Hi guys, i finally got done buying CSM stuff at least until the new DP and latter the new codex comes out. So i decided to move on to my next army, IG, which i'm almost at my 2k points goal, just missing a few purchases, and my next goal is a 2k ork army, since i've already got the ork minis from black reach, so i was thinking if i should buy the new megaforce, i think i lack a lot of boyz, but i'm not sure, black reach got 1 warboss, 20 boyz, 5 nobz and 3 deff koptas, spending 200 dlls on the megaforce i would hope to get my army list to 1500 maybe, i don't have the codex atm, a friend of mine those, but seeing him deploy his 2000 army i see lots and lots of boyz, so having 60 boyz for 2000 seems too lil. So should i buy it? or focus on buying lots and lots of boyz, i'm still deciding which flavor to give them, any suggestion?

IF the box has the same sprues that would come with the separate boxes of the listed stuff and you will not throw away the warbikers, it is worth it. If you do not want the warbikers, get the stuff separately. You deffinetly cannot have too many boyz, especially if you only have 60 now. And lootas are deffinetly worth the cost. Oh, right you also need to consider if you need the trukk, since if you get it, youre stuck with it. One is not enough to field since it will be blown up the first thing to reduce the fast incoming threat, so you will have to get more.

The best bet would be to proxy some games and see what you want to play with.

Yah,if i bought that i would probably put 3 trukks on my list, i actually think the one that comes in the box is a battlewagon. Thinking on which flavor to go i was starting to think maybe using wazdaka and go full bikes and deffkoptas, however my black reach set would be useless for that, only being able to use the deffkoptas.

It is a trukk, not a battle wagon.

Nob bikers are obscenely powerful thanks to wound allocation. No matter how you play, you can't go wrong with a squad or two.

Generally, the more stuff GW puts in a box, the better a deal it is.

I'm also building a speedy, highly mobile army and you don't need too many Ork boyz.

60 Boyz already fills 5 trukks. Will you need more in a speedfreak army? I don't think so.
