What's your plan of attack with the ADL?

okay not to bad .I would Drop the ADL and the Quad and the KFF mek for a second Shock attack Gun and the rest in groups of Grotz to be walking walls of cover ..(uyea they will die but then the boyz get thru ) and two SAGs makes for some nice pie plates ...

Provide cover for the lootas possibly even the SAG.

I could do that the Quad Gun is to help with fliers as well as the cover for lootas from the ADL. So if I dropped the KFF I would need to grab up an extra 29 strong gretchin unit at 107 for the cover save (though it is debatable on which is better sure the KFF does it cheaper but you are also getting a unit that can shoot, can fight, albeit poorly, and hold objectives), a 2nd investment of 19ish grots to bubble wrap the SAGs.

I think maybe you should consider getting 2 battlewagons and putting 20 boys in each one of them. KFF in a battlewagon will give a cover save to the 2 battlewagons and possibly the warbikes. Swap the 3rd group of boyz for a group of 15 stormboyz. They will work wonders with the warbikes and make a great vanguard. they have something like 4 or 5 attacks on the charge and combined with the warbikes is a very fearsome sight.
A second shokk attack gun is a good idea but I dont know about the points cost. Might be a bit difficult to squeeze it in.

I do think you should keep the ADL. Lootas need cover as there are only 10 of them in a group and can fail a leadership test easily if your opponent fires at them with a whirlwind or something with pie plates. Fliers are going to be a worry as everyone will either buy them and use them in every game or spend all their points trying to fight them so an ADL will prevent the worst.

overall a pretty solid list and should be pretty fun to play. SAGs are so funny when you roll 2 sixes over 10 assault terminators.
or you could just get about 500 grots for your list and swamp everyone.

i'd go with 4 sag big meks! sure theres a decent chance you might blow half your army up in one turn, but hey either way you'll have fun doing it.

And I just noticed this; but are you doing double force org? Reason I ask is because I realized that you're running 4 HQ choices here: 1 Wierdboy, 2 Big Meks, and a Warboss. You're probably going to have to drop two of them for your game.

Drop the ADL
drop the big mek with the SAG
Drop the boys down to 20
drop the big choppas from the nob bikers
Drop the eavy armor from the warboss, his bike gives a 4+ armor save
Drop the gretchin
Drop the bp on the nob bikers
Drop the warphead

Add a third group of lootas
Add a bp to the warboss
Add battlewagons to make your boyz mobile
Make one of the mobs 19 strong to let the big mek roll with them and provide the KFF bubble to the othwr battlewagons
