do you think that they are big enough? I am thinking about using the lascannons as zapp guns for my death skulls themed army. sneaky grots stole them and turned them on their owners?

Stikk bommas are special among ork society for one reason - They know when you pull the pin out of a stikk bomb you throw the bomb not the pin!

How do you explain why they would be artillery pieces for orks when they're not for guard?


Maybe if you put them on big wheeled carriages, but too small as is, IMO.

Thank you for the reply. I have never seen the gurd heavy weapons in person so I really had no idea how big they actually were

The weapons themselves are probably big enough (especially the lascannon) but I agree that they would need to be put on bigger carriages with maybe a bigger power generator to represent the artillery aspect.

Please excuse any spelling errors. I use a tablet frequently and software keyboards are a pain!

Ork them up. With some plasticard work they would work. There are quite a few scratchbuild big gun tutorials on this site. If you take a couple of the ideas they'd look good Give it some big power cables and power cells, some orkiness and bolts. you could even beef up the shaft of the lascannon if need be.

Dont be discouraged! the orks can turn anything into something blasty
