Hey guys.

I am playing in a fun 1250 point friendly tourney in mid Jan and haven't played 40K in aaaages...

1x TLS and bosspole
1x TLS

1x Rokkit

27x Slugga Boyz
1x Nob w/ BP, PK, TLS
2x Rokkit

14x Gretchin
Runthera w/ Grabba Stik

HEAVY SUPPORT
Morkanaut w/ KFF


Comes in right on 1250.

I know that the Morkanaut is that competitive, but I have just finished painting it and really want to get it on the table.

General idea is to point the MANZ missile with Pain Boy at something and let loose. Also to have the grots screen the Boyz until in charge range and the Morkanaut is there because it looks cool!

Would appreciate all feedback!

What kind of missions do you expect to play? This list might have serious problems in maelstrom, too many objectives, too huge units. It's a better killpoints list tho so if that's what you're going for. Also your battle plan hinges around a single av10 open topped trukk carrying around ~25% of your 1250 points into battle and drawing fire from your boyz. You need to upgrade it to a battle wagon or looted wagon. Or hell, maybe even just stick them inside the naught. That trukk tho is like a giant "feth me" light, to use a video game term and its gonna get lit up every time because it's the only thing stopping your opponent from blasting you to pieces while your slog, kff or not.

I do like the list though. Footsloggers and naughts are lots of fun to play. Lucky stikk, mega armour, and FNP is just good wholesome fun for the whole family.

Thanks for the reply.

We will be playing a few games and the missions will be random Eternal War missions and I didn't think about using the 'Naut as a transport...

It's tough to find the extra 40 points for the Wagon with the Morkanaut though so this it what I've come up with.

Dropped the 'Naut and now have Wagons for all! Also added in a few Lobbas for some templates and a few Kopta's with the spare 60 points..

I think that's a very tight list. Now I'm in a spot lol. I didn't mean to talk you out of the morkanaut. It's got great armour and enough HP to absorb a lot of firepower regardless of target saturation. This list is gonna be much more competitive but if you want the naut, just play it man. (Or woman) fun is the real goal, winning is just a means to that end.

The lobbas are a fantastic choice here. Use it to pin enemy heavy weapon squads. 3 AV14 vehicles are going to be a nightmare to deal with, tau players are gonna gak their pants over it. you've doubled the amount of scoring units in your list so that's gonna help mightily capturing objectives. Be sure to take your koptas in 2 units of one for maximum annoyance.

If you'd think it'd be more fun to do a footslogger list, go with the naut. Hell maybe even two. You have to commit whole heartily to slogging, no half measures like having one trukk. Go all foot, but give them lots of fire support. Tankbustas, lootas, mek gunz. Something to trade shots with them. Go double CAD, take 3 pain boys, that kind of thing. I'm on a lame iPad but I'll find the vid where SS82 revamps his ork list after going on a rough losing streak, he goes mechanized ultimately, but keeps his morkanaut. That new list is actually on something of a win streak.
