Ork Question, then 1500 point Ork Shooty List

Hey Guys...

How much is a Deff Copta with twinlinked Rockets? 35? 45?

As in teh one outta AoBR? 35 IIRC.

Only thing that needs explaination... the 5 strong Mek Boy unit walks behind the deff dreds and killa kanz (earning a cover save) and is available to repair weapon destroyed results, if need be.

I have 25 points left to spend to get to 1500. Ammo Runts maybe???

HQ ---

1. Big Mek with Shokk Attack Gun = 95
2. Big Mek with Kustom Force FIeld = 85

Total = 180

Elites ---

1. 10xLootas = 150
1. 5xBurnas 75
3 meks, 1 each gun, +5 = 80

Total = 230

Troops --

1. 20 Slugga Boyz, WYSWYG = 170
2. 20 Shoota Boyz, WYSWYG = 170
4. Deff Dread w\ Schorchas = 85
5. Deff Dread w\ Schorchas = 85

Total = 510

Fast Attack --

1. 3xDeff Cotpas w\ Rokkets = 105

Total = 105

Heavy --

1. 3xKilla Kanz w\ Rockets = 150
2. 3xKilla Kanz w\ Rockets = 150
3. 3xKilla Kanz w\ Rockets = 150

Heavy = 450

It costs 10 points to upgrade a deffcopta to a twin-linked rokkit. So they are 45.

Ah, then I'm 5 points over. Mek downgraded to a big shoota then :-)

One glaring issue I just noticed, the Shokk Attack gun guy is standing by himself somewhere. Probably in the back corner, but still... he's taking a lascannon shot to the face and only has 2 wounds at T4.

D'oh!!! Stupid memory!!!

Thanks for the catch Tim

I don't really see what that small burna unit will accomplish. They will get shot by a bolter and run off the table. Drop them to give the Big Mek a grot screen (can also camp an objective) for 40 points and use the rest to upgrade your deffcoptas. Put a klaw on one of them for sure.

I was actually thinking of getting some more grots and painting 30 of 'em, because they look like they're fun to paint. :-) (I have 10 and a Runtherd already, so two more boxes for $30 isn't so bad)

I see what you're saying about the burna unit. I figured 80 points for 3 meks to help keep things up & running, probably have the KFF mek there too. A couple of dudes to soak up wounds... 4+ cover save from a shield of kanz and target priority issues for my opponent... But ya... it's more gimmick than it is good.

That unit is just way too easy for your opponent to remove. And using burnas as the base for it makes it not exactly cheap either. Just throw the KFF Mek in with one of the big troops choices. You could use the points saved to bulk up those foot mobs to 30 also.
