Orkeosaurus

The Orkeosaurus is the largest breed of Squiggoth that is used by the Orks. The Orkeosaurus is larger than all other Squiggoths, including the Gargantuan Squiggoth. The Orkeosaurus is usually found amongst the Feral Ork tribes and is rarely, if ever, seen in use by the more advanced Ork clans. The massive creature is used as both a beast of burden and as a beast of war by the Feral Orks. The Orkeosaurus is capable of carrying up to twelve Orks or Nobz and several Gretchin into combat upon its back-mounted deck. These Orks will man any weapon that are installed upon the armoured decking. These weapons can include twin-linked Big Shootas and Big Gunz. The Orkeosaurus' hide is as thick and protective as armoured plating, and can withstand tremendous amounts of punishment, the Orks also augment this by attaching armoured plating to the creatures, giving them even more durability. The creature itself is fully capable of smashing infantry and light vehicles beneath its massive limbs, and can use its large tusks to gore enemy combatants that get too close. If a Orkeosaurus is mortally wounded during a fight it may take it a long while to actually relise that it is hurt, or indeed, dead and it may go into an uncontrollable panic induced rage and thrash around and attack anything in sight, both friend and foe. The Orkeoausrus is capable of rampaging like this for up to ten minutes until it finally dies. The creature can also accidentally kill itself by falling down steep terrain or into deep water.
