Good solid list (I can repeat myself as well). I would change the aircraft to 5, 4 & 3. Also I'd split the Uge gunmob up as you don't want it as your BTS.

Thanks!! Why would you have the fighta bombas in gruoups of 3,4,5 instead of 4,4,4?

The idea behind the huge gunmob was to Garrison them and put them on overwatch so my opponent would be very worried about moving his troops in sight.
But maybe the the BTS should be kept in the back and not being easy to reach.

Hey mordoten,

Like TT said, a fairly solid list. I'd be tempted to make a couple of tweaks though, mainly around your gunzmob.

Having the gunzmob gives you a really vulnerable BTS. With no armour save they are sitting ducks if you can't get them into cover.
A wiley opponent will position his objectives so that you don't have cover nearby to garrison into, meaning you may end up deploying close to your own blitz in order to find cover. This means that having your gunz in the 'back field' it also makes it easier for you opponent to avoid them.

I'd change it to this:-

Big gunz, with Zzap - 175pts

Big gunz, with Zzap - 175pts

Warband, UGE - 500pts

Doing this increases your activation count and, crucially, means your warband is now your BTS instead of your gunzmob.
The boyz are faster, have an armour save, are 30 models strong instead of only 15, and much more likely to rally (and shed blast markers due to the nobz)

Just my two cents....


Anyway, hope this helps/makes sense. Above all, the best way to learn is to start playing a few games with them and you'll quickly learn what works for you and what doesn't.

Let us know how you get on :)

Cheers
Reedar

The thinking is your opponent will see your massed aircraft and group his AA around his BTS/most vulnerable formations. You use the 5 planes to smash the main AA, greater number so more will survive any hits. Followed by the 4 and then the 3 if needed. It also means that if there are different sized formations that you want to go after you don't end up sending too many points after, say, a lone Rhino.

So with all your suggestions in mind i will try this setup i think:

FIGHTA SQUADRON [150]
3 Fighta Bomba

FIGHTA SQUADRON [200]
4 Fighta Bomba

FIGHTA SQUADRON [250]
5 Fighta Bomba

LANDA [200]

LANDA [200]

WARBAND [250]
2 Nobz, 6 Boyz, 2 Grotz, 2 Boyz + Grotz

WARBAND [250]
2 Nobz, 6 Boyz, 2 Grotz, 2 Boyz + Grotz

MEKBOY GUNMOB (BIG) [360]
10 Big Gunz, 2 Oddboy, Flakwagon

BLITZ BRIGADE (BIG) [250]
2 Flakwagon, 6 Gunwagon

BLITZ BRIGADE (BIG) [250]
2 Flakwagon, 6 Gunwagon

STORMBOYZ WARHORDE [150]
6 Stormboyz

WARBAND ('UGE) [500]
6 Nobz, 18 Boyz, 6 Grotz, Warlord

Kinda keen on trying out a bigger gunmob with 2 Zappa guns. I Think they can be a real torn in the side if they manage to garrison in cover and are set to OW. It might discourage the opponent to rush forward early and let me take the fight to his side of the table, like orks should do! :-)
