7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe. |

Does anyone know what 'AF' stands for in the context of Infinity (the game)?
It seems like it gets used a fair amount for Infinity related discussion, but I have no idea what it stands for.

Don't meant to be a jerk, but hurricanes aren't really a big important thing to this site, so terms for them aren't a priority for the glossary, I suspect.
