The power level of playable races in Lore

[Zulkhan]

Again being fecund doesn't mean hiving birth to 6 kids all at once, Kilrogg could easy have had those 3 sons in just as many years with one orc women, given what we know of their maturity rates.

Considered how the bit about Kilrogg and his sons was written in the very novel where Garona makes her claims, your weak assumptions lose some ground before the established canon.

Varian's wife died, and he wan't exactly in a good position to find another wife there for awhile, tho he probably should have married Jaina around Mop a squirted out another kid or two. Tess Gremane would have died as an infant without that one alchemist to help her, probably put a hamper on any baby making. There could be a Proudmoore or two left out there. Tirion was exiled from his wife so no more baby making there.

Why not mention then that Golka, Garrosh's mother, died before possibly "squirting" some other kid too? You don't want to lose a precious piece of your (anecdotal) evidence?

Considering her only experiences with orc pregnancies were during the era the orcs were ruled by the shadow council the same era in which orc children were aged with magic in order to make soldiers more quickly she had no experience with how Orcs were naturally supposed to breed and grow, that is until she pushed out Med'an, granted she is a half orc and he was 1/4 but still.

Again, this is called an assumption. All we know is orcs commonly give birth to litters.

And you are arguing against the newer post orc overhaul cannon, unless either one of us wants to tweet a dev about orc birthing numbers an actually gets a response, we should probably go by the most recent information.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. And the most recent information didn't say squat about the litters. You have weird understanding of an overhaul. Or canon. Most words you attempt to use, actually.

Except every orc pregnancy we have actually seen.

Which could very well be statistical outliers. As opposed to a general statement about Orc pregnancies...

Gnomes > ALL


They're the most clever race ever.

Intelligence > Everything else

Gnomes win. Sorry

Same could be said for just about every race, most lore heros have few if any kids, even tho its kind of their duty to breed like rabbits.

And yet it only counts for Orcs as proof that some overhaul took place

Its a good thing with their intelligence they decided to nuke their own city then or we would have a real problem.

Once again how many pregnancy's would it take for you to accept it? Remember no one seemed to being up the fact it was odd the those orc ladies only birthed one child. Feel free to tweet a Dev, but imo when you have two cannon sources contradicting eachother, its best to go with the most current one.

Individual, specific cases do not contradict an established general trend.

Westfall shows The Kindom of Stomwind has an excess of people it is having trouble supporting in the current political environment.

It shows that excess how?

Its not like we got hard evidence they were ever born in liters in the first place, it was an anecdotal story told by Garona to Khadgar, its pretty clear from how blizzard is actually writing orc pregnancy's that the liter thing isn't true canon anymore i mean if you want to use an anecdotal comment form a book 16 years ago pre orc face lift, to fit your agenda instead of the current lore i guess that's your prerogative, ill use the most recent cannon hard evidence when talking about current orc populations however. Its not like Blizzard hasn't changed lore before See Garona Draenei and other cases.

You don't even know how evidence, argumentation, anecdotes or canon work, what they are or what they mean. I wouldn't put myself on some pedestal if I were you.

lol don't even try this argument. You don't actually care, you just don't want to be wrong.

Judging by their every single post in this thread, I'm having doubts if it's not the opposite actually. Because that's some heavy dedication to being wrong right here.

Gnomes win. Sorry

Well, I definitely feel sorry for them. That's why merciful killings are a thing.
