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.
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
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.

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

BLUE IZ DA LUCKIEST!
YELLOW IZ FLASH CUZ ITZ MOAR DAKKA, AN' MAKES YER GUBBINZ FLAHSY!
WHITE IZ KILLY!
RED IZ FASTA!
BLACK IS DEAD 'ARD!
PURPL IZ SNEAKY! (this one started a fan meme, and seems to have actually been picked up by GW)
# GREEN IZ DA BEST!
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
Pink iz da kolor fur fing dat u loik and don't wanna otha ork ta mess wiz it
Exampele: I PAINTED MA FAVRITE CHOPPA PINK KOZ I KRUMPED A SPEEECE MARINES WIZ IT,
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.
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
Rainboe KOLLA DOES WEIRD FIGHNS TO YOUR KAR IT MAKES DOES HUMIES WEIRD.

Snakebites wear a lot brown yeah or well at least they have brown as their collor so it would only make sence that brown makes you more resistant to poison's
Golden is Yellow but Coins will appear after the Explosion. Pink is for Umie Gitz for Unorky Gitz. White is the Brightest; good for navgating spice Hulks. And Orange is for Monday Lasagnia
I'Z LIKE TA FINK DAT WHEN YOUZ MIX DA KOLAHS YOUZ GET A MIX OF DA POWEH! ORANGE IZ YELLA AND RED? FASTEH BOOMS!
SEE, CUZ PURPLE IZ RED AND BLUE, AND YOUZ GOTZ TA BE A LUCKY, FAST, GIT TA BE SNEAKY!
Gold is just a flashier yellow. White was already established as death.
White is also “Ded Killy” as in lethal
They must love white phosphorus rounds
White phosphorus is that deadly cause Orks wanted it like that
This is why many clans have declared Rainbows illegal
No one Ork should have all that power. One Kolor to rule them all...

Stupid bot. Just copy pastes other peoples comments.
Pretty sure in lore Gold is for more valuable, hence the bad moons sigil and their power to regen teeth faster
Yeah, but yellow has a bit of bleed-over since it's "flashy" which can mean both bigger explosions or fancier gubbins
You can also make bigger explosions *with* fancier gubbins
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?
"Youz is ded, youz jus don't know it yet"
The orks, the white = killy is why they paint checkerboard patterns on their stuff. to get tuff and killy.
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.
Yarrick lives, he'd be fighting Gork and Mork if he were dead and the orks don't hear any fighting.
Purple is invisible

He said that in the post, you just missed it.

You son of a bitch
What did he comment that was already in the post? I just see an empty comment.
I love the idea of a purple gargant sneaking around a battlefield
You ever seen a purple ork?
didn't fucking think so
Have you ever seen a purple ork?
Didn't fink so
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
Does that mean you could just field a ton of bases in a game and claim they are purple orks lol.
yea like the guy that sold an empty base and claimed it was a stealth suit
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!
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.
A squig that matured and evolved in the Nintendo universes environment? No notes! I have no choice but to join this head cannon.
Warp Squig Lord.
pink horrors of Mork
>head cannon Gunther Hermann approved
I cannot support this headcanon, simply because Kirby is far to powerful to be a being of Warhammer.
Ok but to my knowledge there's nothing stopping kirby from consuming an entire planet
If Kirby had ever existed in any capacity in warhammer, the chaos gods would be long dead.
Well that would suck.
youz mean that Kirby would suck? Aye.
Or they'd be forced at gunpoint to be nice. Like the Twilight Zone episode about the psychic kid who terrorized a small town.
Exactly why he got forced into the portal that sent him to Nintendo.

I just wasted 3 hours of life on that sub. Lost several thousand brain cells. But it was a blast. Such a fun sub.
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
Somewhere there’s a Mechanicus Adept going through hell trying to get to an STC that just makes prisms
So...is the LGBTQ+ community a hard counter against Orks?
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
in 40k kROCK dosnt beat scissor.

Anarchy? Da Boss isn’t gonna like to hear bout dis.
Bi here, can confirm. This is our plan.
Another bi here. Just want to back up the argument. There is no stopping us now.
No, just rainbows
So *that's* what happened to the Rainbow Warriors!
Dayum gay people are gonna need a new flag
No flag is needed but the banner of the Imperium!
My favorite sexuality
"What's in your pants?" "The Emperor's WRATH!"
Weather Forecast just became even more (confusingly) op
So we can overdose orks with gay pride?
orks are right wingers?
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)
A few Tyranids are also grey, so they make a good skrap as well
But Lime is just Green, which is the best
The boyz are green to dark green in terms of skin color . Goblins ans snotlings are lime and they are pathetic and weak
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
I had an idea for orks who breed bioluminescent squigs. Want glowy to enhance weird boys and that
I love this actually. Using the squigs as like psychic batteries
White makes things more killy, and pink makes orks look snazzy
Question: When fighting orks, does their color "effect" have an effect on the ones fighting them?
I think they do, some believe the ultramarines plot armor is because the orks think blue is lucky
In the red gobo book he geuses no non green skins are too stupid
I like the theory that the only reason the Emperor is alive is because enough Orks believe it to be so.
Purple is sneakiest
Ultraviolet is like purple, but you can't even see the colour
Black and white iz killy, purple iz fer stelff boys, and green iz best
Blue is considered Lucky
Golden is for Drip
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….

