An alternative version of these are the '''Meka-Dreads'''. An even more advanced version of the Mega-Dread that has a Mekboy piloting it instead of a normal Ork, Meka-Dreads include a unique kontrol system and swaps its Big Shootas for giant servos that it uses for fixing vehicles.

Unsurprisingly, the Meka Dread Body is also supplied and controlled with a [[Big Mek]] pilot, holding the 'complex' Kontrol system of this unique war machine that has been hardwired and jammed into his brain.

[[Tl;dr]], its an upgraded Mega-Dread.

In 8th Edition, Meka-Dreads lacks Mob Rule. It must take either a Kustom Force Field (5++ for all ORKS units entirely within 9"), a Mega Charga (Once per battle increase your Movement by 8" for one Movement phase, but take a mortal wound and can't Advance or Charge that turn on a D6 roll of 1), or Rokkit-Bomms (an extra weapon). Keep in mind you have to use the Codex for the KKF point cost. It can also swap one of its Rippa Klaws out for either a [[Big_Zzappa|Big Zzappa]], [[Shunta|Shunta]], or [[Rattler_Kannon|Rattler Kannon]].

The Mega Charga and Rokkit-Bomms have no points listed anywhere. Also, both the Mega-Charga and KFF are listed as abilities rather than equipment. This makes a Meka-Dread a good choice for a big bubble of KFF that's cheaper than a [[Morkanaut]] by 32 points with not much of a decrease in durability and a good companion for other normal Deff Dreads or a Killa Kan wall. Like most heavier vehicles it can fire Heavy weapons on the move with no penalties, and Fall Back without losing the ability to shoot or charge.

Also has an unusual Wound ignore mechanic in '''Ramshackle Monster''': It ignores Wounds on a 4+, but every time you fail the roll it gets worse by 1 - decreasing to 5+, then 6+ before it stops working altogether after three failed rolls.
