Trukks, Stompas, Gorkonauts, Kill Rigs – we have no idea how the Orks make them work, but we do know they are tough and with the newst addition of Wurrboys and a few Tramplasquigs, quite a bit weird.Support the show

Starting point is 00:00:12 Welcome everyone to another episode of the Adeptus Ridiculous podcast. My name is D.K. Diamantis. My co-host is Bricky. We have a super special guest host, Keriath. But before we get into that, if you enjoyed today's episode, head on over to patreon.com slash adeptis ridiculous and consider supporting us. You get access to the Discord, bloopers if they happen, HD Post are at the $15 tier, all that great stuff.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Patreon.com slash adeptis ridiculous. Bricky, tell about the other stuff. Every single episode, you get more and more complacent with the things you need to do. But okay. What? Go check out the Orchidate.com, the merchandise site down in the description. There's great merch. There's our new little ridiculous tea and hoodie.
Starting point is 00:00:59 It's great. There's also lots of the other little guy stuff, including posters of them. And other hoodies amongst these. It's very, very good. Lots of different kinds of merch. Good you have the merch. Love the merch, baby. It's all about the merch.
Starting point is 00:01:11 And our book club is done from Day of Ascension. Gene Steeler Colts are badass. But now we are reading a new one. We are reading Bloodlines. A brand, a Warhammer noir crime drama. So check that one out. We will have that recorded probably sometime in November. Probably.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Like maybe negative November ish, right? Should I make the Man of the Walls joke again, or is that played out? I mean, all of your jokes are played out. guess you might as well. You are very mean. There's some animosity going on this time round that I don't think I've heard before. It feels like it's getting more personal. Also, are you allowed to say that the man in the walls joke is played out when there's
Starting point is 00:01:58 literal little guy posters? Is that not like a double standard thing? That's a great point there, Kiriath. Counterpoint. Man in the walls does not make us hella. cash. That's fair. That's fair, actually, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:15 I don't know how you would monetize man in the walls. Like, it would just be creepy having a poster of that. You know what? I disagree. I disagree. Let's go. You and us, we do a collab project. We put you
Starting point is 00:02:28 behind a wall, carbonite style. And we have us shepherding you onto the black ships. That's the next merch. We'll make a poster of it. We'll split the profits, batta bing, then we can keep it going.
Starting point is 00:02:44 I only agree to this if it makes us hella cash, as you said. Hella. We are California. Yeah, yeah. We are. I'm on board. Why not? Hell, yeah. Let's do it. Let's just go for it. All right. All right. What? All right, what?
Starting point is 00:03:07 Sorry, uh, the, um, there was a smack on the bottom of my desk because of my fat, erect cocks seeing this new goddamn Rogel Doorn tank. Am I right, Kiryov? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's right. It's made it into the... It'll date it somewhat, but I don't care. It's the best news that we've had 40K-wise, I think, since
Starting point is 00:03:25 the last Imperial Guard announcement. So, it's the best. And a new tank. I mean, I mean, they've named it after Rogaldorn, which in my opinion is a mistake. But apart from that, apart from that, amazing. So I assume you're going to tell me what makes this tank so great in today's episode since Kyrioth is kind of like the tank Dreadnought, you know, night person.
Starting point is 00:03:50 I'm assuming is that our theme today is the Rogel Dorn Tank or just tanks in general? Although we've done a general tank video, haven't we? We have done the Imperial Galantans, yeah. Yeah, and also this tank literally came out this morning. We couldn't have planned for that. That was just a lucky coincidence. Oh, okay. Although it still fits, it does kind of fit, because you could, if you're being properly,
Starting point is 00:04:15 if you are a person of science, you could suggest that what we're going to cover today is basically every single tank or vehicle in Warhammer 40,000. To some extent. Wait, what? That is true. Really? But also what? All of them. Because we're going to talk about orc vehicles and every vehicle is in a little.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Let's fucking go. It's an orc vehicle episode. Ah, no wonder. No wonder she's so happy about today. I knew Shai had a goddamn hand in this. Yeah, no wonder she was actually early today. It doesn't make sense now. Wow, the call out.
Starting point is 00:04:54 The call out there. Yeah, there's a lot of orc vehicles. We're not going to cover absolutely every single one of them, because when me and and I were talking about this, I then suddenly, remembered that there are so many of these that, you know, there might be jokes about making four or five or nine or ten hour podcast, but you could probably squeeze a good four hours out of just what the orcs have got before we talk about them stealing other people's stuff. Because over the years, they've had a lot of things.
Starting point is 00:05:27 One of them is called the bowel burner, by the way, as in bowels, as in that, yep. Oh, no. So you can, you know, it really gets, really gets in there. There's a lot of weird stuff with orcs, but luckily there's also quite a lot of things that you could simply say is a car with a gun on it, pretty much. There's quite a lot of of orc vehicles that are just some form of car with gun. So we can kind of gloss over a few of them as well. Yeah. Whenever I imagine like an orc vehicle, I just, just the most rough shod looking scrap metal.
Starting point is 00:06:06 slap-dashed thing put together possible. I don't imagine anything elegant, just too many guns that make no sense and just scrap metal everywhere that really, it shouldn't work. I must admit, I fought an orc player at my tournament this last weekend,
Starting point is 00:06:28 and he brought a couple vehicles. He was playing Goffs, and you know, Goffs is the best, as it is written on Gasco Throx, Raka's actual data sheet. And I'm curious if we're going to be covering things like the kill rigs and stuff, because the kill rig is a, it's a very interesting vehicle.
Starting point is 00:06:51 They've definitely gone off the deep end recently. I'll give them that. There was a point there where, I mean, we can name a few of them right now, things like the Boondacka Snazwagon, the custom booster blaster, the, even, I'd say even the Rucker truck, big buggy, some amazing and also terrible names as well. Some of them look very uniform now. There's a few of the more recent ones that have lost a bit of that, that like mad science that orcs have got going on, but then they also bring out things like the megatrack scrapped jet.
Starting point is 00:07:25 So what they do is they take a plane that has crashed, then they stick a giant drill on the front of it, stick wheels and tracks on the rest of it, and drive it at people face first as fast as they can possibly go. So if an ork pilot is downed with his plane, it's easier and quicker to just bolt a load of wheels to it and just send it straight back in. And that's what they do
Starting point is 00:07:47 and they use it to ram into people. And that's the kind of madness that I'm here for for orcs. I vaguely remember us talking about that and thinking that was just a wild idea that if you survive the plane crash, you just pop on a couple of wheels and right into, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Oh, those are actually really cool looking. Shai's posting a bunch of the images. Mecca. They're very cool. The mega scrap jet, mega something scrap jet. They're very, they look very Mad Max the vehicles, actually. Yeah, I feel like they took heavy like Mad Max inspiration for the last batch. Although there's always been a little bit of that, like even with the older model.
