three simple questions that I couldn't answer and can't find anywhere:

1.- Can I take 2 waaagh banners in a nob squad?

2.- and if I can: do I get +2 WS?

3.- Even if I don't get the +2 WS: can I carry 2 waaagh banners?

And for who is asking, yes is for Wound Allocation Rule

1. Yes.
2. No.
3. Yes.

There's nothing in the FAQ about the waaagh banner as far as I can see so this is entirely based on the codex.

1. I think yes, you may take 2, since it is under the "any nob may take" section of wargear.

2. I feel you wouldn't get +2WS, the rules for the waaagh banner say "A mob including a Waaagh! Banner has +1 WS." I read this as meaning regardless of how many Waaagh! Banners you include you only get +1WS, and would expect a phrase more like "A Waaagh! Banner grants the unit it is included in +1 WS." to let it stack.

3. Already covered, yes you may take 2 but only get +1 WS. Regarding the fact that it's being used to distinguish models for wound allocation, there are surely much easier(cheaper) ways, such as ammo runts, bosspoles, kombi weapons/twin linked shootas(only for nobz with klaws/big choppas), all of which are significantly cheaper than multiple waaagh! banners.

Thanks very much for the help.

If you have 1 abnner, you are "a mob with a banner"
If you have 2 banners, you are "a mob with a banner" - you also have another one.

Nob bikers by any chance? Say hello to psyker battle squads and objectives placed on the 3rd floor of buildings. It's old and already quite dull - unless you do awesome models, in which case bring it on!

My God, stop with the long winded answers. A Simple yes or no would have been sufficient

All correct as well!

If banner holder is killed does mob lose WS bonus?

Yes, they do. Why would it keep it if the banner is no longer there?

Then that's why you take 2. Nobz being the points sink they are need to keep that +1WS.

wow thanks all. the question is already answered.

and nosferatu1001 if the objective is in the third level of a building 2 squads of 20 stormboyz each should do the trick.
if not, the lootas will take care that the enemy doesn't get it either XD
