So I am new to running bikers in general but this will be fun for any 500 point games a lot of my friends like to do every now and then, plus ill get to field my new forge world model I painted up and my kustum built warboss biker they will be on there own but I figure hey 500 points why the heck not! They are tuff!! Well ill learn anyways. Just looks for any comments.

500 so yep it is small

Warboss-150
Bike
Power klaw

Cybork armor

Warboss-150

15 shoota boyz-95

16 shoota boyz-101

496

Might as well get an Ammo Runt for one of the Bosses with those extra points.

If you up the points cost a little, you could run two bosses and six nob bikers - ditch those puny footsloggers altogether!

Edit: Nevermind man, you could make one Boss into Wazdakka and take Warbikers as troops?

Wazdakka
Warboss w/ Bike, Bosspole, Attack Squig, K-Skorcha, Power Klaw

4x Warbikers
3x Warbikers

Run each Warbiker mob with Waz or the Warboss to give them a bosspole because of their leadershit.

^^^ im sure thats a typo dakkamite (its fitting though) but you probably want to fix it before it becomes an issue...

For a small army it probably would be better to have all bikers, at the moment I cant see those walking guys contributing a huge amount other than dying.

Yeah I'm thinking that as well, last time there was a mini 500 tourney you only had to have one troop slot. So I could do the two war bosses and the left over two hundred could be for a mini "death star" of more job bikes.

2x Biker Boss [Bike, Klaw, K-Skorcha, Cybork]
3x Nob Bikers, w/ 1x Power Klaw, 2x K-Skorcha, Cybork, Painboy upgrade,

Bang on 500 points. This list will stomp some pretty serious face man. Between its mad dakka, dem skorchas, and its crazy close combat krumpiness, it will stomp anything else at 500 points.

My thoughts exactly good sir, if the rule is one troop choice again this is probably exactly what I will run if I get my other bikes painted O.o. A little off topic but this would be my second list, I think it would be crazy.

Personally I would take Wazdakka and a Bike warboss. After that, take some bikes as troops. Might not be as many troops, but it would be a nice little list that you can do!

So, your warbosses run without squad? They'd get pretty high target prio with every plasma gun/melta gun/lascannon there is.. the rest of the boys are too few to be a good squad size.

I'd drop one boss, and add a biker squad to accompany the remaining boss.

Run the Kan Kraziness, if you drop off the extra grotz you can upgrade some of the Kans weapons.

I dunno man, I've been running Kans lately and they're ten different kinds of suck

I disagree, I think Kans are great. Had great success with them, especially when they come in numbers. They also add valuable AT to the army, when fitted with rokkits..

How do you use them? Doesn't seem to matter how many I throw at the other guy, they all get nailed
