What do SW (or SM in general) have to stop overwatch? So far I found these:
Assault Launchers (1 CP): ASSAULT LAUNCHERS
Shock and Awe (1 CP) LAND SPEEDER STORM or ADEPTUS ASTARTES SHOCK GRENADES
Suppression Fire (1 CP) Whirldwind
But who do have assault alunchers and or shock grenades? I have no idea! Is there a list?
And murderus Hurricane SW psykick power.

Land Raiders have assault launchers.
Reivers and the Reiver LT have shock grenades.

The Land Raider doesn't have to charge to use the Assault Launchers stratagem. You are just using the stratagem in the Charge phase.

"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"
"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"
"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"
"...which leads you straight into my trap, Kaiba, you see I now declare the stratagem Implacable Automata, reducing all damage from your attacks by 1 and triggering my All is Dust special rule!" |

So, my question would be what are you charging that you are worried about overwatch from? Your opponent can only use it once per turn unless Tau (?) and you can trick them to waste it on a chaff unit, if they don't they are tied up and can't overwatch anyway.

My opponent is an ork.
Last time he got 8 out of 9 of his kustom mega zappa. He hit with 4 of them and away my smashcaptain went. Unlikely, but it happened. Never mind the rest of the guns.
Boys shoot a lot. Also flashgits shoots very well...
They compensate for bad BS5+ by having a lot of shots. BS6+ overwatch is surprisingly dangerous with orks.

Or the old school way. Charge something with a unit that’s tough like a rhino/impulsor or chaff , like a cyber wolf, and then charge your nasty unit into them. They either wont waste the overwatch or it won’t matter.

There's also Primaris Suppressors. They don't even need a stratagem to do it, it's one of their abilities.
