Rainbow=Invisibility. You see, blue camouflages you in the ocean, white camouflages you in the snow, green camouflages you in the forest, and so on. Therefore, if you wear every color, you'll be camouflaged everywhere you go.

Yellow=Wealth. Gold is yellow. The Bad Moonz are an Ork clan with yellow armor, and they're the richest. They have the biggest and the shootiest guns. Its Warbosses are usually overweight.

Orange=Precision. You see, orange is the cross between red (speed) and yellow (wealth). What do you get when you cross a quick striketeam and a well funded one? You get hella precise assassins, you get a bank robbery, you get the SWAT team, you get a lightning fast assault with melon-fething bazookas.

Purple=Kamikaze. You see, purple is the cross between red (speed) and blue (luck). This is Evil Kinevel. This is the kamikaze pilot who lived to tell the tale. Every psychotic speed freak who took the brakes off his car, every Mekboy who fires his guns without having Grots test them, every Warboss who leads the charge against enemy artillery is purple.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5475318.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5475318.page GMT Orks and colors.

Green ain't betta! Green iz best! I'm a little surprised that orks, as fond of their skin tone as they are, don't ever seem to paint their vehicles green, but I'm guessing that's more an aesthetic choice on GW's part, as green boyz in green trukkz wouldn't look so good.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5478518.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5478518.page GMT Orks and colors.

You've just inspired me to paint my next squad of boyz purple, with the odd red and blue highlights (I'll make it work somehow). And I'm ripping off your explanation above as their instant backstory. "We'r da last boyz standing . . . every single time!!!" ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5478898.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5478898.page GMT Orks and colors.

I don't give a gak if this is right or not it's halarious. Also I'm sure that different ork bands will have varied beliefs, just as there are different views of christianity.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5502110.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518888/5502110.page GMT Re:Orks and colors.
Like Deathskulls, Deathskulls are notorious for looting, but also for their Meks, In fact I recall reading somewhere that Deathskulls would make good inventors if their fascination for things lasted longer than a few minutes, they wear blue for luck, but blue symbolizes intelligence, I know right? intelligent Orks, but it kida makes sense with their abundance in Meks

Bad moon's wear yellow as it's a symbol for Wealth but it's also associated with food, when was the last time you saw a Bad moon that didn't have a full stomach.

Red is speed, but it's also associated with energy and war, - Speed freaks, Evil suns

Black is power - Goff's - Da hardest!

I'm just rambling so ignore me,

It would be cool if games workshop gave us some more colors and reasons for using it. I've always thought that Orks might me colour blind and can only see red,yellow, green and blue.
