Look what’s new from forge world, Ork Mega-Dread… It’s about the size of a defiler,  and it’s going to cost me a fortune… Dang…I want one! But that thing cost a bomb!

The Body = £34.25
The killkannon arm = £15.65
The  rippa klaw arm = £15.65

Total =  (£65.55 + 15% (shipment fees))
= £75.38
Converted over to RM = RM437.21

400+bucks!! that is if the exchange rates remain at 5.8  and if the government won’t charge me taxes and then force me to pay another sum for transporting the goods to the nearest post office in my area… A girl can’t even buy anything without being fully extorted…

Special Rules
Ramshackle Monster: The Mega-Dread is a smoke-belching monstrosity, heavy plated with ablative armour and is a difficult machine to stop once it’s got going! It has a 5+ Invulnerable save against attacks.

Rippa-Klaw: The Rippa Klaw is counted as a dreadnought close combat weapon, and adds +1 to the result rolled on the vehicle damage chart. Additionally in Cities of Death games a model equipped with a Rippa-Klaw always counts as having a Wrecker Stratagem.

Mega-Charga: This upgrade may be used once per game. At the start of the movement phase, roll a D6, on the roll of a ‘1’ the Mega-Dread is immobilised (note the Ramshackle Monster rules do no apply to this damage), on any other result, the Mega-Dread gains the Fleet universal special rule for this turn.

A Mega-Dread is a Heavy Support choice for an Ork army.
