So, I plan on mostly doing tournaments, but on a scale of 1-10 how quickly will either list lose me friends?

1st list: footslogging toole dup nobs? pointless.



2nd list: lack of anti tank means they are fethed.

thought the list was a tad points heavy

list 1 seems a tad weak, yes, you have 2 tooled up units of biker nobz, does not mean you will win.

at that points level i would drop 1 unit of nobz and take some boyz and as many lootas as possible.



list 2: no, thats not anti-tank, boyz with rokkitz = fail from the start.
15 rokkitz fired per turn 5 hit, now lets face it, thats hardly going to do much.

klaws are good, footslogging claws are not.
you need to get close enough to use them, most mobile armies will just hang back and shoot the feth out of you, leaving your boyz dying in droves and unable to do much in return.

drop a unit of boyz, invest in a mek with KFF.
drop all the rokkitz as they are gak.
buy some rokkit kanz / koptas / buggies.
anything is better than boyz with rokkitz.

You're likely to lose friends faster with the first list.

For the second list I second what JD21290 said. With no armor of your own to threaten enemy armor, I see a long day for your troops as ordinance gets dropped on them for the entire game. I know running and Ghazghkull will help, but still, not a pretty picture. Plus on a small board, you might run into problems of the mobs getting in each others way.

Well, everyone should by now know that if you take the Ork Nob Biker List, you are TFG pretty much automatically.

And that since it is so powerful because of the wound allocation shenanigans, you can pretty much guarantee it getting nerfed in about 4 years when the next codex comes. Or 10 years if you are dark eldar haha.

Chuck Norris weeps though.. or is that Sly Marbo?

vindicator: S10 AP2.
whirlwind: S4 AP5 no cover saves.


nob bikers mean nothing.
most pie plates do a good job on them, daemons are amazing against them as letters cut through them before the nobs get to attack.
bloodcrushers simple crush the bikers without any problems.

nob bikerz are "strong" but it doesent mean they cant be killed.
even nidzilla would do well against them.

Get some Lootas for AT in the 2nd list. I think that the 2nd list is WAY better. In List 1 you try and go all "Ooooh! I've got Nob Bikerz!!! Autowin!" Everybody and their Grandma has a strategy to beat that kind of army list because it's been used so much! Also, your lack of models/scoring units is scary. Nob Bikerz aren't invincible, and btw you have a whopping 14 . You have 2 scoring units. Not enough. Even other Biker lists have more than 2! Sure you kill 1 unit per turn per unit of bikers, but you will be bogged down because your enemy will just feed you 1 unit of expendable troops per turn. In any objective game, you're done. In any KP game you might be okay, just so long as your opponent doesn't shoot the crap out of your bikers... oh, wait, you only have biker nobz! List 2 should just get some AT and it'll be good.

Hello Guardsmen, look at your Leman, now back to mine, now back to your Leman, now back to mine. Sadly, your Leman isn't mine, but if they stopped using standard engines and switched to Lucifer Pattern, they could move like they're mine. Look down, back up. Where are you? Your in a battlefield with the Rhino your Leman could move like. Whats in your hand, back at me, I have it, it's the fire control for the Twin-linked Assault Cannons aimed at you. Look again, it's a Deep-Striked Land-Raider. Anything is possible when your Tanks move like Blood Angels, and not like Guardsmen. I'm on a Baneblade.

if you want a viable nob biker list with some speed:

HQ

wazdakka - 180

warboss; bike, klaw, bosspole, squig - 140

Troop:

6 nobs: 448

1: Cybork, bike, big choppa, rokkit kombi - 60
2: Cybork, bike, big choppa, skorcha kombi - 60
3: Cybork, bike, klaw, waaagh banner - 95
4: Cybork, bike, klaw, ammo runt - 78
5: Cybork, bike, klaw - 75
6: Cybork, painboy, bike - 80

5 warbikerz; nob, klaw, bosspole - 165

5 warbikerz; nob, klaw, bosspole - 165

5 warbikerz; nob, klaw, bosspole - 165

4 warbikerz; nob, klaw, bosspole - 140

4 warbikerz - 100


1,503 points.

sorry if math is a tad wrong, its late ish.

6 scoring units in the army, all highly mobile.
throw the klaw boss with the basic 4 bikerz to give them a klaw and bosspole.
thats alot of mobile klawz for anti-tank, the gunz should be more than enough to mow down infantry.

31 models aswell

Wazdakka allows Warbikers to be taken as Troop Choice... I believe...
