![]() ![]() Turbo BoostaĪlso known as Turbo-Chargas, Turbo Boostas are effectively huge spare engines strapped onto the side of the vehicle which can be activated whenever the driver likes. It can also be installed on Mega Armour, giving its user a better chance when assaulting enemies behind cover, although it does mean that they are preoccupied with throwing the Stikkbomb and cannot attack with as much force. ![]() It also has the effect of demoralising enemy troops. The Stikkbomb Chukka is a simple mechanism, allowing the vehicle to fire Stikkbombs in support of deploying Orks, giving them cover as they plunge out of the vehicle into the ranks of the enemy. They are not used on Ork transports, however. Spikes 'n' BladesĮffectively a huge number of spikes and blades welded, strapped or glued onto the side of an Ork vehicle, and help to protect it during close combat. It gives the vehicle a much better ability to ram its way through a battlefield and make its way through dangerous terrain. Ork drivers often miss the thrill of close combat and so their vehicles are often customised so that they have to do something while they drive. The most fanatical Orks belong to the Kult of Speed and use red liberally. The effect is not limited to vehicles as red is found on just about any item an Ork wants to make stronger, faster, shoot better, etc. Because of the cumulative psychic effect of the Waaagh!, this thought manifests itself as a real boost to the operation of a vehicle. Many vehicles in the Ork armoury are painted red as a result of the superstition that it makes them "go fasta!". Most cultures in the galaxy place special meaning on the colours they can perceive. That makes them more accurate than usual Ork weapons, but these sponsons are very fragile and are easily destroyed in battle. When Orks feel their tanks don't have enough weaponry, they sometimes mount additional Big Shoota sponsons with Gretchin manning them. It is, however, quite cumbersome and as such is useless against anything that can move out of the way fast enough. A Grabbin' Claw is effectively a giant claw-like device which allows Ork passengers to grab an enemy vehicle and stop it from "running away". ![]()
