Horde vs Klingons

Who would win in a fight? The Horde, or Klingons

Do the Klingons have their birds-of-prey? Does the Horde have their magic users?

Are you talking about the og Horde or modern Horde? I’m pretty sure Klingons could take on the modern Horde easily.

Depends a lot on how you’d let the magic and technology interact. Hypothetically, the Klingons could just vaporize the horde without ever leaving their ships. However, if it were done in such a way that say, a magical barrier could block their weapons, that changes things a bit. In an army-to-army ground battle, assuming the weapons and magic have approximate equality to each other, it becomes a straight up battle of attrition. Where are they fighting? How many on each side? Special units? Resource availability? Reinforcements? Environmental factors? Do you wanna account for disease and things like that? How detailed we gettin’ here? Lol

No space battles. No starships. The Klingons are allowed to have their bat’leth’s and hand held disruptors in combat.

My brain went to TNG episode where everyone devolved and Worf had a pheremone organ to mark his mate. Orcs getting sprayed.

Just remember…

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Or in the native Klingon…

Yeah but Worf really only had that in that episode. He lost that when they re evolved him.

Saying both sides have approximately equal numbers and the disruptors and magic are somewhat equivalent… I honestly give it to the horde. They have a greater variety of strategic avenues and a more diverse army bringing different skill sets to the table. Orcs, Tauren and Trolls of combat classes holding the front lines with ranged support from mages, hunters, warlocks, etc. Flanking maneuvers performed by Goblins and Vulpera, along with hidden ambushes from stealthed rogues. Active combat healers make a huge difference as well. Perhaps even the Forsaken deploy biological and chemical weapons, as they are known to do. Shamans calling up the very land to fight against the Klingons. Druids can drop shock troopers into the fray along with being there themselves.

Something of note if we’re trying to be lore-accurate rather than by game mechanics; Orcs and especially Tauren are absolutely massive. An average male Tauren stands around 10 feet tall and over 600 pounds. Lore-wise, they could crush humans like eggs. And while Klingons are tough and resilient, they aren’t nearly that big or that strong, they’re equivalent to an exceptional human. (around 6ft, 300lbs) A Tauren could practically ragdoll a Klingon.
