I'll be having a game next week and I wanted to bring some of my latest ork minis.

The big guy here is a squiggoth, and the list is basically built around it. I would like to get your thoughts on how to make the list a bit better.
pen to suggestions, as well as ideas for combos with klan cultures, traits or different units.

Warboos in Mega armour

10 boyz
10 gretchin

5 komandos, Klaw on nob

4 warbikers, nob with klaw
4 warbikers

9 flashgitz with Kaptain
Squiggoth

Trukk

So, the idea is to get the boyz and the warboss on the trukk, launh them foward close to the squiggoth with the flashgitz on top. Bikers following as well, looking more to cover flanking maneuvers.
Gretching at the back, holding own objective, and komandos helping out with that task or pushing foward too depending on the situation.

I've used a list with that squiggoth+ flashgitz before, although it was a 2000p one and I had 2 of these groups, suported by both a ton of boyz and dreads. Really fun to see the face of your opponent when he realize you can move, shoot, charge, fight and keep shooting evening in combat.

thread is a bit old, but I have found my squiggoth can get bogged down in melee if it does not wipe out a unit, which it almost never does. Then it slowly dies. So having some CC support available for the squiggoth is crucial to get the most out of it.
