So my plan here is to jump the shoota boy mob first depending on the mission and where my opponent deploys so they can make the most of shooting one enemy unit whilst charging another. Ghazzy keeps the boyz in line and with his resilience is unlikely to give up Slay the Warlord easily. The Weirdboyz also buff and cast smite accordingly with reliable if potentially deadly results with all the boyz around. The ranged anti-infantry comes from the dakkajet which stays mobile and makes sure I can reach people out of range and line of sight of my boyz while the KMK give some backfield presence and shooting against vehicles/heavy infantry. Does this list look decent? I normally face against Necrons, Harlequins and Daemons of Slaanesh for foes, and I'm trying to keep my key characters from being overwhelmed, particularly Harlequins who can drive by with fusion pistols and ignore a lot of intervening terrain/models that would otherwise stop others.

Is the Nob with WAAAGH! Banner worth it? Would it be better to take a Painboy? Should I drop the Dakkajet for more Mek Gunz or Lootas? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I prefer the painboy (grotsnik is even better) over the banner nob to be honest, especially if you don't have the KFF bubble. But the banner nob is a solid option too.

I second Grotsnik. He's REALLY good around your high point units.
Nice list. Lots of the boyz, 8th is the battle of the zergs.

Dakkajet is a solid Choice however since you are going with a themed footslog list I would suggest Dropping the Megakannonz and the Dakkajet for Lootas as they fit your Theme better..and lootas can almost always find a spot of terrain to set up in ....it will also have the effect of taking away the anti tank targetz for your opponet as those three are the only viable AT targets you have .a painboy or two would help this list a lot and keep your weird boyz alive to get the troops out

Also i would ditch the PK's on the Nobz for Big Choppas as the damage is more reliable and hitting is more reliable on them..

I know the consensus for PK's being meh this edition is fairly on point, but given that I don't have an abundance of anti-vehicle in this list, and I'm using PL so the cost of PK's aren't an issue, would it not be better to use Klaws simply for the better AP and strength? Against the harlequin transports I wound them on 2's and soul grinders on 3's rather than 4's. The hitting issue is partly mitigated by the presence of the WAAAGH! Banner.

Is the 6+ FNP worth compared to the increased damage output from the WAAAGH! Banner? The Painboy has to be closer aura wise to help them out and I've heard middling things about his effectiveness. I'm considering Grotsnik but I'd have to drop some things in order to fit him since he's at least 7 PL.

Also, the only reason why I'm hesitant to go for Lootas is from how expensive they are compared to mek guns.

Thanks for the feedback so far. I'll be posting a revised list shortly.

You need at least one painboy to keep the weird boyz up..keeping the Pk's is fine ..oh and its not the FNP thats so great its the keeping ghaz and weidboyz on thier feet docs tools are great
