It probably works because the orks think it will.

Isn't that the base of all orktech?

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Can someone tell me about the different poll options? What's the difference between the options?

Keep throwing spears.

EDIT: If our spit is yellow, spit on a weirdboy and throw it at them. Yellow is the flashiest colour meaning it'll combine with the wierdboy's psychic abilities and explode.

As for making the shoota work, point it at the enemy and squeeze it until it shoots. Squeezing works well for getting grots to do what we want, so it should work the same here.

I edited my last post with a few ideas of what we can do. Thanks for the links, Xvareon.

Oh Cheesecake, do any of our squigs have venom that we can milk from them?

You aren't in charge of the squigs, only the grots. And the grots are in charge of the squigs. And they're too busy flying all over the place and dying instead of doing something useful.

And the thing on ork beliefs, it's more of a collective hive-mind thing that dictates whether something works the way it does or not. Just one ork believing he's bigga' and betta' or something won't make him bigga' and betta'. That's why a LOT of orks thinking one ork is bigga' and betta' make the warboss bigga' and betta'.

(There was actually a line in Don't Feed the Warboss like that. Are you the Warboss because you're bigger and stronger? No, I'z is bigga' and stronga' because I'z is da boss!)

So unless you convince all the orks in your tribe that your shoota has more dakka than the 'umies (and they probably won't since they're feral and literally saw you pick it up from them) just believing and hoping you roll a 6 won't make it happen...

Yeah, at the moment the best thing we can do is to kill as many IG as we can in order to be impressive. Hopefully if we do good enough we can get back into the Boss' good graces and shank him in due time.

I still think we should throw the weirdboy after covering him in spit (only if our spit is yellow). Even if most orks don't think that's possible, WE think it's possible and we'll do it. It won't work, as you just said, but we shouldn't NOT do something just because it won't work. We're an ork, after all. (Besides, weirdboys are weird so they'll probs explode anyway just by casting a spell or something.)

Well, we can also try to get other orks to reverse engineer it, having the idea that since orks are better and stronger than humies, then any gun made by orks will also be better and stronger-er!

We'll probably have to do the reverse-engineering ourselves if we want to keep all the guns to ourselves. If we succeed, we'll prove to the others that we have the blessing of Mork (ork god of cunning) and that we're the smartest ork. EASY +1 bonus to mechanical skills.

If we tried that I'd fully expect the wierdboy to stomp us. Also Ork saliva is probably green.

Well, we can certainly take up the time-honoured tradition of 'looting' enemy stuff. This mostly involves putting spikes and stuff on it, and making it shoot more. They don't care much about accuracy or safety.

I has a lore question.

Nids make a shadow in the warp, effectively rendering warp related things null, ships can't jump, and all that right? Ork tech works half because of their belief functioning via the warp right?

Why does Ork tech work around Nids?
