HQ -

Warboss with PK, TL shoota, 'eavy armor = 95pts

Troops -

4 semi diversified Nobz, big choppa, TL shoota, 'eavy armor = 110pts

29 boyz with a nob, PK, Boss Pole = 220

Fast Attack -

1 Deffkopta, TL Rokkit Launcha = 45pts

1 Deffkopta, TL Rokkit Launcha = 45pts

According to my math this list comes to 500 pts exactly. Now as for the reasoning behind my list. It's mostly footslogging except for the deffkoptas. My idea was that they would be suicide units to take out heavy armor, i'm not sure if he's bring chimeras or a LR. If he isn't bringing either of those I would trade out the kopta's for a suicide bike squad to take out the biggest infantry it could. I semi diversified the nobz, meaning one nob is just the stock nob. The warboss will join this group, so even if that one needs to be removed first they wouldn't have to make a LD check because they would've only lost 20 percent of their unit.

Any thoughts? Am I going about this all wrong?

or
a 5+ save ALL the time?

Ditch the nobz, in games this small orks win by bodycount, for 110pts you can get just under 20 boyz (20 boys is 120pts, so maybe 18 boyz) and in a game this small the shoota on the boss is wasted (he will be running to get his PK into assault, not shooting) so use the points to get the 2nd mob of boyz up to 19, then attach the warboss to it.

I would suggest something like this:

HQ -
Warboss with PK, Cybork Body

Troops -
29 Slugga boyz with a nob, PK, Boss Pole = 220pts

19 Slugga boyz (warboss in here) =114pts

Fast Attack -
1 Deffkopta, TL Rokkit Launcha = 45pts

1 Deffkopta, TL Rokkit Launcha = 45pts

I'm in work so don't have a codex to hand, and therefore can't give you exact values, but I'm sure you can work them out.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2429431.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2429431.page GMT Re:500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle
Alrighty then, I like that list and think I can adjust to the models I have. I really only have 40 boyz to start with. Will this even be close to enough? Because the list would look more like this.

HQ-
Warboss with PK, Cybork

Troops-

20 slugga boyz and a Nob with PK, Boss pole

20 slugga boyz (insert warboss here)

Fast Attack-

1 Deffkopta, TL Rokkit Launcha

1 Deffkopta, TL Rokkit Launcha

Is 40 boyz enough? In that list you've managed to squeeze about fifty in there.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2429991.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2429991.page GMT 500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle LR, considering that using just one of them takes up 30% of his 500 points.

At this point level, I would drop the Deffkoptas and just spam Boyz. You will easily win through sheer body count and you should be able to field 60 Boyz without a problem.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2430011.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2430011.page GMT 500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle
95 Points for an HQ:
Either a Cybork/KFF Mek or a Cybork/Klaw Boss. I prefer the Mek but I understand you like your Boss and it's another Klaw, so there's that.

Troops 1, 2: 202 points each
27 Boyz including a Klaw-Pole-Nob

That's 54 boyz, 2 klaws and a KFF or 54 boyz and 3 klaws. Pretty dead killy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2430207.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2430207.page GMT 500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle TL rokkit launchas to get the saws. The koptas will kill tanks by turbo-boosting on the scout move, and then if you get the first turn, assaulting a tank and getting auto strength 7 hits on rear armour. A TL BS2 weapon is basicly BS3, so I would never count on killing a tank with 2 strength 8 BS3 shots. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2431232.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2431232.page GMT Re:500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle
Buzz saw sounds pretty good, and since its only a 500 point game i'd say that its a good chance the koptas will get to the tank on turn one for the big kill.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2431988.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2431988.page GMT Re:500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle

I've squeezed more than 50 into a 500pt list before, it performs quite well (especially against MEQs) simply due to numbers.

40 boyz might be enough, if you use the extra points to complement them, by, say,giving the koptas buzzsaws, From what you have said, I'm guessing that you own 2xAoBR, or 1xAoBR and some extra boyz?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2433311.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2433311.page GMT Re:500pt Ork Warband for upcoming IG battle AoBR box set and the Ork Battleforce. So I got a total of forty boyz, three koptas, three bikes and a trukk. I have yet to assemble the trukk because I feel it wouldn't be so useful since I only have one. And I plan on converting the bikes a bit so I wanted to take my time on them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2434096.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/345737/2434096.page GMT
