So veterans of the long waagh! I was wondering if you could help me by taking a look at what I have here and helping me build a list from it. What should I add?

Warboss from assault on black reach set
About 45 or so Slugga boyz
5 burna boyz and a mek
8 lootas and a mek
3 deffakoptas with missiles
8 nobs with choppas
about 20 or so gretchin and two of those ork herder lads.
a lobba, a zapp gun and a kannon (mek guns)
a trukk
a battlewagon
and a converted imperial guard bassalisk without the gun that I can use as a vehicle of some sort!

8 lootas with mek with missile launcher and trukk

MEk Gunz: Kannon lobba and zzap gun 59pts

Its a decent start given your mix of models which is a boon in this edition. I would save the points on the bosses cybork body, split the deffkoptas into 3 squads of 1, also given your lack of trukks I would also be more tempted to put the lootas in cover somewhere with decent line of sight and good range and put the burnas in the trukk (they need to get up close and personal) also I would just use all 3 mek guns as lobbas till you get more. a lone kannon and lone zzap gun wont do much but theres a good chance you can make use of the barrage effect from 3 lobbas. also if you can find the points after some of these changes I would advise a Klaw on the squad of boys that the warboss is not in. its fine for the squad hes with because hes there to soak a challenge for the boss as our bosses are not as scary as they once were with so much out there to gibb us before we even get to attack.

Also as for future purchases I would advise a biker boss or zhadsnark and some bikers, they are top score this edition and work great in the games I been playin.
