In 8th Edition Stormboyz are ''fast'', possessing a standard move of 12". Due to their Jump Pack and Fly keywords they can cross any obstacle, and when they Advance they can even choose to move a full 6" rather than rolling the dice. However, if they do so, you must roll a D6 for each model in the mob, and if you roll a 1, a boy dies from a mortal wound. He's either blown up in midair, faceplanted into the ground, hit a tree... use your imagination. Even so, this ability to move up to 18" before any buffs are even taken into account makes Stormboyz great for capping objectives, tying up critical enemy squads, and eliminating back-field support units.

In terms of their statblock, Stormboyz are absolutely the same as typical Slugga boys at a slightly higher cost (9 points each). Given the benefits these silly rokkit packs offer, that's pretty much a steal, just keep in mind that they will die ''fast'' if focused before they can get stuck in. Like standard boyz mobs, the Stormboyz can bring a single [[Nob]] who comes equipped with a [[slugga]] and a [[choppa]], and can take additional weapons from the Nob Weapons list. Unfortunately, other than the options available to the Nob the Stormboyz themselves are rather lightly equipped, carrying only a Slugga, Choppa, stikkbombz, and a standard-issue [[Studded Armour|Ork t-shirt for armor.]] However, Stormboyz do have an advantage in that unlike [[Ork_Kommando|Kommandos]], a unit to which they are often compared, they can have a mob size of up to 30.

The Stormboyz' most important ability, and the real reason why you would take them, is because they can perform a Stormboyz Strike. Essentially, this is a Deep Strike that allows you to place the mob anywhere on the table that is not within 9" of the enemy at the end of ''any'' of your movement phases. There is nothing quite like thirty hooligans appearing exactly 9" away from the most vulnerable part of your opponent's army, ready to sink some sharp bits into some heads.
