Also I could use some advice on making the battlewagon. Would I be able to make it from the following?

Trukk (for base and gunz)
Warbuggy (for roof and gunz)
2 lobbas ( to make killkannon)

Thanks in advance!

Bigger units is my tip drop your meganobz and getmore boyz. How strange it sounds shooting is a very good thing for orks so more shooting.

How about this one then? 20 more boyz and a warbiker squad

Those 10 slugga boys will die instantly when they get out of the trukk just skip them and take more lootas

You don't need all those weapons on the Battlewagon, it cannot fire all of them even if it doesn't move. If you want another gun that you can fire, drop the big shootas and rokkits and get a kannon.

For my old(sadly lost) battlewagon I used a SM Landraider for the starting point,then added lots of gubbins(glyphs,armor etc) then added a zzap gun(3rd ed.).
It was a bit pricey but the overall result rocked.

A Zzap gun, hmm? That's also an option instead of the kannon. Zzap guns are now auto-hit.

Auto hit?? what do mean by that?

The 5th edition rulebook says that Zzap Guns do not roll to hit when attacking.

Codex over rides rulebook. It was a typo.

I like the lists but i think with the second list that you should drop the 10 boyz and get two squads of gretchen, yes they are weak but are the only orks with bs 3 and your opponent will ignore them until it's too late. i liked the first list too but you spend too man y points on the battlewagon for your meganobs, but i liked it anyway

You should get some plasticard to flesh out your Battlewagon. Make it a bit bigger than a Trukk, but you can still use the Trukk's wheels. A Big Mek was not satisfied with his Trukk and made it bigger. There you go.
