So, I finaly managed to make a ork army list in an attempt to figure out what I should buy, I tried to get up to 2000 points, With a speedy list with a bit of support. How does this look for a first test list?
I know everyone will say "Get Deffkoptas!" But I dont like importing stuff from ebay, And I dont want to use the ugly metal models tht GW sell so untill GW put up the plastic Deffkoptas in their store, None for me. And I do have a few points left to get to 2000 but I dont know what to put in them yet..
As a new player or even starting a new faction, you should really try to aim for a 750 or 1000 point list, 1250 or 1500 at most. This will give you a taste for the game/faction and let you know whether or not you want to continue playing.
I'm not new to the game, Just to orks. And small matches arent much fun, My group normaly runs 1850-2500 point games, Almost never under that. So I tried to make a middle ground 2000 point list.
Alright, I'l change the meganobs to ride in a Battlewagon. Any other sugestions on changes or additions?
Well, if you're going to go with a big army, i'd put boarding planks on all the trukks, cut the stormboys and use the points to put the meganobs in a battlewagon, and go with either all lootas or all killa kans, but not both.
hi there. you got a solid list but it could use a couple of tweaks
- first off, trukk are always getting a ram. thats a must have, also ditch two boyz and get two hq meks and put em in the respective mobs, so they can absorb the challenge that would kill your nob before he can strike
- give all nobz a bosspole
- tankbustaz should always take squigs, 5 points for a s8 attacks that hits on a 2+? thats a bargain.
- 6 meganobz in a trukk is too much. get mobz of 3 and use them as missile units
- always upgrade one loota to a mek for mob rule purposes
- killa kans are garbage, if you really like em play em, but dont expect them to perform well in a game
as a side note i would highly recommend mek gunz they are one of the best units orks have
11 Boyz
-Eavy Armour -Nob, BP, Power Klaw
-Trukk, ram

15 Stormboyz
nob, bp, pk
6 Warbikers

--Heavy Support--
9 Lootas, 1 mek
--Total--

for the rest of the points i would suggest either another warboss or bump up the tankbustaz, lootaz and warbikes or said mek gunz

i would concur. you can trimm your list by leaving out 3manz, storm boyz and a boy mob... that should be about 1500 points.
ditch another boy mob and/or the lootaz and you got a 1250 list.
begin small... test your lists and then expand. you will spare yourself alot of time, money and frustation
