Edited: I was using Battle Scribe.

HQ
2 Warbosses, Mega, BP, AS, Cybork

Troop (double unit below)

11 Mega Nobz
BW, Kannon, 4 Rokkits, Grots, RPJ, Armor, Deff Rolla

That is 24 Orks in 2 BWs.

Would this be viable or is it a Bucket-o-Fail?

MANz cant take cybork

or a pain boy for that matter

you'd have to give them heavy armour if they are just a regular Nobz squad

You could, though, run Mad Dok and give them Cybork that way. You'd be dropping some MANZ and some upgrades to do so. Off the top of my head I'd say if you ditched the Kannons, Rokkits, and Grots off of the BWs, that'll be 120points right there. Tell the Attack Squids to go take a hike, that'll save you another 30 for a total of 150...

So lets see:

1 Warboss: MA, BP, Cybork: 105 (Mad Dok Cybork is cheaper than his own upgrade)

1 Mad Dok: 160

MANZ: 22 (all with Cybork): 990 (spit into three units of 9, 9, and 4, one of which is a Troops Choice due to WB. Toss the WB into one group of MANZ and a BW. Toss Mad Dok into the other group of MANZ with another BW, have the group of 4 footslog it.)

x2 BW: RPJ + Deff Rolla: 115/ea: 230

=1485 giving you 15pts to play with for more options.

If you drop a MANZ out of the group of four, you can give the threesome a trukk as a transport (35pts) with RPJ (5), leaving you with 20 points to play with for more options.


Anyway, I've seen a total MANZ list rule in the 1000 to 2000 range. We have a guy at our FLGS who does this all the time and he rips people up. I've even taken him on in a "Boyz vs. Toyz" battle and he totally crushed me. I might've dropped maybe one or two of his MANZ before he took me out.

This is kind of like a list I was thinking of running:

But I like it. Simple and straightforward.

Go with Jester's suggestions but I might add armor plates just to make sure those battlewagons don't get stopped, and maybe even a KFF mek for the forcefield.
