The Pile O Gunz! serves as the weapons research centers of the Orks in Dawn of War. It is available for construction once the Da Boyz Hut is built. This Building allows the player to enhance the strength of Infantry, Heavy Infantry and Commander Units. Constructing a Pile O Gunz! costs 150 Requisition and 50 Power. Since each building can only research one upgrade at a time, it is recommended to that the player builds multiple Piles O Gunz! to hasten the research time. The building features 1200 Hit Points and like all artificial constructs, it has no Morale.
