Woo! got my orc team painted up:

But now I need a name for them! I'm not very familiar with the Warhammer Fantasy world but what I read online is that the orcs are basically spread out in tribes all over, so they don't really have a city to use as a main name. Is that right?

So far I have a kind of punny nickname, 'Da Thick Red Line', which I really like, but what about a proper team name?

I personally favour the team names that play on actual NFL teams like Orcland Raiders or New Orc Jets/Giants or something but I can't think of any others off the top of my head. I think they work well because they fit that whole schlock of a Fantasy football game apeing the real life American football theme that BB has going for it.

My orks are named Da Stompas because "dey stomp da uder gitz". As for sounding like real teams, my undead are called the Gravebane Hackers.

New Orkand Hatriots...
