Hey all,
I have no clue what I want to play for Crusade so I put up a Poll with a little tag line for each possible boss. You can pick up to 3 so let me know what you want to see on the table top near you. Have some fun with it.

Can I pick Snikrot three times? Still the best Ork, most underrated Ork imo. And the sneakiest.

Ya, he does seem cool and I have never put him on the table but maybe I can work him in. I'm working on keeping to a theme but with grots winning right now there are only so many units that aren't mek guns that are grots! Ill see how it shakes out.

If you end up going Tau for some reason, you should 100% do The Eight. I had an absolute blast playing the Eld-vengers a couple years back at Great Crusade.
You know what they say about "If it's stupid but it works..."

You know what they say about "If it's stupid but it works..." ...then it's still stupid, and you just got lucky.

Hey just going to bump this back up to new if any one missed voting, It look like the grots are leading the pack but I'm going to declare a winner on April 1st to give me enough time to get stuff together.

Got yourself a Red Gobbo to include in there, too?

So it looks like the people have spoken and the Grots are leading the charge when we get into the crusade - Makari the luckiest grot shall be warlord and I'll see mostly grot list I can pull together.

Ok that did not take long to find a HUGE oversight in this plan, Makari is Klan locked to Goffs unless Ghaz is also in the detachment, unlike Ghaz who isn't locked in any way...so that's going to be an issues.

Do you think Ghaz would let Makrai be in charge? lol

Do you think Ghaz would let Makrai be in charge? lol Ya that's the issue, I'm running into. The best I have is that the story is being told by Makari and he might be exaggerating the story a little. The only way that I can see to make Makari work is to bring Ghaz or I'm going to have to pay some CP to have him in a goff patrol and run a non-goff battalion. Weirdly Ghaz does not have a rule that says if he is included that he HAS to be your warlord, I'm assuming that will be in there when he becomes a supreme commander.

yeah it's probably one of those "Makari thinks he's in charge" scenarios... or he's at least telling all the grots he's in charge!

Ok here is the first attempt at the Grot forces (save one) that might be a mid table list and might work.
Battalion - Grot Mob all <Gretchin> models get 6++ and all <gretchin> vehicles re-roll 1s
HQ's
1 Makari - Warlord Kunning and Brutal re-deploy him + d3 units 1 Ghazghkull
20 Grots - blasters 10 Grots - blasters 10 Grots - blasters 10 Grots - blasters
1 Grot Mega Tank - 5x Kustom mega blasters 1 Grot Mega Tank - 5x custom mega blasters
6 Killa kans - 3x big shoot, 3x rokkit launcha 6x Buzz saws 2 Mek guns - 2x Kustom mega kannon 3 Mek guns - 3x smasha guns
So its 1500 pts on the nose. So everything has a 6++ save and Ghaz has his 4++. All my heavy hitters get re-roll 1s IN ALL PHASES!!!( shooting is all that matters)
The grots will fill space, screen and objective actions where they can. the 20 man isn't a bad tarpit vs non dedicated CC or tau.
I have 2 Grot Mega tanks (battle wagons are same size) that will provide a good chunk of anti elite/monster/vehicle, with a good jack of all trades kan unit that isn't too shabby in any phase. they give me some mobility and staying power. Always strong back field of mek guns to kill anything that is foolish enough to give LoS and more good anti elite and Mon/Veh shooting.
Obviously Ghaz is my beat stick that just forces people to do something or get squished (also only non-grot)
