Orks are stronger than any human, with rippling muscles, maws full of yellowing fangs, and a natural toughness that allows them to shrug off all but the worst injuries. They are a terrifying foe to face, especially in large numbers. Bellowing mobs of Boyz surge forward, enthusiastically spraying bursts of gunfire, while ramshackle buggies, hurtling beast riders, and trundling walkers rush to get to grips with their foes. They are the most joyously anarchic and recklessly destructive force in the galaxy.
