So, whilst looking through my copy of Gorkamorka: Da Uvver Book, it seems pretty clear that Grots and Ork Youths (Yoofs as the game calls them) are separate species. Atinoda 05:23, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Yeah there was a pretty OTT detailed bit about ork bioligy and mushsroom spores and things. squigs! they should be mentoined here i think. Basically it said that an ork contained not just the DNA to make an ork but also a form of toadstool, squigs, snots and grots so that all the species would appear on a planet, and that all the species shedded spores which would develop into mushrooms which in the right circumstances would grow an orkoid inside them in a sort of underground root.sack thing.

oh yeah also wasn't there that thing originally about 'brainboys' where originally the snots had been the intellegent orkoids but required a special kind of mushroom, sort of like royal jelly, the feilds of which were destroyed by an ork rebellion so that none of them now develop. I think taht was quite old fluff tho.

[edit] Gretchins belong in 40K

So I will Delete the Warhammer Fantasy- Category. {{subst:80.223.169.207}}

I've restored the category as Goblin (Warhammer) redirects here and there is Warhammer Fantasy content on this page. --Pak21 09:08, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gretchins are not part of WFB.

The term "Gretchin" is only used, read and seen in texts and books of Warhammer 40,000.

NOT Warhammer Fantasy battle. The term "Goblin" is used there.

We must seaparate these two, because as the official publishers have said, Warhammer FaBa and Warhammer 40k are two different games and worlds and should not be mixed.

Makes sense. No?

There. All help is welcome. Arctic-Editor 17:47, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

• However, the word "Grot" is used in both settings... 81.235.171.21 (talk) 17:33, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