Starting point is 00:08:25 So like, well, some of them. There is one called the War Track Scorcher, which is kind of fallen out of favor now. It's a super old model that I think was released with Gorka, So like going way, way back. And that is a weird mix of like Mad Max tracked trike and just full on World War II flame tank carrying a canister of like gas behind you. Okay. I vaguely remember the carrying the gas behind you, but I think that was an imperial thing,
Starting point is 00:09:00 wasn't it? Like a flamer or something? Like a mobile melta that needed to carry the gasoline behind it? Oh, oh my God, that horrible thing. Yes. Yes, that awful Jesus That's what that reminds you of
Starting point is 00:09:11 Yeah Yes, I remember that That thing was so awful Would you see that was called Would you see that was called Currioth with the grot So this is the war track scorcher And it is just a war track
Starting point is 00:09:23 With a flamethrower built into it With I believe If I remember correctly There is a grot In the turret That aims it And fires it
Starting point is 00:09:34 Whilst the orc drives around I got to admit The funniest part about that isn't just how goofy it is. It's the fact that it's running with three sets of wheels. You have a front bike wheel, a tread, treads, and then like those giant, like, the giant like T-Mobile, whatever they're called, the old cars. Like, it's so silly.
Starting point is 00:09:57 I also got to make sure that if an orc is riding in the front there, it's got to be a short one. You can't have a tall one. Otherwise, he's going to run into some trouble. That top knot is gone. The second that they fired. that, that top knot is no longer attached to his head. It's gone. It's burnt off immediately.
Starting point is 00:10:11 That hair squig is dead. The grog doesn't get suspension. Which does, yeah, which is a squig now that we think about it, so that top knot is a squig and so it's killing his own squig. He's got a dot. He's got to really scrunch in there to make sure his hair squeak doesn't die.
Starting point is 00:10:27 It just gets worse than more you look at it. Like, the thing with pulling the, like, the fuel tank behind it always makes me laugh, but I just love the fact that there's a grot on there as well. Because that guy has no suspension at all. The bike's got suspension, the tracks has got suspension. He's got metal wheels attached to a metal frame
Starting point is 00:10:46 with explosive liquid underneath his legs. He's not going to be having the best day, although he does look like he's enjoying himself, to be fair. He does. I was about to say, I think he'll be having a very good day, but in his own way. He's absolutely loving it. He's having a good time, yep.
Starting point is 00:11:06 I was also a little bit unfair. I mentioned earlier as well, the Rucker Truck Squigbuggy. I kind of class that as just a vehicle with a gun on it. I should have said that it is a vehicle with a gun on it, but it does also fire squigs. So it's like, it's a little bit of one, a little bit of another. They just have a big bunch of squigs on board, and they have a squig launcher that they use to fire squigs at the enemy.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Of course, you've got to have that, right? You got to have a squid launcher. If you look at it, you can see the squig launcher. Swig barely poking his head out of the yellow tube right there in the picture. He's right there. Oh, yeah. Eye in it. He's like, I'm coming.
Starting point is 00:11:47 Just wait in for his time. The rocket truck squid buggies were actually a ludicrously overpowered unit for a while in orcs. They're very cool. Yeah, they used to be able to flabbed their squigs with their, and I quote, heavy squig launcha. up and over, like, cover. So you couldn't, you couldn't protect yourself from an onslaught of, like, nine buggies, just pummeling you with squigs. This is an endless amount of squigs.
Starting point is 00:12:21 I feel like the whole, like, squig thing, it's, there's definitely, they've definitely expanded what squigs are capable of, it feels like, because there is another vehicle that was, like, part of that big batch of October vehicles they did a few years back, which is the shock jump dragster, which has, a dedicated targeting squig. Yes. Oh yeah. I forgot about the targeting squigs. It's great idea.
Starting point is 00:12:46 The shock jump dragster is actually the one that was in Brutal Cunnen that they teleported next to the Warlord Titan with. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a great idea for a vehicle. Yeah, yeah. Did you read Brutal Cunin, Kiroff? I've not got round to it yet. It's on my list.
Starting point is 00:13:05 But I've, uh, I'm working away towards it. because it's orcs and orcs are the best. I love orcs. Everybody does. It's got some pretty good moments. Shai is reminding us that this is not a squid buggy episode.
Starting point is 00:13:19 What else have you got, Kariot? Well, we do have a couple of grop-based things that we need to cover. There's an honorable mention here, okay? This is not an official thing, technically, kind of. There is a games workshop employee called John Ashton,
Starting point is 00:13:35 and he came up with something called the Grot Track Bike, which is literally like a quarter of a chimera, so just one of the tracks, that's been turned into a Grot motorbike, basically, which is the best idea I've ever seen. What the fuck is that? That is incredible. I mean, that's not even really a motor. Well, I mean, yeah, sure. I guess. That's the, that is one of the most orcic. That is one of the most orcings. things I've ever seen. It's so good. It's just got, it's got a big shooter and it's got some, some bike teeth on the front, the ones that you got on the war bikes. Just, and that's it, that's the whole thing, just a grot with a single track, going around the battlefield,
Starting point is 00:14:22 probably failing to shoot anyone, but it's such a good idea. So weird. That's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, exactly what I said. Too shy earlier today. So orc. That might be the dumbest thing I've seen. Which makes it perfect orc. That might be, like, we've covered some interesting vehicles before, that might take the cake. That might be the dumbest thing I have ever seen in 40K.
Starting point is 00:14:54 And that's a shock. But it's so good, though. That's the thing. It's stupid, but it works because it's orcs. And of course they do that. It's great. You can't help but love that. It's just like, I know that piece.
Starting point is 00:15:07 I built so many tanks before in my time. I know exactly what that piece is. It's just one section of a fucking Lehman or chimera, and the Grot just took it, and he's doing donuts. He's rifted. God, fucking damn it. I love it. I absolutely love it.
Starting point is 00:15:25 It does go perfectly with the Grot tank as well. The Grot tank, I think, is one of the most underrated orc vehicles. Like, everyone should have at least one Grot tank, and hardly anyone has them. It is literally what it sounds like. It is just a tiny, tiny tank piloted by a grot, and it's the best. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:15:50 They look ramshackle and borderline useless because they are minuscule, as you'd expect, because grots are tiny. I mean, look, also, is that not the cutest little guy? he's just a little guy he's just a little guy he's just a little tank you know it's just a little guy little tank's not a big tank
Starting point is 00:16:13 he's a little tank so we'll stop here before she we'll stop here before she cuts it from the fucking episode yeah puts it up as a Patreon exclusive gotta get it in where you can the little guy left
Starting point is 00:16:27 it was smooth well it was the coughing you know took away from the smoothness but other than that, there we go. Okay, sorry good. Sorry, these are very small tanks indeed. Yeah, Shai's got some really well-painted
Starting point is 00:16:42 grot tanks, though. Those are, those are... Yeah, those are awesome. I don't know why. I don't know why they remind me of this. This is a reference. Did you ever see the film Batteries Not Included? No.
Starting point is 00:16:56 No? I think I have, no. So there's this film about, like, it's like a really weird, convoluted plot. But basically there's these little alien robot things that fly that like build themselves out of scrap or something and they befriend at like an apartment block of people that are holding out against their apartment block being demolished or something. It's really weird. But for some reason, the little got tanks remind me of those every single time. And I think
Starting point is 00:17:24 I might be the only person who's seen that film. And so no one, no one ever agrees with me. Ever. It never happens. I mean, if they're just like, you know, robots that are made out of scrap metal, I mean, that's basically what orc stuff is. They're just a bunch of shit. It feels like it's right there, but no one else goes with me on it, which is, which makes me sad. It becomes slightly different and more appropriate, though. To be fair, the little, the little grot tanks, they are cool, they are awesome, but they are not quite as awesome as the grot megatang. The megatank.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Because the grot megatang is. I think Shai has one of these. It's so good. It's, I think it might be one of my favorites, just overall. It looks like a battleship on land. It's tracked. It's also, because it's a grot, megatank, basically the size of a normal tank. So, mega's in the name.
