Gargant

Added a instance of a Gargant attack
A 'standard' bipedal Gargant is normally around the height of a four storey building, if that building had several large guns and [[Kustom Force Field|kustom power fields]] bolted onto it. A typical Ork Gargant (if there can be such a thing) may field 2 or 3 'Soopaguns' - Titan-Killer equivalent ballistic weapons. It may also sport a small number of additional weapons, likely built into the chest or head sections. A massive Titan close-combat weapon may also be featured, likely a Mega-Choppa. Gargants with such choppy attachments are sometimes referred to as '''Slasherz''' or '''Slasher-Gargants'''.
 
One of the more interesting instances of a Gargant was near a ((prometheum)) processing plant on the ice planet ((Simia Orichalcae)).
The ((597th Valhallan Ice Warriors)) had been sent to deal with a ((ork)) invasion force. ((Commissar)) ((Ciaphas Cain)) described that the Gargant be the end of all of them, and is even more so described by retired ((general)) (Jennit Sulla)) in her book ((Like a Pheonix from the Flames: The founding of the 597th)). The Gargant however veered of its course to attack a newly discovered ((Necron)) force, fresh from their tomb. Sulla describes "massive metal chunks falling from the Gargant" as "odd pyramids blasted at it". These are more than likely ((Necron Monoliths)), the Necron threat had not really surfaced at this time so any and all descriptions of the Necron were blurry at best.
