A, because it seems like it could end messily.

I'm changing the vote count needed back to 7, it seems that 10 was too much.

Nippy looked at the guards standing on top of the wall. He suddenly got an idea. "Start shooten da door" said Nippy. The Lasgun shots seemed to do no damage at all but the Gretchin continued to fire at it. The Orks laughed at the Gretchin's attempt to break through their wall. "U lot stop! Start shooten da Orkses" said Nippy. The Orks continued their laughing, many had dropped their Shootas and after a few lucky Lasgun shots they fell off the wall and landed with a loud thump next to the hoard of Gretchin. After a while and a few more dead Orks the gates flew open. a Big Mek who towered over them stomped out of the camp. He was covered with Cybork parts, his steps had a loud mechanical thump. Although his lower jaw was entirly mechanical and he only had one natural eye left, the Gretchin could see the evil in his smile. He raised his right arm to reveal several Shootas attached to it. The Gretchin started firing at Big Mek, but the Lasgun shots reflected off the Cybork parts and he laughed as he launched shot after shot into the green hoard. A few Gretchin were killed, the rest scurried to the Trukk and began climbing onto it. Nippy heard the engine start and turned to run to it only to see it speed off into the distance. Only Speedy and Wheely-git stayed behind. The Trukk started to disappear into the distance, but was suddenly hit with a Rokkit and reduced to a pile of burning debris. They turned around to face the Big Mek again, only to find a cage landing over the top of them. Luckily the Orks had no idea what they were really doing so they would not be killed straight away.

Nippy awoke the next day to find that he, Speedy and Wheely-git were still alive and in the cage. Althogh the cage seemed to now be in a Mek's shop, although there would be many in the camp so that really didn't help them figure out where they were. A couple of Gretchin walked into the room and placed some food and water into the cage before quickly walking out of the room again trying to avoid eye contact with the caged Gretchin. "Now wot boss?" asked Wheely-git. "Dun Knoe" replied Nippy. He grabbed the door of the cage and tried to shake it open, it barely moved at all. He picked up some food walked over into the courner and began to eat.

What will you do?
A. Wait for someone to open the cage and then jump out at them and scratch and bite their face
B. Ram the cage door with the others until it opens
C. Try to get the other Gretchin to help the next time they show up

"Howz we gunna opens da door?" asked Speedy. "Dun knoe. Maybe da ova Gretchins will elps us wen dey get bak" replied Nippy. "How?" asked Wheely-git. "We tellz dem we givez dem shinys if dey elps us Gretchins" replied Nippy. The three continued to bash on the rusty cage door anyway, just in case they could break it open anyway. A few minutes of bashing later an Ork boy walked into the room. "Oi! Weedy gits, quiet or youz getten stomped" yelled the Ork, kicking the side of the cage, the Gretchin stopped and sat quietly in the courner. The ork stomped out of the room. A few seconds later a couple of Gretchin scurried into the room. "Youz ok?" asked one of the Gretchin. "Yeh, deys just kik da cage" replied Nippy. "Wez gunna get youz outta da cage" said the other Gretchin. "We wants ta smash all da Orkes" said the first Gretchin. "We's lukky" said Nippy. The two Gretchin scurried out of the room, only to reappear a couple of minutes later with roughly 50 Gretchin. Each carrying a sharp object. A few of them even had some of the Mek's cutting tools and quickly cut off the door of the cage. "Thankz Gretchins! We's gunna be da nu boss! Da Orkes ar gunna be da slavez of da Gretchins! We'z will kik dem an laff at dem fer bein stoopid den we's tellz dem ta do stuffs fer us!" said Nippy. The Gretchin cheered and followed Nippy out of the room. Hardly subtle anymore the Gretchin would have to come up with a plan quickly to get out of the Mek camp and back to the supply cave, hopefully there would still be enough equipment there for them. As much of the Equipment had been lost when Fun-Krusha had betrayed them and fled.

What will you do?
A. Grab a Battlewagon and get out of the camp
B. Get a Trukk and get out of the camp
C. Get a Wartrakk and get out of the camp

Come on, at least make more than one option viable.

I did, I wouldn't put three options that would end up in a game over. They don't really have a choice besides just trying to run out of the camp, but I didn't put that as they wouldn't get far before dieing.

Yeah, I understand that, but all three are transports, and the hierarchy of them is Battlewagon>Trukk>Wartrakk, so the battlewagon is the obvious choice.

May I suggest mixing it up a bit next time? Give the choices of trying to hijack some Kans, or perhaps some Stormboy jetpacks. Perhaps let them make the workshop a stronghold and set up big guns at the door.

Just my two cents.

Alright then, I will mix it up a fair bit more from now on then. This one was, but fairly subtly.

C on the proviso they steal more than 1.

No Warboss is going to survive getting hit by a Battlewagon unless he possesses unusually large levels of GAR.
