Why are Grots so OP?
I can have a squad of 30 of them (good luck taking any objectives from me) and if there's more than 20 of them they get plus one on their hits. Also for 30 of them I only spend 90 points.
In a 2000 points game you can run 500 of them for 1500 points then use the other 500 for heavy support.
Sure they wound mostly everything on a 5+ or a 6+ but with 30 shots from them at least 2 or 3 wounds are slipping through.

Git gud.

On average 100 grots, costing 300 points, in blobs of 20+, kill in one turn:
22 guardsmen
7.4 space marines
1.8 terminators
0.23 land raiders
They're great anti-horde, and excellent at objective holding and deepstrike denial, but they're hardly generalists. They can kill light infantry and only light infantry. You should always be taking some in an ork army, but spamming them isn't a great idea.

What if I add the grot tanks too?

What's the range of their gun? Isn't it 12"? Sure, 100 grots will kill a decent amount, but math-hammer in this case is always implying perfect conditions when it's rarely the case.

Grot tanks are actually bloody amazing. They are the most efficient rokkit delivery system we have, and are actually quite tough to boot. They are unreliable, 24" rokkits with 2d6 movement (3d6 advancing), but they're our best ranged anti-bigthing after lootas, and they're better at killing T8.

How many points are they?

Pic related. 30 points base, 42 with rokkit launcha and shoota (shoota is free), and the kaptin can take 2 rokkit launchas, making him 54 pts. 42 ppm for a bs4+ rokkit is pretty efficient, and the kaptin is a steal.

180 points for 5 rocket shots and 8 shoota shots sounds great.

>100 grots can kill 7 space marines
That's pretty damn embarrassing for the space marines who died like bitches to angry small children.

Anyone who stands in the face of 500 greenskins while getting pelted by 100 shots has my respect
