Also, forcing "No Retreat!" wounds on those boyz squads from the mob rule would be good.

Other than that, I can't help you. I've never faced another ork player before.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/975159.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/975159.page GMT How do I stop a HORDE army? AV 14 on the front, meaning that as long as you face them the right way, the lootas will never be able to kill them.)

Other than that, your nob bikers should be able to take on his boyz and win, provided you only charge one unit at a time, try to isolate them from each-other and their Kan wall.

Edit: Wait...how did he get 25 kommandos?

What weapons are your Kanz running?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/975237.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/975237.page GMT Re:How do I stop a HORDE army?
a HORDE army is 120 boyz at 1k points,
a HORDE army is bringing your army in buckets, spilling them onto the table, setting them right, and pushing them all behind the 12" line.
a HORDE army is imperial guard with minimum options, CCS + Infantry Platoons only.
a HORDE army is nids with all their troops choices filled.

a HORDE army is not 130-ish models at 2000 points.

The answer to your question: Burnas in battlewagons. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/975347.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/975347.page GMT Re:How do I stop a HORDE army?
Lootas can't touch your front armor on your wagons and if you force them to move they can't shoot you. Your bikers should have a field day ripping though mobs of boyz as well. If you can get your bikers stuck in the lootas will have nothing to shoot at.

Got a point there. 40 - 60 boyz at 2000 points is not a horde. 180 boyz + extras is what you'd be facing in a 2000 points horde list.

Burnas in battlewagons is pretty much the ork's answer to massed models.

For the last time, that is a large model count not horde...

I run 80 Boyz, 20 Lootas, 20 Nobz, 10 Kommandos + Snikrot, 9 Warbuggies, and 2 Warbosses.

I do not consider that a horde army. Just a high model count.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/976613.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/976613.page GMT How do I stop a HORDE army? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/976761.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/976761.page GMT How do I stop a HORDE army? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977112.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977112.page GMT How do I stop a HORDE army? bs and 2 kustom blastas]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977500.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977500.page GMT Re:How do I stop a HORDE army? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977561.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977561.page GMT How do I stop a HORDE army?

DCCW, so they will still mess things up in CC (actually they will instakill nobs, but it'd be a bit hard to get to grips with them, and there's so many power Klaws in there you'd get torn up real good, boyz only get the one nob with his PK though, unless he gets lucky and gets 3x pens, your probably pretty safe.)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977903.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/977903.page GMT How do I stop a HORDE army?

Did you mean they are "for" BS or have BS 4? (because they are BS 3). and kustom blastas aren't very effective against hordes because your spending points on strength and ap you dont need. Your killakans will insta kill 3 ork boyz with a good round of shooting. grotzookas (for half the cost) not only have enough AP to deal with hordes but you will hit way more of them. Skorchas may do the trick but thats going to require your kans to be dedicated to combats sooner than they would otherwise have to be, little but more riskier than keeping them just out of assault range pinging away at them with templates.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/979979.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/256714/979979.page GMT Re:How do I stop a HORDE army?
