Yh... this monkey creates all of the grey knights weapons and machinery. So the ultimate engineers in the 41st millenium... are orangutans...

Basically they are the ones that create Digital Weapons and stuff.

It's a jokaero.

They are instinctive tech savants. They make stuff. They tinker.
You can't force them to do stuff. If you try to, they make stuff to stop you, then escape and go back to doing what they were before you came along.

They've been part of the fluff since RT.
Their digital weapons have been in EVERY edition of the game.
Yes, THEIR digital weapons. They are the ones that make them. These monk-OOK! are in the game because the new codex allows you to use Ordo Xenos Inquisitors (who just like their radical Malleus counterparts, often use weaponry and equipment from their chosen 'enemies' to defeat them - and Jokaero aren't considered sentient, so aren't a Xenos [threat] race, just another tool).

Only problem I have with Jokaero is using them in combat units.

Making things is great, fighting not.

Except when you can shoot lasers out of your fingertips.
