They are so screwed it's funny. Having just put down an Ork WAAAGH! myself on DoW, i'd gladly do it again.

Oh believe me, it is. It's one of the most addicting games i've played, and i've played a good few games. Don't be put off by the graphics (it's a good sandbox game, these things are rare to find as they are), it's still in an Alpha stage and receve regular updates; a top gaming magazine in Finland (think it's called Pelit) gave it 93 out of 100, with the highest rating the magazine has ever given a game being 98. Bearing in mind that what it costs now is less than half of what it'll cost when complete, and that it scored so high in it's Alpha stages, I think it's well worth the pennies you're paying for it now.

I'll try and stop derailing the thread now ^_^

What level are you?

Alternatively you could just go into wizard mode and give yourself a +500 ring of protection, and then nothing could hurt you.

The best I've gotten is Minetown, because I like to Altar farm too much and always end up someone some sort of Crazy Cthulhu Daemon Lord, who I get the brillant idea of hitting to see what happens every time without fail.

I'm playing every Race/Class/Alignment/Gender combo.

Also, still playing Nethack, but got Magicbane on my Wizard, so I write Elbereth on the ground and I guess starve to death( Assuming the Orkz respect Elbereth)

Command and conquer 3. I wonder what Tiberium would do to orks... The thought is just scary. I bet the scrin could definitely win, And possibly GDA and Nod if they teamed up. (Which I bet they would in those circumstances, seeing as they breifly allied against the scrin) All infantry in that game (with the exception of zone troopers) is total crap, so evryone would be in mammoth tanks and avatars. I love spamming mammoths.

BTW, why does nobody play this game online anymore? It's a frikking awesome RTS, even if the scrin are a bit overpowered.

Was playing League of legends, dunno how it would turn out.

On a side note: They are introducing a troll as the new champion of the week, trolls get along with orcs dont they? Maybe they could work something out.

Was also playing League of Legends. I'd say pretty screwed.

Although I'm playing Minecraft now so that's more of a maybe thing. Big pits + torches are surprisingly decent defences. As for my newer world, the fort is currently sitting on a frozen lake and made out of sand and dirt so that is extremely screwed.

Well given that I was playing World of Tanks, I think it would be utterly hilarious popping trukks and buggies with my Marder 2. Before that it was Global Agenda, and I think Orks would probably screw that up rather nicely. Sure, the Agents are elite, but the world's utterly ravaged by war and completely factionalized. Orks would fit right in. And then finally Black Ops... I think the various force in Black Ops would be screwed.

Nowhere near as much as what it does to humans. Orks are seriously that tough, quite literally "too 'ard to die".

Everywhere I'm not supposed to be.

Playin the new Assassin's Creed when this thread came to mind. If Ezio kills the Warboss...

Someone finish that thought, please. I have no idea what the Orkz would do.

If you need me, I'll be busy wiping the layers of dust off my dice.

If there's no obvious second in command, they'd fight for a day or so then get a new warboss and continue. If there was already an ork big enough to dominate everyone, they'd just easily transfer command to that Ork.

Space Empires V was the last game I played. How screwed they'd be would really depend on the stage of the game they arrive in. At low tech levels, you'd be totally screwed as you've still got nothing but small slow ships with conventional projectile weapons.

At mid tech levels, it'd be a fairly tough fight. While you'd have superior weaponry, you'd still lack the level of responses needed to totally annihilate them before they multiply and spread. It'd be a slow, uphill battle to contain the threat and keep from being overrun.

At high tech levels, the Orks hardly constitute a threat. Since at they'd be very easy to contain, and you could simply reduce any planets they get on to a molten pile of rubble. If you're slow to react and they wind up taking control of a system or two, it's just a matter of detonating a couple a stars and wiping them out with the novas.

Recettear. Teef would replace Pix as the in-game currency as even Orks appreciate a smiling girl selling weapons at bargain prices.
