Answer
They're just as old as the the Space Marines because 40k stated with Space Marines vs Orks.
If you are talking about Orks off of Lord of the Rings, no they are not. They were created from dead remains of Elves and trained to kill and do evil.
Eldar would win if they were at range (execpt howling banchess) but if the orks got in at close range they would win
No they are the same size unless you take into account the extra modifications the 40k Orks have.
Orks, also called Greenskins are a race of humanoid green skinned savage creatures that can be found in the Warhammer 40k computer game. The Orks are made up of different types of races.
Yes they have Weirdboyz.
Your answer is going to be different from person to person..... Orks are better at combat, Tau are better at shooting. Depending on what you are looking for, both armies are amazing.
The orcs were created my Morgoth in his fortress at Angbad. They were created from Elves, tortured to the point where their personalities completely changed. They were created in the first age.
If you are serious about Warhammer 40K you can only play Orks.
No not at all! Unless they choke... Orks

Orks are half in control of Armageddon. What you have to realize is that Orks upon death release spores that is effectively fungi. These will turn into Orks later on. Lesson 101 on Ork reproduction everyone. So any Ork waagh! that invades a world will leave its' descendants in its' wake. There are countless reports of Hive cities having to 'cull' lower sections of their cities because of the fact that Orks still lurk in the depths bellow. Nothing short of full Exteminatus (incendiary devices deployed from orbit to burn the entire planet) can stop the Ork spores from coming back. Thus the Orks technically 'win' in some sense because if you had to burn AN ENTIRE PLANET just to kill the enemy and make the planet inhospitable to life for hundreds of years then your the one loosing out on resources. Not the Orks who just use their crazy technology that shouldn't work to build new things out of wood, metal, rock, scrap, paper etc...
Well i play guard but ill try not be to one sided, Bassically guard are very shootie. They have lots of big guns to sit back and just kill stuff. and lots of weak troops to try and keep anything from killing those guns. Orks are much differect, though they do have guns they suck at using them and usually just load 20 or so boys into a truk and go kill stuff in cc. So really its how you play it, a good gamer can kill guard with orks and orks with guard.
