I can't see why they'd introduce orcs, how would their stats differ from fire giants? They'd obviously have to be really stupid and would probably be really strong and healthy. They'd be strong and stupid, yes, but there would definitely be some differences between Orcs and Fire Giants. The whole fire/ice resistance/vulnerability would be gone. They'd be smaller. Probably less strong. They could be like dwarfs, except bigger, stupider, not vulnerable to water, and able to be _evil_. Another interesting idea would be to introduce Orc tribes. Depending on what tribe you're from, you get one or two special traits. And maybe Orcs from different tribes can't group together... But in general, I agree that you'd have to really "work" to make them different and interesting.
