Hey guys,

I was a big fan of the kanz'wall in previous versions of w40k, I would like to give it a try at low points.

1 Big Mek KFF + 19 Shootas
1 Nob PK + 19 Shootas
2x 3 Kanz with big shootas
2x 5 Lootas

What do you think? Can it make it vs shooty fella?

i could see this working. but it dose depend alot on your opponent. vs fun lists it can win but vs competitive kans just don't cut it nowadays.

Depends on the terrain..Ork Walkers come into their own in heavy terrain environment ..ie a true city battle with lots of buildings and fighting building to building a Kan Wall is king ..if the terrain is simply a few small rolling hills that do not break line of sight up then not likely to win

Oh and the Grotzooka is prolly one of the best weapons a kan can have

I have the FW Realm of Battle cityscape terrain. So we do have buildings

I know but I had to give them big shootas for points purpose...

Lol ran a vey similar list less kans with grotzookas and i think i took warboss instead but this works really well, I won 3 of my games and tied grey knights in 5th edition.

I think it'll work quite well. You have anti-flier and at 750 pts I think most lists won't be able to deal with 12 av11 hull points. I would consider dropping an odd boy here and there to get grotzookas tho...

Swap the Pk on the Nob to a Big choppa and boss pole and you have the points for 3 kans to have grotzookas (remember each kan has a DCCW)

I am just hesitating if 2x3 or 3x2 Kanz :p

3 x 2 gives more flexability ..

If your playing tau your screwed...

You could tone down the 19 orks with the Mek, to 10, and then use the points on something like this:

3 kans
2x2 Kans

So you have 7, as opposed to 6, and you can grab a grotzooka or two along the way.

personally, I would be a bit afraid of this list with my BA. your boyz alone outnumber me 2-1 :/ not to mention I would have little to actually hurt the kanz. lets see... 2 PFs and a melta on tycho... thats it O.o... this is assuming that Kanz also use front armor during CC.
