Hmmmm it looks like warbike it is just gotta get a cool conversion goin on or something for it. May have to reconfigure my list and such.I just want my warboss to be proper and savagely beat everything that moves.



Edit: Lookin at you guys think the FW biker boss is worth it? I mean I live in the US a lil nervous about ordering from outer state.

The AOBR warboss is a simple fit onto a bike - there are more elaborate conversions around too, of course. It's worth keeping an eye open, or an eBay search, for the AOBR boss just in case, as they're now getting a bit thin on the ground. Lots of people do bigger bikes, including Ramshackle.

The FW boss is beautiful, but obviously very pricey indeed.

FW boss is fine if you lack a lot of customization skills, which a bikerboss kinda needs. Simply putting an AOBR boss on a bike doesnt cut it for me...

This is technically Wazdakka Gutsmek but i use him as a warboss because hes way cooler than my actual warboss conversion.

Spoiler:




All you need is a nob torso/head and an excess of random wheely or geared looking bitz...the bit of plastic tubing and plasticard helps too lol

The only other ork player near me also has a bikerboss he built himself, but that dude didnt build a bike...he built a freakin monster lol (its an AOBR Deffkopta converted to have a massive spikeball for a wheel that circles the entire thing and has a huge Ork Glyph for a ram-like front...freakin crazy huge but damn awesome nontheless lol)

My warboss has never survived a battle. But I've never used a mega boss, usually war biker boss, occasionally regular boss.

Depends on how suicidal you are with the nob missile. They arent immortal, theyre just nearly impossible to take out in 1 turn or even 2.

I let mine take a detour and waste a turn of shooting/possible assault to stay completely out of sight if i can. Yes, i get there turn 3 instead of turn 2, but i am full strength unless i got hit with turn 1 table-dakka so its a 5-7 Nob + Boss ball with all wounds, 3 PKs (including boss), painboy, bigchoppas, and anti-charge Scorchas since charging them first is a bigger problem than you think. Theyre very likely to survive the random potshots, but if the bulk of the enemy can shoot at you they will die.

Also avoid sending him at mindshackle scarab users or insanely powerful melee bosses such as the Swarmlord or any psyker that out initiatives him (which should be nearly all of them) since hes only got 3 wounds and doesnt have eternal warrior.
