Please could we add Bommerz to the main ork list? Far as I'm aware there's no compelling reason not to and it would give those who own the lovely FW models more opportunity to use them. They are currently only in the OGBM and the Blood Axe list, but they're just large bombers and not associated with any particular ork subset and so should be available to all ork lists (except Feral and possibly Speed Freaks), like Marauder Bombers are for imperials.
We tried not to add units to established lists. The only changes to the official lists are minor point tweaks.
Bommerz change the character of the list somewhat as well. Orks have to chase after stuff on the ground. Having a large-ish barrage available via aircraft changes that.

I'm not familiar with the development but is it necessary to have two Blood Axe lists? Could things maybe not be worked out and combined like other lists have done?
They have substantially different features. Sumbuddieruvver's horde is still very orkified, even though it's Blood Axe. Kolonel Rommel's has relatively unconverted looted imperial vehicles and some added randomness.
I think we need to work out the naming conventions so the distinction is clear on first glance as to what the lists represent, but I think the roles are different enough to justify 2 lists.

Possibly consider adopting the points drop for the Kill Kroozer as Epic-UK have done? I get the impression it's not worth it or taken at the moment.
I'm okay with that, and probably with the 10 point Fortress drop as well. Those are effectively new proposals that we hadn't seen until just recently.
