How many droppods does it take to have an effective army at 2000 points?

That's not a joke by the way just I have 5 at the moment on account of Wayland Games sending me too many

5 is a start. It depends on what you are putting into them and what you are putting onto the table. When I use a drop pod force, 5 is what I usually base it around.

An all drop pod army is either very difficult to beat or very easy to beat IF you know how to do it. In 4th edition it was a very solid build, in 5th less so.

Drop pod armies lack mobility, so against more mobile armies they can lose by not being able to cover all the objectives.
