![]() The most striking feature about the Orks is their green skin. If this is true, then it is likely that the Orks represent the ultimate fighters strong, tough, durable and aggressive with the biology to back them up. This indicates that the Orks may have been created, or grown, as a result of highly advanced biological engineering. The most interesting feature however, is the lack of any sign for any evolution or evolutionary process. The Ork's animal side however suggests a primitive pack-based omnivorous growth pattern the Orks relying on each other to hunt for food etc. The fungus therefore allows the Ork to reduce the number of potentially fatal injuries possible, further improving their survivability. It appears that the fungus allows the Ork's body to negate the use of complex internal organs, the immune system and the reproductive anatomy. An example of this is found when comparing an Ork to a human. The Orks animal side lives in complete harmony with its fungal side and each compliment the other and come together to form a tough and resilient creature. Ork armies are immensely varied, from hordes of brutal infantry and columns of ramshackle yet deadly vehicles, to ‘skwadrons’ of high-velocity attack craft, batteries of madcap artillery and mobs of clanking combat-walkers.Orks are a symbiosis of both animal and fungus at the most basic level. Yet when massed in sufficient numbers and led by a suitably mighty Warlord, Ork warbands sweep across the stars in frenzied crusades known as Waaaghs!, which can crush entire systems and turn whole regions of the galaxy green. They thrive on violence, and rarely think beyond their next punch-up, breakneck race or deafening gunfight. Far removed from the enigmatic and scheming nature of many other races, greenskins are simple beings who live for battle. The Orks are the most savage and warlike species in the galaxy, and – also being one of the most numerous – can be found infesting its every corner. That fact notwithstanding, you will find that this squig-gnawed tome contains all the information you need to learn about the anarchic Ork race and gather your miniatures into a fearsome warband. Welcome, Warboss, to Codex: Orks! Every greenskin worth his teef knows that books are best used for bashing people over the head.
