 Ork Transports
As such, Ork tribes began to rely more increasingly upon the practice of building their own transports (or "Truckz" as they became known).
The typical Ork transport is a giant can, and is incapable of generating the energy required to power large numbers of weapons systems.
Unlike their Imperial/Civillian Merchant counterparts, Ork transport pilots are courageous to the point of foolhardiness, and will not scatter in the event of an attack (on the contrary, chances are they'll be pleased!).

 Review of the game Ork
Ork is an entertaining, and grey matter flexing puzzle/action game that seems to be appealing to the ‘Shadow of the beast’ crowd, though here puzzle solving takes centre-stage, and whilst there is still an element of action, it is decidedly more understated compared to that of the aforementioned title.
That said, Ork is more than just some kind of seminal sequel with a change of focus, it has its own mystique and characteristics which are uniquely its own.
Ork is a very polished, highly enjoyable game, with loads of thought-provoking puzzles, and has a striking visual style that is quite intoxicating.

Ork is the blind elder priest who believes he has met the “Great Destroyer,” who is actually Grendel.
In this is the fact that Ork has combined his reason with his faith in order to rationalize his beliefs, an idea introduced by St. Thomas Aquinas.
His only worry is the public appearance of the church as he says that Ork should proclaim his ravings “in public, where it does us some good” (134) and their credibility with the public, “Lunatic priests are bad business.

If falling back Orks are within 6 inches of other Orks at the end of their movement, they can make a Ld test- if they pass the mobs combine, and the falling back Mob rallies and can immediately move up to 6 inches to get into Coherency.

 Themed Army Ideas: Striped Ork-eaters of Auros IX   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
One of the biggest problems you will face is that most of the units in both an Ork and a Guard army have statistics drastically superior to that of the average Grot.
Orks are always abusing Grots, yelling at them to fix this, or fetch that, or simply smacking them around because they're in a bad mood.
But sometimes, to the surprise of everyone involved (particularly the Grots), the Grots manage to organize sufficiently to become a power unto themselves, whether that power is covert (and the organization entirely underground) or overt (and the Grots a military and political power on their own).
