So basically I have most of these already, but trying to find the encouragement to pull the trigger on Mek Gunz, Zhadsnark, and the Big Trakk. I know the "meta" would be to bring 180+ Boyz but I think the limit of my sanity is around the 120 mark. Do you think this list could work in a friendly yet occasionally hard meta?

Seems decent to me. Plenty of boys, KFF support, and the best shooty units we got (bustas and mek guns).

Deff Dreads aren't the best in the world, but they are fun to run and you have the KFF support for them. Hopefully opponent will be targeting Big Trakk instead.

I have no comment on the Big Trakk as I have never used one. But it seems like it would be a solid shooting platform/transport.

With only 1 Warboss you may eventually run into morale issues as your bigger units of boys are widdled down, and I assume they will be all over the board as you Jump them with the weirdboy, so keeping Zhadsnark in range of more than 1 unit could be tricky.

Thanks for your input, appreciated. Since Orks don't have their own stratagems yet I can easily reserve 2-4 cp to pass crucial morale checks, so I don't think the single warboss is a liability.

It's nice, I'd only cut all the boyz' upgrades (big shootas, big choppas, pk) in order to bring 2 more bustas and a painboy.
