Lobba
From Lexicanum
Lobbas are Ork artillery pieces, or Big Gunz manned by a pair of Gretchin. They lob their payload in high arcs, much like mortars, in order to fire over intervening obstacles. Most often Lobbas physically work in a similar way to mortars, however rockets and even medieval trebuchet style devices have been reported.1 The crew have a tendency to fake a dud loaded in the artilary piece however, and the joke of firing the weapon while a Gretchin is in the process of retriving the shot often costs said Gretchin his life, or at least an arm, in the process.2
