What a good idea! Bet it'll be unfinished for a couple of years...

The list is cool, but beware of the temptation to take an all Gargant force: You will lose. You will be out-activated, and outmaneuverd by just about everyone. Even with the massive firepower, remember that the game is about the objectives, and your gargants willl have a tough time getting all three.
Having said all that, a mixed force with some gargants and some quick, cheaper troops will be nasty to oppose.
my 2cents,

Check out the Grot Attack! rule. It was added specifically to help armies that are all or primarily Gargants to hold objectives. Or at least make some attempt to do so and also force your opponent to go an grab objectives as well.

Don't need them. You can use a marker. The grots in this case aren't a unit but simply a marker to indicate the presence of a swarm of grots. They don't have a Slaver to keep them in line so as soon as any enemy appears they vanish. But you can make a marker with grots on it if you want... it isn't required though.

Hi guys,
I need to set up an Ork army for my mate to play with against my Dark Angels . In the interests of fairness I thought I would get your help, in case I got accused of being bias. I have almost all the miniatures in the range, so models aren't an option. (and of course the report will be submitted to Incoming!)
It will be a standard tournament game against 2700 points of marines, the player is a newbie to EPIC (although has wargamed for over a decade with me). The battle is on sunday, I am not sure what i'll be taking, but might use this opportunity to try out all the units I haven't used yet .
Tom.

Well could I recommend the following
1. Great Gargant (incl. Warlord) (Most Expensive) ? 850pts
2. Big Warband Plus 1 extra Ork and Grot ? 375pts
3. Big Warband ? 350pts
4. Warband Plus Flakwagon & 4 Battlewagons ? 375pts
5. Blitz Brigade 1x Flakwagon, 2 x Gunwagons & Oddboy Supa-Zzapp Wagon ? 200pts
6. Blitz Brigade 1x Flakwagon, 2 x Gunwagons & Oddboy Supa-Zzapp Wagon ? 200pts
7. Kult of Speed 8 x Bikes ? 200pts
8. Stormboyz ? 150pts
It will give a good feel to several elements of the army and the GG will certainly give your marines a few problems 
I also found a list very similar to this surprisingly successful at the WPS Club Challenge in 2004.

Looks good to me , just gotta figure out how to crush it with my marines now :S, fighting Orks is radically different from Tau bashing.

Well if you do work out how to do it, please tell me. I have great problems playing with Marines and am one of the crowd that think that they are not really a tournament army in their current condition.
