Gold is just a flashier yellow. White was already established as death.


Jesterpest

White is also “Ded Killy” as in lethal


Cersox

They must love white phosphorus rounds


bomposgod

White phosphorus is that deadly cause Orks wanted it like that


SocietyFrosty8525

This is why many clans have declared Rainbows illegal


StormBlessed678

No one Ork should have all that power. One Kolor to rule them all...

Stupid bot. Just copy pastes other peoples comments.


Verttle

Pretty sure in lore Gold is for more valuable, hence the bad moons sigil and their power to regen teeth faster


Cersox

Yeah, but yellow has a bit of bleed-over since it's "flashy" which can mean both bigger explosions or fancier gubbins


Cmdr_McMurdoc

You can also make bigger explosions *with* fancier gubbins


Memelord1117

So, if the Tau, or White scars attacked, who would be on the receiving end of ork colour effects? the orks, or the 2 former?


Cersox

"Youz is ded, youz jus don't know it yet"


SgtDoughnut

The orks, the white = killy is why they paint checkerboard patterns on their stuff. to get tuff and killy.


MarsMissionMan

Neither. Not all Tau are white, and the Ork gestalt consciousness doesn't have an effect on other species. People once thought it did because of Yarrick not dying, but look how that turned out.


Cersox

Yarrick lives, he'd be fighting Gork and Mork if he were dead and the orks don't hear any fighting.

You ever seen a purple ork?

didn't fucking think so


Nitropotamus

Have you ever seen a purple ork?


PeedOnMyRugMan

Didn't fink so


MartoPolo

apparently, and correct me if im wrong, purple isnt officially the stealfy colour, I think it was grey or black, it just stuck in the community cause weve never seen a purple ork


kainedbutable1987

Does that mean you could just field a ton of bases in a game and claim they are purple orks lol.


MartoPolo

yea like the guy that sold an empty base and claimed it was a stealth suit


MarsMissionMan

How do we know purple is invisible when we've never seen purple?

#AZ I SED EARLIER, PINK IZ DA EATIEST KUZ O' DA GREAT EATA' KIRBY!


Creepy_Start_8021

My headcanon is that Kirby is just a squig that happened to get sucked through an interdimensional warp rift, got a lil' mutated along the way, but that just made it hungrier.


LethalGopher

A squig that matured and evolved in the Nintendo universes environment? No notes! I have no choice but to join this head cannon.


Gaargod

Warp Squig Lord.


MartoPolo

pink horrors of Mork


Sax-Offender

>head cannon Gunther Hermann approved


theflockofnoobs

I cannot support this headcanon, simply because Kirby is far to powerful to be a being of Warhammer.


VladimirBarakriss

Ok but to my knowledge there's nothing stopping kirby from consuming an entire planet


Redactedtimes

If Kirby had ever existed in any capacity in warhammer, the chaos gods would be long dead.


thekennanator

Well that would suck.


Legendary_Demigod

youz mean that Kirby would suck? Aye.


StormBlessed678

Or they'd be forced at gunpoint to be nice. Like the Twilight Zone episode about the psychic kid who terrorized a small town.


BreadDziedzic

Exactly why he got forced into the portal that sent him to Nintendo.

Twuggy

I just wasted 3 hours of life on that sub. Lost several thousand brain cells. But it was a blast. Such a fun sub.


Anonimous_dude

Rainbow is pure power, and it often results in boys dying from brain damage or liver failure. This is why many clans have declared Rainbows illegal: it’s not a coincidence we don’t see rainbows in 40k, because Orks believe them to be not real, in an effort to save themselves


Yung_zu

Somewhere there’s a Mechanicus Adept going through hell trying to get to an STC that just makes prisms


I_am_yeeticus

So...is the LGBTQ+ community a hard counter against Orks?


Anonimous_dude

I’m going to answer to your question with a question: Have you ever seen Sisters of battle losing to Orks? Only the toughest Orks can beat them, all the others just die instantly


Janosfaces

in 40k kROCK dosnt beat scissor.


Famous_Author_2264

r/angryupvote


OnlyRoke

The real End Times scenario is when the LGBTQIA+ community finally allows the Orks in, as they are all asexual agender anarchists. Then all that rainbow power goes into the Orks and the 40k universe is screwed.


