asm, I was talking to ABF, who did mention Starcraft, not you. Now then, stop embaressing yourself.
Zerglings are super evolved organisms with super dense hides and claws. They make sense. OrKs however, they just have axes and armor from an ancient era. They don't even compare to each other. The zerg would shred the orcs just as badly, and wouldn't even bother copying their DNA since they are obviously an evolutionary dead end :D.
Now, if the space orks are actually intended to be a joke, then that's fine, you won't hear a word out of me again. Also, you point out they have high technology and that steel axe was apparently a part of it, okay, alright, but that movie didn't give that impression. And, that movie is meant to sell that game. I guess it's meant to sell it to Warhammer fans more than anyone else though. All I can say is that in answer to PA's challenge to see if I could watch that movie and not immediatly want to play that game, I guess I win.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
