      orks are awesome, and lucky for you theres channels that arent talentless soulless AI dribble. theres channels that humans with passions and personalities have made that are infinitely more entertaining then these. if you think you like orks after watching something like this, just you wait till you watch videos about them that are actually entertaining

      This model really struggles with saying Waaaagh, it's not like with the old Attenborough one which could do it fairly well. I unfortunately had to change a bunch of lines to remove the "waaagh", since it just repeatedly failed to get it right, but I'm glad one or two slipped through, even if they sound goofy as hell!

    The ‘WAAAGH! Energy vs. Mekboy Ingenuity’ argument has a simple answer that fits the very cultural ethos and genetic imperative of the Orks: like unto the very existence of the twin gods themselves, it’s both. WAAAGH! energy can’t just make a random ramshackle pipe bent vaguely into the shape of a gun fire rounds, but neither can a shoota be manufactured or made to work by a pack of a dozen isolated feral Orks. Mekboys (and other specialist Ork types) bridge the gap between the Orks’ psychic influence and their genetic memory of how to build engines of war to work their wonders. The mekboys build their ‘technology’ in a pattern that allows the Orks’ latent collective Warp presence to animate said junk into functional assets. To hell with xenomorphs, Orks really are the perfect warrior life form out of all of fiction. Deadly, self-sufficient, spread like the plague, and literally grow stronger both individually and as a gestalt psychic consciousness the more conflict they engage in.

      Agreed, If it was the psy force of the WAAAAGH alone a few Human blanks like the Sisters of Silence would be able stop an Ork armored advance with their presence alone. I think the WAAAAGH needs something physical that "Almost works" to stick to or a Weirdboy to channel it directly.

    • @Scholarslore
      @Scholarslore  7 місяців тому +4

      I do find the two arguments interesting, but as you say, I think the most reasonable explanation would be a mix of the two ideas. For me personally, I put them both out there because if someone is a fan of the Orks, then they can choose which part of the lore best fits their own interpretation of the faction, and in some ways it's better for small parts of the setting to be "loose" like this. So long as people can enjoy themselves with their thoughts on their own faction, then all's good

    Speaking of Meks this reminds me of Orks during 8th edition, there was a very funny oversight on GW part.
    They let you squadron up your buggies, since having a mad max vehicle army looks really cool. Thing was GW did not expect anyone insane enough to own 9 copies of the same model, since the cap in 8th was you can have 3 copies of any 1 type. So what happened was Ork players brought 9 buggies and a Dakka Jet, that lets every buggies +1 to hit in shooting phase. ON TOP OF THE FACT you can make it's main weapon fire out of line-of-sight, AND you can have it hit on 4 instead of 5 (cuz technically a Grot was firing the gun). So even if your opponent was behind dense cover, you're always gonna get that +4 to hit and there was no way to get you back to +5 since you stacked 2 +1 like that.
    In layman's term, Orks were balanced around having high damage but low accuracy, but when you stack buggies like this, you essentially can hit anything on the board with relative ease, your buggies have high mobility, and they ignores your cover. It truly was a glorious Speed Waaaagh moment.

    seriously though greenskins are a universal favorite in all warhammer settings. They have been from a very young age. Their antics make me feel like a kid again. I bet I'll love piecing my first buggy or rig together and painting it with the same manic joy of a mek. Thank you for this video from a big Green fan.

      Thank you! The writing is definitely the most enjoyable aspect of doing this, but it's helped by the fact that the actual voice model is so smooth. I worked really hard on making it as natural, and realistic sounding as possible, since as you say, a robotic, or mechanical voice only detracts from the quality of the writing, and cheapens the entire project.
