[b]Edit!
off field (In various states of completeness) I currently have the following units available to swap in, if they could provide an improvement.

30 ish grots ( some unbuilt)
20 ish boyz mostly choppa slugga
5x boyz Big shoota
5 x burna boyz
9 x lootas plus 1 spanna
10x kitbashed tank bustas
10x Nobz with most weapon options plus maybe a few more i could cobble together
1 x painboy
1 x kit bashed nob with Waaagh Banna
3 x deff koptas
3 x killa kans with various weapon options
1x battlewagon with deff roller and gun options
1x trukk ready to go and 1 x rhino to convert to trukk at some point
1 x wazbom blastjet BNIB.... I plan to make this a burna bomer , but may try to magnatize it to give me all the different aircraft options

I'm no expert, but here are my thoughts.

1) Not enough boyz for goffs. Make the 20 squad 30. Get rid of the shootas (goffs especially suck at shooting).
2) Get rid of warboss and 1 KFF and substitute for Big Mek w/ Mega Armor w/ follow me ladz and killa klaw. Can use da kleverest boss even w/ Ghaz in army. I'm assuming you have one or can make one because you have 10 MANz in this list.
3) Make meganobz all double killies.
4) You'll have to get rid of some stuff to make this happen as its a few extra points. You could get rid of a couple mek gunz. Or get rid of 1 squad of MANz, add a couple units of kommandos, or switch 2nd detachment to a patrol and add a squad of 10 grots for additional obsec.
5) 6 smashas don't seem worth the 3CP for the spearhead detachment. Don't even really seem worth the 2CP for a patrol. Most people running a 2nd detachment have 12 or 18. It's gonna be hard to get all 6 inside of a KFF too. Personally I'd just run them in your primary detachment, run Ghaz, Big Mek w/ MA, weirdboy as your HQs and let the smashas do work without concern of repairing/protecting them. If they are focusing on your smashas then they aren't focused on your boyz who are the strength of your army. All the games i've watched recently, 3 kommando units seem auto-take now.

TYVM for your post Zoltan.

I like a lot of what you have said.
I'm going to have a little play about on battlescribe and see how I can implement some of the things you have said.
will update soon.

Ok, manage to get most the changes in and stay @ 2000pts
Cant justify droping 2 mek guns or 2 Meganobs fot the extra 10 boyz. I use the smaller squad to sit on the back objective ans screen for deepstrikes so 20 will have to do.

Any further adjustments or ideas would be greatly appriciated.