Starting point is 00:18:19 It's not in the way it looks or works or, I mean, look at that. It's so good. That is, that is a mega tank for sure. No two ways about it. No, if, ands, or buts about it. That is a mega tank. I love it. I absolutely love it. It's a mega tank, but it's also just a normal tank because it's for grots. I'm assuming that those are your mega tanks, right, Shai?
Starting point is 00:18:49 Because they look fucking dope. I love the water across the front. Yeah. Everything else being like kind of a dusty metal. that's all grimy and then that just bright red wah yeah it looks great absolutely solid those are those are things that I hope
Starting point is 00:19:10 Ford World never gets rid of Ford World have done a lot of purging over the years of various kits if they ever got rid of those I'd be I'd be really really sad I'd be properly gutted yeah it just wouldn't be fair I must admit I'm looking as you go through these tanks I'm looking at their data sheets
Starting point is 00:19:28 because I'm just curious and I just love seeing the Grot Mega Tank is equipped with three big shooters, two twin big shooters, and one shooter. It's just so many shooters. It's just like three big shooters, two twin big shooters, and one shooter. Just one regular shooter. Yeah. You could, you could equip it with a grot zuka.
Starting point is 00:19:51 You know, you can get with a grot zuka or a scorcha if you feel like it. It's such, I love how the movement is also six plus D6 inches because the grots don't have work together properly. Yeah, it's unreliable, so sometimes it moves 12, sometimes it moves 7, it's just like, I don't fucking know. Very ork. Very org. I love it.
Starting point is 00:20:11 I love it. The absolute best. The absolute best. It's so, so good. You know what? I tell you what, we should shift over to something that I wasn't going to bring up until later, but it's worth it because of how unreliable it is, because I feel like this is a perfect segue to go into,
Starting point is 00:20:29 not into, like, super heavy. well actually this is a super heavy but it's so badly made it's the kill crusher and it has a significant chance of the main armament just failing to work repeatedly to the point where i have also got the stats for it as well bear in mind this is several editions ago so it's like front armour 14 etc this is the kill crusher and when you fire the main gun, the Crusher cannon, you have to roll a D6, because it's got different types of ammo, so you pick what you want to shoot, like you pick what you want to do with it. The special rules are that when the Crusher cannons Grot-served auto-loaded gubbins are a miracle of orky design, they don't always work as they should. Every time the cannon is fired, declare which kind of shell you're trying to use, and roll a D-6. If you roll a one, then roll again on the following table. One to two. DUD. The gun,
Starting point is 00:21:31 jams, the Grots get caught in the gears or the elastic brakes, no shot is fired this turn. Three to five, you mean this one? The cannon fires a boom shell regardless of the type the orc commander is bellowing for, because Grots love the boom, and on a six, the shell is fitted in backwards or something equally catastrophic occurs, the kill crusher suffers an automatic glancing hit and no shells fired. So no matter what you do when you're firing the Crusher cannon, It's just going to go wrong. Yep. It's not good.
Starting point is 00:22:06 I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I won't make this clear. There are a large variance of different kinds of shells for this cannon. Oh, yeah. But on a one to two, it duds. On a six, it duds. And in a three to five, it only fires the boom shell.
Starting point is 00:22:24 So it can literally never not fire the boom shell. Why the fuck do they have all these other shells? It literally can never fire non-booth shell. It's only going to buy that boon shell, if even that. So good. It's so good. It's like they literally wrote rules for the other shells that it cannot fire in game.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Yep, it's got a tank hammer shell for taking out tanks, but you're never going to get that because it'll only ever fire the boom shell if it fires at all or if it doesn't blow itself up trying to fire the one shell that you didn't ask for. It's amazing. Oh, that's great. It's the dumbest thing I have ever read. That is, that is, I mean, it, it fits the orcs, though, as far as, like, if you want your rules to seem like they're canon to the faction you're playing, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, I, I love it so much. It's one of those, it's one of those models where, you know, you know, you buy it knowing that it's never gonna be worth it on the table, but, but, but the story you'll get out of it, the games that you'll have completely failing to, you're, completely failing to, you know, fire anything or just blowing yourself up. It's perfect.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Should I say? It made it canon in real life by making the model itself. So horribly made out a shitty resin. Building one was an insane ordeal and it kept falling apart and bits wouldn't fit together to the point where they removed it from sale forever. Wow. Way to go with the realism there, GW. It looks like a cool tank from the picture that's shown here though. It does. It's ridiculous. I don't understand how it works at all. It kind of looks like the tracks are toned by the wheel at the top, which is powered by a piston that goes into a back motor. Is that a steam engine on the back of it? Like, is that how it moves?
Starting point is 00:24:15 Yeah. I've never properly looked at the back of this thing. And now I am, I'm just like, what a disaster. What an absolute disaster from start to finish. What an orc vehicle. What an org vehicle. Amazing. I can say, that's so ork.
Starting point is 00:24:32 So on this slightly more reliable note, there are also things like the big track, which is just a gun platform effectively. So there is a truck which has got the tracks on the back and wheels on the front. There's also the war truck, which is just a standard transport. But the big track is a heavy vehicle,
Starting point is 00:24:50 and they take it and they stick things like super cannons on it or zap guns or kill cannons or flak guns. and I think it might be one of the best-looking models that that Forge World has for Orks It's so mean What the hell is that got? That looks like a beam-blade cannon actually That's been retrofitted
Starting point is 00:25:16 Look at that thing Holy shit It's awesome It's got like a big cannon on the bottom It's got that big turret cannon. Oh man, that's... It's like a piece of artillery. Yeah, it's basically an earth shaker cannon, but shorter ranged.
Starting point is 00:25:38 So they'll take an earth shaker and mess with it and make it not as good because it's orcs. But even just like the engine on that thing, it looks like it's got some sort of jet intake on the front. It just looks super aggressive. Damn. That is, that is so cool. What is that?
Starting point is 00:25:58 What is it? It's a squiggith tusk? Is that what it says? Oh yeah, some kind of engine. I thought that was a cannon on the front, honestly. I didn't realize that was an engine. I mean, it was just a big, like, you know. I wouldn't put it past them, to be fair. Like, I feel like a cannonball in there or something. Yeah, if there's any faction that would just stick a giant cannon directly in the front of their vehicle, it's got up with the oaks. Yeah, and they'd make it work. Yeah, that's the one.
Starting point is 00:26:24 The only thing that I dislike about the big track is that it makes things like the battle wagon not look as cool because the battle wagon is otherwise quite a cool vehicle but it's just not as mean as like a big track and I have to admit I'm a little bit of when I started playing orcs in like third edition if I remember correctly there wasn't a battle wagon model for quite a while it just wasn't a thing.
Starting point is 00:26:56 You made your own out of land raiders and rhinos and chimeras and leman russes and stuff. And so a standardised battle wagon I've never been a fan of. It is a cool looking vehicle. And it is ridiculous because you can stick multiple cannons on it. It's absolutely covered in shooters and big shooters.
