roleplaying muds where i can play a warhammerish orc?
 

hello all! being a fan of the warhammer games as well as thinking on playing Warhammer fantasy battles, i want to be able to play a mud where orcs are warhammerish in nature, whether it is a warhammer mud or not. the orcs must be PLAYABLE!

also i'm looking for muds with other playable races such as:
1. kobold (lizardman version)
2. troglodyte (not the caveman one from UO, the lizardman version)
3. goblin
4. illithid (though i think only D&D has this squid man race)

Warhammer 40k Cerberus Campaign, maybe? They've got a listing on the MUD Connector. Telnet addy seems to be enigma.dune.net 6115 and seems to be active. No listing here or on the MU*Wiki, though, and no game website in the TMC listing. The listing indicates they have orks, but it *is* the 40k-style, not necessarily the fantasy battles.

both orks and orcs are good :)
too bad this is a mux though... not even a combat system yet :(

We're not Warhammer-based, but you might want to check out

One of our various orc-based advertisements, and it mostly survived the forum transition. We're roleplay-required, per your other listed criterion.

do these orcs live in tribes and can't belong to the more civilized factions? if so, i'm in!

Yes! Your initial hometown choices, out of our 20 or so options: Grinning Skull Village
After playing for a bit, you may use a registry to change to any of the following hometowns: Grinning Skull Village.
Of the nine player-run cabals and quasi-cabals, the ones which accept orcish applicants: Grinning Skull Village. The leadership of GSV consists of a system of one governmental figure with the qualification of "The guy who murdered the last chief". Orcish elections to date: Zero.
Of our 16 classes, orcs may choose any of the following: Berserker

Skill list available here:

By a quick count, berserkers have about 54 skills not available to other classes, plus about 40 class-specific Edges (in addition to dozens of non-class-specific ones) such as "Opportunistic Bastard" and "Brutalizer of the Handicapped" which can be earned through roleplay, combat, exploration, and other acheivements. Class-specific list is here:

Re: roleplaying muds where i can play a warhammerish orc?
 

The players are wrong. :P There hasn't been an orc in a cabal for years.
