	Lootas are a very popular choice for Ork players, especially in 8th Edition, and ''especially'' in Bad Moon or Deathskull armies. They have some of the longest ranged dakka in the Ork codex and they can reliably wound almost anything with their S7 Deffguns. The Deffguns are Heavy d3; roll a d3 for the entire mob, and that's how many shots each Loota in the mob gets. This means that a full-strength mob of 15 Lootas can potentially vomit out 45 S7 shots at 48" range with -1 AP and 2 wounds each, which is absolutely insane. On the downside, Lootas are not optimized for melee, they are rather expensive, and they are also somewhat fragile, having the same profile as a regular Ork Boy. This means that screening them with [[Gretchin]] is absolutely mandatory. You also have the option of replacing up to one in every five Lootas with a Spanner.

	Previously, there was little benefit to including a Spanner with a Loota mob, but this has changed with the release of Prophecy of the Wolf. Now if you take a Spanner, you can apply the Klever Spanner stratagem for 1 CP if the mob is a total of 9 models or less, or 2 CP if the mob has 10 models or more. As long as the Spanner is alive, you can now roll two dice when determining the number of shots your Lootas (or [[Burna Boyz]], incidentally) can take, and choose the best result. This is much more CP-efficient and reliable compared to burning CP to fix low dice rolls for shot output. Don't forget that the Spanner can also perform minor repair work, so try to position him next to your other back-field support vehicles like [[Mek Gunz]].

	Lootas are already a force to be reckoned with, but try taking them as Bad Moons, then buff them with the ''More Dakka!'' and ''Showin' Off'' Stratagems. Not only do they reroll 1's, but 5's and 6's auto-hit while also generating additional hits (which ''also'' reroll 1's and auto-hit on 5 or 6). Then, after the first salvo, they get to fire ''AGAIN''. A full-strength mob has the ability to fire up to NINETY shots in this manner. When so buffed Lootas become truly terrifying, albeit very CP-hungry.
