I am attending an ITC style tournament at the end of the month and was hoping to get some feedback on my current list.

CAD1 (1420 pts):
HQ:
Zadsnark 150 (Warlord)
Warboss,stikk,bike,pk 135
TROOPS:
15 bikers,nob,pk 305
3 bikers 54x2=108
ELITES:
8 tankbustas,trukk,ram 139x3=417
FAST ATTACK:
1 deffkopta 30x3=90
HEAVY SUPPORT:
5 lootas 70x3=210

CAD2 (434 pts):
HQ:
Painboy,bike,bp,grot orderly 85
Big Mek,bike,killsaw,kff 140
ELITES:
8 tankbustas,trukk,ram 139
TROOPS:
10 grots,runtherd 35x2=70

My previous list used the Great Waaagh! detachment from the Ghaz supplement before the update but it is no longer in the book. Unfortunately this means no fearless for my bike blob and no 4++ invul vs shooting. I took the points from losing a warboss and downgrading the force field and got a 3rd lootas unit and the 3 deffkoptas as well as rams on the trukks and a grot orderly for the painboy.

If I drop the tankbustas, deffkoptas, lootas and second CAD I could take the Great Waaagh!-Band and regain access to the relics but I am unsure if the tax for taking a mek,nobz and 6 boyz squads is worth it.

It is also worth noting that I have tested this vs 2 Tau army lists and was successful both times due to tankbustas drowning the stormsurge in rokkits turn 1 or 2 but I lose a lot of my bikers to marker lights removing their cover.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8628874.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8628874.page GMT [1850] - Orks Double CAD

If that is the case you can cut at least one grot squad.

It's extremely survivable, but more than it really needs to be and you could really use another 2x 3 warbike units for objectives, displacing overkill Ws, and more flexibility in the shooting phase.

The major one would be to drop the Big Mek altogether. The Bikers have a 4+ jink, 3+ will Zhad confering skilled rider, and another +1 turboboost bonus for a potential jink save of 2+. The KFF would only really be effective over the jink vs Tau, but MSU is a stronger strategy vs Tau overall and the KFF won't be enough to stop a round of Tau shooting from severely disabling the squad anyway.

Will the spare points I recommend a Void Shield Generator which will help out way more vs shooting, even Tau Shooting, than the KFF. Alternatively a 3rd warboss would be pretty gross, the killchoppa would give you more I4 attacks which is great vs MEQs and the rend+ID combo is good vs MCs and ICs.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8629591.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8629591.page GMT [1850] - Orks Double CAD i would lose the lootas in this case to get more tankbustas and more bikers..(need more tiny units of bikers) and your main deathstar only need hit 17 models with characters added to hit the must kill 4 break point otherwise you want it to hit 21..which is nigh on impossible these days ...better to have a pile of small biker units each with its own nop+ (bc or pk)..more threats..(nob with bc can take down most non landraider vehicles)

Does this look better? If I drop the deffkoptas I could bring bomb squigs but they might be useful for soaking up overwatch for my bikes, or turbo boostiing to an objective. I am tempted to put big choppa nobz on the 3-biker units just so they can cause some extra trouble, 15 extra points isn't too much to cause a distraction. I was also thinking of doing 2 10-bike blobs with Zad in one and the warboss in the other and getting a second painboy so they have 1 each.

The one thing I am always unsure of is who to give the bosspole to in the biker unit--the painboy because I don't want him in challenges or the lucky stikk warboss because he is least likely to die to ranged fire?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8630812.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8630812.page GMT [1850] - Orks Double CAD BP ..Painboy is just a buff and is easier to ID than the WB (WB can only be ID by D, Force, Special)

The nob in the big group does not need a PK ..Lower to BC ..
Drop two deffkoptas for Nob, BC,BP in the small biker groups..and bombsquigs in the tankbustas..
This makes all the biker groups viable threats..

I changed the blob biker unit to 13 (17 with hqs) so the unit doesn't need a morale check until 5 are dead. I am valuing more bodies over the bomb squigs since rokkit launchas have longer range and better ap (I am expecting the trukks to get wrecked quickly anyway).

What does everyone think of the rams? I could get a few more models in if I risk the immobilize.

Does anyone have experience using or facing 3 bikers with big choppa nob? Just wondering what units to pit them up against. I assume pathfinders, drones, eldar msu bikes, small nids, scouts, 5-man tac squads.

Would it be worth swapping things around to get some units to camp in my deployment zone?
Dropping the second warboss or 1 tankbusta from each unit would allow some deffkoptas or lootas or some objective secured grots.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8633611.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8633611.page GMT [1850] - Orks Double CAD CC no matter what you give that nob, but their above average dakka stays exactly the same.

Stompa is almost a must at this point. I've played a lot of games against the armies I'm weak against to figure these things out. Just PM me if you want additional info. Hope this helps a bit.

Go with the one deffkopta, drop the orderly and the big choppa on the nob in the bike star and give him a powerklaw too. Lootas are okay but their high variance will be a burden in competitive setting. You need reliability in this type of situation. Two below average dice rolls and those lootas are only giving you 10 shots for 3 hits in a turn.

nitromorphine isn't wrong about the stompa either, but it's expensive both points and money wise. You'd have to basically redo your list from scratch, assuming you have most of these models already that might not be ideal. Not to mention I think you'll struggle to finish a FW model like that in time for the tournament. In addition, allied knights are a new possibility and maybe be a better, cheaper choice than the stompa overall. If you're a already doing okay vs Tau like you mentioned it might not be worth it. Your biker star is great against a whole bunch of other lists so I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater here. If you go first, blast the markerlight source with your bikes or try to charge it with your deffkopta or 3 man bike squad. If they're in CC they can't use their markerlights and your biker star will have free reign. If he goes first, maybe just think about deploying the star in reserve. At the very least remember you can make your 12" scout move with the biker star after deployment and after the seize initiative roll, so use it to get the bikes out of harms way.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8634746.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8634746.page GMT [1850] - Orks Double CAD los blocking from specific units, he can be a pivotal point against gargantuan and super heavy units, he can clear mobs utilizing stomp, and last he can soak up wounds against defensive specific armies.

As for running 2 knights with orks? You might as well go with space marines since this isn't a fluff army at all. I use the Kastrol-Novem extraction point as my display with my Zhadsnark / Buzzgob list for the tournaments.

I even went so far as to drop the warboss with lucky stick to add stability to my tankbustas with boss nobs and boss poles since I found my bikes survived everything after I set them up properly. Plus after tons of games against some top armies I felt out what I lacked and improved it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8635222.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689608/8635222.page GMT
