I think Ork equipment and weapons clearly show the difference between stupid and simple. The Orks are a simple race, drawing a straight line from A-B while the rest of the galaxy are wrestling with physics and biological limits etc... the Orks just ignore it. But that's one of the biggest errors enemies have when fighting them. They see that simplicity as stupidity and become complacent. Not the best idea when you have OddBoyz sat at the back tinkering with yet another new toy. Thanks for yet another fun, interesting and informative video Wes. Your enthusiasm and passion is contagious and you really have made your niche in the panoply of W40k Loremasters. Bravo 👏👏👏

When you actually sit down and think about it, the Ork race are the Old One's _Magnum Opus:_ They're a race of near perfect bioweapons that works like a moving, self-sustaining ecosystem. Orks are born fully grown and battle-ready, which ensures reliable reinforcements without effort; Squigs provide everything from food to fuel to comodity items which massively simplifies logistics; Their DNA-coded knowledge means they have access to advanced technology no matter what and their latent psychic field makes them capable of salvaging any sort of enemy gear, no matter how primitive or advanced, and build veritable wonders out of literal scrap; And to top it all off, since they were designed from the ground up as living weapons, they're genetically coded to actually enjoy fighting with unrivaled passion and enthusiasm, so they're spared the trauma and PTSD that other races' warriors tend to suffer. And the best part? Modern Orks are a *degenerate and devolved* version of the Old One's creation. No wonder the Necrontyr decided to take a 65 million-year nap rather than keep fighting them.

[@joshuakim5240]

And to show just how absurdly overpowered the ancient Krorks were, a single demi-Krork (not even a full Krork), almost topped the Imperium and needed the sacrifice of a primarch to be beaten. The War in Heaven comprising of hundreds of millions of Krorks and that force not winning instantly really puts into perspective how degenerated all the current factions are compared to their ancestors.

[@CteCrassus]

Some Ork/Squig history (I forget which edition of Warhammer 40k) but squigs were originally a Tyranid unit that was made based on Ork DNA 🧬 Tyranids used after they ate their first Orks. Eventually later Orks ran into squigs and recognized their Orkiness within them and the Squigs instantly liked Orks (refusing to fight and eat them, basically rolling over for belly rubs) , thus Orks adopted the Squigs within the Ork family. From then on Tyranids stopped using them and stopped using Ork DNA 🧬 in making new types of units while Squigs ended up being continued to be created by Orks and Tyranids stopped making Squigs.

The Orks almost destroyed and capitulated the Imperium during the War of the Beast...the bigger and stronger they get, the smarter they get as well.

Yay for adding Bubble Chucka ... my favourite weaponry in the whole setting! In previous editions I had an army list, I never built it off Virtual Machines, consisting of as many Bubble Chucka as possible. The concept was a little bit of a meta game, for at the time each chucka had a 'variable stat line' that required a complex roll off method. One which which even allowed your opponent some say over the stat line, so you can be assured that 1 you roll is going into power or number of shots. After about two rounds of rolling three times as many dice as normally required... opponents would look at me in disgust. I didn't break the list out often, it was simply designed to laugh at the bubble chucka being so ... random! But imagine a 2000 point game, where your opponent has only a handful of models that are not chucka...

[@dragondeeznutts]

[@antipop6439]

See I used to use bubble chukka dragstas in the old epic. They worked very different then. You would put a bubble token at random on your target. It didn't do anything until the enemy unit fired. Then you flip the token and 1 in 4 chance it was a solid bubble. This ment what ever they shot it bounced back and hit itself. I loved firing it at shadow swords and daring them to fire.

Since there's no guarantee the gretchin manning the zzap gun can hold the button down reliably the power can range from chipping paint all the way to punching holes in tanks.

The Japanese also had grenades on a pole designed in case of an assault on mainland Japan during World War II.

My favorite Ork invention is the Shokkjump Dragsta. The fact that the mek who invented it got the idea when he accidentally shot himself through his own shokk attack gun makes it automatically top tier

[@CteCrassus]

My favorite part is that he applied such a brilliant epyphany... to cheat at the races.

[@ravendorman9123]

I love the 40k orks and how over the top they are, hope one day to see a deep dive video

[@ravendorman9123]

Your ork shorts are what inspired me to start looking into/ playing 40k thank you so much, I can't wait to see more of your videos

Orks When Making the Rock "ITZ not Jus' a Rok! *sniffle* it's a Space ship"

[@kliserktherockadept556]

Imagine explaining what white phosphorus and thermobaric weapons are. What would they make?

[@miceltusav88]

Heat-n-eat gun

[@andrewharper1609]

The horseshoe magnet version of the Lifta Droppa only ever appeared as the Epic version you included. Very rare big props for featuring.

[@miceltusav88]

12:23 "they rip and tear at enemy infantry" Happy doom slayer noises

[@ImmortalDragon21]

Thank you WesHammer, because if this video and learning about some of the truely bizarre weapons available to them I am now planning to start an Ork Waaagh lead by Warboss Arnork Skotch N’ Killa.

[@bluwzrdphone]

That bubble gun sounds exciting.

Waking up on Christmas morning to a few boxes of Ork Boyz, snow raining down, and Lord of the Rings playing in the background while I painted my Boyz, my brother painted his Tyranids, and my father painted his Iron Warriors while trying to convince my mom to paint some Sisters of Battle... I miss those days. Your videos help bring me back to that place and time, thank you

[@LegendStormcrow]

I'm kind of stoked for Purple War. Isn't it made by a bunch of Blizz vets who ran away? Looks like WC3 with WC2 graphics

[@weshammer]

I am too! When I first saw it the art style it kind of turned me off for like a second, and then I was like oh my God this looks and feels exactly like Warcraft 3 did way back in the early 2000s! And then I was immediately on board 😅 as far as the developers go I don't actually know that. It would make a lot of sense but I'd have to do a little bit of research to confirm or deny.