Starting point is 00:27:14 There's a bunch of additional things you can give it. If you're not using it for full-on transport, it becomes a gun wagon. So you've got that massive turret on the back with a smaller turret on top just because more turrets is always good
Starting point is 00:27:29 having things like the death roller on the front. It's a great vehicle but I've always been like if I ever did orcs again I would make my own. I would have to make my own. Is this the bone breaker
Starting point is 00:27:45 or is this the battle wagon? Yeah so that's the battle wagon. The battle wagon, okay. Yeah. I dealt with I dealt with one of those with the bone breaker over the weekend it rolled up and it looked at
Starting point is 00:28:00 10 cultists and was like and I all died yeah it's quite good it's fun it's a really fun it's like a really fun stat blocking stuff but it's it's just
Starting point is 00:28:16 I want to see people make their own because I'm a bit of a stickler but just for that not for anything else everything else is fine. Oh yeah, there is the lifter dropper. So that's, I mean, yeah, there's good things, there's good stuff, but I'm a bit of a stickler. Whoa. Oh my God. That looks like, that looks like the fucking like magnets Mr. Magnets Mr. White. Hell yeah. What the fuck is that? It's such a good name for a weapon as well. It pretty much describes what it does. You can, you can, you can guess from from it being called the lifter dropper, what what it's deal is.
Starting point is 00:28:51 Can you get grabbed people and slams them or something? It's all like weird, weird, like, tractor beam gravity nonsense. Yeah. There we go. So the massive tractor beam can lift enemy vehicles or track them through the air and drop them, usually on top of enemy troops or even other vehicles. It's ridiculous. I think you can also stick it on a stomper as well, I think.
Starting point is 00:29:20 Wow. that's that is a hell of a thing it's mad I like yeah usually enemy vehicles see a rival orc that you just don't like and that to me that's peak battle wagon
Starting point is 00:29:36 that's the one you want that's absolutely the one that you should have hell yeah absolutely good lord that's almost as big as the tank it's like it's longer isn't it it's actually longer than the vehicle it's mounted on And the fact that it's being pointed and aimed and operated by a dude sitting on a small chair right at the back.
Starting point is 00:29:59 He's like 20 feet back. How is he aiming that? So good. So good. Orcs, man. They have the best vehicles in the game, especially because every other vehicle is also an orc vehicle. So they're really onto a winner. There's nothing that they can't take in some way, shape, form and make it look cooler than it did before.
Starting point is 00:30:25 I was just about to bring up the killburster as well actually. Come on, Kerry. Killburster. Shy is the one running this episode. Oh, yeah. Come on, Kiry. I'll talk about this orc vehicle. I'm like this orc vehicle.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Shy is salivating at this episode, yeah. There are two varieties of these. There's the killburster and the kill blaster. Let's go. That's a big boy. That's about what I expected to see. Yep, it's, it's a, funny enough, a heavy tank, massive, with just a gigantic cannon on the front for blowing up. Anything that's remotely fortified, just anything that's slightly armored, it goes after, it's also one of the coolest Forge World models just ever.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Again, super aggressive. Like, it just looks, it looks mean and like it's made of scrap, but it's also, so, so. Oh, good. Yeah, there we go. Next to a rhino. A looted rhino. Wait, look at the amount of guns poking out of the front. Yeah, that's...
Starting point is 00:31:31 One, two, three, four, five. Jesus. So that's the kill-blaster variant. So the burster is for fortifications and enemy vehicles, and the burster is... So the burster is for fortifications, and the blaster is for everything else. They just stick a bunch of shooters and rattler cannons and normal cannons,
Starting point is 00:31:50 and it's collectively referred to as the gigashooter. The gigas shooter. As well it should be. Also, I love how you say, oh, it looks aggressive. Like, what orc thing doesn't look aggressive? That's like their peak aesthetic is just aggression. So I see you say that, you say that, but there are, especially when you go back a few years, there's some questionable stuff that doesn't necessarily look aggressive as it just looks
Starting point is 00:32:20 a bit dopey. Like the war track, for instance, we saw the war track with the scorcher on the top. The war track and the war buggy, they both look... Those were super aggressive,
Starting point is 00:32:30 that's true. They're very much like of their time. They haven't aged quite as well. And then when you see stuff like that, it's like they come from a different faction,
Starting point is 00:32:40 to be honest. Modern orc stuff is, I suppose, a lot different, isn't it? Yeah. And I just, I mean, there's also stuff
Starting point is 00:32:47 that they just don't make anymore, which makes me that is just as good as things like the killboats and the killblaster. So the battle fortress is one of my favorites as well, because it is a massive super heavy battlewagon effectively, but it's just covered in guns. It is absolutely huge as well. So it's one of the ones that because it was in like Imperial armour and stuff,
Starting point is 00:33:15 it has some actual like, some actual specifications. So it's like, it weighs 200 tons, for instance. It also allegedly, wild. Apparently it can go 55 kilometers an hour on road, which is terrifying when you look at it. Wait, what's the last one shy post? Is that the same thing? Is that the same kind of tank?
Starting point is 00:33:41 So there's a few different versions. There's the Battle Fortress, which is the first one that was posted. Then there is the Flack. Battle Fortress, which has got like anti-air stuff on the back and a battle cannon on the front. And then the bottom one is a skull hammer Battle Fortress, where they literally just take a bane blade off the Imperial Guard
Starting point is 00:34:04 and stick a like comedically large cannon on top of it. I love that one. That was the best. That last one, the best. It's ridiculous. It's absolutely... Adeptus ridiculous. Oh, he didn't. Get your bingo cards out.
Starting point is 00:34:20 One little guy reference. One single little guy. One adept is ridiculous. One of shy getting mad if we don't talk about the orc vehicles. Line baller. Perfect. Bingo. To be honest, the skull hammer cannon is basically just the same as the Bainblade's main cannon.
Starting point is 00:34:41 But it's the orcs, so it usually looks bigger and more stupid. I love that. I love your... So good. So cool. So good. Yeah, yeah. The fortress is pretty nice too, with that steamroller attachment with the spikes on it.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Yeah, I think the death roll on the front really, it just makes it look properly mad max. I'm really sad they don't make them anymore. They don't make death rollers anymore? Oh, they make like death rollers for the battle wagon, but not like the battle fortress as a model just doesn't exist. which is a shame because it's awesome that is a shame what they do still make though which you can I believe you can go and buy this right now
Starting point is 00:35:27 if you wanted to you could get yourself a squigoth or a gargantuan squigoth I know these because not every not every orc vehicle needs to be an actual vehicle you've got to be able to get in a bit of I don't know what you class them as cavalry I don't know probably probably not cavalry actually
Starting point is 00:35:45 Mounts? Mounds. A mouse? That sounds good, yeah. It's basically just effectively a dinosaur with a castle built on the back of it. That's the only way I can think to describe. Oh, it's those things. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:58 I remember hearing about these guys. I remember liking the Squigoths quite a bit. They were also in Brutal Cunning. There has the Hauda. Yeah, that's the Hauda. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And they topple them all the time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Yeah, the Squigoff, I think. That is a fierce beast. Look at that thing. That is. Jesus Christ. I think that's the gargantuan squigoth. I think the squigoth itself is just one really big round squig. I'm pretty sure of it.
Starting point is 00:36:27 So there's like, there's big squigoths and gargantuan ones, and that's the, yeah, I think that is the gargantuan. That's the giant squig? Okay, my bad. Yeah, the big squigoth is, it's still pretty big, but it's got the cannon on the front. It doesn't have like the side sections for the fortress they've built on the top of it.
