Manned by a mob of Orks thirsting for more plunder and carnage, it hurtles into battle leaving destruction in its wake. It’s a long distance defensive tank. Stay at range and cover your allies, as you become the anchor keeping everything going. Use your grot-guided missile to cause devastating damage to your enemies and change the flow of battle one missile at a time.

With no movement ability, driving down hills and managing your boost well is the key to keeping an above average speed. Firing the main Kannon backwards as you're driving can actually provide a small boost of acceleration, but you're usually better off shooting at enemies.

Every Kannon shot has the opportunity to turn the flow of the battlefield when used correctly. Get to a place where you can have an overview of the battle. Find out where your mob is fighting and shoot down key targets from afar. Knowing who’s the most important target to shoot at and making sure you keep up the pressure is key to being a good Looted Wagon player. Keep an eye on targets trying to get close to you to take you down, and make sure you get a head-start on damaging them before they get close enough to fight you.

This is where the Wartrike comes in. If you see your friendly Deffkilla Wartrike gunning for the enemy Rukkatrukk Squigbuggy, help them finish the job with a well-timed Kannon shot. [b]Shokkjump Dragsta –[/b] Found a great target that’s far away from the enemies? Equipped with the Shokk Rifle the Shokkjump Dragsta can assist you in long distance battles. Having an enemy sneaking up on you? The Shokkjump Dragsta is on its way to intercept at Warp Speed.

[b]Boomdakka Snazzwagon –[/b] Being one of the slower vehicles, the Boomdakka Snazzwagon will struggle to get past your Mob to get to you. And with their inaccurate Dakka they are no threat to you at a distance. [h1]Weak Against [/h1] [b]Deffkilla Wartrike –[/b] To you, this is a very dangerous vehicle which can easily slip past your mob and get to you in the back. Without any help this pesky git will take you down in no time. Try to keep an eye on enemy Deffkilla Wartrikes and be at a place where you can get help in case they get too close. [b]Kustom Boosta Blasta –[/b] Shooting from afar the Kustom Boosta Blasta can use walls and terrain to avoid your shots to keep you on your toes. If you lose track of your health against this one, he will make sure to remind you.
