I think this list will be able to do quite well really, if I can fly the 3 Dakka Jets behind the KFF on turn one, then turn 2 since I should get a charge by then with Ghaz's WAAAGH, go back 12" and unleash 18 S6 Shots each, not even including the lootas, that should therefore open up enough for the boyz and ghaz to go to town on.

Thoughts?

Need Big shootas on the BWs, for weapon destroyed result. Should do decent, not a huge fan of Lootas but you are missing range AT, with the Lootas only S7 and Jets S6 if someone plops down a Land Raider, or a few Leman Russes you will struggle getting rid of them.

I could either:
A.) Drop some boys for Big Shootas
B.) Drop both Lootas down to 7.

And yes I completely agree, but think about it, if its a Land Raider, most likely its coming to unload its precious cargo in my lines, so my Deff Rollas will hit them with S10, if its a LR it will either be not doing a lot of damage because of S8 or be close enough to where I could reach it with at least 1 Deff Rolla since its 24" Range (Yes I know they cant turbo boost )

Dropping one Loota gets you 3 Bshootas. Just need 5 points for the 4th Wagon.

I am not sure about your choice to take Ghaz. He is quit expensive for little return. IMHO. Just buy a Boss in Megarmor, half the price and still get those Manz as troops.

The main reason I took Ghaz was because I like his model, yes I know I could do a counts as but I'd rather just use him. Also his WAAGH is nice.

I agree, but not realkkly needed in a Mech list. You are using the Vehicle to mitigate the lack of moving. So his Waagh is realy pointless to some extent.

You could still use the model as a Regular warboss. There really not much difference. IMHO. Especially since they don't have a suitable model for Boss in Megarmor.

Drop to a basic MA Boss and see if you can expand into a trio of Lootas to expand your targeting ability. Shooting three units being more optimal than two and 7 Lootas is typically plenty. No riggers on the Wagons? Being open-topped, I would worry about that more than a Stunned result.

Also, glad to see someone jumping on the KFF jets. Thought of this myself and it seems really disgusting.
