I really need ideas for an ork superweapon as tall as a stompa help really needed!

I apologise to anyone who interacted with me around 2009-2012. |

Don't expect people to do the work for you. Try and come up with some ideas first.
What's more, there are several different type of Stompa, and then you have Gargant's, although I don't believe there are rules for them.

i have got a vauge idea of using a GW stompa as a base but i think thats a bit of a waste of parts... maybe a load of basalisk guns joined together to make a gatloing gun type thing. What do you think?

You need to start with getting an idea of what you want the unit to do: anti-tank, anti-infantry or both? Then, write some rules, going completely wild with your imagination. Then tone it down by about a factor of a hundred.
Besides, you're basing it off a Stompa it seems. So just make a new stompa variant with lots of artillery? Hell, as for the gatling gun, the regular Stompa already has that.
Frankly, you sound like you just want to make a mini-stompa.

Is this more of an objective type thing? How about a rickety gantry and large missle or a ramp for buzz bombs?

Well its an immobile objective with special rules so basicaly its an stompa with a load of elongated basalisk cannons andno legs or head or arms.

So a giant fortress? Why didn't you say so in the first place?
Just make it an immobile Stompa that can swivel on the spot and has no CCW.

Great idea but making it out of sprue, spare parts, plasticard and a wrecked tank may take some time...

Try using PVC or copper tubing. The thing with Orks is that it doesn't have to look like it actually works, but the bigger, the better.

I saw a stompa made from an old Christmas Pudding bowl once. Just the plastic bowl from that, with plasticard and guns. I wish I had photographed it.
A base like that might give you something to strap all the fire power to, at any rate.

Even better, build a rail gun that uses railway tracks for rails and a small train as the projectile.

You could always make a Rok. That way you don't need as much in the way of bits as a stompa type vehicle/fort.

I was going to say, something grot-related would be awesome.  Maybe a massive cannon that launches grot-to-enemy missiles?
