500p Ork list.
Despite paying all my start CP i choose to take an Outrider Detachment for this Combat Patrol list. The reason for this is that I believe it outweigh the penalty to take 1/5 of the list as low a preforming tax unit as I believe boyz are. Also there is no any great Ork stratagems that I miss out on by doing this (I only have one HQ and no large unit there a buff strat will make a huge difference). Major flaw with this list that I can see, is that it misses out on objective secure units.

The list is as follows:
Warboss on Bike
3 War Bikes, Claw on Nob
3 War Bikes, Claw on Nob
3 War Bikes, Claw on Nob
1 Mek Gun, KMK
1 Shokkjump Dragsta

I plan to run this list as Bad Moons

Any comments are appreciated!

500pt armies are always starved for something, so I think not having obsec isn't that uncommon here.

I think that as a small-flavor-force (new band name?) it works quite well. It seems decently killy and should be able to be reasonably competitive from what I've seen of the new dex.

I'd worry that if anyone brought any real armor you would find yourself in a difficult situation... but at 500pt games there isn't likely going to be a whole horde of tanks/dreads to deal with, so I say run it and see what happens!

@leerm02 thanks for comments.
I lpayed with this list against the new Gray Knight codex. the opponents list were as follows:
Grand Master Nemesis Dreadknight, 6 man strong Strike Squad and 3 man strong Paladins.
We both set up more or less out side line of sight of each other. He won the roll-off and teleported the Dreadnight close to the center, there he used some 2D3 smite power and shoot down five bikes with some splashed mortal wounds on the other units on top. after that he did not have anything in reach to charge.
In my turn I moved forward with what I had left, then shoot at his terminators that had enhanced save from both psychic power and some other fraction ability that gives cover if beyond 12'' to a 2+ with a +2 on the roll. I still manage to take down two terminators, with a lucky KMK shoot. Reason that I did not aim at Dreadnight was that if I would, it would teleport once again and deny me my charge.
After this I charged with my Warboss and three PK biker Nobs. He then activated a 3++ and I managed to get one hit throw (he used a normal RR on one of the wounds) making a total of 3 damage. He hit back, failing quite a few, but still removed another two bikes.
His next turn he used his super smite, got a bit lucky with the wound roll and removed the Warboss, then shoot away the rest of my list except the Grot Cannon.
I must say, it felt like we were playing in two different leagues. The Dreadknight felt superior at everything and despite that the Strike Squad got the chance to show what they were capable of thy also feel solid with their stormbolter and 3 attack power weapons...
