=== Super Heavy === *'''Battle Fortress (also Forgeworld):''' If the Battle Wagon is the Ork equivalent of a Land Raider, then the Battle Fortress is the Ork version of the Baneblade. Can carry a metric fuck ton of orks and royally fuck up the shit of anything it gets in the way of. Very customizable like the Battle-wagon, and generally if it works for the Battle Wagon it works for the fortress. Unlike the Wagon, the Fortress gets some really sweet guns, and it can carry full sized mobs into the midst of the enemy. *'''Stompa (not Forgeworld anymore):''' Your main [[Titans_40k#Orky_Titans|Titan]]. Unlike Imperial and Eldar Titans, it carries a huge variety of weapons for dealing with any target, and has a Titan CCW and the ability to make a Stomp attack against anything that gets too close. Has a drawback in that its main anti-infantry gun fires random shots and can only be fired once per-game, but it throws out so many dice that it can take hours to resolve one usage of it. Generally, the best way to resolve the dice roll of the Supa-gatler is to just buy a lot of d6s, stuff them in a bucket, then dump them on the board. A bonus for the Supa-gatler is that it DOESN'T take up a Titan weapon slot, which is pretty nice. *'''Super Stompa (You wish Forgeworld made these):''' Otherwise known as [[Gargant]]s. Your big battle Titan. No rules, no models, just scratch-builders hopes and dreams. It should be noted that current-edition Stompas are closer to the Supa-Stompas of yore in size, but almost live up to the classic Gargant in terms of firepower. A Super Stompa today would be in-between a Gargant and a Great Gargant in terms of size, shielding, and firepower. A Stompa used to be the squadded-up go-between from a Deff Dred to a proper titan. And no, Mega Deff Dreds are NOT the Old Stompa, they are a literal analogue for the (very lame) Digga Stompa. Go read the [[Ork]] entry for why, an' don't let me catch ya finkin' uverwise! *'''Big Mek Stompa (Forgeworld):''' Your goofy and shooty Titan. Comes with Lifta-droppa, for dealing with those pesky Land Raiders, and an extra shield for soaking up those Volcano Cannon kame-hame-has coming your way. *'''Goff Klawstompa (Scratch-built, like a real Ork titan):''' A cheap (points-wise) and fun titan. Mostly close-combat oriented, but also has a S6 AP3 Hellstorm-template weapon. Who doesn't want automatic S6 hits? The thing can also ''chuck'' tanks halfway across the battlefield at other Titans (just like your little brother). *'''Stompa ([[Imperial Armour]] 8's Kustom Rules):''' An interesting and varied titan choice. This is a fully-customizable Stompa-maker for kitbashers and kustomizers, set up so that you can build goofy Stompas and make them game-legal (with fair price tags). Anybody who made a kustom Stompa out of <s>cardboard and duct-tape</s> MASTERCRAFTED PLASTICARD AND SECOND-HAND GUARD TANKS can now field ''their'' Stompa. These guys can do anything you want, including bullet-spamming, pie-plate dropping, [[Rip and tear|rip-and-tearing]], and ''double'' Lifta-dropping. For the right price, of course. The only problem is that this Stompa is generally weaker-skinned than other Stompas, having fewer power fields than the Big Mek Stompa and fewer Structure points than some of the other Stompa variants. That and the points cost if you go overboard on the guns. And you ''want'' to go overboard on the guns. ''So much.'' All-in-all, this is unit is whatever you want it to be. Send cheap hordes of them armed with Titan CCW's at your enemy, or stand back and watch one release game-breaking firepower from functionally ''6 main titan-class weapons '''at once.''''' Definitely lives up to the classic Gargant name in terms of [[Dakka]]. *'''Kill Tanks (Forgeworld, but scratch-building is WAY better and cheaper):''' These come in three flavors, the '''Kill Krusha''', the '''Kill Blasta''' and the '''Kill Bursta'''. Creative, yes. ** '''The Krusha's''' Kannon comes with a variety of sexy shells which are all pretty good, but still no Bursta kannon. The main two are Boom Shells (60" range, S8 Ap3, 5" Blast) and Tankhammer (S10, Ap2, no blast) while the other two are pansy anti-infantry crap that you'll never use. The Krusha Kannon (and Kill Krusha itself) can go a little wonky on occasion, so be mindful of how much pressure you put on this tank to perform on the front lines. This tank, more than the others, is an up-scaled [[Leman Russ Battle Tank|Leman Russ]], a Apocalypse-scale middle-range Main Battle Tank. It should be in the front, heckling "classic" tanks while avoiding the [[Baneblade|Apocalypse heavy-hitters]]. ** '''The Blaster's''' Giga Shoota is somewhat meh, giving you 6D6 S6, Ap4 shots. In theory that should be nice, but random almost always means terrible when it really matters. <s>A Megabolter beats it every time IMHO.</s> <span style='color:green;font-size:115%'>DEM IMPERIAL GITZ IZ ON DA PAGE AGAIN!!</span> This tank supports infantry advances well, and tends to eat enemy infantry and light vehicles. Though Apocalypse being what it is, those two tend to come in bushels or not at all, relegating this behemoth to lumber behind your Green Tide and protect it from other infantry-eaters. ** '''The Bursta''' is where the real class is , although for some (complete bullshit) reason it comes with the terrible Belly Gun as standard and you need to buy the fucking Bursta Cannon. Anyway, once you've bought it you are able to seriously bring the pain. It's essentially a [[Vindicator|Demolisher Cannon]] on steroids. It only has a 36" range, but it's a '''Destroyer weapon with Ap 2 and a 7" Blast'''. And it is pure ''fucking'' class. It'll blow MASSIVE holes in ''anything'' you point it at. Terminators? ''Land Raiders?'' Pfft. Fuck ''that'' shit. All dead in one shot. If you can land ''one blast'' on a reasonably pricey unit, you'll pay for it twice over, and that's why the Bursta's amazing. Particularly if you scratch build them (and why wouldn't you? You just need a box with tracks and a ''big fucking gun''), then even getting them Laser-Destroyered in the second turn after you rape an HQ/terminator/GK paladin/ANYTHING squad is still just as sweet because you paid ''nothing at all'' for the privilege to do so. ''Note: Don't waste yer [[toof|teef]] on da stuff [[GW]] sells, an' don't get yerself arrested punchin' out dere teef neither. Make yer own.''
