<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Ork army list advice."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Ork army list advice.
I started buying and painting Orks just coz I liked modelling them and now I thought I'dd make a list and play with them a bit. I just wanted some advice on how I can maximize the efficiency of my list with or without some small additions. I'm aiming at a 1500-1750 points army.

This is what I've got:

1 Warboss
1 Big Mek with Shock Attack Gun
1 Weirdboy

9 Nobz
1 Painboy

45 Boyz
30 Gretchin with 3 Runtherds
1 Trukk

3 Killa Kans with Rokkit Launchas
6 Warbikers
3 Deffkoptas

So the list I came up with is:

Unit 1:
Weirdboy - Warphead 85pts
30 Ard-Boyz with Stinkbombs and one Nob with PK 365pts

Total: 450 pts

Unit 2:
10 Nobz, one of which Painboy with GO, 8 Big Choppas, 1 Power Claw, 9 'eavy Armor, 1 Waaghbanner
Trukk with Red Paintjob, stinkbomb chucka, armour plates, boarding plank

Total: 490 pts

Unit 3:
Big Mek with Shokk Attack gun and 'eavy Armor 100pts
15 Shoota Boyz with 1 big shoota 95pts (or should I just add the 30 Gretchins here just for protection?)

Total: 195 pts

Unit 4:
3 Killa Kans with Rokkit Launchas 150pts

Unit 5:
6 Warbikes 150pts

So I'm at 1435 points here. I could add some more bikes probably. Or some more Shoota Boyz with the Big Mek. Or the Gretchins as a Unit to use them as fodder.
I could probably swap the Bikes with the Deffcoptas with Bazookas and Buzzsaws for some fast kills in the first round.

I used the Mek and the Weirdboy as I like the randomness in their weapons. Although its a recipe for an epic fail :p

Thanks in advance.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2600288.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2600288.page GMT Ork army list advice.
Are you attempting to be tournament competitive ? friendly, but reasonably competitive ? or just do-whatever-you-can-with-the-models-ya-got ?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2600496.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2600496.page GMT Ork army list advice.

I'll go more for the do what I can with the models I've got...I don't really have the time for tournaments. Just want to play with some friends once in a while. I don't mind getting some new models to make the army better though...I love painting and modelling Orks.

EDIT: For the list I cooked up I need to get some more Nobz anyway.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2600542.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2600542.page GMT Ork army list advice.
And last question before I see what I can do with a list, do you know what kind of armys you'll be facing against with your freinds? Drop podding space marines? Ig tanks? Footsloggin eldar?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2601589.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2601589.page GMT Ork army list advice.
PS For zogwort you could convert the wierdboy that you already have.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2601632.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2601632.page GMT Ork army list advice.

For example of your 45 boyz are X already modeled to be shoota boyz Y already modeled to be slugga boyz or Z already modeled to be 'ard boyz? Do your nobz already have 8 Big Choppas and 1 Power Klaw or can you change that?

First of all thanks for taking the time to help me, I really appreciate it. (gpes for both of you)

30 of the Boyz are sluggas, the rest are not modeled yet. I didn't glue the weapon hand on the Nobz yet (hooray for the new Nobz) although they're finished so I can still make changes there. The rest cannot be changed anymore. But if the idea is good I'll just go and get some new models.

As to what I'll be facing: Shoota Orks, Chaos Marines, Gray Knights, Tyranids, IG tanks....and my own drop podding SM if someone comes over without an army :p

@ ProphetWaaagh!: You're right, he's awesome....I don't know how I missed him Any tips on converting the Weirdboy? I thought I'd just add some snakes :p]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2602067.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/356150/2602067.page GMT
