As List name suggests; using both the Vanguard detachment(1 CP) and Outrider Detachments(1 CP) for total of 2CP
Reasons for using these two together is so that I can get multiple HQs, no troops catergory(instead bikers and Meganobz) and still obtaining 2 Command Points. ( alternatively could take Battalion but would need Zhadsnark providing he still allows bikers to be troops, for 3 CP)

Outrider Detachment
HQ
Warboss, Bike, PK 111pts

Elites
Painboy, Bike, PK 115pts

Fast Attack
Warbikers x 5 + Nob, PK 187pts
Warbikers x 5 + Nob, Big Choppa 171pts
Warbikers x 5 + Nob, Big Choppa 171pts

Vanguard Detachment
HQ
Big Mek, Bike, KFF 101pts

Elites
Meganobz, Kustom shoota, PK x 4 + 1 Pair of Killsaws 279pts
Meganobz, Kustom shoota, PK x 4 + 1 Pair of Killsaws 279pts
Meganobz, Kustom shoota, PK x 4 + 1 Pair of Killsaws 279pts

Dedicated Transports
Trukk, Rokkit Launcha, Wrecking Ball 91pts
Trukk, Rokkit Launcha, Wrecking Ball 91pts
Trukk, Rokkit Launcha, Wrecking Ball 91pts

Total: 1966pts

Warboss, Painboy join the squad of warbikers with the PK Nob, other 2 biker squads are by themselves
Big mek on bike with KFF provides 5++ for the 3 trukks carrying the Meganobz
Trukks move forward protecting the bikers.
Everything is fast/mobile can get into combat quickly where it should prevail..
Or alternatively i could fit everything under the 1 5++ bubble.

Comments? Im aware its a little low on bodies and obviously no boyz!

I would be very worried of going second and having the trukks popped leaving the MANz stranded.

The split in vehicle and non targets gives them options for split firing different weapons optimally against you.

Also objectives are held by most models near them which could be tricky if they whittle you down and for the relic only your MANz could pick it up.

I like it! I think I'd cut the painboy and the pk that belongs to the warbikers' nob (give him a big choppa like the other biker nobz) and the wrecking balls in order to add 6 other bikers.

Hmm maybe if i can spare 30pts i will add in a squad of 10 gretchin to hold objectives or pick up relics.

But..but painboy 6+ can stack with Big Mek kff 5+ ! and I made an awesome painboy on bike conversion.

I have not modelled the wrecking balls on my trukks was considering it, but the actually plastic chain is so flimsy a breathe of wind and it would snap off.

I do like the idea of more bikers though..anything to avoid buying mass Boyz lol

I'm not sold on Pk shoota manz. If you have the newer models with pushfit weapons I'd switch them all to dual killsaw manz.

For 9 pts more (63 vs 54 per manz) you get an additional atk and all your atks at -4 ap. To free up points I'd drop the rokkits on trunks to big shootas as the 5+ to hit rokkit isn't that great for a unit you are likely going to charge with. If you drop all 3 rokkits and add 6 killsaws you end up with 2002 pt list. It would be best if you could also place a waagh banner nob in one of the trukks since it will make all your manz in range but on a 3+ and make them Considerable better but that requires you to drop some bikers.

I also recommend the killsaws but they are quite expensive and I think 1 pair per unit is a good compromise. In a list like this one you need to save points because you don't have many bodies on the table and even a few more wounds can be handy.

The biker painboy has good synergy with this list, where almost everything is multiwounds and fast/embarked. I'd go with more bodies but the dok it's not a bad choice. Just give him a killsaw, it's only 3 points more expensive than a p.klaw, you can just drop a single wrecking ball to save the points.

A nob with waaagh banner would be great with that many meganobz but he costs 79 points and it's not easy to spare them.
