	The Shokk Attack Gun is one of the only [[Ork]]-portable weapons that force the wielder to stay still while firing, and quite possibly one of the strangest weapons in their arsenal. It's basically an oversized tellyporta gun, that transports someone to a location using warp travel. Unprotected. Orks are too smart to get roped into being living ammunition (despite the fact that the law of averages would mean there has to be orks nuts enough to try it), and grots are too feisty to constantly catch and feed into the gun. So, the Meks rely on [[snotling]]s, who are too dumb to realize they're about to be [[Anal Circumference\|monumentally screwed]] until its too late.

	When the snotling gets fired through the gun, they briefly travel through the Warp without any shielding, and so are completely subjected to seeing the multitude of horrors contained within (and remember: time functions differently in the Warp. A second in realspace could very well have been hours, days, or even longer for the snotling). If the snotling successfully makes it out: he's driven completely out of his fucking mind, and will proceed to [[rip and tear]] their way through anything in front of them until they die, including vehicles as the Mek will teleport the snotling right inside the armor, so the crew's stuck with what's essentially a tiny roid-raging slasher villain inside a confined space. How exactly snotlings suddenly possess the power to tear open powered-armor opponents, even after being driven insane, is not fully explained (you have a snotling materialize inside your helmet and see how useful the helmet turns out to be), though realistic it would not be unheard of for the snotling to have been changed by the Warp into a [[Chaos Spawn]]-'''AGHOAUGHGORKSAVEMENOUHOIUGHONESM'''{{BLAM}} As my predecessor said, the Warp can turn even mere Snotlings into unnamable horrors.
