A lovely story! Very well described combat, I could almost FEEL it from reading it. Good job!

The italics on quotations made me think they were just thoughts at first. The cliff hanger ending was cool and I liked the orc characterization

Love Orcs, love Dwarves. Fantastic story.
In particular I liked the description of Orcs going more brown with age and young Orcs being considered 'ripening'. It gave the exact concept without further explanation. Really well done.
Some awesome imagery in this piece! The second-to-last paragraph is an excellent setup... but also excellent suspense. Well written!
Nice call back to the old ER'We Go Ork books on lifecycle (or at least it looked like it), good read!
You crushed the title, Greenskin. And the flow of the story was excellent. The ending felt a tad on the nose, but otherwise I dig it. Plus, good to see the grudge lives on.
First off, incredible title. Most creative I have seen so far. As for the story, it was very well written. I loved how much you captured Orc energy and mindset. You stuck to the theme too, but I would advise against using the exact theme word for word at the end. Great story!
I enjoy the characterization of the boss and how you wrote the orcs in a non-Warhammer way and how you worked in the dwarf-orc rivalry.
