Oopsie. I knew orks were faster, but thought Trolls slower. How embarassing.
Oh, well. Still, it doesn't seem right to me that a half ton of troll should
be formed quicker than a .8 kilo human when force-grown. In this case, I
assume the proper growth hormones and whatnot are circulating at maximum
anyway, so I'd ignore the standard racial growh times and instead just go by
sheer mass. (Elves wouldn't take any longer than humans, for example)
