An Ork Mek might build some shootas that use an electronic/electrical firing assembly, for example. That is, it sends the round down-range by way of an electrical pulse that sets off the gunpowder in the bullet, rather than a pin that detonates a blasting cap. The AdMech, finding a gun without a firing pin and not understanding that is how it is intended to function, as "all the best weapons use firing pins!!!", passes it off to "Xeno Sorcery", rather than a mechanical principle he doesn't understand.
While i agree with the point beeing made, the example is a bad one, as at least one Stormbolter pattern uses piezo electric ignition (was a internal schematic in a white dwarf).
Come on guys, this thread was almost a year old.
I'd rather have this then yet another stupid "40k vs other IP - who wins ?!!! " topic...
