I also wanna work in a jet or 2 down the road yet but dont know the rules for them right now

i think boomguns are amazin and fun but not greatly competitive sadly.
idk about the kommandos and snik they dont seem to fit ur comp to well as you are footsloggin. same with the warbikes warbikes can kommandos are good in speed freak lists. id drop the warbikes and the kommandos all together giving you
215pts from the kommandos and 165pts from the bikes so 480 in total
i would add 5 lootas and split each squad into x5 models per squad filling your elites slots up. this allows you to split your fire and maybe get more shots
405pts left fill your squads of 20boyz up to 30per squad
and you should drop the warboss for another bigmek with a KFF
and you can fill in 2 dakkajets with extra supa shootas!
if you would like the dakkajet rules you can google img the white dwarf release of them as they are not in the Ork codex yet.
so lets see what you got after all that.

I did not even see the rokkets o dear! lets get rid of those for some big shootas!
Rokkits are bad cus they are SO easy to miss only being 1 shot! you got anti tank with your lootas/kannons.

a nice trick with the KFF is you can have 1 model in the KFF range and your WHOLE squad will get the 5+ cover!
also you can put your lootas in runes and when you get shot at you can GTG and get a 2+ save but have to snapfire next turn. thats ok cus you will save your men and will be snapfireing at flyers anyway!
tell me if you agree with me/like my ideas!
just trying to help not make you feel bad cus you cant use some of your models.

i think im digging your list i just gotta look up the rules for the jets now, and the rokkits i thought would b good this one cause of snap fire so i could always shoot them and heard some people saying they where better now but like i said im still pretty noobish lol but thanks 4 the tips yo i think im gonna make a new list like this but with just a couple lil tweaks 4 my play style but its gonna b mostly like the one you made

ight sounds good the rokkits are "better" in 6th ed cus they can snapfire as to in 5th they couldnt. but big shootas are just way better cus they dont have to snapfire and they are 3 shots each!
the dakkajet rules are online i bet you could find them somewhere they are great and strong. read up on all the rules first there are some good ones! never use burnabommas always dakkajets!

got it yo, and thanks 4 the tips
