==Overview==
A variant of a standard [[Battlewagon]], a basic gunwagon consists of a powerful engine and a mounted [[Big Shoota]] on a chassis. A gunwagon only has a seat for the driver, but hand holds are provided to transport Orks over short distances.{{Fn|1}} Much like other Ork vehicles, the gunwagon is a highly modifiable platform, and can be armed with a [[Zzap Gun]]{{Fn|2}}, a [[Kannon]]{{Fn|3}}, or a quad of [[Flakka-Dakka Gun|Flak guns]]{{Fn|4}} while still retaining its transport capabilities. In addition, the gunwagon can be up-armoured to protect the driver and gunner, and also mounts an extra [[Big Shoota]].{{Fn|5}} The main weakness of a Gunwagon is, should it be hit by the enemy fire, the massive amount of ammunition within will often detonate spectacularly. The Orks see this less of a drawback and more as an opportunity to take a few enemies with them.{{Fn|7}}
