Ok, pure fun and thinking of dropping a load of my bonus for this.

Not balanced in the slightest and cannot deal with flyers hey ho.

This is what happens when 4 Meks put their heads together to have a fight.

2 Meks join each Mega Nob unit, and because of slow and purposeful they can move and still fire the shock attack guns.

Whilst marching behind a wall of walker.

What does everyone think?

Aside from the fact you don't have any scoring units it looks like a fun list. It will be very slow as you know. Any list like DE will have fun shooting from a distance and flying around your units. Should be a lot of fun even if you get beaten and would look great on the table top.

As discussed a few hard counters (cronair in particular) but it does what you want and will surprise a lot of 6th Ed lists.

Fully accept Mass air is a problem but i don't see how Deldar can stay away for long the foot print of 18 kans and 4 dreds is pretty big.

Plus 4 shock attacks gun moving and shooting is brutal, not to mention 18 grotzookas, so thats 36 str 6 pie plates. good luck taking that many cover saves on your paper planes.

As you say, i think its worth it just to see the look on every opponents face when they see you deploying 22 walkers

If you are going to go this route for a FUN army then you might want to look at Forgeworld Imperial Armour number 8 ..Dread Mob..Check it out...

If you want it to stay a full codex army ..then a simple solution ..will be to swap 1/2 the Kans to having Big Shootas ..or ditch the Meganobz for Lootas ..actually in this list Lootas with Meks are prolly more appropriate than Meganobz on foot ..

They would fit the them better anyway ..

Lootas would be good for the list

Ok so here's a revision:

Id suggest a KFF mek or two to tag along all these walkers with maybe a group or two with grots for capturing objectives and give a decent cover save along the trip.
