"If ya ain't makin' teef den why you'z krumpin dat git?"
The Wanderin' Waaagh, a Kroosade fer Teef
Most waaaghs are simple affairs once you get past the logistics and the chaos. Orks like fighting, and they like looting, so waaaghs supply those two desires. But what happens if you get a warboss of such incredible charisma that he can keep Orks on target, on time, and under budget?
You get Kaptan Blu Toof. Granted 'on target, on time, and under budget' is a rather loose affair for Orks but getting them to pull away from a fight when they aren't making a profit is an impressive feet in and of itself.
Blu Toof wanders the edge of the Imperium, preying on the Tau and fighting with the Chimera legion. Thanks to the efforts of a rogue trader he's learned the importance of picking your battles to maximize profit and his personal Space Hulk. His 'territory' for the moment consists of six or so sectors that Chaos, the Tau, and of course the Imperium are fighting for control of. Orks were a part of the conquest but after serious losses on and above Hyacinthum Hortus the local ork population dropped significantly.
While it is entirely within his means to spark a second Waaagh and possibly gain control of one or more sectors Blu Toof doesn't see the profit in it, instead he engages in Merk Werk and raids Tau supply lines for dat flash blue boy dakka! For the moment at least dem 'umies simply isn't worth da foight and dem spikey boys is too kunnin to chase down with any dependability.
So Blu Toof and his boys wander the kosmos in search of teef and a proppa fight in a neverending Waaagh for Teef - Heaven help the imperium when they run out of blue gits to krump.

Organization
Blu Toof has assimilated a few different minor klans into his own, and pointed them at the Tau. Here's a few groups of note:
Shoota Boyz: The standard boyz have been beefed up a bit by their looted Tau gear. Blu Toof trains them extensively, until they can march, drill, and form firing lines with an actual degree of discipline. They might not get a lot of Tau gear each, but a dakka-line full of boyz who actually hit what they aim at ain't nothin to scoff at.
Longarmz: Da Longarmz are the closest equivalent to a Kommando in the Strait Shootas. They loot enormous railguns from Tau Hammerheads and Broadsides, make them suitably Orky, and lug them into the jungle. They are renowned for their ability to sneak through enemy territory with such massive weapons, although they usually are only capable of a single shot before the massive blue beam of energy gives away their position. Explaining a high-priority target to a Longarm is virtually impossible, but they can be counted on to shoot at the biggest git with the best kit. To an Ork, that's clearly the one in charge. (Yes, Ork Snipers are finally a thing.)