Starting point is 00:36:55 That massive squig is amazing. That is a big squig. Yeah, the giant squid. Let's go. Big boy. Are those eyes on the side? What are those blue things? No, because the eyes are on the front.
Starting point is 00:37:07 What are all those little blue orbs that are looked? Like, can it eject those out of its skin? Don't try to understand. it. It's a... Mushroo stuff. It's too much. Yeah, it's weird shit. I don't know. Too confusing. All right, all right, all right.
Starting point is 00:37:24 They look like eyes. They really do. Although it has already got six eyes. I think it's... I think it's set for eyes. Yeah. Yeah. It looks like little D20s. It actually does.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Oh, no. Now I'm not going to be able to unsee that. I'm just going to keep seeing it every time I see that. Yeah, they kind of do look like dice, don't they? Oh, no. to seduce the squig. Natural 20 gets put in jar. That's not, no. That is, that is yes.
Starting point is 00:38:02 We're moving on. Let's talk about the megadred. I want to get away from that as quickly as possible. Yeah, that's like about that megadred. So there's a couple of different varieties. There's the mega dread and the mecca dread. And both of them are what they sound like. Massive dreadnoughts.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Bigger than standard-alk dreadnoughts. They make killer cans look really tiny and just really ramshackled pieces of nonsense. The Mega Dread is like, it's weirdly good. Like it's weirdly well-made. And it's absolutely covered in guns. So that's the Mecca Dread. And the mega dread is the either of those. It's great.
Starting point is 00:38:53 Look at the God. What in God's name. I feel like you might have shown us these in the dreadnought episode. That being said, they're still so cool. Yeah. Even if I've seen them before, they're so awesome. They look like deaf dreads. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:09 But these are like the big deaf dreads. Yeah. They're so sick, though. massive. They're so good. But I'm using those as like a bit of a springboard to get onto some of the walking, some of the walking orc vehicles, because they've
Starting point is 00:39:24 got Gorkanort and the Morkanaut which are both ridiculous transports. So everyone else, they go for something with wheels, something with tracks, something that is, I mean maybe a bit of legs if you're feeling adventurous for some of the
Starting point is 00:39:40 weirder types of rhino, for instance. But the orcs go for a giant walking orc with a massive like shield section across the stomach where all the boys huddle together. Oh yeah, well that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Yeah, you got a massive shield. Of course they're going to huddle up with that, yeah. It's such a weird idea for a transport. I'm still not sure how I feel about them, if I'm honest, because it, I don't know, they've already got battle wagons
Starting point is 00:40:10 and stuff. It feels weird they depart and go for a legged creature. But on the other hand, it is like a giant orc striding across the battlefield shooting people. So I can see why they like it. We got to think about the most important thing, which is that it can, without, like, treads are fun and all that, but it's far more fun to step on things. That is true. And orcs would much rather prefer.
Starting point is 00:40:35 You're thinking too hard about this. You're putting too much effort into it. Yeah, look at all the shooters on its arm too. all the DACA you can get out of that thing. You're right. I mean, punching things and stamping on things is more fun than shooting them, and they've given it feet,
Starting point is 00:40:52 and they've given it a massive claw. So really, actually, it is perfect for orcs. Shai said you can't see it, but the minigone, which is made of minigons, is actually piloted by a boy sitting in a little chair behind. Is it really? Oh, yeah, there's a little guy back there. You can kind of see him.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Yeah. That's so weird. It's so strange. It's really weird. It's really weird. They are a little... They are a little derpy looking, though, to be fair. I'd like to keep this as a quote from here on out.
Starting point is 00:41:25 You can't see it, but the minigone, which is made by minigons, is actually piloted by a boy sitting in a chair. The minigone, made by mini guns. I mean, it is. It's a mini gun of minigms. Again, I feel like Peacork, right? You can't just have someone controlling that from inside. it. That'd be way too difficult. You've got to have a lad sitting outside
Starting point is 00:41:46 sitting outside as it walks around, presumably being fired at a lot because who wouldn't try and take that out. And you just got a lad having the absolute time of his life sitting behind a gun made of guns just loving
Starting point is 00:42:02 life. I like how in that one picture, it looks like it is just stuck like that. Like it can't really move up and down. It's just stuck in that stationary position. Like when I first looked, I thought that was an arm that moved up, down, front, back, side. But no, it's, it's, it's locked into that position. That's, that is a...
Starting point is 00:42:22 And he's still enjoying himself. Of course. Oh, that doctor? Come on. He's got the perfect job. He's got the perfect job. Oh, yeah. He doesn't used to do anything else. They probably fight for that job.
Starting point is 00:42:32 A massive broad sea who sits behind the gun made of guns. There is, this scales up as well. So, uh, so there's, there's also gargants and stompers. Gargans, great gargans, and mega gargans. Basically, they are massively scaled up versions of Gorkenauts and Morkenauts. Kind of walking fortresses covered in guns, as you might expect. And there's also the stomper, which you can currently get one of those if you wanted to stomper. And it looks like, how do I properly...
Starting point is 00:43:09 I would say it looks like a massive thing in a dress made of metal. Yes, it does. I mean, you're not wrong. Built out of all the spare parts you could possibly want, to be honest. Whoa, is that like a, Shai, did you suppose like an x-ray of one of these things? Is that what that is? Yeah, they did like a cutaway of it. Oh, that's so cool.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Look at all the grots, the grots for throwing in coal, forging away in the center viz. The toilet that's got a squig That's trying to eat the little guy Oh shit I even see that You know snakes on a plane But literal That is great art though
Starting point is 00:43:52 Whoever did that That's amazing I enjoy looking at the Stomper's profile With its mega choppa With its strength of 20 Its AP of 5 And its damage of 9 Nine
Starting point is 00:44:08 I have never once That is towel rail gun levels And it's wounds of 40 Damn Oh that's right brutal cunning They teleport the mega gargant And they really mess some ad mix shit up with that Yeah
Starting point is 00:44:24 This thing is a very bad unit in game But it has so many guns It's so good It's just It's all the things that It's all the things that orcs love It's still It's still heavily armored
Starting point is 00:44:37 It's still walks it's got every weapon that I think they have access to, to be honest. I think it's got literally everything. There's a version where there is a gun that comes out of the gut, so it has like a gut gun as well. There we go, belly gun. It's size lifted everything. The regular stomper can feature many weapons and upgrades, including,
Starting point is 00:45:02 let's just reel them off. Mega chopper, death cannon, supergatler, super rocket crushable, death arsenal, lift a drop of belly gun, gaze of morgue, big shooters, scorches, and a red paint job to make it go faster. What's the gaze of morgue? I remember the gaze of morgue. The gaze of morgue was also in brutal cunning. It was like, yeah, it's like the super giant eye laser that just like, it's just, it has
Starting point is 00:45:28 this big old angry orc eyes. It just stares to them and goes, and it fucking dies. Oh, you're right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I vaguely remember that. Uh, okay. I, yeah, I didn't realize, I don't know why, but it seems so strange to me for orcs to use, like, lasers. So I guess it just immediately didn't register and I just kind of forgot about it.
Starting point is 00:45:48 Because whenever I think of orcs, I'm just like, yo, they're just going to be like, raining bullets on you and just takat, taka, taka, taka, taka. Did you know that in the gorkanaut and morcanot have, and I quote, the claw of gork, or possibly mork, it's literally its name in the goddamn thing. which is just wonderful. I'm not quite sure. It's so good. I feel like the Forge World version of the Stomper is the better one, largely because it has the gaze of Mork and the lifter dropper. It's got like all the most fun options.
