I play a bike army and this is my normal configuration.
* Searg with PF
* 2 normal bikes
* 2 bikes with PG or MG
* Attack bike with HB or MM
I use the PG/HB combo if I am going to be using it to hunt infantry. I use the MG / MM combo to hunt tanks. I find 6 bikes (including the heavy bolter) gives enough wounds to make the squad pretty resilient. You can also use some would allocation magic, as there are 4 different types of models in the squad.

I used to bring full squads but now use this size, and I've just found better results.

Why take the Captain w/ Relic blade and stuff and not just take Khan? I can't remember all the point stuff, but outflanking bikes are pretty scary sometimes.

Because of unit coherency.... A 2k army with a large amount of blast weapons and a couple lucky rolls could decimate a large part of your army pretty quickly. A PC hit on your speeders could take out multiple ones easily.

Lucky vindicators could decimate entire units as well. I guess those are chances you take

Personally I like combat tactics. Bi use the auto failing of leadership often with my bikes to get them out of assault. I would not like to lose that

Good point. I always play CSM, so I forgot about that combat tactics. Sound Strategy
