That regarding the new orcs & goblins releases, there are no nipples on all the new orcs?
Does this mean they are finally phasing out orcs with nipples?

Is this a shift towards fluff consistency (i.e. spore based reproduction) or something else?

Discuss...

A thread about Ork nipples.


In answer to your hypothesis...No, they obviously didn't think about it as much as you have, methinks

So if the Clawed Fiends took all the Ork nipples, then the Sanguinary Guard took all the Daemonette nipples?

That explains an awful lot. But of what I am not sure.

Why would modern orcs/orks have nipples?

They are not a species of mammals feeding offspring and they have no females. They also shouldn't have bellybuttons as they have no umbilical cord.

Because all humans start off female, and either stay female or become mail during development.

It's redundant in human males, but still part of our DNA, unlike Orks..

Can't spell for hell when i'm at work. We have daft keyboards that aren't set up the same as a standard one and an autocorrector program.

Meant to type Male, but the computer tends to autocorrect words without warning. I have to go back and correct my posts a lot as a result...

I don't know whether this is an improvement or not. I just know I have now spent too long thinking about Ork anatomy.

Thanks for the Cheerleader picture haha.. while we are here, why not lower the bar even further and post the ogre cheerleader if anyone has it ?

Because the orcs growing from mushrooms thing was invented by Gav Thorpe IIRC, it wasn't always that way. Orks/Orcs started their conception as essentially really scummy humans with foul manners, green skin, and spoke like a london docker (amusingly, that is the one piece of background that still survives) and have steadily moved away from that and towards a more bestial nature. Now they exist only to inflict pain and destruction, and as a result are rather 2 dimensional in nature, the shedding of nipples is another part in that process I guess.
