Orks entitled '''Nobz''', (Believed to be short for a parody of the Gothic word 'Nobles' but pronounced by the guttural Orkish throats as 'Knobs'), are the larger [[Ork]] [[Ork Boyz|boyz]] who are still smaller than the [[Warboss]] of a tribe, but are able to exert their authority upon their peers through their sheer size and commanding, if brutish, nature. They usually get the best pick of the weapons and armour whenever the mob comes across anything worth taking. Nobs are usually found barking orders to mobs of boyz, but its not uncommon to find them in elite squads of their own, or forming the bodyguard for the Warboss, where they will probably in squads of [[Meganobz]].<sup>1-p.248</sup>
==Meganobz==
[[Ork]] '''Nobz''' who value the thrill of close combat often become meganobs. They are recognised by their bulky armour they wear into battle, which they call [[Mega Armour]], and by a dogged belief of their own invulnerability. A suit of mega armour is compromised of extremely thick metal plates welded onto a piston-driven exoskeleton. It incorporates several engines and sub-motors that give the wearer tremendous strength. A multiple barrelled and personalised [[shoota]] hardwired in to one arm and a deadly [[Power Klaw]] on the other.{{Fn|1}}
