Added an entry for Madboyz- a fun piece of fluff in the 4th ed codex.
Warbikers are armed with [[Slugga]]s and [[Choppa]]s and operate in Mobs of 3 to 12, which may include a [[Nob]].<sup>2k</sup>
===Madboyz===
Physically identical to other orks, madboyz are not quite the same in the head. Mobs of Madboyz are considered to be a great sign of luck and good fortune for an ork settlement or Waaagh! however their presence is not always appreciated due to their outlandish and idiotic behaviour. Within a settlement Madboyz may spend their time in self-constructed eccentric shanty towns apart from other orks. Here they randomly hold shouting matches at the worst possible moment and search for non-existent lost items in the dwellings of other orks- not wise by any standards given the territorial nature of the race. When they go to battle Madboyz often band together and provide an unintentional retinue for a wierdboy, dressed in bizarre clothing and wielding anything that takes their fancy, from unconventional choppas to rusty buckets filled with pterasquirrels. The unpredictable movements and behaviour of Madboyz has beaten the greatest tacticians as their anarchic unhinged nature means that they are just as likely to pull apart an enemy squad with their bare hands as they are to become engrossed in picking each others noses in the heat of battle.<sup>2l</sup>
