Gack.
 not only was 80% of all ork wagons= battle wagon

us greenskins ended up with the WORST War Engines in E40k

slow 85 pt targets armed with FP. worthless for shooting
at armor. Oh Boy! I put 1 BM on that group of eldar WE.

they used to have great armor, now...well, its not so good in E40k


enough bitching for now.

against eldar, the best thing i have found is a kult of speed
with 10 bikes, and 6 deth ray speedstas.

take 2 detachment like this, plus a detachment of boarboyz.

the boarboyz will help against the aspect warriors that will
chew up those KoS bikes.

the lack of long range AT shots hurt the orks in a big way.
