Nob
 This article is a stub. You can help 1d4chan by expanding it |
A Nob (an old word meaning a person of wealth or high social position) is an Ork noble that lies between a Warboss and an ordinary Ork boy. This means that they're plenty 'ard and plenty killy by surviving lots of battles and growing bigger and meaner by being dead killy by suicidally taking on things bigger than themselves. Nobs either tend to stick among themselves and form squads or look over other smaller Orks and make sure they're not mukkin' about.
On Tabletop, Nobs are costly, and really kinda useless without a certain combination: Bikes (Which makes them tougher to kill) and a Bosspole (For leader Nobs, who make the squad's morale far better) with Power Klaw to be the anti-MEQ weapon for Orks in combat. That or kitting them out in mega armour and sending them off to krump just about anything. Big choppas are only really useful against guard level mooks, and sluggas only exist to get an extra attack.
