The idea is to simply have the grots in a wall that gives everything behind a 4+ cover save. If they shoot at the grots, who cares. There are enough to survive a battle of attrition that the enemy can not survive (hopefully) without taking more losses. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2275487.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2275487.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work?
180 targets (all scoring) at 1000 points is pretty good.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2275530.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2275530.page GMT Re:1000 pt grot horde - will it work? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2275688.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2275688.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276043.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276043.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276159.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276159.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work?

To make it really nasty, make the Mek have a KFF.

Cover saves for a reasonable percentage of the 180 models? Yes, please!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276168.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276168.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work?
I have a 2500 point list with 160 CybOrk gretchen, 9 killl kans, and some nobs for fun. I will take forever for that force to die.

CC. Even a fairly meh CC unit will be able to take those grots apart fairly quickly, not to mention combat resolution casualties.

Though with 6 units of them, you will have less to worry about

Panic runs a Grot army with lots of Kans in it which is actually pretty cool (and well modeled too ).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2276190.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work?

Sorry for the low-level necro but does it look something like this?

Doc Optimal’s Grotbots: 2500 Point Footslog/Kanwall

HQ 1-2: 295 Points
Mad Doc (160)
Big Mek (135)
Cybork
KFF
Klaw
Attack Squig
Oiler Grot

Troops 1-6: 285*6 Points
30 Grotbots
3 Cybherds

Heavy 1-3: 165*3 Points
3 Kans
3 KMB

The Doc joins a grot mob and charges like mad while the Mek joins another grot mob and KFF's the kans (and some of the grots) during the approach.

It isn't a tourney list to be sure, but it's certainly fun.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2282736.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2282736.page GMT 1000 pt grot horde - will it work? lol

The problem with this type of list is that it starts to burn and die at anything over 1500 pts as you've already maxed out on grotz at 1000 pts so you can't keep up the ridiculous ratio.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2283571.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/336524/2283571.page GMT
