Mekboy - Notable Mekboyz: Mek Boss Orkimedes - Orkimedes is the mysterious Mekboss that serves the infamous Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka and his Great WAAAGH!. Imperial scholars have been unable to identify this mysterious Ork technical genius whom they have dubbed "Orkimedes." Although he has not been identified, his handiwork has been reported many times during both Ork invasions of the Hive World of Armageddon. The combination of Orkimedes' technical innovations and Ghazghkull's visionary strategies have lent the Greenskins of the Great WAAAGH! an edge that those seeking to stop them have learnt to fear -- Tellyporta strikes. Many times, Ghazghkull has lured an enemy into attacking a seemingly vulnerable Ork warband, only to tellyport overwhelming numbers into the fray as the battle unfolds, turning the tide enormously in favour of the Greenkins. He is also responsible for creating heavily kustomised Gargants and Ork submersibles. As such, he is one of the most highly sought-out priority targets for assassination by the Imperium's Officio Assassinorum.Mek Boss Buzzgob - Mek Boss Buzzgob is an Ork Mek of rare genius who has risen to a position of power and influence, so much so that he now leads his own warband and has been given a planet with which to build new war machines. He serves the Ork Warlord Garaghak. It was Buzzgob's genius that attributed to Overlord Garaghak's rise as such a powerful Warlord. The Mek Boss oversaw the building of Garaghak's fleet, and designed and oversaw the building of his ever-growing horde of Battlewagons, Battle Fortresses and Stompas. Though he loves designing and making "stuff," he does not have the patience or the brain for good organisation. Instead he delegates to his two most trusted underlings, a pair of suspiciously clever Grots called Nitnuckle and Lunk.Big Mek Cogtoof - Cogtoof was an ambitious Ork Big Mek who wanted to capture the Space Hulk Starkrumpa. He made a deal with the Evil Sunz Speed Freek Warboss Jazgob and his Jet-Boyz, to help board the massive derelict vessel and cleanse it of Genestealers. The Orks managed to wipe out the majority of the creatures except for the Broodlord. Cogtoof offered the Ork who brought him the skull of the Genestealer Broodlord anything he wanted. While other Orks mobbed up to charge into the nest, Jazgob and his Boyz raced past them on their bikes, careening off corridor walls and leaving thick trails of exhaust in their wake. Jazgob personally killed the Broodlord, ramming it into the wall with his Warbike before scorching off its face, and claimed a fleet of kustom vehicles from Cogtoof as his reward.Big Mek Fragrak da Planetsmasha - In 977.M41, the Deathskulls Big Mek Fragrak da Planetsmasha vowed he would surpass all other Deathskulls by looting an entire world, jerry-rigging a combination of traktor beams, ramships and city-sized Rokkit Boosters to push the third moon of Taurabrax out of its orbit, directly onto a collision course with its parent world. The resultant catastrophe rendered all life on the thriving Imperial Hive World extinct, fracturing continents, boiling the oceans off into space and burning away the world's atmosphere, finally reducing Taurabrax to a drifting debris field. Satisfied with his work, Big Mek Planetsmasha took his pick of the choicest of these asteroids, adding thrusters, forcefields and ordnance arrays to turn them into a fleet of Roks with which to spread even more mayhem across the system.Big Mek Grabork - In 979.M41, Big Mek Grabork and his mob of Meks salvaged the Space Hulk Perpetual Misery from the depths of the void. Acting on instinct, Grabork and his Boyz set about pulling it apart and putting it back together into a new configuration, linking up dozens of voidship reactors and cannibalizing hundreds of Macro Cannons to create a gargantuan ship-based Shokk Attack Gun. Eager to try out his new weapon, the Big Mek attacked the world of Fratarn, raining petrified Snotlings down upon the planet from orbit. However, when the Snotlings ran out, Grabork started hurling Orks into the machine. Not liking the way things were going, one of Grabork's Meks turned the gun into reverse, sucking the entire world up into the Perpetual Misery. The resulting explosion obliterated the Hulk and the planet, and created an asteroid field a billion miles across.Big Mek Mogrok - Mogrok, known as Mogrok the Manger, is an infamous Big Mek of the Split-Grin Bad Moons tribe. It was at Mogrok's urging, who first convinced the Goffs Warlord Grukk Face-rippa to look beyond conquering one planet, and