That post is an example of how orks speak ('the red ones go faster' is a particular tagline of theirs and a reference to the orks' interesting 'psychic gestalt' collective unconscious psychic abilities - they believe that vehicles go faster if painted red, and since they believe it, it's actually true - at least for them).

I personally play Tau, but if I were to pick up a second army it'd definitely be orks. They're just hilarious.

It will be a very silent chainsaw though as we tend towards a policy of no sound on costume pieces based upon established player teeth gnashing behavior models.
Clientside only? Can you do it?

You know you want to as well.
Or don't shrink (from db size) and simply put the chainsaw over the hand...like a replacement.

Very nice stuff Dink!

I also want Chainsaw claws as I already mentioned. I agree some other peoples suggestions, remove the handle and stick the whole thing on the wrist like the flat blades. I would be happy with that.

Eh, the chainsaw isn't as impressive as I thought it would be. I thought it would be something like the width of the swords we have now. aka..huge. That chainsaw looks kinda...dinky.

Having used a variety of chainsaws in the past I have to say that chainsaw is huge compared to any wielded by human beings. Although pavement saws look similar to chainsaws and are the size you're imagining...

If possible I would love regular (noisy) and 'stealth' versions of the chainsaw.

There needs to be a new Walk power that gives you teleport so long as you're not targeted.

Yeah, its long, but I'm talking about width, girth, etc.


Still looks awesome though.

the blade on the chainsaw in the screenshot looks almost as tall as the character...

That is the problem, its not taller than the player; and that is the TW model. The BS one needs to be at least as tall and chances are its not going to be.

They don't want chainsaws, they want chainswords.

Which I would like too, but changing an actual chainsaw into one doesn't make much sense.

A chainsword later on would be really really cool, but this is a chainsaw. And it is cool.

Seeing that big blade, I'm wondering if Dink can do up a variant that puts a stenciled "CHUNQSVARNA" logo on the big open space inside the rotating chains, as a parody nod to "Husqvarna" chainsaws (the LART of choice for BOFHes everywhere!) in the traditional fashion of Japanese Anime deliberately misspelling the names and logos of well known products for parody purposes (ask Black Pebble about this).
That would be "CHUNKSQVARNA" ("qvarna" is an archaic spelling of "kvarn" meaning "mill")

Och rosor i ett sprucket krus

Could be impractical. Unless you left the chainsaw off until just before you strike.
