It's a big honking cleaver, sans gun:
I'd say the Feral Ork stats are correct.
Anyone ever notice that the Steam Gargant's weapons don't have Fire Arcs? And neither does the Orkeosaurus or Fighta-Bommers.

On the Feral Steam Gargant it doesn't have a shooting attack but on the Gargant it does. Should the name be the same or is there an error? |

Does the Feral Gargant model have a gun on the choppa arm? |

I think fightabommerz don't have fire arcs because they haven't got only one shoota, but rather multiple facing in whatever direction the mekboy felt like. |

So I'm assuming we're taking a page from the Revenant and the Steam Gargant's weapons can fire all around due to its exceptional maneuverability?

It may have been an oversight and is a bit annoying on the "one-name-one-stat" front, but it's been okay so far. I'm leaning to just playing it as written. |

Ooh, I'd be concerned people will be "chopping"  and changing back and forth across lists. Game 1 "What's it do again?" "It's just a Choppa." Game 2 "What's it do again?" "It's a choppa with a gun." "Eh? I played it versus Bob and he didn't get to shoot with it..." |

For those who need their Orklings in a row we could always call it a Steam Gargant Mega-choppa. Given the amount of abstraction that goes into Ork weaponry and stats though I don't think it's a big deal. An Imperial Lascannon is an Imperial Lascannon. An Ork Choppa is a chainaxe, a tire iron, a cleaver, an axle with a huge nut on it, etc. Having different stats here an there won't cause that much confusion, especially on the big stuff. |
