Warhammer 40K Orks vs. Warcraft Orcs - Who wins? I've always loved both universes and wondered what would happen if they went to war.

Well, all 40k related stuff is OP all round, there you can have kind of a balance since everyone has their share of bullshit. A girlfriend of mine explained it to me this way: "Lets start from scratch, one WC orc, one 40k orc, both naked, its kind of even since the only factors to consider are biological, even then 40k orc has an edge. Lets raise the bar, technology, another bar, magic/psyker powers and so on, it gets to the point when WC orcs are unable to compare factors with 40k anymore even less keep up with the list of bullshit they can bring to the table. Thats why its kind of irrelevant to make these kind of questions, every 40k faction was created to compete between them, so the designers had really no reason not to keep escalating the shit on their repertoire and give them super powerful capabilities, and it works, barely even bothers you that Space Marines can take a cannon shot to the face without flinching because Orks cant really been driven off from a planet unless you Exterminatus ("Fucking mega nuke it", her words) said planet."

Well, considering Warcraft was a Warhammer Fantasy game until Blizzard got close to release and GW got cold feet (ha what a mistake that was!) so they had to change the ip a little (the only reason GW orcs/orks are green is because of a printing glitch in an ancient copy of White Dwarf where black turned green, they used to be painted black like Tolkein Orcs), chances are that they'd be like feral Orks meeting proper space Orks. They'd fight for a bit, then join together in a WAAAGH!
It's a damned fine picture to be sure. Captures them both pretty well and is really dynamic.
