So I decided I really wanted to run a Dread Mob list and do something interesting with it. As I worked through my options I ended up leaving the forgeworld list (due to financial cost and the fact the rules get confusing due to age) and going for the formation. This is for a tournament where we select warlord Trait so know that my Big Mek will be able to call a Waaagh for my Dread Mob.

Dread Mob

Big Mek
-Mega Force Field

Pain Boy

3 Deff Dreads

3 units of 3 Killa Kans
-Rokkit Launchas

2 Morkanauts
-KFF (this can greatly improve the survivability of the other walkers )

CAD
Big Mek
Mek
Mek

2 minimum units of Gretchin

Buzzgobs Big Mek Stompa
-Deff Kannon
-Gaze of Mork
-Lifta Droppa
-3 Big Shootas

So all the big meks, meks, pain boy, and a unit of Gretchin climb inside buzzgob while a unit of Gretchin hide in a corner and cower (wish I didn't have to take them) the rest of the army does what you'd expect, lumber up the mid field and gets ready to charge things. Stompa has 5 repair attempts a turn. As long as I cuddle up properly I can get pretty much everything a 5++ and my stompa is rocking a 4++, all of that is only good against shooting but that helps me cross the board for sure. Thoughts?
