Freebooterz
Freebooterz are pirates that are Orks. They tend to distingish their leaders apart with Hats, and appear in Dawn of War II.
Orks have a tendancy to become awesome. This in known by all. Pirates are awesome. Space is awesome. How about PIRATES IN SPESS? Freebootas are everything a pirate should be. Also, they will make you walk the plank. In deep space.
Reasons
An Ork can become a Freeboota for any number of reasons:
- They could be, as is the classic example, too wealthy for anyone else to stand and be kicked out of society, only to buy a ship and get off planet before someone does some real kicking (around the face area, to the upstart freeboota in question).
- They could simply be a jaded mek or warlord bored with fighting the same enemies, and defect to a more exciting life in the vastness of space.
- They could be rich mercenaries.
- They could decide to defect form a Waaagh! to fight whoever has "dat shiny ting ova der," and get so far off course that they decide to head for the nearest port and raise hell.
- They could be a nob who mutinied a ship and took it's warp drive "fer a spin."
- They could have woken up one day, decided "Hey, I wants ter be a pirate!", and then becomes a pirate.