Starting point is 00:46:22 It's got those. And the massive gun sticking out of the stomach is, it's even by their standards, like for all, because it's really silly, but I really like it. Also, I'm pretty sure it's just the same. gun that comes out of the uh the kill the killburster oh no the fun part of the storm is that it has 200 parts and no instructions for building oh no really you just kind of figure that shit out well i mean that is you know if you're going to be an org player that's uh you got to get
Starting point is 00:46:56 used to it right i guess i'm sure surely someone online has compiled like an actual like here's how you build it roughly no surely surely surely not not. Surely you just, you know, if you buy one, you've got to go through the, you've got to go, you've got to go, you've got to build it like a real orc. Yep. Yeah, this is an orc weapon. You need to build it like an orc, don't piss out. Yeah, you got to be your orky, orkiest self. You've got to go, you got to go super glue, you've got to go green stuff and Miliput and epoxy, like, what is it, epoxy resin and whatever. You've got to, you've got to suffer for it,
Starting point is 00:47:33 otherwise you're not a true ork, is how it works. I don't know, their walkers look a little too dirty to me. I mean, I am not one to talk because I look very derpy, but I don't know. They look a little too much dirt for me. There is a certain city, but there is a certain level of dirt that I think orcs reach. Like, Killikans and some of the tanks and stuff, like, yeah, pretty good. But I will admit, the Stompa is a bit much. And I think it's mainly because it's so bottom heavy.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Maybe it might be the bottom heaviness Yeah because the Devtread looks awesome Devtreads look dope Yeah I Something about the last two are just kind of I think it's because they're like Because everything else When it comes to like walkers and stuff
Starting point is 00:48:21 The armour's quite like fitted to it So it looks like It looks like a A giant person wearing armor For the most part Like especially like All the different titans for the Imperium
Starting point is 00:48:34 And the different Eldar Titans and stuff stuff, it's very kind of form fitting in a way, but the stomper is just like, okay, how do we cover up all this stuff? Yeah, it's just, what do we do to cover all the important bits up? I just build a massive, like, wall around it. Let's just do that. It's way easier, which does make it, it always makes me think of, like, those things that, like, old people have that put, they put them over toilet rolls, like the spare toilet roll
Starting point is 00:49:05 on the window sill. Like just a put... Do you not... Oh God, is this a... Is this a UK thing? That might be a British thing. Is this a British thing? Oh no.
Starting point is 00:49:15 So, there's... For a while there, there was a... There was like a trend. I think like sort of late 60s, early 70s or something, but then all people just kept it up. Where to hide your spare toilet roll, you would put something over it, like a doll that had like a big dress on
Starting point is 00:49:33 to cover up the toilet roll. Why? There's gotta be, I don't know. I have no idea. I don't know why you wouldn't want people to know that there's an extra toilet roll in the bathroom. Yeah. But it was definitely a thing.
Starting point is 00:49:45 That's weird. Both of my grandparents did it and I don't know why. Maybe it's just for decorations sake because they just think it was unsightly to have that extra roll there. So it's like, oh here's a decoration, right? The problem is I see the stompher and I think of that is my main issue. You think there's a toilet roll. It's like, seeing that when you were a kid, you've been a kid, you've been a little bit.
Starting point is 00:50:05 become like, I don't know, the first time I saw and I was like, that looks a lot like that looks like someone is smuggling toilet rolls and I don't know that that's a look I can really get on board with. Shai said if you're an orc fan and want a death dread, I say just buy a knight and loot it. That is
Starting point is 00:50:21 the... Is that something you can actually do? A deaf dread is very small comparatively. It's like a dreadnought size. The night is enormous. The mega dread. You might be perfect. Megadred. She met Megadry, okay.
Starting point is 00:50:36 I was like, wait a second. I was like, wow, you can upscale it like that? Holy shit. Those deaf dreads do look really cool. I love the skull. I think we talked about this, but yeah, I love death dreads. They're so cool. I'd run a whole squad of them.
Starting point is 00:50:53 They're one of the best, like, walkers that Games Workshop have done. They look incredibly mean. They look like they might actually work somehow, kind of. Like, they look more. feasible to me than like the standard box, box not. They look more capable than that. As far as orc technology works, it does look like, it does look like something that would function properly, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:18 It's kind of unique in that, really. Yeah. Weirdly, they don't have a lot of weird aircraft. Now, their aircraft are, I would say, some of the most sensible in the game. Because you look typically at, like, if you look at most like Space Marine aircraft, they're all dumb
Starting point is 00:51:36 and stupid and they don't know like they'd work. If you look at like the transport that the Space Wolves have, is it the Storm Wolf? I forget what it's called. The one that looks like a brick with tiny wings at the back of it. Storm Raven. I think the Storm Raven's the generic one, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:51:54 Just the standard space marine one, the Storm Raven? There's like... But they all look like boxes, basically. They all look like boxes with wings that wouldn't function. Flying boxes. Yeah. Weirdly, the orcs have got, like, these actually look feasible.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Yeah. Yeah. Huh. They often, I know the one that always gets me is the, the Burnabama, because that's probably the most orky of them all, because it's just, like, never-ending flames in, like, plane form.
Starting point is 00:52:26 Yeah. And you can fly it at your enemy and blow it up, which is very fun. Yeah, that's such a weird departure from orcs, because everything else is like, oh, look at how shoddy this is, look at all the extra parts, and like, that yellow plane is just like, look at how well-constructed this plane is. Like, it's just, it's a plane. It's a good-looking plane with a turret on it, and it's like, wow, that looks like they put some thon into building this thing. Like, yeah, it's just ramshampling and some wa. It's cool, though, because I like the fact that they've got, there is, I like the fact that for a start, there is something.
Starting point is 00:53:01 that looks like it would actually work. But it's just weird that it's the orcs who got that, you know? Yeah. Even the helicopters don't look all that stupid. So they've got something called the Warcopter that I don't believe you can get anymore, but it's probably one of the silliest aircraft they have.
Starting point is 00:53:23 And it still doesn't look completely like, completely insane. It still looks like it would kind of work because it's basically just a two-rotor helicopter, and that's it. It's a bit ramshackle. It looks a bit kind of like it's not long for this world, but it's still relatively, like,
Starting point is 00:53:45 relatively sensible for them. Yeah, I was going to say also known as the Chinnork. I mean, that's a little more on the ramshamble sort of orch aesthetic that I expect. I hate the Chinook so much Chinook so much I like you want to talk about things that look dumb yikes yikes
Starting point is 00:54:10 it doesn't look that bad does it dude it's fine I mean look at what it's just some helicopter blades and some seats on like a sled how can you not like the stomp of it you look at this
Starting point is 00:54:27 and you're like, yep. No, well, hey, I'm not saying this is like peak aesthetic that I love, but it's, it's fine. It's not, you know, I'm not aggressively hating it or anything. It's fine. It could be a long word. I am. I am aggressively hating. Okay. You're shy, what is that?
Starting point is 00:54:45 Yeah, I was about, I was about to say there is another, there is another John Ashton creation. So the guy who did the grot tank that, like the grot trike bike thing that was just a chimera, hull panel and that was the whole thing. He also made this, which is the driller killer. What in good God! Why would a plane need three drills on it like that?
