Ok, I want to play competitive, fun orks! Can anyone help me come up with a list that is both enjoyable and can handle the cheese of 5E 40k?
Personally, I am thinking of making a Mech unit with a KFF keeping them relatively safe. My main opponents are Tau and Space Marines. (lots of Space Marines)
I have a budget of 150-200 max. (keep in mind 20 percent discount from warstore =P).
Any suggestions?

Ok, a list I have hammered out. Please tell me what you think. It is around 1500 pts. I'd like to get it to a solid 1750 and keep it fast and competitive.
HQ- Ghaz (Wagon 1) Big Mech w/ KFF (Wagon 2)
Troops x 4 11 Boyz w/ Nob-PK Trukk-Ram, Red Paint
19 Boys w/ Nob- PK (wagon 2)
Elites 5 Nob-2 with Big Choppa, 2 with PK Boss Pole, Wagh Banner, all in 'eavy Armor -Joined by Pain Boy (Wagon 1)
Heavy
2 Battlewagons w/ Deff Rollas and Red Paint
Fast 2 Kopptas (not in a squad, seperate) w/ Rockets and Buzz Saws. (Going to Outflank with these guys and pick off annoying armor)
Pretty straight forward Mech Rush army. With Ghaz these guys are pretty much guranteed to hit turn 2 and hit hard.

easy 200
10 kommados+burna+snikrot
now you have a mob of boyz that can outflank on any table edge...
no transport though.
snikrot himself has 5 attacks at s6 on the charge with re-roll for all failed rolls to hit.

You'd suggest that, over say, Nob Bikers?

Nob bikers are a killer but you only get 4 for 200 points, and barely anything left over for upgrades...
all you need is three...and if you take three you can trick them out pretty good... but I think I'd rather have snikrot

so, yeah... 3 models vs 10+special character...
I just figure more is better, but I've never used nob bikers...I use the hell out of warbikers though, they're pretty fun...and biker nobs are much much scarier...at least that is the rumor.
(ooh but your going for 1750, so that means you can take 4 biker nobz and still have points to spend, so...they might look something like...)
4 nobz+warbikes nob with pk and bosspole nob with pk nob with big choppa nob with big choppa+kombi skorcha
total 250
or you could take 15 commandos+burna+snikrot

I think I'll go with Snikt and his merry band of crazies. Will just take me a month or two to get the fundings for him and the Kommandos. (They are what, 30 for 5? So I'll need about 70 dollars more) Oiy, now you say 15. lol
You know, if you wanted to be really mean to a gun line army....you could put Ghaz with Snikt and the Kommandos and have him come in on their table edge. Lol.

I don't know. I have to disagree. It is not outflanking. Sknits rule is different.
It is called Ambush and reads as follows- Snikrot and his unit may be held in Reserve. When Snikrot and his unit become available from Reserve, they may move on from any table edge.
I'd say adding Ghaz to them is completely Legal. =) Heck, you could even throw in Mad Doc Grotsnik and destroy people's dreams!

I never really thought of it like that, I suppose it does make sense...
but then you have Ghaz's mega armor...which makes him pretty slow on foot, treating all ground as difficult terrain I think.

True, but he can Waaagh the turn he comes in. And assault 6. I'm not saying its the best idea, but against Tau or an IG gunline...it could be fun! =P
And come to think of it, adding the Mad Doc MIGHT not be a bad idea. Give your Kommandos and Snikt Feel no Pain.

That's a lot of points in one place...
Excellent.

the mad doc makes you drop the Mek though, but he would make your kommandos much deadlier
and Envoy has a point about a lot of points being crammed into one place...

15 is alot of money...I may just go 10. =P
Can I use my Burna Boyz or does it HAVE to be a Kommando with a Burna?

Again, I have very elite, whiny people to play with. They expect the real thing on the table. They sap much joy out of the game and not for just this reason. =(
