Me and a friend recently got the AoBr boxed set (he got space marines, i got orks) and i was wanting to know about some of the basic but effective ork army builds, so that i know what models to get next to advance my army.
Also, any advice on equiping said models would be appreciated.

I have :
1 Warboss
10 Nobz (already had 5)
20 Boyz
3 Deff Koptas

I'd like to ask the same thing (but I have nothing yet).
I was planning to make a smaller, mobile army and don't know if it is viable. I was thinking a force of may be 2 nob biker gangs, backed up by a bunch of boyz or looters on that ork vehicle (not the trukk, the other 1 with guns and open top). As well as a few kopters. I have no idea if this is even legal, though.

With what you have you could run a list like this.

HQ
Ghazghkull - 225

Troops
Nobz x9 (All with 'Eavy Armor, and Cybork) - 414
-Painboy
-PK
-Big Choppa
-PK, Boss pole
-Waaagh! Banner
-PK, Ammo Grot
-Big Choppa, Ammo Grot
-Ammo Grot
-Normal Nob

Shoota Boyz x20 (2x Big Shoota), 1x Nob (PK, Boss pole) - 166

Fast Attack
Deff Kopta (TL Rokkits, Buzz Saw) - 70
Deff Kopta (TL Rokkits, Buzz Saw) - 70
Deff Kopta (TL Rokkits) - 45

1,000

This list is 1,000 points, has one dead killy group and one group that can go to ground and hold an objective with ease. Ghazghkull can really krump things and his Waaagh! is deadly.

The Koptas can outflank and bust tanks with their melee and their assault.

Wow, thanks norade! I was thinking 1000pts would be a good base to build my army around and that sounds perfect.

Your welcome, I hope it works out well for you.

Norades examples is good, and allows you to abuse the wound allocation table as all nobz have unique wargear.

At the moment you have two troops, 30 models in total. Not a lot. I would get another three mobz of 30 boyz. But if you're going foot Ork list I would get three units of three Killa Kanz to make a kan wall.
