I dont know if anyone remembers but a while back i was needing help creating an Orc race for DF.

They are completley sucsessful btw, relativley balanced, but they ussally defeat humans in melee combat, but cannot fire ranged weapons.

Now when the new version comes out i plan on making a orcish village in my grand vision, i just wondered if they should have any plants. I thought a main way for them to make food would be hunting/farming livestock (as atm they are cannibals) However i dunno if i will be able to sustain a population large enough to enable me to have battles with these numbers. I wonder if anyone has a suggestion/Opinion on orcish seeming plants.

Also, Is there a way to amke them use lesser amounts of armor? For instance not wear chainmail just plate mail?

Heres something i used  in my old plant mod.
Dont know if this is what your looking for though.

I dunno, is it farmable? I kinda am looking for a very orcish plant for them to farm. Im going to build their civ all aboveground and have them mostly live off of meat. I dunno if i could do it tho.

It's a tree.

However there was a Bloodsack plant from goblins mod which is quite full and customized.

[Dasleah]

Something like this, perhaps?

[Kagus]

The berserker palm appears to be farmable.  It is also in no way a tree.

Remove the armor you don't want from their entity .txt file, the lines to delete look like

[ARMOR:ITEM_ARMOR_CHAINMAIL:COMMON]
