A Gargant is what most would call as the Orks closest thing to an Ork's main battle titan, resembling its smaller Stompa cousins, the Gargant is equivalent to the Imperial Reaver Titan and its most often mocked/praised by /tg/ for its infamous Trouser Cannon and goofy looking appearance. The construction of a Gargant (Or anything larger) is a sheer sign that something craptastic is about to begin on a planet. Like most Ork machinery, each Gargants are a unique although crude effigy of the gods Gork and Mork.
Variants
Like its smaller cousin, the Gargant has a wide range of variants and flavors for an Ork to choose from.
Mekboy Gargant
Similar to a Mek's Stompa only bigger, the Mekboy Gargant is constructed by a Big Mek and is often a sign of prestige and pride upon completion. Like the Stompa, the Mekboy Gargant is a more shooty variant, relying on massive Dakka or other similar shenanigans in order to face opposing titans. These beasts are armed with a wide range of guns such as massive Zzap guns, cannons, Lifta-Droppa tractor beams and the like.
Goff Rock-an-Rolla
The Goffs decided that putting a giant steam roller on their Gargant seems fun and thus the Goff Rock-an-Rolla was born. Essentially a Gargant that can demolish infantry and smaller vehicles into an icky paste of blood and mush, works quite well with armies that rely on massive infantry numbers such as the 'Nids but falls obviously short against Titans and other super heavies (Seriously that roller is only going to tickle the feet of a Warlord Titan).
Goff Klawstompa
Similar to the Goff Stompa, the Goff Klawstompa switch its gun arm for another close range weapon in order to shred enemy titans up close and personal...if they could even get there before being reduced to molten metal by a Volcano Cannon to the face that is.
Steam Gargant
What happens when a bunch of feral Ork Boilerboyz decides to get something massive rolling, this ramshackle machine as its names suggests, is a steampunk version of the traditional Gargant riding on giant threads instead of feet and armed with a giant axe/mace/hammer, various catapults and trebuchets to launch squigs or bombs, ballistas and a workable siege ramp making it a fusion of every single medieval siege engine all in one. Is powered by a giant boiler engine that can work on anything burnable for fuel. Its run by Spannas which are Orks that maintain this beast.
