<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Need help making mega armour themed list"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Need help making mega armour themed list Ive been thinking about what kind of list I wanna run with my orks and I truly interested in a build that revolves around alot of heavy armour and such since it would be really cool to build and also be very fitting for my Badmoon's fluff.

I was wondering if this build would be effective game wise or if you guys could show me how this could be made effective.

Units that I wanna use the most are:
Meganobs
Mega armoured Warboss (or Ghaz)
Big Mek w/ Kff
Deff Dread
Killa Kans
Lootas

any help would be greatly appreciated, and I apologize for not havuing a list to post but I have absolutely no idea what to do (being a born again ork noob who hasnt played orks in a long time)

It's a tough job to make a competitive army out of that list. Kans and the KFF Mek obviously go well together, but the other things don't fit with them. Meganobs need transport and transports don't mesh well with Kans. Dreads mostly just suck. Lootas can fit into almost any list.

If you want to try a Kan Wall with a few Meganobs, I suppose it isn't the worst idea in the world, but the Slow and Purposeful will really blow.

You could try a half mech half footslogger list, but it really isn't a great idea, competitively. Both the Kans and the transports need a KFF and one can't be in both places. Most competitive Kan Wall lists run two KFFs to cover all of the Kans. One KFF is fine in a Wagon rush list.

If you want the Meganobs, you should probably go with Wagons. If you want the Kans, you should probably forget the Mega-armored guys.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504562.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504562.page GMT Need help making mega armour themed list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504610.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504610.page GMT Need help making mega armour themed list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504686.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504686.page GMT Need help making mega armour themed list KFF?

Then fill out the rest of your list as needed. You could take a dread as a troop choice since you have a big mek, but it doesn't really have a place in a BW rush list. Maybe some grots to grab objectives.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504712.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504712.page GMT Need help making mega armour themed list
I've thought about using Grotsnik, but never had time (plus his need to go to closest enemy). I also only have 5 meganobz. They do ok with a mega-boss, but you have to pick your targets wisely since the boss is the only one with cybork.

LOVE my wound allocated Nobz, however....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504789.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3504789.page GMT Need help making mega armour themed list
I think meganobs fit with a Kan well very well. They are slow like the wall should be. They are stompy like a wall is. The lack of invul save is not that big ofr a deal. You just have to choose your targets better. Don't run them against a terrminator squad, instead charge some marines/scouts.

Dreads are awesome no matter what most say. They have there place and they do what they need to. I run 3 in my army and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Lootas are a much needed support unit for a kan wall. They provide that all important cover fire and transport opener. They are a must. I useally run 30 of them in 2 squads. Awesome unit.

I use 2 meks as I feel they are the backbone of the wall and need to be there. One just isn't enough.

Kans of course are what this list is about. They are best used for anti tank IMO. With there upgraded BS they help tremedously in that respect.

I have never used mega bosses. Like I said before meks are so useful. I can see them being helpfull as well but not so much as meks.

Ok so I have gone through the units you would like to use. Now we go on to a list that I built that reflect what you want.

2000 pts.

Mek: KFF, Armor
Mek: KFF, Armor

Lootas x15
Meganobs x6: 4x Kombi weapon(you can choose type)
Meganobs x6: 4x Kombi weapon(same thing)

Shootas x20: BShoota
-Nob: PK, BShoota, BP
Shootas x20: BShoota
-Nob: PK, BShoota, BP
Shootas x15
-Nob: PK, BShoota, BP
Dread: 2x BShoota, Plates, Rigger
Dread: 2x BShoota, Plates, Rigger

Kans x3: Rokkits
Kans x3: Rokkits
Dread 2x DCCW, Plates, Rigger

Ok so this is really close to what I play. I take more lootas then Meganobs. But seems like you want more Meganobs. I think this list would work and work well. You could drop the 3rd Dread to get more kans if you wish. But honestly this is to show you an idea. You can mix and match what you see fit. I like to provide lists for people to show them what can be done, not to tell them what to take. The third squad of shootas I reserve to come on later to take an objective or help with DS'ing unit in my back field.

Well there you go Good Luck! I hope this has been helpful and informative.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3505058.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/406696/3505058.page GMT
