I'm always wondering what colors has what effect to Orks. We know that "Tha red un's go fasta!" but what about the other colors?
Red un'z go FAASTAA! Green iz BEZT!! Blu iz lucky, makes dem bullitz miss ya! Black is DED 'ARD!! Purppl is sneaky, you evah seen a purppl Ork? Yellow makez da biggest BOOOMS az well as da most shiny gubbinz and teef!! White is da color of deff! (you may have trouble reading this one and the above) Edit 1: In more complex terms: Red means speed, which is why Blood Angels have tanks with the Fast rule. (Speed Freakz) Green being their skin color, it's automatically the best. Blue is the color of luck to an Ork, which often translate to avoiding injuries or finding better loot. (Deff Skullz) Black is considered tough, hard to kill, capable of shrugging extreme damage. (Goffs) Purple has become sort of a joke/meme amongst the Ork community, since nobody has ever seen a purple Ork. Yellow is the color of their teef, which is the Ork currency, more currency = better weapons = more flash, also believed that yellow rockets make the biggest explosions. (Bad Moons) White is death, the color of bones. Edit 2:
that logic on the second comic strip actually makes sense in a Ork sort of way surprised it didn't work.
Reminds me of this joke: Q: How do you kill an elephant? A: With an elephant gun. Q: How do you kill a blue elephant? A: With a blue elephant gun. Q: How do you kill a red elephant? A: You choke it till it turns blue, then you shoot it with a blue elephant gun. Q: How do you kill a purple elephant? A: There's no such thing as a purple elephant!
Pink is the color of Orks secure enough in their own sexuality ... er ... Asexuality. That's a lie. But I do like it still