Yellow is wealth
White is already something, makes you more krumpy
Orange is red and yellow, so it's faster explosives.
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.

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

Pink results in femboy Orks
😟
Golden means Da’ humies love ya, since dats da Color of da empera
Does that mean yellow armor orcs are … Orcdeptuz Boyztodez ***FO’ DA EMPORA!***
Green iz tha best color. Always have sum green ladz
can someone pls help me get the pic without text i am desperate
I need this too lol
Pink makes ya think gud! Pink is da color of yer thinkin' bits, it makes sense!
Green makes your cock longer, but since orks dont have cocks It doens't affect them
Am gonna paint myself as green rq
Green makes cocks longer, orks are green but have no cocks. Ergo, orks themselves are huge cocks.
Well, when they die, they spread spores, so it's quite fitting.
Pink let's you go even faster because it's a lighter red
I like to believe yellow is the color of quality
Taupe is sarcastic
Roight, well, OI fink dat orange is hot.
isn't purple stealthy? since nobody's ever seen a purple army
EVA' SEENT A PURPLE ORK!? ME NEETHA! CUZ THEIR DED SNEEKY!
Pinkz iz weak! Dat’s why da hoomiez iz all pinkish!

Pink orks are good at martial arts. You ever see a (p)ork chop
magenta is a battle
Pink makes the boiz get a little quirky ;)
Pink is for the lost clan of Femboyz, the lost clan of ork women
A Sun painted as Red causes an ork to be FUCKING INVINCIBLE!
I want to say pink is like their version of pink kryptonite and it makes them gay
Yellow is for rich orks
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.
“My source is that I made it the fuck up!”
YUZ GITS FURGOT BOUT GREEN,GREEN IS DA BEST. DATS WUT IT DUZ ITZ DA BEST
wot kinda git u godda be ta jus not use GREEN, da orkiest kolor
Snakebites wear a lot brown yeah or well at least they have brown as their collor so it would only make sence that brown makes you more resistant to poison's
White is probably a symbol of wealth because it's the same color as teeth
White is itchy
We...don't talk about what the pink orc tanks do.
Based on these answers, it's either "SCREW AERODYNAMICS, LETS BRAKE THE SOUND BARRIER!!!" Or "I'M SNAZI LOOKING"
ORANGE OS FIRE
Mauve makes them slightly more intelligible.
don't know if it counts but the orks in AOS belive that blue makes them invincible and hot rod flames make you more energetic and destructive
Dude what must they think when they put on rainbow colors. Super orks or just stupid gits?
White makes you colder!
GREEN IS DA BEST
Orange makes things burny, Purple is the sneaky color, black makes you tank’ier, white makes you strong-er-er.
[удалено]
Purple is sneaky/camuflage...right?
Green iz orkz
ORANGE IZ DA BIGGEST AN DA TASTIEST
The darker the green, the stronger they WAAAAAHHGGG
I don't know about a solid colour, but orks covered in pink-black squares tend to fall through the ground much often than the rest
Golden is Yellow but Coins will appear after the Explosion. Pink is for Umie Gitz for Unorky Gitz. White is the Brightest; good for navgating spice Hulks. And Orange is for Monday Lasagnia
da purple iz da stelthy one. have you seen a porpol Ork? no? well datz becauze they are so stelthy dat no one can see them.
[удалено]
Pink is Stealthy. Cuz I ain’t nev’a seen a ork
Pink, when an ork wants to be fabulous!
Fun fact turquoise would bring you bad luck cuz ics fake blu
Purple is da stealfiest
Pink would make an Ork have better charisma.
Green just makes the thing better in every way cause GREEN IZ’ BEST BOYZ!!!
Dont ask about brown
If the Orkz ever survived an encounter with Custodes, Gold would make them invincible gods.
Pink Uz food cuz dats what them squig boys mook loike! Orunge iz Fire, shootaz spit Orunge , Fire orunge and hot scrap looks orunge
I like to believe that pink makeshift things taste better, because squigs are pink.
What does green do on orks?
turquoise make squid taste sweeter
orange tastes good
Purple is stealthy.
Dough's don't egzizt! Quit be'in a git!
We don’t talk about the pink one
Cyan/turquoise/aquamarine makes one git look jus' like another git who isn't the first git
Orange is tasty Pink is frail And white.... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I'Z LIKE TA FINK DAT WHEN YOUZ MIX DA KOLAHS YOUZ GET A MIX OF DA POWEH! ORANGE IZ YELLA AND RED? FASTEH BOOMS! SEE, CUZ PURPLE IZ RED AND BLUE, AND YOUZ GOTZ TA BE A LUCKY, FAST, GIT TA BE SNEAKY!
Oranze iz wat you getz when youz wanna go fast an' look like a fangzy gubbins while doin it.
Purple make Orks armour extra strong, shame you never see Orks wearing purple.
Orange is a fast explosive
Just hope they dont find out that they can paint stuff in all the colors
