this was something i had put together. unfortunately I rarely get to play the game and was looking for a little feedback. i wasn't trying to make them op just playable
thanks

Can you type it up? It's hard to read.

It's very fragmental for now, but the idea of adding eavy armor to more ork models, especially Stromboyz, Flash Gitz, Warboss and Big Meks. I wouldn't have made it such a sweeping upgrade, but still, it's not a bad idea. Nobz, of course, needed a price decrease, but their base kit is still good, they don't need to come stoc with eavy armor. The Rendig on the Burna is a bit much in my opinion, but the +2 strength is welcome. The addition of the Gold Toof Chains and the Kustom Shoota is pretty good, but the Kustom Shoot should be around S 5, since 6 is abit much. The Big Choppa with AP: 3 is interesting. An option for rending instead of AP 3 could also have been studied. In both cases, it would make it an option instead of the power klaw which is pretty much favored all the time. I see several good ideas in there.

Thanks for input, and I will try to type it this afternoon

deathskull loota force organization
compulsory optional
1 big mek 0-3 hq
3 troop 0-6 troop
1 heavy support 0-3 elite
0-4 fast attack
0-4 heavy support

special rules:
0-2 mek side kicks for compulsory big mek choice they form a unit with the big mek and cannot be split up
excellent mekanics : any mek may attempt to repair any vehicle that has been reduced to 0 hull points and has become a wreck as if they we making a normal repair with the exception of the d6 roll of 1-2 restores that number of hull points, 3-5 it remains a wreck, and on a 6 it explodes resolve as per normal vehicle explosion.
-in all other repair situations they repair on a 4+

I think if your boyz squad is 20+ in size you should be able to swap the nob for a pain boy, and if 30 you should be able to take a mek.

Encourages bigger squads and solves some of the problems with the congested HQ slot.

I feel that the pain boy would be a bit much, but I do like the idea of a mek at 30.
