I was looking at allies, and I thought I might try some in my speed freaks army..

5 Nob bikers w/ Wazdakka
27 Warbikers w/ nob (though im considering putting the 3 nobs from these squads into the squad of 5, to make it 8 nobs and wazdakka)
2 dakka jets.

420 pts left (till 2k)

Maybe tau broadsides for the anti vehicle? Farseer for psyker? Obliterators for death of everything?

IDK! Ideas?

Well, looks like a fun army to play.
In fact, I'd add some units able to provide fire support. Tau is a decent choice here with Fire Warriors and Broadsides.

I was thinking that if i was adding tau, maybe kroots for more CC, then broadsides for more tank killy goodness.

Dont really need any kind of anti-infantry shooting coz bikes doing assault3, same with the dakka jets, thats 123 TL shots

But then again, i dont really know anything about tau FW, so i'll have to have a look

I would definitely bring a warboss biker to make your nob biker troops. Then nob bikers really ought to be set up nicely.

I would try 3 dakkajets and necron flyers. This complements the speed of your army and uses the fact that your bikers are hard to kill.

Necron flyers(and occupants) can deal well enough with mech.

I feel Obliterators are over rated. Then they will be a big target with a fast list that doesn't need st8 or ap2 to kill it.

Imperial guard could work, though I would take orky shooting over IG shooting. But then also bring a couple of vendettas.

Eldar are desperate allies. This may still be worth it. I guess you are eyeing up their bikers, but I feel they are pricey and not really quite as good as bikers.
Farseer with guide with a squad of pathrangers would be ok, though this would be fun with orks doing most of the work.

nah, the eldar dont really interest me that much. Sold my army of them a few weeks ago.

Warboss with bike. I actually own one of them (from ebay), that ive not put together yet... 30something pieces with no instructions has kinda put me off it

Hmm, necron fliers. I'd really rather avoid tbh. Its not some super competitive list, and mostly would just be playing my two friends atm as we get our armies together, and neither of them have any skyfire or fliers themselves, so having more than 2 fliers would just be mean

Obliterators, i think you're rght there actually. They seem to be good at everything, but not really great at anything.

I'm just lookin for somethin to take out tanks and other armour. Friends play Chaos and Space marine, so theres a few preds, dreadnaughts, rhinos and a land raider (which is incredibly hard for me to pop with just the power klaws on my nob bikers), is why i was thinking of some broadsides just to take them out, while my bikes and planes deal with their infantry.

If you take IG, take as many battlecannons as possible for your very own "Supa-Boomwagons". Model them with grot crewmembers and have guardsmen using grot models. (What's the difference, am I right?)
