Recently begun revisiting my orks, and am building towards this list. I would like to hear opinions on where the list falls short, just keep in mind there is an overall theme.

I think against a gun line list you'll be tabled by turn 2.

You're going to be running up the field on foot, with only 22 models. There's nothing to soak up the fire.
And you can forget about holding objectives, you don't have enough Troops to make it to the enemy, let alone defend anything.

Are those Nobs on Bikes as well? If so, the list is nastier than first glance. I wouldn't call it competitive though.

Whoops, little bit of necessary information there haha, yes, they are on bikes. Thanks.

I'd call it more competitive than casual. But, don't think its completely inappropriate for casual play so long as your opponent has any idea what they are doing.

I was brainstorming about maybe dropping a pk from each squad for a naked adl for lootas. Maybe even making the nobs squads of 9 to take a quad gun and a squad of grots to man it and hold an objective.

Better off finding the room for a Landing Pad instead, though a naked ADL could work. Don't be afraid of letting a Loota man a Quadgun, its not that bad. Finding the poitns for some Objective holding Gretchin with a Quadgun could be cool.

that is not a bad Idea ...
at 9 Nobz each you will most likey get across the feild to do damage..and 6 PKs is more than enough ..all eggs in one basket ..win lose or draw by turn 3 ..

Yeah the nob bikers will definitely make it across the table.

You will struggle against units in buildings depending on the type of terrain your opponent chooses.

This is definitely an all or nothing list, haha.

I like the idea of adding the ADL, quad gun and grots. gives you a small group to hold a backfield objective

Even better a battery of Big Gunz.
Take as many extra krew as possible, so there's plenty of T7 Bs3 Grots to fire the Quad Gun.
Not scoring normally, but much more durable / shooty.

Thanks for helping me soundboard some ideas. I've decided to pick up an adl and quadgun to give the lootas reliable 2+ gtg saves as well as a squad of grots for their bs3 and to adress scoring issues. Gonna use the extra 10 points for kombiburnas on the warbosses.

might want to think making the bikers without pk's havin big choppas, they payoff against vehicles or even tougher units, you seem to have alot of pk's in that group might want to cut it down to 1pk for each waros and 1 nob with a pk (thats still 4 which is powerful), grendel makes a good point about the big guns as well (altho id also take them with the amo runts) and if its comptative would depend on match type. if it is a objective based game your going to be hurting, but if your just going for kill points, you will do great, be weary of fliers with that list tho, also as for the adl if your playing in a board with lots of terain and ruins, i wouldn't bother as your lootas canget some pretty good coverage for free points in there, if thats not the case then id take the adl.

Big Gunz seem like something interesting to try at a later date. I've never looked twice at them because in previous lists my heavy slots were always taken up by battlewagons. Do people usually take Lobbas or Kannons?

I ran a list like this the other day, it got murdered by a fraction of its points in volume of fire psychic shooting from Daemons of Chaos.
