Default Re: New races-maintenance reduction

When I was doing up the Orks, I was trying to make them follow the Orks from Warhammer 40K/Battle Fleet Gothic. (as quoted from the Orks codex - We iz gonna stomp da 'ooniverse flat an' kill anyfing that fights back. We iz gonna do this coz' we're Orks an' we was made ta fight an' win. - and - Orkses is never beaten in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die so it don't count as beat. if we runs fer it we don't die neither, so we can always come back for anuvver go, see!) I tried to keep that attitude for them along with thier perferred use of drifting space hulks, so I felt that drastically reducing thier political savvy was fitting with thier ethics, and the drastically boosting thier maitenance to fit with their single minded warlike attitude, and the bizaar mindset of thier engineers. I also greatly increased thier physical strength even befor eI had them invading planets because thier suppose to be big, mean, green, and scary, along with giving them some distinct disadvantages to exploit that fit them.
