So I am a fairly new table top player and I am building orks for my second army. In the codex for Mega Nobz the squad is built of 2 mega nobz + 1 Boss mega nob. What my question is, can I use Thraka as the boss nob in that squad?

Does it list that as an option anywhere?

If you're asking about using the Thraka model as a boss nob, that's fine.

If you're asking about using the Thraka RULES as a boss nob, that's a no-go.

Nope, you can't.
A boss nob is the name for the squad sergeant.
Thraka is a unique character that takes up a LOW slot.
You don't get to mix and match the two

thanks for the replies i was curious because thraka is listed as unit type infantry (character) in the codex. i know he is a lord of war. but the codex under unit type says that in 7th and for the boss mega nob it states the same infantry character so thats where i got the confusion from thanks for clearing that up

Ah, I see the confusion.

The unit type 'infantry (character)' doesn't mean you can substitute in any 'infantry (character)', but means the specific stat line of the Boss-nob in the unit follows the rules of being an infantry model and a character.

Just wait a bit, the 8th is coming very soon.
