I don't intend to win tournaments with that, but neither do I want it to be a pushover army that gets its a** handed to it every time. What would you suggest?

You are fine.

I have no idea about your HQ and I am not sure the list will suit my style but I like your list.

Thanks for the answer.

Zhadsnark is essentialy a Warboss on a warbike - the stats are the same - allowing Warbikers to be taken as Troops. He has a Power Klaw that strikes at his initiative (5 attacks S10 at I5? hell yeah) but only has a 6+ armour save. He can also perform tank shock with his bike instead of assaulting if he wants to. And he costs exactly the same as 6 Warbikers so I think it's a pretty balanced character (hits like a ton of bricks but won't live long if used without caution).
