The warboss and big mek ride in a central battlewagon with the 'ard boyz. The other two battlewagons have the shoota boyz. And the Kommandoz, of course, just do their thing.

I'd go PKs all around on the Nobz but maybe that's just me
those Shoota boyz are likely gunna get stuck in the thick of it eventually and a PK in every squad gives them a good chance of taking apart anybody.
I'd drop some kannons to make some extra points...I've never had any luck with kannons and those wagons wanna be moving anyway...and then maybe some riggers, red paint, or rams to get those claws in there.
Anyway, I'm glad you've gone Blood Axez, I'd have done it myself if I hadn't painted half my Orks black and red(which just so happens to be the old 1st ed color scheme for Goffs) before I learned anything about the klanz.

The point of the Kannonz is to be able to fire both a big shoota and the kannon at the same time-- the Kannon counts as a defensive weapon when you fire its frag round.
All the battlewagons already have riggers, red paint, and rams.
I don't think shootaboy nobz can even have power klaws.

What are you making the Wagons out of?

Dunno yet, I just built the list for list building purposes.

Blood Axez needs looted/purchased Imperial vehicles, or they cry. If you ever get around to it.
The list is a bit monotonous for my taste and you'd probably agree if you were making the models, but the minimalism should be effective.

If I wanted to add more variety to the list, I'd bump it up to 2000 and add some deep striking stormboyz.

I know they fit the list, but I would avoid taking them if you can. Not sure what else would fit though. The models are pretty awesome though. Reds |

Stormboyz make for great distractions, but they're not really a unit you want to base your entire battleplan around.

My problem with them is they really need cover, since their save is 6+, but they can't DS into it or land in it or they take wounds. This means they have to either sit out in the open when they arrive, or hop from cover to cover and hope a Hellhound or something doesn't come along.
That said, the kit is great, and worth getting just to build, even if you don't use them.

Yeah, Stormboyz with Zagstrukk are generally the best way to go if you want to land in the open with DS. Too bad you need to land within 6" of your target in order to get the charge, but if it works, they're a great delaying unit.
The other problem is they get pretty expensive when that happens.

StormBoyz are even better when you don't Deep Strike them. They're one of the fastest Units in the Game. 12+2d6" total Movement if they don't Assault, 18+d6" if they do.
There are a couple of Players around here who use them regularly, very effectively, and I've never seen them Deep Strike once. Even coming on from Reserves, they can often still hit a Unit in your Opponent's backfield the Turn after moving on the Board.
15 Stormboyz with a PK/BP Nob is pretty much the first thing on my To-Do List next time I swing back around to my Orks.
