you can't go wrong with a Power Klaw.
I use a combi-skorcha too or a little extra punch.
add an attack squig to the bundle and you're looking at 125pts of nasty hurt.

If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.

Foot Warboss:
PK, Squig, Eavy armour. Thats all you really need.
For a biker boss, take of the Eavy armour and give him a warbike.

Power Klaws are mandatory. There's no point taking a Big Choppa, even if it is S7, when you can have an S10 powerfist on a WS5 model.
I'd also recommend taking an Attack Squig to make up for the loss of the CCW+pistol attack, and a kombi-skorcha would be a nice addition too.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Power Klaw is a must, Boss Pole too...And a huge retinue of Nobz  One thing you should definately NOT give him is Mega-Armour. Yeah sure, 2+ Armour Save, but most bricks can move faster than him, and you want to get the Boss into the fray as quickly as possible!!

Actually, Mega-Armour on the boss ain't bad. Nothing wrong with a nice 2+ save. Combine it with cybork body and a Painboy, and that's one tough Warboss.
Of course, you can just take Ghazghkull instead.

And if you mount a mega armor mob in either a trukk or BW then you can quite easily get them into CC on the 2nd turn.

I think you might be using the old codex. Is this the book's cover?
If so, you've got the old one.

MY Warboss:
Mega-armour, cybork body, bosspole, attack squig.
Sure he limps along from time to time( but with three dice it isn't a huge problem) but no self-respecting warboss is gonna show up to a fight in weedy armour if there s a suit of mega-armour to be had...

Squishy Squig

I'm planning on making a biker boss with a biker nob squad as his body guards.
He'll have a power klaw and shoota/skorcha, bringing him up to 135 pts.
