I could replace the Weirdboy and Dakkajets with two squads of 10 Lootas.
What do you think? What could make this list better?

I find the weirdboy dakkajet combo really underwhelming. Someone did the math on it as well and proved how lame it was.

Ditch them, giving yourself 320pts if I've got that right. Use those points to take a PK and perhaps cybork on the Big Mek, perhaps a Warboss or Megaboss to add to the punch of the vehicles, and then spend the rest on not just Lootas but Kannons as well. You can get 3 kannons for the price of 4 lootas, and BS3 S8 or S4 small blasts aren't something to look down on

That would make your army stronger. But if you like Jets, just roll with those instead, these are probably the only fliers I've seen in the game that actually improved the 40k experience.

How about this?

I would drop 4 lootas to get 3 kannons. Personally I never go above 10 lootas because gtg in area terrain ruins or really any terrain greatly improves their survivability and you cannot do that while fearless.

Friendly Game Run with it see what happens ..Win lose or draw friendly games are supposed to be fun.. which is good reason to take a warpead as they are fun ...not competative just fun ..

I have never had fun with my Warphead, he just does stupid stuff and dies. The SAG is the way to have fun with shenanigans IMO

OP, second list is considerably stronger. I'd suggest dropping 3 Lootas and running two units of five. Use the 45 points to get any mixture of Kannons, Lobbas (both in solo units) or PK for Big Mek.

Don't underestimate that Mek Klaw. He's every bit as killy as a Nob, why miss out on that crucial hitting power?

did you have a bad time as a kid with weirdboyz lol! did he touch you D=??? jk!!
weirdboyz are fun but zog is the way to go!! if you pull it off its just gg!

I usually have lots of fun with my Warphead I would like to know how that list did. If it were me I'd have at least one of those mobs as shootas.... Good luck!