[@LegendStormcrow]

@@weshammer I'm going to have to check. Believe it or not, the early stages of SC looked like that too, but they got a lot of flak for it being "warcraft in space" Oh, and I'm sure you know, but WC started as a Warhammer game.

[@Gooboy25]

The best way to think about Orks is "it's not stupid if it works"

[@ribbitgoesthedoglastnamehe4681]

Its not stupid if it doesnt work but is funny enough to try twice.

[@giacomoromano8842]

Man, i remember the Shokk cannon in older editions, it was hilarious! If you hitted, you rolled on a list with two dices, and depending on the roll, anything could happen. The funniest ones i remember are the one where you teleported the mek in hand to hand combat with the target, and the double 6, in which a warp rift full of demons appeared, so the target and everyone near was hitted hard.

[@CteCrassus]

In 2nd edition, if the center of the blast template was wholly within an enemy vehicle the Snots would then fight in melee with the crew. The tank could do nothing else until the crew managed to clean up their vehicle, and if the Snots actually won (unlikely against Space Marines but a very realistic possiblity against Imperial Guard), the tank was automatically considered destroyed.

[@niraythedemonking5518]

The irony that an ad for a mobile game showing an Orc faction as the ad's focus on this video is amazing

[@atomicLord97]

I want to know what would happen if you described what a Molotov is and how it works to an ork and then told them to make one. What would they come up with?

[@weshammer]

Supposedly they actually use these! When I was making this video I was digging through lists of every type of weapon ever used by the orc whether it be from super old editions of the game or the various RPG systems that have come out over the years. And molotovs were definitely a thing! I almost included them but they didn't have anything about them that made them orky or weird. They were just molotovs, so I left it off

[@thehermitman822]

WAAAAAAALOTOV ORKTAIL

[@atomicLord97]

Orks basically just had normal molotovs? thats a little disappointing. I had the mental image of them mixing their own blood or something with the liquid in the molotov to make... I dont know really "Fighty angry burna bombs?" Orks could definitely make angry fire.

You failed to mention that sometimes, the user of the Shock attack canon can shoot himself AT the enemy. That is hilarious for everyone!

[@lilwyvern4]

Every time there is talk of da boyz, I dream of a game about being a warboss and building your own clan to WAAAAAGH! over the galaxy. Start out with feral orks, get basic shoota and choppa boyz, eventually get access to mekz, and all the fun shit that you hear about. A good AA ork game would be a dream. Blood Gunz & Teef is a decent start.

[@ImHELLBERG]

You're definitely my favorite channel for 40k lore now, please don't stop making these long form videos :)

[@thetwitchywitchy]

Orks usually aren’t my first pick when it comes to favorite faction across various game universes, but knowing their imagination drives reality for their creations is so freaking cool. I love the color beliefs 😂 Purple being sneaky, red being fast, black for power and so on, and all the fun weaponry, this video definitely made me like orks so much more 😂

[@Z1LT01D]

wes, thank you for love you reignited in my heart for 40k. You explain things so great and make it so fun to listen to you. Love you man

[@hernehaugen6878]

"If you're using any gun other than the gravity gun what are you even doing?" Simple. Crowbar therapy.

[@weshammer]

The only correct answer

[@collimus]

Just got into the warhammer universe, reading the horus heresy books now,I'm on the fourth. Really loving your vids! Love the enthusiasm and comedy that is so plentiful In your vids. Love the ORC BOI VIDZ, NO OOMIES ALLOWED

[@10OrcsTinKan]

The splatta cannon sounds like a weapon from bulletstorm i love it

[@frankwieser478]

The fact the orks love battle but also crack up from using one of there guns just brings me happiness lol there just happy to be there lol

[@thebro6204]

*sees orks* no more context needed. *smashes like button*

[@samyomura]

so, crazy thought: if orks get smarter the more of then are clustered together, could they get smart enough to recover their krork level of consciousnes/tecnology, shoud enough trilions of orks get together ?

[@shaderunner8220]

Always found the Shok Attack Gunz to be strangely ingenius despite the absolutely ridiculous way it works. As for my favourite weapon in the 40k universe it's a difficult choice between the T'au Railguns (Cause rail guns are AWESOME) and the Eldar Distort Cannons. Actually, I'd love it if you made a similar video on either the Eldar or the Tau. The Eldar weapons are surprisingly scary sometimes, and the Tau weapons are just really cool.

[@andrewverrett568]

Just thinking about how chaotic the battlefield would be with all these weapons being used at the same time is just awesome. Infantry being shredded to pieces by barbed wire, squigs blowing up, squig wasp swarming enemies, people teleporting in and out of reality, bubbles exploding. Epic.

[@weredig0]

05:11 Wait ... The Rocks Survive ??? I'm pretty sure that if all the Ork's are dead and all the tech is broken the Rock itself is going to survive.

[@xxblueflame-reaperxx2266]

all i can think about with the bee squigs is when they hit all you hear from people is NOT the BEES!!

[@salamanderthegr8630]

I was really into the telly blasta and the splatta cannon then you brought up the skock attack gun and the goblins spawning in thier stomach and eating them inside out solidified me new opinion that that his the most horrifying thing i've heard so far after getting into the franchise recently.
