[[Ork]] '''Deff Dreads''' (Death [[Dreadnought]]sDreadnoughts) are walking war machines, belching smoke as they charge across the battlefield. Because, in a similar way to [[Space MarineDreadnought]] Dreadnoughtss, a Deff Dread's pilot must be permanently wired into the machine, 'Dreads' require the skills of both a [[Mekboy]] and a [[Painboy]] to construct. Orks often volunteer to be wired into Dreads because it will in effect turn him into a massive, powerful and destructive machine.
This integration makes the machine very deadly, for these orky machines can move as if they were the pilot's own body. Ork Deff Dreads are loud, stompy, and shooty, three things that symbolize ork warfare and culture.
