Nob Bikers?

I recently got an email asking whether or not I could come up with a Nob Biker list aimed at essentially guaranteeing a victory in a single scenario, whilst also being strong in the others. After about 30 minutes of trials, and a few tweaks, I've managed to come up with the following;

HQ:

Ork Warboss - 140pts

  • Warbike

  • Cybork Body

  • Power Klaw

  • Boss Pole

Ork Warboss - 140pts

  • Warbike

  • Cybork Body

  • Power Klaw

  • Boss Pole

Troops:

Ork Nob Squad - 570pts

  • 7 Models

  • Waaagh Banner

  • Painboy

  • 7x Power Klaw

  • 7x Warbike

  • 7x Cybork Body

Ork Nob Squad - 645pts

  • 8 Models

  • Waaagh Banner

  • Painboy

  • 8x Power Klaw

  • 8x Warbike

  • 8x Cybork Body

The list is aimed at ensuring a victory in 'Annihilation' scenario's. The list only gives away 4 kill points in total, but has more than enough killing potential to get a solid few kill points under its belt, before it simply turbo boosts away and avoids the enemy.

Where does the list suffer? Ordnance. Anything sporting STR10 becomes an issue, as with STR8 weapons you can simply allocate the wounds onto the warboss to avoid losing a Nob Biker to instant death. The Waaagh banners are also crucial, ensuring that Nob bikers make the most of out their attacks, by hitting 3/4 attacks on average.

If anyone has any questions about an army list, or would like advice, please feel free to contact me at: levett01@gmail.com
