Next adventure, my players will find themselves infiltrating an orcish army in order to depose the current warlord. While a big part of that is going to be two one-on-one fights(I'm having the players control the other's opponent), an even bigger part is learning about what the warlord has done to upset his people while leading them to serve the fiends they're now working with. I need at least four potential grievances, though more would be better. Here's what I have so far:
-He's forcing the orcs to take up demon worship, while they used to worship ancestral spirits and Gorum, the god of war.
-He's given all of the orcish women to the fiends in order to produce fast growing half-fiend soldiers. They've taken prisoners from villages they've razed to help fill the void, but it's not the same.
Any suggestions for possible things a power-mad orcish leader might do that would give my players ammunition for turning his army against him?

They've forced the general populace to end every sentence with "zug zug". Failure to comply is punishable by death!
Zug zug.

He desecrated one of their sacred sites by converting it into a demon worship place.
He's changing their proud history by making it seem that all the heroic deeds carried out in the past were in the name of the demon.

He makes them all talk like the city guards in Oblivion.
He won't let them pillage unless they've filled out an RJ-17 form first.
He makes them use a drug/potion made from sacred materials/always reserved for Gorum's shamans.
HOLY CRAP I MADE AN ACTUAL SUGGESTION
THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED

I've come up with a few more of my own. First of all, I added an enmity towards ogres, which allows for some problems occurring when ogres have been given leadership positions over the orcs.
Second, I'm adding in reports that the honored corpses of fallen warriors aren't being given the proper treatment. Instead of being given to the sacred flames as befitting their deaths, they are being given to some kind of strange new allies who are using them to field a horrifying undead army. For a culture that worships its ancestors, I suspect that this could be seen as a grievous affront.
