Hello fellow Orks, got a battle coming up next week or so against an Eldar player. It's a 500 point game, this is the scenario:
Round 1: Hide and Seek
Point level: 500
Scenario: Dawn of War, The Scouring
Terrain: Temperate Wilderness
I'm expecting the other player to take a formation like this based on a battle he played against Wyddr a few months ago:
Autarch w/Hawk Wings, Lasblaster, Warlord (Ambush of Blades)
6 Swooping Hawks w/Exarch
5 Warp Spiders
10 Guardians w/Scatter Laser
10 Guardians w/Scatter Laser
I'm thinking of taking something like this:
Warboss w/ 'Eavy Armour, Boss Pole, Shoota, Big Choppa, Da Finkin' Kap
10 Shoota Boyz w/ Big Shoota
10 Shoota Boyz w/ Big Shoota, Boss Nob, Boss Pole, Big Choppa
10 Shoota Boyz w/ Big Shoota, Boss Nob, Boss Pole, Big Choppa
5 Loobas w/ 3 Ammo Runts
Deffkopta w/ TL Big Shoota
Deffkopta w/ TL Big Shoota
I figure more smaller groups will mean that he won't be able to attack all my units, the loobas can stay out of sight and barrage his infantry, and the deffkoptas can provide harassment on the flanks and late game objective grabbing. Any thoughts, suggestions or comments?
