Ok so i recently started going through all the odds an ends of an army i purchased not too long ago.

Anyways, i found the back end of a half track ... or something like that ,, it's a set of treads, and it has a seat and a place where there apparently used to be handle bars. But the fron wheel is gone .. as are the fron forks.

My question is this ... can i convert this and use it as a warbike? Can Bikes have Treads? i just need an idea of what i can use this for

Wot's faster than a warbuggy, more killy than a warbike, and flies through da air like a bird? I got no bleedin' idea, but I'm gonna find out.

Yes, bikes can have treads. The old ork warbikes used to have them, and I think one of the new ones does as well.

Yeah one of the new one has some, I am working on it right now

I'd say you have a project there!

ok .. mine is more the size of a wartrakk then.

But my playgroup has agreed to let me field it as a warbike for one of my Warbosses

And so they should! a warboss does not ride no puny bike! he rides a metal monstrocity!


This is my warboss, who doubles up as a wazzdakka conversion too. You cant quite tell from the shot but his bike is huge. its tracked at the back and its probably half again as long as a normal ork bike. The warboss himself is pretty small, but I love that model and the fluff of my army doesn't have the biggest greenskin leading, so tis all good

But yeh you should definitely be making a nice big warboss on bike outa your tracks!

Favourite Game: When your Warboss on bike wrecks 3 vehicles simply by HoW - especially when his bike is a custom monowheel.
