Grot Mega Tank
Grot Mega Tanks are heavy tanks used by Gretchin (or "Grot") hordes within Ork armies.[1]
Description
For some Grot would-be Meks, the joys of riding in ramshackle Grot Tanks are not enough and they crave even bigger rigs and more gunz. To that end, the most ambitious Grots build their best imitations of Ork Battle Fortresses and these Grot Mega Tanks are even more dangerously erratic than their smaller kin.[2]
They represent the pinnacle of Gretchin tank technology, an overpowering war machine that drives all before it in a storm of scrap and destruction. Hammered together out of junk, spare Mekboys, unbridled Grot enthusiasm[1] and the best gear they can scavenge or pilfer[2], Grot Mega Tank represents the culmination of the Gretchin battlefield madness that has become known as "Grotzkrieg."[1] When they are unleashed in battle, the Grot Mega Tanks have been the doom of many of the Orks' unsuspecting foes.[2]
Grot Mega Tanks have a Dozer Blade and two heavy turrets, each armed with a selection of twin-linked Big Shootas, Skorchas, Grotzookas, Rokkit Launchers or Kustom Mega Blastas. They also have three light turrets, each armed with a single Big Shoota, Skorcha, Grotzooka, Rokkit Launcher or Kustom Mega Blasta. A Grot Mega Tank may also be equipped with a pintle-mounted Shoota or a Wrecking Ball. Weapons are aimed with the help of a Spota.[3]
