Hilarious

The mek can be awesome with Kan Wall armies since the Kustom Force Field gives the kans cover and he can fix em up. The Shokk Attack Gun is also great. Not very reliable, but very flufy and can do horrible things to your enemy, or you.

So start with a Mek with KFF, some killa kans, and the next person can add on...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366634.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366634.page GMT Re:Needs 1500 pts. Ork Army List Advice Hmmm...

Oh you could have a counts as(make your own fluff is a + in my book) Mad Dok. He can grant any unit in your horde a cybork save for 5pts a mini. That would allow you to make a "machine kult" for Orks. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366751.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366751.page GMT Needs 1500 pts. Ork Army List Advice wysiwyg.

Now, if you're doing a Green Tide army, that's just a tad more expensive. But, generally taken to be one of the harder armies to beat at lower point values, just for sheer mass. Other than templates and pie plates, a 1500 pt Green Tide could easily have six full mobs of 30 boyz, plus a little extra for the nobz to go along with them (that's including two fully kitted out Warbosses. Take a Warphead for extra fun.). That's 180 wounds, all with a 6+ cover save. In five turns, your enemy would have to deal 36 unsaved wounds every turn just to destroy your boyz. Once again, not counting the nobz or Warbosses.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366818.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366818.page GMT Re:Needs 1500 pts. Ork Army List Advice

But I agree at lower points a full blown horde is tough to handle. And best yet, you can save money by buying AOBR boyz on ebay, you can get like 20 for like 10 bucks. Sure most people say th best foot slogger Ork should be a shoota boy, but Im sure most people wouldnt mind you using them as count as shootas boyz from time to time.

You go that route, youll need to learn how to roll fast and move fast. A mob of 30 choppa boyz dish out 116 attacks and 4 PK attacks a turn, per mob. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366828.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366828.page GMT Needs 1500 pts.

The only way this could possibly happen is if you bought that army from someone at a FLGS who just happened to quit the game. If thats the case, grats, but don't expect everyone to have such luck. Even if you ebayed everything, you will not find a 2000 point orks army for anywhere near 70 dollars.

To the OP,

One mekky theme is lots of Kans. Kans IMO are a steal at 30 dollars for 3.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366836.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366836.page GMT Needs 1500 pts. Ork Army List Advice AoBR termies. An AoBR nob into a big mek w/KFF, some deffcoptaz and AoBR boyz, a boyz box, a Nob box, a Kanz box, scratchbuilt Megaboss. Oh, and some scratchbuilt Buggies.

Like I said, Mek list. Battlewagons are actually pretty easy to make, just be careful about keeping them within acceptable size limits (they're smaller than you'd think). And with a little imagination, kanz are fairly simple too. start with soda bottle tops, or paintpots, or film cannisters. Plasticard arms and legs, and some grotzookas made of plasticard and pen casings. For ideas, just search for 'scratch built killa kanz'.

And yeah, 6+ Armour saves. my bad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366928.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2366928.page GMT Re:Needs 1500 pts. Ork Army List Advice KFF and SAG.
I personally like the SAG Better but you can get one of each and see how they both perform. KFF is used to walk up with with troops or put inside a tank and use his KFF to give as make of your guys cover saves until you get up close.

You will need lots of boys. My Suggestion is to make them Shoota squads of like 20 or so and have a powerclaw boss pole guy in each one.
You will need Killa Kans and Maybe Deff Dreads. When you get further points, Meganobs and Especially Battle Wagons will be open and if you do not like the Meganobs than you can go with
Super Nob Squads which usually consist of a Painboy, Lots of Big Choppas, and Different Wargear to abuse their wound allocations.

Burna Boys and Especially Lootas is a MUST! If you are looking for fun and want a foot slogging list than invest in Old Zogwart. He could prove to be good for a few laughes if you manage to turn your opponents HQ into a Squig.

OH and TRUKKS! Get lots and Lots of TRUKKS! There is no such thing as an Ork Player who does not have a bunch of them laying around somewhere. They are funny when they get penetrated hits on them.
However for what they lack in Armor they make up for easily in Speed. Paint it red and you got your super nob squad in it. Move it up 19 Inches and It does not matter if the Trukk gets shot down. It did Its job!

TRUKKS! Plus the Kit is Amazing to Put together and Fun as Hell to paint.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2367012.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2367012.page GMT Needs 1500 pts. Ork Army List Advice
I'm not saying they are the best unit ever, but they are fun.

Personally, I like to go wiff Shoota boyz, 'speshuly in da big mobz, but eh. Youz get what youz want.


Nice thing about having that many dreds, is that they'll draw, and split, pretty much all the enemie's anti-tank fire, because you really don't want even a single one of those dreads smashing into your lines, let alone five of them. I'd suggest outfitting one or two with some Skorchas or KMBs. The KMBs are same price, and can help weaken up tanks before assault, and skorchas are good when smashing into infantry positions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2405912.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342017/2405912.page GMT Needs 1500 pts.