Starting point is 00:55:10 What the fuck? It's not really been fleshed out outside of a mech or saw a tectonic frag drill and wondered if he could put wings on it and then it was it worked. He put wings on it. I don't really know how it operates. I don't know whether
Starting point is 00:55:25 it's an air to air sort of deal. I guess maybe. It's gotta be for like drilling through stuff, I guess. Although you take that same design on the drill-a-killer, take off the drills and just put on three like megacannons or something, that'd be a pretty cool like fighter pilot chip bomb that thing. I unironically am gutted that there's not an actual model I can field in game. It's, it's so good.
Starting point is 00:55:54 It's crazy. Perfect. Perfect, Ork, orc approach to things. Shai said the description says you just crash it into enemies.
Starting point is 00:56:02 Which would, that would cause a lot of damage. I mean, yeah. That would... I guess it doesn't matter what enemy at that point. Because if all you're doing is trying to crash it
Starting point is 00:56:11 into things, if you find something in the air that's close enough, you might as well go for it. If you see something on the ground that's that's close enough, may as well go for that.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Really, it's like an all-purpose, an all-purpose aircraft. If the drills are strong enough, you could probably literally fly it through something and come out the other side, okay, I guess.
Starting point is 00:56:31 Would physics let you do that? I don't think. I mean, if it's the orcs and there's enough of them around, then probably. Oh, that's true, yeah. You got enough orcs with the wads, like, oh, he's going to throw him through him, and like a hot knife through butter. I love the idea of it being so powerful that it goes through one side of a planet and comes out of the other.
Starting point is 00:56:50 Oh, the grop bomb. What? What is that? It's grok bomb. It's a grot. Don't you fucking say that to me and just like ends it like that and be like, oh, come on, it's a grot bomb.
Starting point is 00:57:05 Don't you understand that? What do you mean? It's a grot. Oh, God. Oh, my God, it's literally a grot. He's literally a grot. Whatever plane drops that looks so cool, though, with that paint job.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Oh, my God. What is that? It's a grot bomb. No, you idiot. The thing that's dropping them. an orc oh god so that it's the grot bomber
Starting point is 00:57:29 funnily enough and that's that's what it does drops grot bombs and the grots pilot the bomb makes perfect sense you've got an abundance of grots
Starting point is 00:57:39 you've got some hard to hit targets I mean it's a problem it's just like it's a problem that solves itself isn't it just stick pilots and bombs you're good to go
Starting point is 00:57:47 and no one cares because the grots they'll pilot and make sure it hits the target sure obviously I'm very upset that I even doubt at you
Starting point is 00:57:54 I have My apologies, you know, I'm so sorry. It's called the Mega Bomber. Yep. Okay, okay. Cool, cool, cool. What else do we have? I think to round out, we'll do a few of the, just a couple of super weird ones.
Starting point is 00:58:14 So, Bricky early brought up, like, the kill rig and the, and the Hunter rig as well. Super weird. Super weird vehicles, because they are. basically trailers being pulled by giant squig creatures. Now the problem that I have is I always forget what the actual squig squigs are called for these. A trampler squigs, I think is the name. Yeah, they're the trample squigs. Ever since I started calling the smaller ones Pigley Squiggly.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Now, because they're squig hogs, so I just call them Pigley Squigglyies every time. Now I can't remember the name of any of them legitimately without really thinking about it, because I just want to say Pigley Squiggly. So, like, Hunter Rigs and Kill Rigs, they're just trailers pulled by giant trampler squigs, covered in weapons with either a harpoon or a weird boy. Oh, it's these things. Yeah. Oh, these things are great. Yeah, I've seen these.
Starting point is 00:59:16 These are fantastic. That's, mm, love it. Love it. It's piggledy, squiggledies. I feel like you've got old as that book. I think, I probably have, yeah. It's gone bad. It's gotten bad.
Starting point is 00:59:28 It's good, though. I like the name. It's going to stick with me. Piggledy, squiggly. I like it. I have also seen it, like, in the wild a few times now, which is concerning, because that means other people. Other people agree.
Starting point is 00:59:40 And they shouldn't, really. No, everybody should call it that. Everybody should call it the Piggledy, squiggly. I really particularly, like, that's the hunter rig, I think. The kill rig is something I've fought a bit, and they're right now really damn good. But the weird boy. Tarrant. Isn't there like one that has a bigger version of the Piggledy-Squiggledy, the squigg thing?
Starting point is 01:00:02 That's the Squigoth that we talked about earlier. The Kilbrugh... The Kilbrug-Rig looks identical to this, because there's just a fucking psycher weird boy on the top, like screaming. Yeah, and there's a massive, like, skull in front of him made out of, made out of, like, metal and stuff that, like, focuses his power, I think. It's... Yeah. It's so weird. He's just...
Starting point is 01:00:25 You got to give him the... Macs, you gotta give them the Mad Max guitar or something at the top up there. Just blowing out flames? Hell yeah, those are sick. It's, to be fair, it's great. I do, I really like them. They're very daft, even by Orch standards, but there is, there was a while ago, I forget who made it.
Starting point is 01:00:44 You might be thinking, D.K., there's a, there's a conversion that's been going around for like a couple of years now of a, of a giant squig pulling a, pulling a battlewagon. That's shown up quite a lot. I forget who did the conversion now, but there's like someone basically started building something like this before this was a thing, like by quite some way as well. So it might be that that you've seen that you're thinking of.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Maybe, yeah. So I think to round out, there's two, two arc tanks that you're not really going to see anymore because they were part of epic. for the most part, and they are probably too weird to ever be returned to. The brain crusher is the first one. So the brain crusher is a tank that also has basically a small house slash castle built into the back of it with a gigantic cannon sticking out the front.
Starting point is 01:01:51 Wow. That is the dumbest. thing I've ever seen. Yet. That's the dumbest thing you've seen, like, so far. Yes, so far. That is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Is there going to be another one?
Starting point is 01:02:07 Oh, yeah. So this is stupid. So the Brain Crusher Canon fills the entire body of the tank, which is why there's a tower on top, because otherwise the crew wouldn't fit on the tank. And it's not that, like, the cannon is designed to destroy the enemy's brains or something from a distance. It's called the brain crusher because of the noise and vibrations
Starting point is 01:02:31 that the orcs crewing the vehicle experience. So it's so bad that they themselves have their brains crushed just by being in proximity to this thing when it fires. So that is... Good name, good name. That is silly, but it's still not quite as silly as the Weird Boy Tower, which is literally
Starting point is 01:02:56 just a tower on tracks with a weird boy on top with satellite dishes to amplify their psychic powers which I would argue is actually sillier to the break crusher I think that might be sillier
Starting point is 01:03:13 you've essentially got a psycher up there with two megaphones to just it's okay yeah that's yeah I think that might take the cake which also means that the kill rig is not as new as people might think. Because that's what the kill rig has.
Starting point is 01:03:28 No, but I must admit, I think I appreciated it a little bit more with the giant orc skull than the two satellite dishes. Yeah, it's definitely not, it's definitely not aged all that well that one. Although that is, that's also an epic model, so
Starting point is 01:03:44 it's never going to be, it's never going to be that far up in terms of like model quality. Yeah. Oh, Shy. She has a few dumb things to mention. Go ahead. Let's see what dumb orc things Shy can bring out.
