Yes, that is probably an important part of the idea, but I do think the Krork were capable and even good at 'normal' warfare and didn't rely on breaking down their opponents over time, like this. You can read more about the Oddboyz, the Orks and their design in my Index Orkicus article.

It also say krorks were designed to be totally without fear, the necrons main weapon, but orks today seem not to be so...fearless... is that the word, might the Madboyz be the ones that carry the remnants of this genetic trait, thats assuming you include them in your list of orky society of course

Madboys aren't necessarily fearless. In fact, some of them are actually more cowardly than grots! Madboyz are just... mad.

Hello.
I've just read your Ork Essay CELS, and its good to see the other lesser known Oddboyz.
However, reading through my Gorkamorka 'Da uvver book', I think their might be another class of Oddboy: The 'Slopper'.

LoL! Excellent stuff. Are they Oddboyz though. By oddboyz, I mean a seperate class of Orks who share a common genetic divergence. Sloppers don't seem to have a special quality that sets them apart from other orks, except their job.

Nice. I like the ork 'chef' imagery. Anyone like to convert a Slopper with a big hat and a cleaver?

Well, I imagine they'd have to be some form of 'Oddboy', since your common Ork Boy isn't going to spend his time preparing food and dreaming up 'speshul dish ov da day' for their customers to try out. They might however, be a sub-group of Brewboys, since the fulfil a similiar role in Ork society. Sort of like 'Boiler boyz' are a form of 'Sub-Mek' to feral Orks.
