As we Discussed on the show this list is really cool and has a lot of top end potential. But, it requires some essential tweeks. The archetype of the list is predicated on flooding the field with trukks and boys that have big mobility and the capacity to survive a turn or 2 of shooting before getting into combat. It is exceptionally difficult for your opponent to open the Trukks and then kill 60+ orks without them getting into combat.
With that in mind, we need to trim out the non-essentials. For me, this is the Mega Nobz and Storm Boys. We all love those models, and moving 4d6 plus 12″ is friggin sweet. But if we’re gonna make this list tick at a high level, we gotta trim that stuff out. Mega Nobz are frustratingly easy to kill and the Storm Boys don’t have the punch to legitimate their cost.

I think more bodies and more obsec is where i think this list shines. And i think more trukks and more nob bikes fits that bill better than mega nobs and storm boys.
In my version the list comes out with 17 ObSec units (in 114 models) and a “mini-death star” of ork Nobz that can go toe to toe with just about everything. They will also absorb a ton of shooting that would otherwise be dedicated to blowing up trukks. I would also encourage anyone playing this list to not be shy about breaking the IC’s off from the nobz when it makes sense to do so. That’s always one of the biggest mistakes I see from opponents playing with actual deathstars…. they wait far too long before breaking it up and it can often cost them the game.
