So i posted these lists a few days ago asking for opinions

List #1

HQ

Warboss: Bike, cybork body, attack squig, Power Klaw

Troops

5 ork nobz: bikes, 2 power klaws, 2 uge choppas, 1 painboy
20 ork boyz: Nob, Power Klaw, sluggas and choppas
20 ork boyz: Nob, Power Klaw, sluggas and choppas
30 ork boyz: Nob, power Klaw, shootas, 3 big shoots
30 ork boyz: Nob, power Klaw, shootas, 3 big shoots

Fast Attack

20 storm boyz: nob, Power Klaw
20 storm boyz: nob, Power Klaw



List #2

HQ

Warboss: Bike, cybork body, attack squig, Power Klaw

Troops

5 ork nobz: bikes, 2 power klaws, 2 uge choppas, 1 painboy
20 ork boyz: Nob, Power Klaw, shootas, 2 big shootas
20 ork boyz: Nob, Power Klaw, shootas, 2 big shootas

Fast Attack

20 storm boyz: nob, Power Klaw
20 storm boyz: nob, Power Klaw

Elites:

15 lootas
15 lootas


Each of these lists was lacking what the other had. List one had numbers, but no support. List two had support, but not enough numbers (for an ork.) I found out that the nob bikers were a HORRIBLE point sink. they costed 355 and the closest they ever came to paying off those points was 300. thay also became target priority #1 for all heavy weapons/ medium weapons (Strength 5 or 6.) I found the warboss functioned better on his own, with no unit. Less attention, better at supporting/ tank hunting. So i wrote this new list that combined both lists dropping the nobz.

I have 155 points left over still for an 1850 point army.. im either gona invest in a Big Mek with a SAG, some more boyz, or maybe a tank, if i can make one with good enemy armour killing abillity. Any more suggetsions for this list would be great. Ive tested this once currently. Faired very well. People usually dont worry about the warboss too much because they got 40 stormboyz flying at em off the start, backed by 100 more boyz (60 shoota, 40 slugga,) with tons of support fire from the lootas (dropping between 5 and 13 marines a turn.) There is a total of 171 boyz so far, not too bad for a 1850 list. The boss is basically there to help the boyz if tey run into termies or wraith gaurd or some other troop thats hard to crack. Or just to run around tearing holes in land raiders, monoliths, lemun russ's, etc. Again, suggestions welcome!

If Rampage Jackson was in warhammer, he would be an ork.

I like the list but the lack of Str 8 weapons scares me. I know the boss is good at Krump'n tanks but he just won't be able to kill enough.

So I have a couple suggestions for those last 155.
-Another exactly decked out boss, (I do this alot, I call them DaKrumpa Brothas)
-Two sets of Artillery Kannons(str-8) or Zap(ap2 vs termies)
-Killa Kans with Kustom Mega-Blasta, probly in two groups of one
-A trio of twinlinked rokkit buggies as your last fast choice
-Upgrade those squads to Rokkits over Big Shootas

Huh... well you still have 150 points left right? I would go with another Biker-Boss or a klawed out KFF BigMek.

BigMek
-Kustom Force Field
-PowerKlaw
-100pts
Just stick him in between your Sluggas when you want to be aggressive and next to your shootas when you think its going to be a dakkafest match.

With the last 50 points have fun, I personaly would field killakan with a rokkit or a grotzooka + riggers
