No they didn't, While twin linked ACs sound like a lot of firepower, they
really aren't, they are in that awkward category between anti personnel
and anti tank. Orks can't hit a thing, even when stationary, and the
autocannon cannot kill anything larger than a marine or scout vehicle,
whereas a multimelta can slag a couple of vehicles in one hit, and is
deadly accurate. The only difference should be range...
Yet another useless incoherent grunt from me, thinking that bikes with
45cm range is a nice thing indeed...

You may think you can fly, but you better not try it...
