Taking this list to a local tournament. People may talk about Flash Gitz not being competitive (and perhaps in some environments they are not) but where I normally play they do fine. Rolling both Warlord Traits on strategic hoping to outflank all my meganobz. Just looking for any thoughts, feedback, suggestions, etc.

As an ork player myself, i kind of like your list. I usually prefer playing Zadsnack and make a bikestar ( 2+ jink / 4++ / FNP ) but i think meganobz can do just fine if you get first turn The big deal about your list is if you cant outflank them or you go second versus taus or any shooting armies, you wont cross the middle of table :/ However, you do have quite a few boys to hold some objectives :p Let me know how you did and good luck sir !

I'll keep you posted! It's next week, so I'm finishing up some painting. I've used 3 MANZ missiles before with 3 in each trukk and they do okay, so I wanted to see how much I could wreck with the bully boyz. I would always just hide away my trucks behind as much cover as possible, or even keep them in reserve and turbo boost them up as much as I could when they came on.

Hey I recently just played in a local tournament and through together an ork list quickly (was able to go last minute). I used this list!

I personally love the bully boyz formation and had a ton of luck with it. A long with dakkajets always pulling through for me. A lot of it is personal preference but I feel this is all units that perform okay for me despite being orks

Yeah, I use my battlewagon where those dakkajets of yours probably come in. It's done so well for me in the past. Wasted fire gets thrown at it and it usually takes out whatever I'm shooting at (raider and its passengers, advancing squad of possessed marines, flock of jet bikes, bloodthirster).

Not a bad list at all, be nice to hear how you do with it.

Is the Big Mek in Mega armour? Didn't think they could take a gun along with a KFF otherwise.
Can't see him getting much use of the Gitfinda or Ammo Runts to be honest.

I often found Mogrok's Formation works well with BullyBoyz, when given the Finkin' Cap. You're guaranteed to be outflanking at least one unit.

The rule we've agreed on is that the big mek just needs to replace either the slugga or the choppa (I mean, he can have a power claw and a KFF but not a pistol and a KFF...) Also, the ammo runts and gitfinda are great! We're talking this KMB hits (and usually wounds) almost every turn. Also, runts are a great insurance policy against getting hot.

Ah well, if you've made a house rule fair enough

Gitfindas are nice, it's just the issue of having to remain stationary. Especially with guns that have short range. I've just never got much use out of them, but fair play if you have.

Got back from the tournament last night and it went pretty well. Won 2 out of 3 games. First up against a Skitari player and he put up a good fight. Had this crazy S10 AP1 blast gun that blew up my battlewagon on turn one. Lucky my boy mobs rolled some great FNP saves when they could and the few that managed to get into the fray actually did some good damage. Next opponent was Necrons and they actually weren't the worst thing in the world, although they were very annoying. Had some formation that allowed certain units to be resurrected next to the overlord after being killed, so it was just this annoying meat (metal?) grinder. Because of a bad tactical decision on my part he even managed to tarpit a unit of 30 shoota boys on a bridge with 4 tomb blades... terrible. I did get some great shots out of my battlewagon gitz and take out two death-crescents, whatever they are called. Bully boyz shined here as they just took out everything from outflanking while he kept my boyz busy with resurrecting warriors and those damn tomb blades... Finally went up against an Eldar player that ate me alive. Had some list with only wraith constructs... Again, blew up my battlewagon with a wraith knight, and even though I managed to outflank my meganobs he just d-sycthed them right inside the trukks... So disappointing defeat at the end but overall the list served me great!
