"Number 3: Thou will never, never have enough Dakka."
Dakka is Ork slang for rapid fire capability, based on the onomatopoeia for automatic guns shooting. You need moar of it. No exceptions. Although they too need it, when other races use it, it's just not cool anymore. Must have something to do with that rockin' Ballistic Skill 2 that da Orks are throwing down.

Too Much Dakka
It's actually possible to get "Too Much Dakka". In Dawn of War 2, if you pin down some Orks they will shout "WAAAH! Too much Dakka" when they come under suppressive fire from, you guessed it, a lot of Dakka. There's too much Dakka when it's being fired at y- *BLAMBLAMBLAMBLAMBLAM* HERE... HURR... UM, YOU IS SAYIN' BAD T'INGS YOU SHOULDN'T SAY!
