That's a powerful tap ability, there.
The second ability has a bit of redundancy. It should probably read "{1}{r}, {t}: Another target creature gets +X/+0 and gains trample until end of turn, where X is the number of +1/+1 counters on Desert Nomad."

yeah, my original one was tap another creature you control, but I changed it. Forgot to change that.

Just stumbling about, I noticed this card. You do realize the Desert Nomad can target himself with the first ability? Seems counter intuitive... I don't know how many new players would pick up on that.

I'm not sure what the best answer for this is. My first reaction is that the Nomad should "tap target creature you don't control", but then you can't let it build up counters if your opponent doesn't control a creature (that you can target.) And that's a bad thing? Not sure. I suppose you could instead write "tap up to one target creature"... but that seems kind of icky here.
