Yep, as a fictional concept they are fascinating. They’re less of a nation or a race, but more like an invading self contained ecosystem that makes supply lines obsolete. Their technology is so ridiculous that it’s almost useless in other species hands, but they can pillage their enemies weapons to their own advantage. Their entire species social class structure is based on merit, biggest ork is DA BOSS, because it’s biologically baked into them.

And if a small Ork becomes Boss, he will get bigger until he’s the biggest… Because they all believe he’s supposed to, so he does.
“Oh fuck, you’re gonna make me WAAAGH”
They’re like lobsters they never stop growing, more they fight bigger they get. It’s part of their life cycle, it’s like sleep for us.
