Poll: Speakin Orky!

[WOPR]

My question is
first off
how many of you have played "Dawn of War" or have had anything to do with Warhammer 40k?

second off (and more aimed at the Dawn of War players)How many of you ted to speak "orky" after the fact?

Yes, of course, I have played 'Dawn of War', what kind of philistine do you take me for?!

However, certainly not, sir! I do not speak... Orkish. How unrefined can you be?!

(Yeah, guess what race I play...)

I can't tell... Sisters of Battle Imperial Guard

but I'm leaning strongly towards Space Marines

EDIT: I played Chaos Marines, Tried and didn't like Necron a much as I had hoped, REALLY liked Dark Eldar, but I seem to always go back to Chaos Space Marines

I own all of the Dawn of War games, but have only currently played through Dawn of War II and the Chaos Rising expansion (In the middle of playing through the Ork campaign in Retribution, then I'll play Dawn of War I). I think the series has an interesting universe behind it but I can't afford to play the actual game. I do really like the Orks.

I used to play a little table top WH40k but now I just play DoW2. I usually just play Space Marines but I do like how the orks talk, especially the little Grot/ Gretchin that tells you stuff while in battle.

*meh* Eldar, actually...

I iz a memba ov da kult ov da Empra.

Oi loiks da Tau an' da inkerzishun betta, but da Orks 'ave always apea-apl- oh bugger dis, Oi loik da Orks!

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

I've played Dawn of War (and I, in fact, play Dawn of War 2 regularly) but I do not care for the orks. They don't fit my sensibilities in the slightest. Not a fan of the "expendable troop" malarkey, and much prefer the specialist troops of the Eldar or the general purpose Space marines. The introduction of Imperial Guard more or less doomed the orks entirely as a common army choice as they simply don't have a lot of good options when facing IG, especially early on.

 

[MrStab]

The Imperial Guard, Chaos Space Marines and SIsters of Battle are my favourites but I don't mind the Tau on occasion.

I actually did the voice work for a few Ork units for a Dark Crusade mod years ago. It's definitely not up to professional voice acting standards, but it was deemed satisfactory:

It's not that hard, really. All you have to do is hunch over and stick your jaw out. When you form words, rely entirely on your jaw for enunciation rather than your lips. Finally, lower your voice and speak from the back of your throat.

If you do these things you can't help but sound like an Ork.

Yeh, dat's right, humie! Like dat! Ya got it!

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!!!

 

[Vern5]

I love all of the Dawn of War games (except maybe Soulstorm) and most of the books.

But, I don't know about speaking-

HWEE CAPTURED IT FOR CHAAOOSS!!!

-in any form other than normal English. It seems rather unlikely that a little bit of Gothic Sci-fi RTS goodness would bring on such a change...

I FEEL THE WARP OVERTAKING ME. IT IS A GOOD PAIN!!

Highly unlikely..

 

[SckizoBoy]

Yeah... I ended up yelling a TF2 match "All right, boyz, 'ere's da plan: Win. And if we lose, it's your fault... 'cause you didn't follow da plan!"

They all started laughing

That, sir, is pure 100% unadulterated win!!

Did you win, perchance?

wow I must have been REALLY tired to mess THAT one up...