Starting point is 01:04:01 If shy ever shows it to us. Yeah, shy. Oh, the pressure is unreal. Oh, God, I'm waiting. I can't believe I've been lied to like this. What the fuck? Oh, yeah, the submersible. Oh, how did I forget the submarine? Oh, I can't believe I forgot that.
Starting point is 01:04:27 All right, the squid catapult doesn't surprise. This is pretty on-brand. That is very on-brand. I just assume they had stuff like that. However, that rocket? What is the pulsar rocket? Yeah, what is the pulsar rocket? That is so good.
Starting point is 01:04:52 I can't believe it. Can you imagine being stationed in that little building when they shoot with us? And look at the size of the orc, like the orc for scale. What? That is a big rocket. That is, that is, that is, that is, okay, here we go. It contains a large and unstable force field generator. So it's a special version of the custom force field mounted on a rocket and launched into enemy ranks.
Starting point is 01:05:20 What? The generator is modified into a special version called a pulter and detach it from the rocket and slowly descends, hopefully, to the ground. says hopefully in the description. The pulsar launches waves of energy in all directions like a stone on a pond, which sends troops into disarray as they are thrown around and vehicles are flipped over. Most of the time it will burn out after one massive pulse have on some occasions it can continue to fire. The crew doesn't need to be able to see where the rocket is going. Ultimately, as long as it lands somewhere in the area of the enemy, it's fine.
Starting point is 01:05:55 That's mad. That is a little wacky crazy. Yep. It doesn't look... Well, I was going to say it doesn't look stupid, but yeah, it kind of does. It looks stupid. By orc standards, that's fairly well engineered as well, though, isn't it? Yeah, that looks very orc, you know?
Starting point is 01:06:14 It doesn't surprise me that they'd pull something like that out of their house. I feel like if it's... I feel like if you, you know, if you build that in the wrong place, you're in real trouble. Because if you build it point in a certain way and the enemy approaches from a slightly different direction, you're not going to be able to use that. It's not turnable, is it? That's definitely like you have to see the enemy way off there and be like, okay, perfect position, let's fire this thing, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:40 Oh, there is an epic scale one that's on a little tank, so actually you could get away with it. They have got a tank, a tank-based version, so maybe a bit, maybe like past judgment too quickly on the orcs there. Yeah, good for them for thinking it through. Since I remember this just before Shai posted those, here's the gut-ripper and I will just let it speak for itself
Starting point is 01:07:02 Yo, Mr. Crabs on wheels! He got those little crab hands. Crave people, crab people. Yep. Wow, that's, that is Oh, is that like a tiny, tiny little it was like a micromachine tank? So that's an epic scale
Starting point is 01:07:24 gut ripper, so it would just normally be like a tank the size of a predator, but with a pair of pincers on the front. Of course. Still got the cannon as well. Yep. Yep.
Starting point is 01:07:37 Oh, boy. Orcs, man. That is. Orcs. Orcs. You know, I have consistently been outdone by the dumbest thing I think I could have seen again and again. And now, shy post another one that might be worse. The nautical cruiser.
Starting point is 01:07:56 That's the wonder of oaks. How, there, where does the guns? end and the ship begins. I don't. That's the trick. The ship is just made of guns. There's no ship. It's just guns.
Starting point is 01:08:09 There's no guns coming out of the eyes on the skull. Yeah. That is peak, that is maximum orc. It shouldn't fly. It shouldn't work. But there's probably like a shitload of orcs on there, so it does. I love how completely asymmetrical that is as well.
Starting point is 01:08:28 Like that's just one hot. It looks like one side of it got like the prime choice of guns. And on the other side, they just went, yeah, whatever we've got left over, we'll do fine. That's okay, whatever. It'll be fine. They want to be in that direction. I've just noticed that the central column has got a turret that's sat on another turret, but the turrets are also covered in more guns that look like they're also attached to turrets that are sticking out the side of the original two turrets. That's, that is, that is more.
Starting point is 01:09:00 and you specifically told me not to think too hard at this, okay? So, it's true. It's true. It's fair. Oh my God. We just accept what we have going on here
Starting point is 01:09:12 and like live the life. Live in the org dream. Damn. So is that? Is that it? Have we finished it off with the nautical cruiser? I think so.
Starting point is 01:09:26 I'm just very quickly seeing a confined image of the best ever Ork Kit Bash, but if not I'll just have to send it later. Shai will most likely be familiar with this. It being a someone who made like their own
Starting point is 01:09:40 Ork Warboss slash mech and just took like towel kits and night kits and bits of every single kit you can imagine and just plastered it in guns. I think it
Starting point is 01:09:56 stands like as tall as a knight if not taller and it's just guns and nothing else with like a single face sticking out the middle and I'm desperately trying to find a picture of it and I can't but I'm sure that can be inserted at some point because it's it's amazing it also looks like it probably cost about $5,000 to make which is but there we go there we go Shai's got it Jesus Christ I knew that I knew that I'd be able to find it I knew it look at that lad I don't even know
Starting point is 01:10:34 I can't even tell what it's supposed to be I don't I don't know What is that? Yeah, it's a walker I don't know what it counts as I'd imagine he's probably just made up his own stats for that Yeah
Starting point is 01:10:48 It probably costs 2,000 points By itself yeah I just look at I mean Oh my God It's so much stuff It's so much There's four
Starting point is 01:11:02 Lehman-Russ battle cannons on one hand. One hand! That's not even all of it. That's just one hand. Four battle cannons. Oh my God. Those guards, its feet are screwed. Oh, definitely. That's not an official one, but I feel like that is also peak orc. You can't beat that for just... What are orcs? Show someone that. And they'll know immediately. Yeah, you basically got the idea of orcs, sure.
Starting point is 01:11:27 That was basically all the maddest and best orc vehicles. Hell yeah That was fun Orks are always fun It's always fun when there's an orc episode Because they just make no sense That's amazing Making sense is against the
Starting point is 01:11:40 The point of the orcs It's against the orc credo To make sense Stuff that they do that makes sense Is actively worse Than the stuff that they do that doesn't I think It just goes against everything
Starting point is 01:11:52 That makes them what they are Also making sense is boring So boring This is also true Entertainment before accuracy as we said. Hell yeah, brother. Hell yeah. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 01:12:10 Well, that was some shit. To say the least, yeah, to put it mildly. I feel like you've been scarred for life off this. So there's so many weird things. I need a pain boy. Magic pain glove. Tell me what to do. Magic pain glove. Tell me what I must do.
Starting point is 01:12:32 buy the orc gargant what's that big one the stomper the false little stomper with no instructions no no no no that one he just posted oh that
Starting point is 01:12:45 yeah we don't know what that is I don't think that's a name okay that is that is literally someone just built it and it just is don't know what it's supposed to be don't know what it counts as
Starting point is 01:12:56 custom creation just a custom creation made of I think every kit that gamers workshop do pretty much his name is gunther and he's brought the guns
Starting point is 01:13:08 yeah he'll be sure he has oh no all right I think we can round this one out Curiaf do you want to shout yourself out oh yeah I've got a YouTube channel called Kiryath TV or Kiryath one of the two you can find it either way and I do Warhammer stuff
Starting point is 01:13:25 and that's it really and we'll make sure we'll get started on that in your walls merch you know. Yeah. It's gonna be doing. Let's make them. It's about the money, baby. All about that money, the hell of cash.
Starting point is 01:13:42 All right. Chy any final orc words to be said before the episode's over? Wow.
