In a battle between Orcs and Orcs who would win?  I'm not even sure if this is a valid question to ask because to me there is no contest.  One of these species is clearly far superior to the other but I want to hear what you think. 



Edit:  Changed comparison from WH40K Orks to Warhammer Fantasy Orcs.

Would a Warhammer fantasy Orc be a better match?

LotR Orcs, of course.  Morgoth perverted Elves he captured into Orcs.  So, at their base, Orcs are Elves.  And EVERYONE knows that Tolkien Elves beat ALL!

Yeah I think you're probably right.  Let's compare WH Fantasy Orks to LotR Orcs.   O0

Ah I see.  So what you're saying is that as long as the LotR Orcs have Orc converted Elves at their side they can then beat Warhammer Orcs?

WH Orcs can get so huge and over-the-top, I don't see how they could lose.

Nope.  I'm saying that Tolkien Orcs ARE Tolkien Elves, just perverted.

Interesting.  That image got past my spybot resident program.  I changed it though so that hopefully I'm not endangering anyone else.
