The meta around my area includes IG, Space Wolves Thunder Cav (with Najal), Daemons, Blood Angels and a healthy grouping of Tau and fellow Orks and 1750 is our standard points for local tournaments which only use the 3 missions found in the rulebook.

The basic idea here is to have a Mek with KFF (in a wagon with Nobz) cover the 'sloggin boys as they advance. Deffkoptas with TL Rokkits for disruption and tank hunting, as I found these work wonderfully against Chimeras. 2 Wagons with Boomguns and Rokkits are fill-ins as I have no Lootas just yet.

I want to start using Old Zogwort for the simple fact that pulling off Zogwort's Curse on oh say, Lysander or a Tau Commander will make my day. The chance for a WAAAGH! does not hurt either.

HQ

145 - Old Zogwort (w/ 1 unit of Shootas)

100 - Big Mek - KFF, Bosspole, Cybork (in Wagon #1 w/ Nobz)

Elites

335 - 7 Nobz (in Wagon #1 w/ Nobz)
1 PK, WAAGH! Banner
1 PK, Shoota/Rokkit
1 PK, Shoota/Skorcha
1 Big Choppa, Shoota/Rokkit
1 Big CHoppa, Shoota/Skorcha
1 Big Choppa, TL Shoota
1 Painboy
Cybork Bodies for everyone!

Troops

174 - 19x Shoota Boyz w/ 2x Rokkits
x1 Nob w/ PK, Bosspole

174 - 19x Shoota Boyz w/ 2x Rokkits
x1 Nob w/ PK, Bosspole

174 - 19x Shoota Boyz w/ 2x Rokkits
x1 Nob w/ PK, Bosspole

40 - 10x Gretchin w/ Runtherd

Fast

115 - 2x Deffkoptas - TL Rokkits
115 - 2x Deffkoptas - TL Rokkits
115 - 2x Deffkoptas - TL Rokkits

Heavy

75 - Looted Wagon - 2x Rokkits, Red, Plates, Plank
130 - Looted Wagon - 2x Rokkits, Red, Boomgun
130 - Looted Wagon - 2x Rokkits, Red, Boomgun


The Gretchin are simply for capturing Objectives.

Deployment would be to have the Mek Wagon centered and screen the whole army with the KFF by snaking the 3 Units of Shootas. Deffkoptas would use their turbo and socut move to get some opening shots on side armor and crack some transports. Unless it's against the IG, then they will crack the Manticore ASAP.

So it's not much, but then again, I don't have much yet (converting a unit of Kans and 2 Dreads), saving for Lootas. :-)

Nobs

Drop all those special weapon rokkits. They aren't going to hit. You will want 2 bosspoles instead of those rokkits. Just 1 bosspole on the Mek won't do for ya, as the Mek will die in assault.


Boys

Again drop the rokkits you won't hit. Waste of points. Shoota boys are geared to kill infantry. So use big shootas instead.

Grechin

I would run no less than 20 gretchin. You do not want to make a leadership test. Park them on a rear obj in cover and just go to ground if fired at.

Deffkoptas

Just run 1. You lose 1 in the shooting phase and the other just runs off the board. Dropping 1 gives you the points to give them buzzsaws which are awsome.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/314929/1894493.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/314929/1894493.page GMT
