Hi fellow orks general !
First off, English is not my mother tongue so I hope you'll understand what I say.

I'll going to introduce a fun (but competitive) league in 750pts (unbound army is forbidden).
The goal here for me is to make a cool snakebites army with some of the models I own :
20 savages orks, 20 boar riders (warbikers), 1 carnosaur (count as battlewagon), one shaman,
20 grots, 10 sguigs (tankbusta), 3 chief orks boar riders (nobz bikers)

So here is my list :
Warboss-'eavy armor, da lucky stikk, power klaw, slugga, warbike, warlord

18 boyz + nob-bosspole
Battlewagon-big shoota, boarding plank, deff rolla, grot riggers, red paint job, rokkit launcha)

10 gretchin+runtherd

5xwarbikers + nob-power klaw
5xwarbikers + nob-power klaw

Better ideas ? Advices ? Tips ?
I take everything !
Thx.

I play Orks and I run a list of primarily walkers like Killa Kans. It appears that all units except the Runtherd and his Gretchin are the only untit that isn't mechanized... May I ask what purpose they will serve in your army? (How do you plan to use them?

First it's because, the Gretchin fit very well in a snakebites theme army.
Second, they have a tactical reason to be on the field. They will be hidden during most part of the Battle.
They will only serve to take objective at the end of the game.
Generally no ones care about them.

I love the idea of playing with what you have, and I think you can make it work.

Thoughts- do you have a model who could be a mega armored warboss? You could take him on the carnowagon with the shoota boyz, with the lukky stikk he will do a great job protecting them and make that unit VERY threatening. Warbikers will still be scary and mobile.

I'd also lose the deffrolla, red paint job, and boarding blank from the carnowagon, maybe squeeze another few points out, then see if you can put in your Shaman. Either make him a weirdboy, or a counts-as Big Mek with shokk attak gun? if he's a mek, sit him with the grots on the back line and zap people. If he's a weirdboy, run him in the wagon.
