So I have been thinking of expanding my Ork Tribe into various clans, therefore wanting to build a small force of each of them as a core, say a battalion of boyz each, then add special gubbinz on relevant to each clan. At the moment my Orks are all Evil Sunz, so in what order should I do the clans in, and what gubbinz do people expect to see with each clan?

Freebootaz: Badrukk and lots of Flash Gitz
Goffs: Nobz and Dreads
Bad Moons: Big Mek Gunz, expensive stuff
Deathskulls: Lootas, Mek Gunz, anything else from other clans with badly smeared blue on it.
Snakebites: Grots and runt herds
Blood Axes: Kommandos

Bad Moonz Tankbustas or Lootas.

Deathskulls first i think...

Like what is fluffy or what is good?

Right now you want your Lootas to be Bad Moonz, your Deff Dreadz to be Evil Sunz, and your Kustom Mega anyfing wif a D6 Damage die should be Deffskullz.

For Goffs I would do just plain boyz or make some Skarboyz.

Goffs and evil sunz actually love the exact same units, they both want to be in melee. Goffs get extra punch, evil sunz are easier to get into combat.

Lootas are not great for deathskulls since they only get one re-roll in a pool of tons of dice. They're better with freebooterz and lootas. Deathskulls are more about MSU: 2x5 tankbustas with bomb squigs are ok with their trait other than solo units.

Mek gunz are better with freebooterz since they could trigger their trait. But they're equally good in any kultur, actually they're the basically mandatory if you play a melee oriented army like goffs or evil sunz since shooty units don't get significant benefits with their traits. Of course they're not worse if bad moons or deathskulls but those clans have other competitive shooty options while goffs or evil sunz basically have only tankbustas that can do very well without the trait bonus, other than mek gunz.
