Okay, okay... what's the official word on Shokk Attack Guns? I've got a pile of them, and the rulebook contradicts itself on what to do with them:
Page 106:
Supa-Zzap-Guns: This category includes the more esoteric weapons devised by Ork mekaniaks to deal with armoured targets. Examples include shokk attack guns, supa-lifta-droppas and bubble chuckers. They are usually only mounted on Gargants, but will sometimes be built for siege work in the same manner as a soopa gun.

ORK BIG GUNZ
Ork Mekaniaks constantly create a plethora of bizarre weapons and tanks. Many of these are battlefield support weapons which move forward with the boyz to lend some heavy firepower to the fight. They take all manner of shape and design, from the crude but effective Squig Katapult to the strange and ungainly Traktor Kannons, Smasha Guns, Splatta Kannons, Pulsa Rokkits and Shokk Attack Guns. All are used to pound the enemy into submission from afar, before the weight of the Ork Boyz close in to crush the enemy in a final brutal assault. Unfortunately, very few Ork Boys are capable of holding themselves back from a good scrap in order to man the supporting artillery, and because of this Big Guns are usually crewed by Grots, who are kept in line by a Slaver or the Ork meknaiak that built the gunz being used.
Since the differences between these are pretty extreme (one being a macro-weapon, the other being pretty much just another big shooty thing), I'd like to know where they fall.
Also, do the Orks have any indirect fire weapons?
Thanks,
