==== Da Jump Specifics ==== *30 Boyz are brutal, Da Jump is awesome - 9" away from the enemy is big. Put a Weirdboy near a unit of 30 boyz to give him +3, his maximum bonus. You've got a chance of exceeding 12 and getting Perils, but the Weirdboy has 4W and consequently the first Perils of the Warp can't make him explode (and the power still works if you don't die). Enjoy the look on your opponent's face when you place 30 Boyz 9" from him. Then you can charge turn 1 and drown them in bodies before they even shoot once. 'Ere We Go gives you a reasonable (but not guaranteed) chance to get in. They will be without various auras like Ghazz +1A or +1 to hit from a Banner, but around 120A will make a dent in almost anything and force the enemy to concentrate [[DISTRACTION CARNIFEX|EVERYTHING]] on this unit regardless of what else is coming. * This tactic can be used to assassinate key characters (if your opponent didn't bubblewrap them enough), destroy or tie up key enemy positions, and so on. And if the enemy did castle up? Good for you, as with proper placing and 3" pile in you can tie up additional units without risk of Overwatch (bear in mind they will be able to hit you in that first turn only, but if you survive they are deprived of their shooting unless they have {{W40kKeyword|FLY}}). On top of all that, getting rid of 30 Boyz is no small task. Don't forget that you can use this tactic to objective grab. * If Boyz are teleported in front of the enemy it is rather easy to conga-line them into reach of support characters. Particularly a WAAAGH!!! Banner, Ghaz, and/or Painboy, although you'll lose the attacks from the Boyz in the conga line. * "Mob Up" doesn't place a cap on how big a unit can become. Theoretically, you could create one giant mob (40, 50, 60+) from a bunch of smaller mobs and drop it in behind enemy lines, assuming that time and CP reserves permit it (or you're just using open play). Not amazing, but worthwhile in the late game when most of your opponent's units are crippled, as they probably won't hold up well against a literal green tide of Choppa attacks charging down their rears. (Additional note: this is a great way of denying kill points for a variety of missions) * Downside: most players will assume that you intend to launch this trick and will try to force you teleporting into unpleasant positions. And most players are aware that they should not allow you getting 30+ boys in their faces.
