My suggestion is that you do what I did (and suspect many players on
this list have done) is play two or three games with unpainted figures.
Or , horrors of horrors, with just unpainted card board cut up to
represent the base size of each unit and write on the card board what
the unit is. This way you can try various combinations and see which work
best, before you have paint them in their particular detachments colours.

I deleted you mail without looking at it, basically because the list gets
dozens of people asking what they should buy. I am a bit grumpy I guess,
but I figure if I can work out what I need in my army by myself, why can't
others. my suggestion is that you do the adove, play a few games find out
what works for your style of play then by it, or if you know someone who
already has an Ork army, borrow some of their figures for a couple of
games.
> How to organise this list into detachments that are effective?
As above. I mostly figured out which detachment combinations are
effective by doing some simple maths before even playing a game.
I then played some games to make sure my theories were correct