Lord_Gibby

Anarchy? Da Boss isn’t gonna like to hear bout dis.

Depressedloser2846

orks are right wingers?


sabipinek

Golden is wealth because humies decorate everything with it White is already established as death Black is power/strength Lime is weakness because goblins are lime Gray is good scrap( necrons are gray and many human factions wear gray)


ServantOfTheSlaad

A few Tyranids are also grey, so they make a good skrap as well


Cmdr_McMurdoc

But Lime is just Green, which is the best


sabipinek

The boyz are green to dark green in terms of skin color . Goblins ans snotlings are lime and they are pathetic and weak


Galifrey224

Gold is Wealth, because old teeth are often gold/yellow. White is death, because bones Orange would be fire based weapons, it would make fire burn hotter Pink would make you heal faster Brown would be fear, because when humans are very scared they shit themselves


Fredleys

I had an idea for orks who breed bioluminescent squigs. Want glowy to enhance weird boys and that


LordBakon7926

I love this actually. Using the squigs as like psychic batteries


shroomyshy

White makes things more killy, and pink makes orks look snazzy


dicker_machs

Question: When fighting orks, does their color "effect" have an effect on the ones fighting them?


Emperor_Titan_Nokia

I think they do, some believe the ultramarines plot armor is because the orks think blue is lucky


Thiege23

In the red gobo book he geuses no non green skins are too stupid


AzSharpe

I like the theory that the only reason the Emperor is alive is because enough Orks believe it to be so.


TriumphOfTheHordes

Purple is sneakiest


Dark_Lordy

Ultraviolet is like purple, but you can't even see the colour


Testabronce

Black and white iz killy, purple iz fer stelff boys, and green iz best


Fu3aR

Inevitable-Weather51

Golden is for Drip


Status-Tune-6639

White gives them a better credit score, increased chance to make it through the hiring process, and less likely to be pulled over. … waaaait a minute….

Negative_Chemical697

Yellow is wealth


Forsaken_Yak6079

White is already something, makes you more krumpy


Voktikriid

Orange is red and yellow, so it's faster explosives.


u-moeder

Most of the kolorz aren't really Canon, which I think its a cool think. I always find it lame when settings do a cool thing and then milk it out. So red is deffi fast, blue is prolly lucky, but I haven't seen actual source material about that , same as yellow. Purple is a very fun joke that I choose to believe. The rest I believe isn't canon EDIT : green is the orkiest kolor so it's the best and the most powerfull


Ahnma_Dehv

RTMSner

Purple is sneaky.


This_Is_A_Username-7

As the Emperor's Children know, pink makes you fight in melee better. Also, purple doesn't make you invisible, it makes you fabulous.


Garrett-Wilhelm

Red: is for fast things or to make things go faster Yellow: is the color of the wealthy and more explosive things, so rich orks paint themselves yellow to show they got many teeths and paint their explosives yellow for more boom Black: this colour means something is hard or tough, that's why the armor of the Warbosses are often black, cause it means is very durable. Blue: is a lucky colour and it means good luck. Purple: is a sneaky colour cause you never seen a purple ork, that means they're invisible. White: is a deadly colour, or it means "death" that's why orks use checkboards with black and white colours to simbolize they are both tough and deadly. Green: is the best colour, only the best are green and that is why orks are green, cause green is best.


ManagementParking398

In human history, at some point these ware the only colors we had. Orange and pink ware just red to our ancestors. Studies show that we are actually incapable of seeing colors we don't know about. So maybe it's the same for orks. Knowing about more complex colors like alizarin crimson is very un orky


Iwantmahandback

Pink results in femboy Orks

Green makes your cock longer, but since orks dont have cocks It doens't affect them


Emperor_Titan_Nokia

Am gonna paint myself as green rq


oohjay23

Green makes cocks longer, orks are green but have no cocks. Ergo, orks themselves are huge cocks.


Jobnar

Well, when they die, they spread spores, so it's quite fitting.


TotallyMessed

Pink let's you go even faster because it's a lighter red

Purple is canonically used for stealth because “have you ever seen a purple Ork?”

actually that was made up by the community. But might as well just be seen as canon now because it has been adopted by everyone everywhere.
