I don\'t have the codex, but Army Builder EX shows 5 as the minimum number of models in the unit (either as 5 boyz or 4 boyz + Nob.)

As I remember it a unit of strormboyz can contain between 10 and 30 stormboyz one of witch can be upgraded to a nob.

Pretty sure that it is 5, so you could have 4 and a Nob as hakoMike says.

In a game you should never really take squads bigger than 12 in my opinion because they can\'t mob up, so if they break you are pretty screwed and loose a big unit. Shouldn\'t take less than 8 either, because the likelihood of them passing their power of the Waagh! test gets much lower.

This is straight from the Codex

Stormboyz Elites

Mob The mob consists of between five and twentyOrk Stormboyz

WeaponsSluggas and Choppas

Options The entire mob may be equipped with frag stikkbombz at +1 pt per model and krak stikkbombz at +2 points per model

Character For an additional cost of 11 points one of the Stormboyz may be upgraded to a Nob. The Nob may be given any equipment from the ork armoury, except mega armour.

One will be closing his eyes and blocking his ears as a grot lights his, and i havbent figured out the last 2

That\'s just not right. A nob is an upgrade that is cheaper than a standard Stormboy (+11 points, rather than 15) so it makes no sense. I haven\'t seen whatever chapter approved you are talking about. Do you mean that you must have a minimum of 6 models in the squad, because one has to be upgraded to a nob leaving 5 normal boyz too? Again, that isn\'t how I would interpret it at all.
