You're a bit dull so let me explain it to you, The Uzg had fallen when you gave Oren casus beli to take your **** with the previous disease Smaw spread last map, and with raiding them alongside dreadlanders. It's not really accurate to say my Rexdom ended the orcs as there were hardly any orcs there when I came to power. I started a civil war alongside Deano to generate RP and lead to a unified force and spur RP and activity. This was soured by the Oren warclaim, but nothing you can really do about that. I wanted to give you guys the chance, the hope we could win against a force we clearly weren't going to beat. The chance to go down as a real orc should.
Trying to scapegoat this races problems onto specific people isnt going to help at all, but I think looking back we can see whenever we had a shitty Rex, orc RP died and we've been taken advantage of by any superior power. When we have a strong Rex, rp picks up and orcs become active.
Smawton has complained time and time again about how the old orcs ***** and moan but he's literally alienated anyone that used to play an Orc with his poor decisions and national design. He should never have been Rex, he doesn't have the backbone nor the capacity to run this race. And we clearly saw that during his tenure.
Moral of all of this:. It isn't this races lore that needs rework, its the people running it.
