Careful of Vendi and tank shocks. Otherwise, seems legit.

drop the big mek with KFF. you dont need him at all. drop your warboss thats footslogging. every model with a warbike now automatically gets a 4 plus cover save. drop anything on foot and get more bikers/nob bikers. you can do it. drop anything that gives you a 4+ armor because the warbike automatically give you 4+ armor and a 4+ cover save due to smoke screen ork special rule. use Wazzdakka Gutsmek HQ making all your warbikers troop choice. drop the ammo runts because your going to be shooting enough to drop dice on whatever your shooting at so you wont need him. the grot orderly is fine, but me personally i wouldnt take him. boss poles are fine. if you find them useful and you always role what you need for them then use them. i dont like them because i always seem to fail the boss pole role so i throw the 5pts somewhere else. max out your nob bikers to 10 in each unit.
BOOM! awesome army right there. go kick some ass! Automatically Appended Next Post: also make sure to have enough PKs in each unit and dont worry about the initiative 1 negative bikers get the hammer of wrath special rule which allows them to make an automatic hit at base models S and AP- if in base contact when they charged and its resolved before anyone else goes because its at initiative 10.

Not enough bikers, everything is going at a different pace.
I would recommend:
HQ
Wazdakka 180p
Warboss with Warbike and PK 125P
Troops
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP and PK 215p
7 Warbikers 1 Nob with BP 190p
2000p lacks long range AT for above AV11 though.
But with turboboost sheer ton of firepower wounds toughness it's nigh on unkillable.

Really? You don't think I should keep the Lootas? And what about a Bomber or jet or something?

Bommers and dakkajets would mesh in with this army very well.
Otherwise, I would take Wazdakka and a Warboss on a bike (T6 = immune to instant death for the most part).
One squad of nob bikers as troops.
One squad of nob bikers as elites
Warbikers for troops.
Flyers as appropriate.
If possible, I would add a squadron of rokkit buggies for a little extra AT firepower.
However, compared to their SM equivalents, I find ork warbikers come up a bit short. While they do have a slightly stronger weapon, SM can take special weapons to make up for it. Point wise, you are the same, yet SM get a 3+ armor and 5+ jink to your 4+ armor / 4+ cover (no need to jink ever).
So, with that being said, I think the nob bikers would be your main focus of the army with everything else supporting them.

Check this list out:

I may retire 1 or 2 deffkopta for a DakkaJet or a Kannon battery behind an Aegis Defense wall. Still pondering...

That list would work in 6th. Again i would try all bikers if you can and see how that goes. I garuntee that would soak up some fire. Dont go all crazy on the load outs for your nobz so you can get more bikes. A heavy biker list with ork flyer support would be interesting to see as well.

Boring??? Whaaaa... Thats why i play orks theyre not OP and when you a build that wrecks shop you can still fun with them because theyre orks and, as suggested above, run an entire bike army would be epic. Where have you seen that done before? Not in a long while im sure. Automatically Appended Next Post: If you dont want to try a whole biker army gor for bikers with air support. I know once all my bikes are built and have played some matches try using the flyers with bikes. I think it would be fun and competitive.

Haha yeah your right playing Orks can never be boring, but where do I get nob bikers? Should I make them? And I only have a couple bikers at the moment. Do you guys know of any cheaper than GW site in the US where I can order them?

I kitbash the biker squads with a pack of nobz and the results are pretty good. Usually you have to chop a leg off of a nob or two to get them to fit, but then I use stikk bombz as peg legs and there you go wysiwyg cybork!

He may be awful compared to 5th edition, but he is needed with footslogging orks, as cover is just to rare and is per model, depending on how you plan to use him.

Yeah for foot slogging orks its good to have the KFF and fot green tide its on the lvl of required. Automatically Appended Next Post: But when playing with the suggested list above you would get more from the bikes as they get auto 4+,4+ and for nob bikers 4+,5+,5+ depending on load out.
If the boyz are still going to be used use the KFF but i again say you should drop the KFF and boyz, etc for bikers.

That's almost 1000$ in JUST bikes. No thanks lol, I wouldn't play an all bikes list myself. You need more than TL strength 5 dakkaguns. I personally no matter the list will ALWAYS be taking lootas. I'm going to run something close to a green tide bikes list. It's just scarey lol but that's my 2 cents...
Something likes
Warboss

Nob bikers
lootas lootas

Buy AOBR Deffkoptas. If you look at the link in my signature, I've got an example some koptas-bike conversions if you're interested.

Maybe try bad moon bikers. You dont see that much and i think it would look cool with lots of bikes with yellow and black flames everywhere. Automatically Appended Next Post: Mine arnt painyed yet. Most of my infantry from ly 5th ed lists are though. It takes me forever to paint them Automatically Appended Next Post: Basicly they look like the orks on the cover of the current codex but with more black on the pants and shirts. Mine have a bit more red in their checks and dags than what is described as the proper amount for a goff to have.

Thanks! It's up in the P&M tutorials section on Dakka.
Sadly, they've become rarer on ebay (or so it seems to me) and will be phased out with a new starter set.
