If you are going to make them, think of them as the equivilent of a Warlord Titan: 3 times the Hull Points and Void Shields of a Stompa (Warhound equivilent) with twice the weaponry.

Use the rules for a Reaver titan, but name everything something Orky.

Surely the Warlord Titan would be closer? The Stompa is a Warhound, the Big Mek Stompa a Reaver, a Gargant a Warlord and a Mega-Gargant an Emperor?

Orks don't actually measure those things, fluff usually describes them as not two looking remotly the same. When a stompa reaches a certain size, it becomes a gargant, and very big gargant are then counted as mega-gargants.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks do not think that purple makes them harder to see. They do think that camouflage does however, without knowing why.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe.

And really, to make things simple for you, AND to keep anyone from thinking your cheating them by making it OP... Just build one roughly equivalent in size and armature to either a reaver or warlord and play it as "counts as" for the same points. If you're playing apoc, allies matrix won't matter anyway
