These cybernetic walker units represent the pinnacle of Ork engineering. Employing similar technology to the Space Marines’ Dreadnought, these large deadly melee machines require an Ork host to be wired into a Deff Dredd in order to pilot it. Armed with gigantic Choppas, a charge from a Deff Dread can do devastating damage, instantly slowing the enemy squad. These Ork walkers are even deadly in death, with a Deff Dread causing damage over time where they were slain. Although they might not be well equipped to deal with long ranged fire, their Loot grants them a Shield which also increases their speed, helping them to survive a little longer.
These are possible to build from large (red glowing) piles of Scrap, which can eventually be made by Waagh towers if they're left alone to build on top of their existing piles. Building them from Scrap costs half as much as normal and they are a VERY powerful unit; not many enemy forces can handle a full squad of Deff Dreads charging at them!
