversion opportunities)

Warbikers are considered one of the best units in the game, especially with a warboss on a bike

Might as well split the mek guns. Make them all kustom megakannons as well

I will second splitting the mek guns. Use whichever ones you want, but it's a good idea to split them up so they can target different targets depending on whichever ones you use. Bubblechuckas tend to be pretty unreliable, but are still fun, and after all, you didn't start playing orks for reliable and uniform technology now, did you?

I think the list looks pretty awesome, I definitely love the addition of a weirdboy!

Dont need cybork body on warboss (points wasted) if anything put painboy into the army and cut back a few little things.
Also Cut the attack squig your already re-rolling with the lukky stik and you cant re-roll a dice twice.

Consider making the battlewagon squad shootas instead of the trukk squad. The weight of fire is nice and even if
you decide you need to run instead of shoot in the shooting phase for distance they still have 3 attacks each charging.
They are really there to let your warboss do work before he dies.

Go all mega kannon for sure, or if you play in a flyer heavy meta the trakktor kannons rock.
