Orcs of course! They always got the funky stuff first!

Aww shucks ,i was thinking about squighopper racing…as much fun as the orky bar fight!

I wanted to go with skaven (my first wargaming army), but I am contractually obligated to vote "slann" or "squats" whenever given the option.

BTW its SLANN, not SLAAN. I am mindful of it, because half the Warhammer frogmen on Ebay are called "slaan".

Almost as prevalent mistake as "Rouge Trader".

I'd say Orcs, Chaos or Empire are close but I went with orcs because warhammer orcs are warhammer orcs.

Some people can't help it, it is just in their make-up.

@ Cardinil Hawkwood

Warhammer. It's quite a popular& well known wargame using miniatures.

Hmmm… Warhammer? I went with Skaven. Orks/Orcs are LotR for me.

Voted Chaos Dwarfs as being Iconic. Not the most recognized race. Hands down that is the Orcs. But the Orcs are widely prevalent in almost all fantasy games. Chaos Dwarves just screams GW. and since it was a GW specific question…

@ SMC 1
I think he was pretending to never have heard of Warhammer.

SLAAN

at least they are unique to Warhammer.

Orcs and dwarves struck me at first, but High Elves seem to me more iconic of WarHammer – not that I have any (well – not true – one – No. 2 son painted me one once)

Is it called White Elf lips, Is it called Green ORC Magaizne. No,it is the white dwarf mag. Now Dwarves are the reason the warhammer universe exists. And thats why Grotrek and Snoori defend the world.

@Karpathian My sister wouldn't have to pretend…

I voted Chaos. Not many other places do you see the Chaos (including all of it's variety), but just about everywhere do you have elves and orcs.

Editor, why is "orcs" not a recognized word in the dictionary but "elves" is?
