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)) [[promethium]] processing plant on the ice planet (([[Simia Orichalcae))]]. The (([[Valhallan 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)) ([[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.
