The '''Bad Moons''' are an [[Ork]] clan, and as their teeth grow faster than anyone else's, they are the richest of the Ork Clans (this shows that, at least in one case, clan affiliation can have a physical effect). This is not considered an unfair advantage, because other Clans figure that they can always bash a Bad Moon Ork over the head and take his teef (teeth). They trade with other Orks to get the biggest guns, the flashiest gear, and the best food, but are not as concerned with [[close combat]] as other orks. They have been noted to have a greater proportion of [[Wyrdboyz]] than other clans, but they still do not appear past the [[Feral Ork]] stage. The signature mob of the Bad Moons are the [[Flash Gitz]], Orks with devastating [[Kustom Shoota]]s. Their symbols consist of yellow crescent moons and black flames.

The Bad Moons are an Ork clan, and as their teef grow faster than anyone else's, they are the richest of the Ork Clans. This is not considered an unfair advantage, because other Clans figure that they can always bash a Bad Moon Ork over the head and take his teef. As a result, Bad Moons must use part of their wealth to purchase the best gear in order to defend themselves against opportunists seeking to redistribute the wealth; their Warbosses are known to possess Kustom weapons and Battlewagons.[1]

They trade with other Orks to get the biggest guns, the flashiest gear, and the best food (therefore often appearing fatter than the average Ork), but are not as concerned with close combat as other orks, acting as a type of merchant class within larger Ork society. They have been noted to have a greater proportion of Gretchin slaves. The signature mob of the Bad Moons are the Flash Gitz, Orks with devastating Kustom Shootas. Their symbols consist of yellow crescent moons and black flames.[1]
