Loota Wreckin' Krew

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

A Loota Wreckin' Krew is a band of Orks that are assembled by Lootas before a big battle takes place. Taking the fastest vehicles they can find, these Krews go out to find the prize scrap before they lose it to first class gubbins. After kitting their vehicles with the tools of their trade, they go forth across the battlefield in order to engage in stealing even before the last enemy corpse hits the ground. Lootas such as those of the Death Skulls clan often steal away anything from nuts and bolts to cybernetics as well as super-heavy vehicles from their enemies. Wrecks of enemy vehicles are considered great and precious prizes after they are blown up. Loota Wreckin' Krews consist of an assortment of ramshackle vehicles filled with Lootas, Meks and Grot attendants.[1]

Their Trukks have deffguns strapped to their sides, and sometimes battle cannons, in order to attack any enemy vehicle that catches their sights. The Krews of these vehicles engage in wolf pack tactics, whereby they target a single vehicle up close, firing their weapons at point blank range whilst spiked Wreckin' Balls are sent into the vulnerable portions of their unfortunate target. This leads to the enemy vehicle being disabled and its crew eventually cut to shreds, when the real looting by the Krew begins. Krews enjoy the act of looting immensely, as demonstrated by the common Loota saying, "To loot sommink properly, you have to kill it a bit first".[1]
