Please note: I do not own all these models. I'll have to work at building this back up--I have a bunch of bikes, but not nearly this much. So let me know if you think it's worth the investment!

HEAVY SUPPORT:

10 Lootas: 140 pts

Yes, the Lootas are out-of-theme. I'm okay making that sacrifice to have Lootas take out light armor, walkers, etc. Plus, thematically, SOMEONE has to patch up the bikes and loot the loot, you know? Maybe they ride sissy on the Warbikers in between battles. I don't know! It's madness.

Basic strategy: Zhadsnark and the Painboy join up with the big unit of bikers and go wreck faces. The rest of the bikes shoot and assault as needed. The buggies are there because they're cheap as chips and it's hard for me to turn down a mobile TL Rokkit for the points. Heck, they're practically twice the cost of a Boy with a Rokkit, but they're fast, they're largely immune to small arms fire (I did say largely), and they're just kinda cool.

I admit I'm somewhat split on the Dakkajet at the moment. I could take another 10 Lootas for roughly the same cost. What do you guys think?

also in many situations the dakkajets safer than lootas, but can also get unlucky and die easy as well as say not come on till turn 3 or 4 whereas lootas could be shooting the whole time.
i have combined both to effect. relying on just 1 or the other it tough.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699654/8840364.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699654/8840364.page GMT BS 2 would belie. For this reason I decided to take more of them over Lootas . Yes I know the Lootas are S7 but they aren't Mobile or as tough and not as utility as the bikers. Especially if you end up playing maelstrom you'll need mobility. Not to mention I'm a typical ork dice roller and I know Murphy and his law quite well when it comes to shooting. I can't count the number of times I needed a lot of S7 shots from my Lootas and I rolled to only get 1 shot each at BS 2. The TL rokkit buggies will pick up the slack for tank/ MEQ shooting where the bikes can't. Plus they are also fast. I've found recently that orks are the best shooty army in my LGS based just on the amount of TL shots I can put down range. Also the more bikes in the unit or the more min sizes squads you have the better their chances of not running from failed morale. A lone nob can't kill itself from mob rule by the way, handy thing to remember if using both min squads. I won a cluch objective that way last turn of the game to pull out a win. (Reminds me of ok Akon song "sole survivor"). Here's my list for comparison albeit mine is for lower point game. I'd forgo the dakkajet too and take rokkit koptas. I like them better I've never done much with her. It always comes it late for me and it can't turn on a dime when needed like the koptas. Plus that's more TL S8 AP3 with koptas and they have 2 wounds.
