Ork Stompa- Warhammer 40,000

Ork Stompa mech, animated Warhammer 40,000 pixel art by SteelJoe converted into Wallpaper Engine.

Stompas are enormous walking fortresses. Clad in layer upon layer of scrap-iron armour, bristling with dakka and massive motorised combat weapons, they live up to their name by stomping across the battlefield and annihilating everything in their path.

Every Stompa is a unique creation, usually the product of several Mekaniaks' fevered brains and countless solar hours of grot slave labour. However, as they rise up within their teetering scaffolds and approach a state of completion, certain key similarities manifest in nearly all Stompas.

First and foremost, these super-heavy walkers are all built as fat-bellied and belligerent Orkoid figures, effigies of the Ork gods Gork and Mork that stand as tall as a hab-block. They are usually powered by massive internal boilers and furnaces that link to a forest of enormous smokestacks and vents, which bristle from the Stompa's back.

One arm is a gangling hydraulic affair the size of a docking crane, which ends in a monstrous chainsaw known as a Mega-choppa. This weapon can obliterate entire squads of infantry with a single swing, or carve super-heavy battletanks apart with a sustained assault.

As they lumber into battle with black smoke billowing from their stacks, Stompas carry mobs of Orks aboard their cramped transport decks. Once amongst the enemy lines, they disgorge their bellowing passengers to wreak havoc before stomping towards the biggest enemy they can see and barging into it with the force of an avalanche. Few are the foes who can survive such a crushing charge, and even these will soon be torn apart by the combined fury of the Stompa and the frenzied Greenskins who boil around its feet. So do Stompas vent the wrath of Gork and Mork upon the battlefield.