to launch his Red WAAAGH! into the stars. Big Mek Mogrok was a know-it-all git through and through. He was the kind of Ork who would rather build a giant war engine covered in Dakkaguns than run towards the foe pell-mell, getting shot to bits in the normal Greenskin manner. Though he has often been accused of "not being one of da Boyz," Mogrok is so good at creating big, impressive war machines that not even Grukk himself was dumb enough to refuse him a place in the upper echelons of the tribe. Though none of the would-be Ork Warlords of the WAAAGH! liked to admit it, Mogrok had been the power behind the throne for quite some time. Always close at hand, Mogrok made sure Grukk was attacking the best worlds and keeping the tribes in line. Filled with all kinds of technological inspiration, Mogrok always seems to have another trick in his bag of scrap, often pulling something out at the last minute to turn the tide in favour of Grukk and his Boyz. Following the apparent death of Grukk at the Battle of Sacred Mountain during their invasion of the Knight World of Alaric Prime, klanz under Grukk's rule slowly began to fragment as each Warboss vied for supremacy over the WAAAGH!. Mogrok's War of Kunnin’ was a new phase in the battle for Alaric Prime, and one characterised by dirty tricks and sneaky plans. The Big Mek Mogrok managed not only to unite the tribes but also to manipulate their bosses into doing his bidding. For much of this stage of the war, the Imperium was slow to react to the plans and plots of Mogrok and he visited terrible ruin upon them for their folly.Big Mek Noshdakka - As a long-time adherent of the Kult of Speed, Big Mek Noshdakka has spent his life inventing ever-faster vehicles, much to the delight of the Speed Freeks who congregate around the Mek. The Ordinatus he found on the world of Hervara, then, is something of a paradigm shift for Noshdakka. Despite the Big Mek’s “improvements”, the Ordinatus is a slow vehicle, yet its pure grandeur and the obvious “killiness” of the sonic cannon have driven Noshdakka to obsession. Noshdakka is as devoted to the Ordinatus as an Ork could possibly be, and is prepared to fight to the last to prevent anyone -- Ork or human -- from taking it away from him. Noshdakka’s title is apt, for he towers over the Mekaniaks and Boyz that attend his work, rivalling the fearsome Nobz in size. Noshdakka has extensive experience constructing outlandish weapons for the Lootas in the warband, and his own Kustom Mega-Blasta represents the pinnacle of his weapon-smithing expertise. Though extremely temperamental, when it works, the weapon is undeniably devastating. While Noshdakka is intelligent by Ork standards, his talents are more instinctive than learned, as with most Mekaniaks. Nevertheless, Noshdakka is cunning, and has access to the deadliest equipment in the Orks’ arsenal. Combined with his loyal cadres of Lootas, Speed Freeks, and highly expendable swarms of Gretchin, Noshdakka is a deadly and unpredictable opponent to even the best-prepared enemies.Big Mek Wurrzog - Big Mek Wurrzog has gathered a small warband around him and his workshop, located somewhere in the Slinnar Drift region of the Jericho Reach. Wurrzog has a fascination with the technology of the Tau Empire, and his band of Orks has made a number of raids against the Velk'han Sept. The Big Mek has, in fact, crafted a special "kustom" force field by looting one of the Tau Shield Drones and modifying it (often by applying various whacks with his wrench). He keeps the drone on a chained tether to keep its protection for himself. Wurrzog has somehow discovered the presence of a number of Deathwatch Watch Stations, and he is currently planning a particularly "kunning" raid to try and capture some of the Deathwatch's esoteric wargear for his own purposes.Mek Dagogg - Dagogg's cunning as a Mek could be seen in the terrible carnage he wrought as part of the Red WAAAGH! During the assault against the Obsidian Glaives Space Marine Chapter upon Obstiria, it was Dagogg who knocked the orbital defence platforms out of the sky by flinging them at each other using his Shokk Amplifier (though it promptly broke after this one exhibition of its awesome power). In the following ground battle, and with the aid of his Runtherd, Grabber, he was responsible for the nightmare that was "Snotling rain". Tragically there were only a handful of survivors on either side to tell the tale of Dagogg's cunning, and the Mek had to content himself with Grabber's vacant grins of approval instead of the widespread acclaim he felt he deserved.
