Spotlight: Da Snagwagon
Da Snagwagon is the latest new Elite to join the ranks of the upcoming October patch!
When the green tide needs to get somewhere fast and (relatively) safe, Da Snagwagon is always up to the task. A large Ork Battlewagon, Da Snagwagon’s main purpose is to get Boyz across the battlefield alive, but can also throw a big wrench in an enemy’s plans. Powerful crowd control abilities and sneaky attacks can mean bad news for any army mistaking Da Snagwagon as a simple Ork bus.
Da Snagwagon is a support vehicle that adds utility in the form of powerful crowd control elements to any Ork army. The Snagwagon’s lifta droppa traktor beam can be used to propel allied units across the map or levitate and knock back enemy units. Unique to Da Snagwagon, its auto attack will levitate enemies in midair and, if not interrupted, will slam them back to the ground – causing damage and knocking back units in a radius around the target.
Da Snagwagon unleashes a wave of force that knocks back enemies and moves itself in the opposite direction.
Grab ‘Em
Da Snagwagon picks up an allied unit with its lifta droppa, creating a shot absorber around them. Using this ability enables you to use the Launch ‘Em and Drop ‘Em abilities.
The target is automatically dropped if Da Snagwagon is disrupted, issues another order, or if its shot absorber is destroyed.
Grab 'Em and Launch 'Em!
Launch ‘Em
Throws the current target to the target position. If Da Snagwagon has scrapnel charges, it consumes a charge and rains down scrap on the target position, dealing damage that rips through cover.
Drop ‘Em
Orders Da Snagwagon to drop its current target.
Loot Scrap
Adds three scrapnel charges.
When Da Snagwagon is deployed, Deffkoptas can attach a traktor beam to an allied unit, granting a regenerating shield. Reactivating the ability, moving too far from the target, or getting stunned will disable the shield.
Command – Blazin’ Buzzsaw
Deffkoptas leave behind a trail of flames when they use Buzzsaw Blitz, causing damage over time and slowing units that pass through it. The damage from multiple blazes does not stack.
