Unrelated to the video, but I have a homework suggestion: ranking everyone’s bodyguard unit. Basically, which unit is best at making sure your important hero doesn’t die, usually be working as a meat shield.
@@JonathanNormandy It would work one of two ways: one of your goblins explodes and gets instantly replaced by the one that was launched, or you suddenly grow one goblin taller and are now 8 goblins in a trench coat.
"A Zzap Gun consists of a wire-bound tube and a powerful generator at the back end of it with a lot of custom 'gubbinz'. Although potent, its power is determined by the willpower of the grot firing the weapon, as its firing lever also electrocutes the Gretchin firing it."
And why don't they get an Ork (who has a much more repressed pain receptor) to pull the lever? They like seeing the way a grot hops around when they're on fire
@@arandomkobold8403 Because the Orks all want the guns that go "Boom", not a weedy lil "freeem" sound. Leave the zapper to the grots. And, of course, any grot that asks an Ork to do something as menial as "pull the lever" is just signing up to be eaten on the spot.
@@arandomkobold8403 Also, sometimes when the Zzap beam is too strong (in the old rules for this weapon you rolled 2D6 for the strength of the shot) the beam would suck a Grot crew member/gunner into the beam killing the individual and that's hilarious for an Ork to see and kunnin to force someone else to suffer that.

I like that out of all the kitchen appliances that Brad could use as an example of straight-forward naming, he picked Refrigerator and Microwave.

Not just that, but how absurd they are. I am 90% certain there is a Tyranid where the model itself is just dumb as a brick locomotion for the gun, which is also a tyranid, that is smart, which itself has a third tyranid stuck to it, that creates yet more tyranids for use as ammunition. Which is just absolutely at or above Orky levels of ridiculousness. You have all the boring psychic and "its a blade" weapons but you get some really silly things with the guns they do have.
The Stikkbomb is not just the appetizer to melee! Some orks are kitted out with a stikkbomb as their only melee weapon and still have the choppa weapon profile. This means that stikkbombs are also choppas.
I love this format, i'm not a player, i just paint, but all the tierlist/discussions are so fun and entertaining. Btw I totally love the old orks models and the killa kans, with their strange goofiness. but great job, as usual!
Deffguns are the best gun in Orks for one major reason. Literally any gun that isnt an Ork or Imperium gun can be a deff gun. Like yes, the gunz are supposed to be whatever you want them to be but for Shootas, Burnas and Mega Blastas there is at least some idea of what theyre supposed to look like. With a Deff Gun, the only qualitifaction that it needs is that the gun is bigger than the Boy holding it.
I got into Orks back in 3rd Edition, when Lootas had you directly steal the weapon options from Space Marine or Imperial Guard codexes, so you could have Orks with mortars, or heavy bolters, or _sniper rifles_ (still with Orky accuracy). They were the most customisable, eclectic, kit-bashed unit on the table. Along with looted vehicles also being directly stolen Imperial vehicles, they really sold the idea of an army of ramshackle scavengers and thievin' gitz. ...then the next edition they became the deffgun boyz we still have today, where every one of them has the same identical stat profile and visual silhouette, and everyone was very sad forever.
@@Jebu911 subjective, but i personally agree. The Schock attack gun is the best gun in 40k. But the Rapidfire flayed explosive baby cannon that is the deathspitter is a very close secound.
Depending on which edition you play, the Shokk Attack Gun can also fail in hilarious ways. Some of the options I remember: Explodes (boring). Grot fails to teleport, gets shredded by the device, dealing neglegible damage in a flamethrower cone. Teleports the Mek to the target instead. Instead of the Grot, a wave of demonic slime emerges at the target position, dealing serious damage and immobilising any vehicle within several inches.
Honestly the weapons tierlists and the homework episodes are some of my favorites that you guys do, It's fun and kind of a great way to get an overview of the various factions.
I think my favorite lore bit about zzapgunz is that the inperium captured an ork mekboy, and while holding him for observation watched him build a working zzapgun from scrap and junk in his cell that he then used to try to escape
30:10 You don't know how high end lasers sound. Agun makes one boom as it goes off, and a scream as the shell ripped through the air forcing it out of the way at super sonic speeds before hitting something with a clang. Maybe a boom if it's explosive. A lascanon superheats air and the target until molecules break apart into atoms, a solid Line of explosion and noise as everything in a line explodes in high energy physics, and everyone gets to enjoy rolling thunder for a moment depending on how far you're shooting.
There's so many animations of space marines being invincible badasses, but i want one of a space marine captain giving a rousing speech to his battle brothers before being immediately killed by a shokk attack gun.
