Mekboy
![]() |
Mekboyz are a type of Ork Oddboy in Warhammer 40,000. They are in charge of technology, making them the Orky equivalent of a Techmarine. Their knowledge is purely instinctual; Mekboyz have no idea how their weapons and vehicles work, they just do. This is thanks to the Orks' innate pyschic field; so long as the Orks believe the inventions should work, they just will. The extent to which this is true has varied throughout the history of 40k as a game; in earlier editions, this meant literally anything the Orks believed (making Mekboy the easiest job in the universe; just take a piece of metal, make it roughly gun shaped, and watch it work), but more recently this has been toned down to an extent.
