[Epic] How to deal with artillery

Fellow Epic players,
        My usual opponent plays a force consisting of a space
marine/Imperial Guard Mix. He basically uses the tanks and infantry of
marines with the artillery and leviathan of the guard. He has taken an
artillery company to count as his IG company which makes the force legal
(I think- We don't have a copy of Armies of the Imperium). I play an
Orcish Horde and am having a lot of trouble dealing with his artillery.
It seems that dragsta shields are the only chance that I have of even
hoping to avoid having all of my units blown up but I don't want to be
cheesy by taking a ton of them. Does anyone have some strategies for
dealing with artillery? I usually try to rush him which works with mixed
sucess. My force has Goffs and a Kult to charge, Death Skulls with Land
Raiders to Advance, and Bad Moonz with braincrushas and weirdboys to fire
from a distance (this is usually his primary target).

                                        Sincerely,
                                                Adam Blitzer
