The Tau have fought the Orks before. It went pretty surprising, actually. It wasn’t during a WAGH, but due to the Tau’s long distance fighting style, with downright refusal for melee combat the nearby Orks “weren’t having any fun” so they stopped. They stopped fighting the Tau and left them alone. If an Ork WAGH was determined enough to wipe out the Tau, they more then likely could, but that’s a bit of mental sophistication that is a bit above them to completely wipe them out with intention to see it through.

But this gun will work. That said, it won’t work well and will break down fast… unless it gets back in the hand of an ork. Then it works great again. Yarrick could probably also use ork tek to full potential, as long as at least one ork who knows who he is sees him doing it.

Orks have about two different ways of consumption. Eating and drinking. Orks have been known to eat humans or whatever sort of meat they want. What’s most fascinating is they’ll cultivate their own fungus and turn into a alcoholic like drink and can drunk off said drink. But really, when it comes to Orks you shouldn’t overthink it. If enough of them truly believed they didn’t need food they wouldn’t grow hungry. The best example is two different ships of Orks in space with their own teams fixing the ship. One team is wearing space suits and the other isn’t. When the team with suits told the other team they needed space suits as well, just the acknowledgement of what the first team said killed every single Ork not wearing a suit. Their biology is whatever the Old Ones made them to be and what they believe.

In response to your question about ork nutrition at 7:42, Orks and their spores create fully orkish ecosystems, from the fungus itself to a variety of squigs to gretchin and grots they fill almost every niche. This effectively displace local biospheres and creates a system that, from the ground up, is working to feed the orks and provide them with everything they need. The fungus are the means by which nutrients are added to the otherwise closed system. But also, yes - they can eat pretty much anything that fits in their mouth.

12:15 - The Shokk Attack Gun is basically a Portal gun attached to a reservoir of Snotlings. Imagine you're in a tank and suddenly out of nowhere an unstoppable flood of Snotlings appears in your tank. Not only that, the Snotlings have been made ill by their transport and in their panic they're fighting, puking, and crapping all over. The bottom of the tank gets filled with this unholy slurry while you and your mates are trying to stem the tide or get out but everything is incredibly slippery and all available space is filled with the unimaginably horrifying filth. Your life ends as you either gets killed outright by the Snotlings or die to wet or dry asphyxiation, crushed and drowned in Snotling offal and humors. All the hatches eventually pop and the tank is transformed into a reeking rancid tomb. This is all assuming of course that the Mek Boy firing the gun doesn't have it misfire, either partially collapsing the Warp tunnel and turning the Snots into a fine chunky salsa sprayed all over, the thing self-destructs and creates a Warp hole, or a Daemon of the Warp comes through... The Shokk Attack Gun - A perfect example of Orky Brutal Kunnin'

3:01 The way I've always read it, the orkoid subspecies are animal-like organisms grown by fungal colonies. The fungus can survive on it's own, and is constantly released by the animal-like creatures it assembles. So, technically speaking, the fungi would be the real orks, and the things that act like animals are basically vehicles that the fungus builds, refuels, and repairs. Also the fungus is photosynthetic when it is in an orkoid (that's why they're green), but not when it is free in the wider environment, which is when it grows orkoids.

Regarding the orky food chain: The fungus that sprouts up around greenskins is a mixture of saprophytic and chemosynthetic varieties. They reclaim nutrients from any kind of decaying organic matter as well as, if the right chemicals are present, creating them from non-organic sources. The fungus is then mostly eaten by squigs which in turn form the primary food source of the emerging greenskin tribe. This allows orks to survive and grow in places like space hulks where organic matter is pretty rare but various highly reactive chemicals might be abundant.

The mitochondria is a pretty good analogy, because of the endosymbiosis theory which pretty much says that mitochondria were once cells that were eaten by another cell that for some reason didn't digest it. Since the eaten cell could use oxygen for efficient energy production it was beneficial to the host cell and the host cell provided food and safety. With time the eaten cell lost most of its genes bearing those it needed for the production of ATP (transport form of energy in the cell) and became what is now known as the mitochondria. It is a pretty bad description but I am sure there are better ones online. It is a really interesting topic to read about.

With regards to ork metabolic processes. Some sources state that orks can photosynthesise themselves. The spores also produce a colossal amount of fungus and lesser green skins that make for good food. And of course, good old squigs. Orks really aren’t picky. They happily eat the corpses of just about anything

Well as far as energy goes, there's a variety of squig for almost every calorie source you could imagine. The squigs eat everything kinda like more chill Tyranids (or space pigs).

The orks also alter the terrain of a planet they inhabit and that terrain will automatically start to grow nutrients that the grots harvest for the orks. That and orks will eat whatever is edible as they pillage is how they fuel their bodies.

Regarding Orks energy intake, the old Deff Skwadron comic had a diagram page that showed the (hilariously nonsensical) cockpit of a dakkajet; one of the key things I took from it was the fuel line that runs through the cockpit incase the pilot gets thirsty. A quick Google search shows that a gallon of jet fuel has 33,963,886.5 calories, so I don't think they would run into a problem there!

First question answered, Orks eat fungi of all kinds as well as meat. A particularly favoured ingredient in their diet are Squigs, short for 'squiggly beasts' - a variety of symbiotic races about the size of a cat, but legless. Often the only ones consumed are those known as the 'Eaten Squigs', a limbless blob which feeds on fungus.

Best example of Ork quantity having its own quality is the start of the short story "15 hours" where an Imperial Landing craft is descending towards an world where they're fighting orks, and the co-pilot announces there's unguided rockets being fired at them as anti-aircraft measures. The pilot dismisses them as easily avoidable... until he realizes there's so many his aircraft can't physically fit between them.

Something that stands out, the size argument you mentioned isnt valid with orcs. They can and do defy physics on a daily basis without even thinking about it. They conjure things from nothing and make machines which explode or fail if anyone who isnt an orc fires it. They have made double rocket launchers by hammering a metal rod through both barrels to hold it together and it still fires. Bothing about them makes any sense and I find that hillarious. If they believe something is true, it is true. Simple as that. The more there are, the more ridiculous those leaps of logic become.
