It’s a simple setup. Deathwing can easily be brought down by numbers but these guys have so much to offer: 4 different types of saving rolls, toughness 5, 2 wounds, scoring unit, WS 5, speed and shooting range.

But I ain’t stupid I do realize that there are armies out there that will tear it apart and in multiple objective missions they’re screwed which why I decided to throw 2 small grot squads in there to sit on objectives near my deployment and hide with it for the whole game why my bikers pay a visit to the ones on my opponents side of the board.

I believe it would be a fun and unique army to play and I’ve got an idea to convert the bikers like armored knights and using the goblins from Warhammer fantasy and paint each half of the army a different color, black knights on one side white on the other like rivals with tallies on their banners.

What do you think it would be like to play?
Feel free to suggest on how to improve the list but without improving the model count.

Er... yeah

I did consider such a list back when the Ork Codex was re-released as I had finished a grot themed guard army and wasn’t up for painting that many greenskins again. However I was unsure about how the army would perform and thought it would do badly, until today when I saw someone at the GT finals using an army of 2 units of 10 Nob bikers lead by warbosses by the end of the day he was ranked in the top 5 beating both a chaos lash and nidzilla army in the 2nd and 3rd round, I look forward to seeing the overall results tomorrow evening. Seeing how well it did made me want to rethink my previous decision to drop such an army idea.

Also if anyone thinks I'm just copying this guy I'll gladly give you a link to my army list post posted in 2006 on another forum.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613296.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613296.page GMT Re:1500pts Ork Medal Eads! (Nob Biker Army) PM-zerker spam), and you are suggesting it here as if it is a perfectly ordinary army you want to play for fun.

However, that aside, I like the idea that you have for your army, and it seems to me that you're playing it for fun, not to lay the smack down on every hapless stranger you meet. So good luck and have fun converting.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613327.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613327.page GMT 1500pts Ork Medal Eads!

I'd replace one Nob Biker mob and the Grotz simply by Boyz. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613627.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613627.page GMT 1500pts Ork Medal Eads! (Nob Biker Army)

I choose that based of a neat little trick I've been told about, by giving the squad a large variety of weapons there are more types of models to divide the wounds with, thus making the unit last a little longer.

@OP:

If you're playing nob bikers then you may as well do the multiple wound trick. Attack squigs on the warbosses couldnt hurt. You may also want to add a few more bodies to the grot mobs so they can weather shooting a little better.

You have to bear in mind that lots of people are running around with nob-biker lists at the moment so nobody will like that the list itself is anything different (which it isnt really). Your conversion idea sounds fantastic though, make sure you post pictures when you're done with it.

Problem is to afford all of those I'd have to drop 2 more nob bikers, besides the grots should be safe from everything that isn't outflanking or deep striking and it's not like the nobs lack the mobilty to turn around and assist them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613951.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/613951.page GMT Re:1500pts Ork Medal Eads!

that way you can bulk out the army a little and keep it cost effective.
also you gain another 1-2 scoring units that are mobile and can fight if needed.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/615549.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/615549.page GMT Re:1500pts Ork Medal Eads! (Nob Biker Army)
135 – Warboss: Power Klaw, Warbike and Cyborg Body.

513 - 8 Nob Bikerz: 2 Power Klawz, 1 Big Choppa, 1 Kustom-Skotcha, Boss Pole, Waaagh Banner, 2 Choppas and Painboy all have cybork bodies and stikkbombs.

This has left me 103pts to spend on a support unit anymore and I risk weakening the biker squad. I'm thinking of taking one of these 3...

1X20 Grots (objective grabbing) & An Attack Squig for the Warboss,
1X10 Grots (objective grabbing) & 3 Kannons for support,
Or some boys on foot?

But I am open for other suggestions?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/627707.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233301/627707.page GMT 1500pts Ork Medal Eads!
