Wc1-2 hordes were too disorganized including wc2, thats why they lost. Lack of disipline and organization. Thats the biggest reason for them losing.

Bah! Tree hugger new orcs...

Lol, sure they were more disorganized, but that's the point! They were meant to be barbaric and have the lovely thing which I call bloodlust.

But changing 'em so quickly just really set 'em off balance. It just seems a tad strange.

But I like both of 'em in general so I say,

Meh

Wc1-2 for the win! Sure the new horde has better graphics, but other than their pretty nice shamanism... they're so... well, not gay, just not as cool as before.

Chaos is da winz for da green-skinz!

Go merciless, bloody killing machine chaos orcs! The new ones would never stand a chance versus the WC1 - 2 orcs.

The ONLY reason they got far anyway is because they overrun. Alliance has too skilled of warriors. Orcs have few who are actually skilled
Like doomhammer for example and hellscream.

Plus they wore little to no armor.

If they were more organized, more armored and skilled. they w uld only need half of WC2 horde to beat Alliance

Orcs in WC1-2 are in clumps with there clans, they are really disorganized

i like both, but old horde takes the point. you'r suppose to relate to the new horde more i guess but i think they should of had old horde as atleast one of the villians.

Disorganized and lack of discipline, and strategy was there key to losing.
If they had all of these things, they would have won

Actually, they most likely couldnt. Sure they could break through the walls eventually, but they didnt have trolls with them... Plus even if they destroyed Lordaeran, the Alliance Army can still squash the horde at this point at full force. Horde kept sending and sending to where they would "eventually" overwhelm and destroy there enemy, they didnt have a constant supply, they had 1 giant force that slowly was destroyed. Also Stormreavers wasnt a big loss besides lack of warlocks, Stormreavers was the smallest clan of only warlocks. Its possible they would have taken Lordaeran, but that wouldnt stop the Alliance Army. All the horde had left with them at the time was i think a few dragons, few ogres, and lot of orcs, thats really all. Trolls stayed at Quel'thalas, thats the only reason they joined the horde was so they can attack quel'thalas

they didn't only lose a small amount of soldiers they lost 2 generals and the flexiblity of their frontlines, it would of been nearly inpossible to take the city with only two full sized independant bodies as tactics like flanking and even the ability to call for back up would be impossible.

and as it is stated that they lost nearly have their standing force when he deserted that is meaningless

Joke? Explain yourself, why a joke?

They appeared fearsome and powerful but at the end of it, they didn't achieve a lot, they were still slaves and they fought among themselves (Stupid). Cool or not, they didn't win the Second War.

Thrall's horde instead tried to make up for mistakes of the past by trying to avoid any conflicts with the humans. The burning legion was a bigger threat and Archimonde was finally stopped.

One word: Doomhammer. Thrall may be generous and in-tune with the elements and all that crap, but Doomhammer was a real leader.

And yes, the Old Horde would've won if Gul'dan hadn't betrayed them. Doomhammer wouldn't have had to split his forces and the Alliance wouldn't have had time to regroup.

I'm definitly Ord Horde. Then again, I grew up on Warcraft II and I don't like a lot of the developments in WoW so I'm probably biased against the newer Horde.