The Shokk attack gun is probably the most advanced ork portable weapon they still have the knowledge to put together. All the spinning blades makes me think it uses the Casimir effect to indirectly affect reality, so it basically peels open a short duration tube through the Warp by just folding away space at both ends.
Just to defend the Traktor Kannon, it can be absolutely hilarious when the grots set the polarity wrong and the whole artillery piece goes flying towards whatever they aimed at (taking some grots with it of course).
Counterpoint on the Mega-Slugga: a Mek wanting to have the killiest possible gun possible while still being able to have one hand free to bash skulls with a Strength 12 saw is extremely Orky.
I'm absolutely in on an episode about eldar weapons (even all falvours combined) - I'd love to hear the explanation from Brad what a harlequins kiss, the humble splinter rifle and the D-weapons are. Those are all top tier grim dark things imho!
Re: Melta Pistols. They’re the 40k equivalent of a sawn-off shotgun. Impractical except at point-blank range, but when you need raw stopping power at close range in a compact form, it’s arguably the best.
You kinda got the wrong approach to pistols. It's not a matter of "I want a big gun but then make it small". Instead, it's: "I am here to hit people with my sword. I am so committed to hitting people with my sword that the only concession I will make to the possibility that people might not be in sword range is bringing something that I can fit in a pocket and use in one hand. And now I would like somebody to take that pocket gun and make it as overpowered and dangerous as possible."
I like the idea that the Old Ones were just really into playing Quake and Half Life when they were designing the Orks, so they programmed the meks with the ability to recreate the tele-frags from Quake and the Phys gun from HL2.
Are you really sure that when an Ork connects a giant laser to their vehicle, it doesn't just start sounding like the loudest thing ever because the mek hit it a few times with a wrench?
Squig Launcha A: YES This is probably the funniest thing in the entire video, is it from the actual stat block? Because there's your S tier justification right there; you show it to me during a game, you win by default; I'll have to forfeit because I'm going to spend the whole match laughing my a$$ off at this!
About stick bombz: The Codex (or at least previous codices) explicitly states that it can be used as a melee weapon. Orks like to wack it on enemies until it explodes.
back in the olden days of 5th edition when I started Warhammer the Shokk attack gun shot a giant blast template and rolled 2d6 to determine strength (consulting a table for "fun" results if doubles were rolled. if you rolled double ones instead of attacking it blew up the big mek carrying it.
This was one of my favorite episodes. I had a dumb smile the whole way through, and it was nice hearing that you two also where laugthing at the stupid great guns
Been reading The Twice Dead King book series and it contains some excellent descriptions on both the firing and aftermath of a bunch of different Necron weapons, I’d love to see an episode on those.
There should be some variety of ork pistols/sluggas that get a +1 to hit if fired into melee. No gameplay justification for this I just think it would be cool and orky.
More orktober please! This is good fun and you could absolutely through in some AoS works to spice it up too! I do enjoy these style of videos, especially for the xenos factions. Love the Druhkari vs Aeldari weapons. Could be interesting to have Tau vs Necron ranged weapons too. Mostly because I like rail guns and want to hear a physicist talk about the feasibility of Tau or Necron weapons.
Been following Warhammer for about 7 years now. Just now getting into building my first 40k army of Death Guards. After watching this video I kinda want to build at least a 1k point army of orks now! Thank you guys for the laughs. Your vids are always fun to watch/ listen too.
Having listened to this by virtue of being a Patreon - The Bestest orky weapons are all benign tech turned into a weapon. The grey Knights contribution, epic 😅😂
i loved this episode even mroe than most of your episodes, i'm immediately gonna go dig out the imperium one to watch, and i'm definitely curious about the necron one! also the highest possible praise i could give you guys is that i immediately booted up speed freeks after watching
Orks had some crazier stuff back when the game was more random and GW didn't give a single toss about competitive games (or balance generally). The Shokk Attack Gun had "Strength: 2d6" and if you rolled 11 or 12, you then had to consult a table to see what went wrong. Sometimes that meant "it's resolved at Strength: Instant Death, no roll", sometimes that meant "the user explodes" or "The user instantly redeploys by Deep Strike". Sometimes it meant "the user is teleported into close combat with the target", and sometimes it meant "the snotling is just sprayed out as red paste. It's a low strength Template (ie flamer) weapon". I feel like their energy weapons (Zap/Blasta) should at least have a special "Zap-Boom" rule where, any time they kill something with Deadly Demise, it automatically triggers the deadly demise. Something a little bit silly and orky, but without replacing "the normal rules of the game" with a new random table to roll on.
