8/8/2019 Grot Mega Tank

1/2

For some Grot would-be-meks, the vicarious (not to

mention often suicidal) joys of riding their very own

ramshackle Grot Tanks into battle is not enough. They crave

even bigger rigs and more importantly even more gunz! To

this end, some whose work escapes the notice of their Orkbosses for long enough come up with their best imitation of

a Battle Fortress, often cunningly constructed with a narrow

warren of internal compartments no Ork can squeeze

into! These Grot Mega-Tanks are even more dangerously

erratic than their smaller kin, but bristle with all the best

gear the Grots can scavenger or pilfer, and can often be

found running into battle alongside Mega-Tank mobs orloitering suspiciously around larger Ork tank squadrons.

2/2

All Aboard! The Grot Mega Tank is crammed to the

gunnels with so many crew (and their assorted unkies,

pets and hangers on) that theres no shortage of eager

hands to push buttons and pull triggers often too many.

At the start of the shooting phase roll 1D6. On the roll of

a 1 none of the tanks weapons may re this turn as a

ght breaks out inside the tank, on a 2+ the Mega Tankmay re its weapons, and may select a different targets for

each gun if it wishes!

Full Speed ahead!: To the crazed Grots piloting this

machine, the whole point is to hurtle around as fast

as possible using their over-powered engines, blasting

away as they go, not that this always goes to plan. Grot

Mega-Tanks tanks move 2D6 per turn as opposed to

the standard rules for vehicles, but can always re their

weapons when they do so. Alternately they can opt to go

at-out and roll 3D6 instead and re no weapons.

Rolling Scrap-Pile: Just like their smaller brethren, Grot

Mega-Tanks are moving conglomerations of all kinds of

scrap, old machinery and looted armour plates, not all

of it needed by any means! This can result in the enemy

haplessly blowing off useless junk from the Grot Mega

Tank without actually stopping it. As a result a Grot

Mega-Tank has an invulnerable save of 5+, except against

Ordnance and Destroyer weapons, which are powerful

enough to blast them to bits.

Doza Blade:Grot Mega-Tanks may re-roll failed Dangerous

Terrain tests.

Boom Kannisters: Grot Mega Tanks are equipped with two

shrapnel bombs mounted on the sides which the Grots

delight in ring off at anybody that gets too close, (and if

a few of their own side get splattered across the battleeldalong with the enemy, its all in fun!) Exactly where the

Grots got the idea for this remains a mystery, but thanks

to the popularity of the loud bangs involved, their use has

spread.

The Grot Mega-Tank has two of these one-use weapons,

one mounted on each side of the vehicle. They count as

Defensive weapons but are red in a straight line and their

target point for scatter is always their listed maximum

range.
