The '''Warp Dekapitator''' is an invention of [[Da Boffin]] (a [[Mek]] of the [[Tekwaaagh!]]). When activated on a ship's [[Warp Engine]], it causes a "katastrophic warp implosion," causing the ship and all nearby vessels to travel back to the origin point of its last [[Warp jump]].{{Fn|1}}
Da Boffin used the Warp Dekapitator on an invaded [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] warship and, as he had hoped, the device caused{{Fn|2}} both the warship and the [[Tekwaaagh!]]'s [[Ork Fleet]] to travel back to the [[Forge World]] [[Hephaesto]].{{Fn|1}} However, the Warp Dekapitator has its drawbacks, as its activation can cause solid objects to merge into each other. This was the case{{Fn|2}} when the Tekwaaagh! arrived at Hephaesto{{Fn|1}} and Da Boffin discovered that some of of the Mechanicus warship's crew had merged into a giant blob that was hungry for [[Ork]] flesh.{{Fn|2}}
