This might be nasty, but blast markers could screw them up.

--------> 20 pulsa rokkits alone are devastating. Nobz are only scary if
they make it into HTH. 10 Stompas sdon't scare me that much as they
aren't THAT tough...

---------> 30 LR's in one force is pretty heavy. Every BM knocks down
one AT shot, but you do have 60 of them. Awful lot of points, though.
Put this force against the Ork force above (with equal points) and
you've got an interesting fight...
