Just curious, but if the Orcs were to go to war with Dwarves in say another universe (LoTC don't got enough orcs) would Orc really even need helmets/chestplates? I'm trying to imagine 4-5 foot tall dwarves hitting the 8-12 foot tall Orcs... Doesn't seem possible to strike those areas with melee weapons.

The reason Dwarves are on par with Orcs is not because of sheer fighting prowess, rather it is for two other means. One, as Volutional said, they are adept siege workers, able to tone the masses with huge weaponry. And two, Orcs kill off the majority of their young. Every orc Cub is subject to a harsh early life, and they allow much of their potential forces to die. They prefer strength over numbers.

Someone needs to update this apparently...http://www.lordofthecraft.net/wiki/index.php?title=Orcs
Says Orcs take good care of their young, so they survive.
