Toying with the idea of kitted out shooty orks. Give me your gawks/opinions please. Suggestions and ideas welcome.

HQ: warboss, mega armor kombi rocket pole cybork warlord

Painboy attack squig and the grot

Elites:

10 tank bustas naked

7 nobz armour half skorchas half rockets poles 1 banner all get power klaws (I already hear the gawks)

Troops:
18 shoota boyz, armoured, nob with twin linked and big choppa and pole, 2 big shootas

14 gretchin and the ork with the squig and stick

Fast:
14 stormboyz nob with klaw and pole

7 biker's with a nob, nob gets a klaw

Heavy:

Big squiggoth with a lobba (hearing those gawks again)

Wagon ram kannon 4 rockets hard top armour grabber wrecking ball kill kannon red paint

Wagon kannon 4 big shootas armour red paint ram

OK so the idea is 1 wagon packed with rockets firing 14 s8 the other packed with shootas I don't even know how many shots that is but it's a lot (flyers!). Nobs ride in the squiggoth with the boss and the painboy with the wagons on both sides and the biker's in front everyone screening the stormboyz who jump over them all to get in cc. Grots grab objectives and hopefully that squiggoth gets to the enemy lines and unleashes the wrath of 16 WS5 s8 2 wound nobs on the charge with fnp.

Suggestions and ideas welcome, what's the biggest threat, I know the squiggoth is silly but I doubt it will get killed before delivery of it's payload. Melta spam armies are an issue cough cough tau* but if I'm lucky the stormboyz can beat thier fish faces in.

The stormboyz will die like flies, go multiple units with a PK in each or not at all. A unit of 30 is risky but better than 15.
You deffo want bombsquigs on the tankbustas.
Drop the nobz and take mega nobz.
Your shooty orks aren't very shooty, i t may should like your putting out a lot of shots but you'll onlybhit with a third of them remember. Lootas and bs3 bug guns are your friend.
Drop all the stuff off the battlewagon's except ram and 1 rokkit.unless you plan to park them all game they won't be firing all that anyway. I have nothing to say about the squighoth coz I haven't seen the rules for it.

I'd be concerned for the meltas and poison weapons for that squiggoth of your's. I will proceed to gawk at the quantity of power klaws you give your nob squad, I'd tone that down a little!

The list looks like a less competitive one, but one hell of a fun one to play. Hope you enjoy games you play with it.