Seeing you guys mention stickbomb without talking about the buzz-bomb is very understandable, but crushes my heart a little bit. It used to be an attachement in 9E (and existed way before that), it's a hive of insect squig attached on a stick that an ork throws at someone else in the hope they die. It is such a stupid weapon to use in a sci-fi univers and that's why I love it.
The best part about the Deffstorm Mega Shoota is that it has a dedicated gunner on the back of it. It's not like a Knight's weapon, it's a goddamn *turret.*
The Zzzap gun was underrated. It fires a lightning bolt, and the best part is… the strength changes every time you shoot it. Ork weapons are best when they’re unpredictable.
so here's the thing I love about stick bombs, and It's from the mike brooks orks novels, which is that if there's no good choppas on hand, Orks WILL use stick bombs as a club, knowing damn well there's a chance it goes off. explosive melee, how can you hate on it?
I would love to see one of these episodes on Tau weapons, if only to hear about how the weird fish-cow-people have better plasma guns than the Imperium who've had 30,000 years of experience with em
Not sure if anyone else mentioned. But the pic for the zapp gun is actually the cannon. Pic shown for kannon was actually a big shoota. P.s. i image the zapp gun throws out lightning instead of lasers. Making substantially more exciting for orks.
for orks you got 2 design philosophies, something that makes a really big noise with a bigger explosion like your thump gun and rokkit launcha or something that's going to be zoggin funny like the tellyporta blasta or the burnas it's how everything should be made
Snazzgun being in S makes a lot of sense. Flash Gitz are a cool unit, there's a reason why a certain couple of blokes named their animation channel after an Ork unit when making 40k parodies and Space King.
Honorable mention: the Desolation Squad missile launchers
They managed to kill Maude Flanders with one of these
They will be very useful for proxying or kitbashing the upcoming Tankbusta kill team

This is everything I wanted from a ranking of the ork weapons. Head empty, no thoughts, only dakka.
The Zzzap gun was underrated. It fires a lightning bolt, and the best part is… the strength changes every time you shoot it.
Ork weapons are best when they’re unpredictable.
I like how some of the shootas look like the classic, big tube British machine guns
so here's the thing I love about stick bombs, and It's from the mike brooks orks novels, which is that if there's no good choppas on hand, Orks WILL use stick bombs as a club, knowing damn well there's a chance it goes off. explosive melee, how can you hate on it?
I would love to see one of these episodes on Tau weapons, if only to hear about how the weird fish-cow-people have better plasma guns than the Imperium who've had 30,000 years of experience with em
This is in the top 3 best thumbnails, that shit is CRISPY
Brad would absolutely love the crazy rules the Shokk attack gun had back in 5th edition
Please, anything but more space marines. I don't even play orks and I had a lot of fun with this episode!
Loved the achievement unlocked. Good edit!
Worth mentioning that the 'thump gun' is the real life nickname of the M79 grenade launcher that the Ork weapon is based on.
"Looking at our asses..."
I am glad this is a podcast and not a stream or vod.
Tuesday mornings are always the best whenever y’all upload!
As an engineering student in college, I love the Orks because their weapons actively break the laws of physics in order to work
"Wiffin you deres two woofs... Just kiddin. Datz snotlings."
*kra-zzzap*
"Now deres three"
46:07 So they're like the Soviet kamikaze dogs that were supposed to blow up tanks in WW2?
This episode was exactly what I needed today, thank you
Not sure if anyone else mentioned. But the pic for the zapp gun is actually the cannon.
Pic shown for kannon was actually a big shoota.
P.s. i image the zapp gun throws out lightning instead of lasers.
Making substantially more exciting for orks.
The other armies weapons can wait till after you've done a vehicles tier list for Orks. We're the most fun
for orks you got 2 design philosophies, something that makes a really big noise with a bigger explosion like your thump gun and rokkit launcha or something that's going to be zoggin funny like the tellyporta blasta or the burnas
it's how everything should be made
I’d love to hear a tier list of not just tyranids guns, but what what of theirs you even consider a gun
you really need to go through the crazyness of "Ere we go" and the even crazier "Freebooterz" during Orktober
Thinking quickly, the Ork Mek constructs a Kustom Shoota, using only some string, a squirrel and a Shoota.
Finally a video I won't skip through!
Snazzgun being in S makes a lot of sense. Flash Gitz are a cool unit, there's a reason why a certain couple of blokes named their animation channel after an Ork unit when making 40k parodies and Space King.

39:19 all bubble blowin' babies will be beaten senseless by every able-bodied patron in the bar
I wanna see an ork staple a bunch of nerf guns together and it actually work as a shoota
I'm loving these weapon videos, keep 'em comin' boyz!
