Drop all the grots. Literally no reason to take them unless using them in min units as a tax to unlock more CADs. Orks are better in every single way. Also, unless running them in transports with MANz, drop the mega armour on both the boss and the mek. I'm assuming you plan on joining them to the boyz mobs, and if that's the case, their mega armour will prevent the unit from running thanks to SAP.

Additionally, I don't like how those Nobz are armed. Nobz are a melee pain train, and that loudout doesn't capitalize on that at all. If you want shooty nobz, look at flash gits. My vote is that you give those nobz one or two powerklaws, and fill out the rest with Big Choppas. Then they become a truly horrifying melee unit, especially if accompanied by the boss and a KFF mek. It'll be tough if you plan on footslogging them, but to each their own.

Maybe investing in a truck for them would be a wise move. Spend the points that you get back from ditching the anklebiters to get a unit or two of truckboyz, complete with pole/klaw nobs. Then you'll have 3 trucks zoom the 24" no mans land on turn one, and hopefully their scariness will distract your enemy from your footslogging boyz for a turn or two, letting you get in a mean one-two punch, so to speak.

First of all, I don't understand how you Shootas squads may cost 164pts when my math gives me:
20x 7pts Shootas = 140pts
2x 5pts Big shootas = 10pts
1x 10pts Nob = 10pts
1x 25pts PK = 25pts
1x 10pts BP = 5pts
TOTAL = 190pts

Then, the Mega Armor on both HQ seems useless. No MANZ, nor transport. I don't get it.

In your army configuration, the gretchins are useless.

The Nobz should not be played like this, but 1) with PK or 2) MANZ or 3) Flashgitz, all in a transport and/or with Painboy.
But if you give them a transport, you should do thhem same for some of your Boyz as well, otherwise your only transport will be blown up to fast.

The Deffkoptas are ok, even if I like to field them with buzzsaw, for AT.

Aww, i must of made some mistakes in the adding for the shoota boys . Well knowing this i guess i'm going full foot slogga as it i don't have the points for the trukks. After changing my list i came up with this

Lose the nobz.
Either add nob bikers or truks. This list is waaaaaay too slow.

One of the really big reason i'm going foot sloogin is the main person i play uses necrons and lots of anti tank, hell at a 500 pts game he had a Monolith lucky i got lucky with some mega-nobs and killed so i plan on going heavy foot slooga then add the vehicle like grot tank at a higher point limit

Well, imo it's a fair footslogging army. Maybe he can convert the Nobz in more Boyz for the 3 mobs he got, just to soak up more damages.

lose the grots, give the big mek the kff from the ghaz supplement
