Suggestions:
Ditch the KMB on the Mek, its not worth the cost.
Give your nobz Eavy armor, ditch the Kombi rokkitz for either kombi skorcha or for regular weapons, 2 one shot rokkitz hitting on 5s = not worth the points and loss of 1 CC attack.

My personal preference is to not put heavy weapons in boyz squads except big shootas and only then if they are going to be objective holders. Not worth investing the points otherwise. on your looted wagon equip big shootas not rokkitz. if you fire the main gun everything else is going to be snap firing and you wont hit anything with the rokkits where as with the Big shootas you have 6 shots so statistically at least 1 should hit each turn.

You just solved my conundrum with the 'Eavy armour as I had been wanting to include it on the Nobz but couldn't figure out where to make the cuts!

I like the advice on the Big Shootas on the tank as I hadn't considered that!

I think the only reason there are combi-rokkits and boyz with rokkits is because I just like... rokkits. But you make a very good point. I'll modify the list when I'm not at work.

Thank you for the advice, it was very good!

**Ghazkuul**

Not a problem, in fact I am turning all of my Rokkit boyz into a Tank Busta squad.

**BossMakk**

Dont put your warboss with slogging nobz. Too juicy a target, its gonna draw all enemy fire.

If you can, you should really try to find points to make those boy squads a full 30 boys.

My only major concern would be that for a walking list, it feels like there arent enough boys on the field.

**Wulfmar**

The original list.

Spoiler:

Modified list with advice

Spoiler:

The only bit I've not tweaked are the two combi-rokkits for 5pts each in the Nob squad as the models have them already built on and I don't have the heart to cut the rokkits off.

thats fine man, just tell your opponent that your Kombi rokkitz are just regular CCW. So long as he is ok with it then no problem.

Mek has to be attached to a squad. So unless a squad is going inside the tank with him, he isn't doing much chuckling.

I suppose he could be attached to the x10 strong Boyz squad and inserted into the Looted Wagon? If I remember correctly the transport is 12? Alternatively the spare gretchin could sit inside the tank with him I guess - I've heard they like rusty vehicles.
