Hey Guys I'm starting an 40k Orks army what do you think of this 1000p army

1 Ork Warboss, mega armour, cyborg body 110p

12 boyz, nob, powerclaw, bospole, trukk with reinforced ram X2 304p

20 boyz, nob powerklaw bospole X2 320p

5 meganobz in trukk, reinforced ram 240p

meganobz taken as troop choices because of the warboss

warboss goes in trukk with meganobz

if you got the points switch the truk for a battle wagon >:3 with 4 big shootas never get rokits because of bs 2 mabe a kannon on it as well with a deff rola and mabe a killa kannon if you have the points but over all this looks fine :3

I disagree, particularly if you're playing competitively, or against more serious players even in just fruiendly games.

Either mechanize or footslog, don't mix the two....it balkanizes your force and allows your opponent to deal with your army in several parts instead of all at once.

Trukks are infinitely inferior to battlewagons for multiple reasons, but can work, albeit less effectively, but they need to be spammed.

Battlewagons: don't load up with 4-5 guns, unless you want to stay stationary to shoot them all. Battlewagons are an amazing delivery system, and can(and should always) take deffrollas, which, along with Warboss PK attacks, are the Orky answer to AV14.

One weapon is sufficient, and is there to prevent a weapon destroyed result from turning into an immobilized result.



At 1k points, I'm fielding 3 battlewagon mobz and 5 lootas, or something similar.

That is hardly a meganob army.

Why don't you go the whole hog?

Warboss, mega-armour, boss pole
Warboss, mega-armour, boss pole
4 Meganobz, 2 c-skorcha, 1 c-rokkit
- Battlewagon, deff rolla, plank, big shoota
3 Meganobz, 1 c-skorcha, 1 c-rokkit
- Battlewagon, deff rolla, plank, big shoota
3 Meganobz, 1 c-skorcha
- Battlewagon, deff rolla, plank, big shoota
1000pts

Should work fairly well at 1000pts. Has to be one of the quickest and easiest ork armies to build too

If you want to keep closer to your original:
Warboss, mega-armour, bosspole
5 Meganobz, 3 c-skorcha, 1 c-rokkit
- Battlewagon, deff rolla, plank, big shoota, plates, riggers
18 Boyz, nob, claw, bosspole
- Battlewagon, deff rolla, plank, big shoota, riggers
17 Boyz, nob, claw, bosspole
- Battlewagon, deff rolla, plank, big shoota, riggers
1000pts

Trukks are pretty bad, they die from a stiff breeze. You will become accustomed to walking (and loosing) if you go with trukks.

The 2nd list Illumini posted would probably be the most effective imo, 3 av 14 vehicles is difficult to deal with in 1000pts.

the first list that Illimini posted is the best, it is an actual meganob army.
