View Full Version : Orks...

For any of you who have ever played Warhammer 40,000 or the Dawn of War series, I think it's hilarious how the Orks are so blantantly meant to be niggers. They are crude, violent, love bling (like gold teef), and have poor marksmanship (starting at 3rd edition rules at least). Hell, I remember a Warhammer magazine which tried to reenact the movie "Zulu" using Praetorian Imperial Guard (themed after the British soldiers from Zulu) versus Orks.
Also, if anyone ever played the game Necromunda, I thought it was funny that some of the Redemptionists looked like Klansmen.

The Orcs definitely represent niggers. Same thing goes for Lord Of The Rings.

Spot on Philhelm,
As you said, they're violent, crude smelly, and poor marksmen. Plus they have shoddy construction techniques, they are barely literate, ugly and only function in large groups.

Hell, they even replace the word "that" with "dat" and all of that. Although, being from a British company, I'd imagine that they have a more Cockney accent, while being niggers in spirit. However, it must be said that I feel bad even comparing a fictional species to niggers. At least Orks have courage.
As far as LOTR Orcs, I don't really see them as being niggers. In "The Hobbit" Tolkien explained that while goblins (Tolkien seemed to interchange orc and goblin at times) never made beautiful things, they were very clever when making destructive things, such as bombs. Also, in the movies Suruman's orcs had a more industrial theme. These traits aren't very nigger-like to me. I don't even view Warhammer Fantasy Orcs as being niggers, but merely archetypical European barbarians.

I respectfully disagree; Orcs were actually very organized and conquered a lot of middle earth. Niggers on the other hand could never start a great empire or invade anything. Although, I will agree that Orcs were ruthless, which, of course is very comparable to niggers. Nevertheless, niggers are nowhere near what Orcs are in the games or the book. The only thing that is comparable to niggers is feces. Just my two cents.

Orcs were organised and successful when led by Morgoth, Sauron or Saruman. Since when did the orcs ever act independantly? Remind you of anything?
