Adding the wings to "Deffwing", Deffwing with air support Options

[Da Kommizzar]

Here is an Orky Deathwing list supporting Meganobz and their termy-qualities. (Minus the invul and stormshields). I hope to create a fun small ork army that bases itself around the metal hunchbacks!
I want a break from my horde-air force, with this deffwing as a nice change of scenery and a good opprotunity for modelling madness. This is meant to be extremely fun and only semi-competitive.

HQ
Ghaz
MegaBoss w/ attack squig, bosspole, cybork

Troop
Meganobz x3
-Trukk w/ armour plates, rokkit launcha, ram
Meganobz x3
-trukk w/ armour plates, rokkit launcha, ram
Gretchin, runtherd

Elite
Meganobz x3
trukk w/ armour plates, rokkit launcha, ram
Meganobz x3
trukk w/ armour plates, rokkit launcha, ram

Fast attack (Da Wingz)
deffkoptaz x3 w/ rokkitz
deffkoptaz x3 w/ rokkitz
deffkoptaz x3 w/ rokkitz

Tactics-
The Good ol' Ghaz and Warboss take seperate mobz and ride as a spearhead, the other two flank the sides. The deffkoptas buzz around messing enemy armour and protecting the trukks. Grots sit back on objectives OR play out a tactical infiltration and thwart the enemy dreads.

This list is not perfect, so I need suggestions. Mainly on composition and if the koptas should trade out for boomwagons while spending the saved points on kombi-rokkits. All C&C welcome!

Hi Mate

you can only have 1 Meganobz as troops, because you only have one warboss(Gazzy) so at the moment you only have 1 troop unit the rest are elites.

i would put a Buzz saw on one of the Deffkotpaz per unit, that will give you a little bit more Punch so if you don’t destroy the Armour with the Rokkitz and you are close enough you can assault.

just a few suggestions, what army’s do you normally face ?

Look again gorbash, he has gazzy and a megaboss, therefore he can take two units as troops.

Those Nobs are going to be stranded pretty quick, I don't think the koptas will draw enough anti tank fire to make the trukks survive long enough.

Actually...

HQ
Ghaz
MegaBoss w/ attack squig, bosspole, cybork

I believe is meant as both Ghaz and a Warboss in Mega Armour (hence MegaBoss).

Also, theres a Grot mob in there too.

On the list though, looks interesting, i'm afraid i haven't used meganobs though. I've always heard that koptas should be either 5 or 1 to limit the effect of their low leadership. Depending on points and your preffered theme maybe you could lower the number of koptas, add buzzsaws and possibly squeeze in some boomwagons if you wanted.

[GorBash]

yes my mistake

i read the "mega"bit after Gazzy and just thought it was his profile. Note to self reead and then re-read

sorry lads

A change has commenced! Warbuggies with rokkits instead of koptas... it is not fitting to the theme, but I find buggies better recently.
I am kinda not working on this list anymore though, but I am curious for suggestions. (Been working on a Home-made Codex, completely unique)


(Wow, this once-hopeless thread actually got some responses now!)

I've thought about adding some Meganobz Trukkers to my Kult of Speed list, but I'm concerned about the frailty of Trukks. Are you having much trouble with your Trukks getting blown up before they reach their target?

[Da Kommizzar]

With rams, they can use cover better than any other vehicle. They just fly over it all and hug walls. You only lose a few trukks if you place them in a bad spot or you fail your cover save.

Hmmm. It might be time for me to break out the old bitz box and start converting up some Meganobz, hahaha.

With rams, you only have a 1/36 chance of getting immobilized.
