[Archive] Is This Ok?

Mukfox:

Hey I’m new Here, I’m Not Really A Chaos Dwarf Warlord (I’m A Goblin One,) But I Would Like Some Advice About Some Stuff Chaos Dwarf Related.

Right I Just Started Up My New Goblin Army (Called 'Da Red Grom’itz), Based Around Grom. But I’m really get In to Detail So I’m Writing Up A Story (Or What Ever Ya Wanna Call It). Right Here We Go:

A Goblin Shaman Of Misty Mountains Notics a Red Comet Heading East To The Dark lands And has A Vision That It Is A Spit Ball From Mork (Or Even Gork) and That It Is Grom Reborn. So They Head Out To See Where It Leads, (Ok Skip Abit For It Is A Long Story) Anyway The Comet Crashes Near A Chaos dwarf hideout.

Now Here Is Were I Need The Help, my idea was that in the chaos dwarf hideout they have grom held captive and my goblins battle the dwarfs and free grom. see i dont know to much about chaos dwarfs, is this story ok? and if so is there anything extra i could add?

thanks for the help

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer:

How about making it crash near a chaos dwarf slave camp, where they have recently made grom a slave. That would work, remember chaos dwarfs have lots of greenskin slaves.

Also, are you talking about Grom the Paunch?

Im sure a slave camp would be heavily defended though. How would a bunch of goblins be able to defeat them?

Mukfox:

Yeah that sounds better i guess then the goblins wont have to travel all the way across the darklands, maybe just half the way.

and yes i’am, or as i like to call him grom the slightly overweight.

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer:

Oh okay, so what exactly is all of your fluff.  I would like to hear some more detail on it if you don’t mind. I doubt a slave camp would be heavily defended, it would probably be chiefly defended by hobgoblins. And what about this:

The chaos dwarfs are attacking Grom and are trying to capture him in a slave raid. That would make it cooler and Grom could be an objective marker or something.

Goblins are still no match for Hobgoblins and if its a slave camp then im sure there would be some sort of Chaos Dwarf presence.

Your idea about the chaos dwarfs not having captured grom already is good. Maybe the gobllins could have a sorceror with them as well to make it more believale that they could defeat the chaos dwarf/hobgoblin force.

Mukfox:

I was thinking that, but i guess the chaos dwarfs could have gone to see the comet that crashed only leaving 40% of its normal defence there to protect it (edit) and yeah i was gonna have 1 goblin shaman and 1 night goblin shaman.

Well i haven’t got to far stroy wise, but what i have so is that on the way to the darklands da red gromitz come in to contact with a night goblin tribe which will not let them pass because they think they are after the gold in mad dog pass (which is a group of dwarfs carrying supplys) so a battle heats up.so da gromitz win some of the night goblins join (at which point i was thinkin of buy the skull pass set.)

after that near the end of mad dog pass they spot the dwarfs carrying the supplys, which the gromitz which the gromitz just have to attack.

then thats about as far as i got in detail and my fingers are hurting lol.

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer:

Or perhaps a hobgoblin traitor let the goblins past the defenses and into an ambush and then the greenskin slaves joined the attacking goblins and slaughtered everyone.

But I like the idea of a small chaos dwarf force coming in for some easy slaves to be ambushed from behind by your goblin army.

Mukfox:

can hobgoblins join a normal goblin army? I think i’ll use the idea of grom fighting but should he me mounted or not?

i was all so thinking after all this a tribe of chaos dwarfs chase the goblins back over to the west, would a CD tribe do this you think? maybe grom has something they want?

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer:

Yeah, perhaps Grom stole a very important chaos dwarf artifact in the midst of battle.

Pyro Stick:

Yeah, perhaps Grom stole a very important chaos dwarf artifact in the midst of battle.

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer
Very Important artifacts wouldnt be kept at a slave camp.

Mukfox:

ture, or maybe its just want grom, because he can regenerate maybe?

anyway thanks for the help i’ll write it down 2morw, i’ll try get some pictures up (maybe, my paniting still sucks a bit) and i’ll probley write the story out propley soon.

Kera foehunter:

or a pirate skum !!! then he be grom the fat and could do anything!!

Okay I think I can get it all worked out:

The newly established slave camp of Thagg Duraz was already starting to bring in thousands of greenskin slaves. However, it had one flaw, it was lightly guarded and home to nearly twice as many slaves. By the High Sorcerer of Zharr Naggrund Sorcerer Drakkaz DarkAxe was ordered to garrison with a small force of chaos dwarf warriors and look for a certain slave that was said to be resting there, Grom the Paunch.

However, when Drakkaz arrived a horde of goblins ambushed and rallied the slaves to revolt. Drakkaz and his small army was utterly destroyed, Drakkaz and his guards were slaughtered and there corpses looted.

Grom and his goblin rescuers along with the slaves fled the slave camp before chaos dwarf reinforcements could arrive. They fled with the loot of a chaos dwarf army and a particular valuable artifact of Drakkaz. Now the survivors of the chaos dwarf army have made a grudge to get the item back and have started to pursue the army into the western world.

Grimstonefire:

I think you should convert a hobgoblin to lead one of your units.  As a race generally they are despised by other greenskins, but a sneaky git could make a good hero (counts as a regular gobbo hero).

He could help grom to escape.

Hobgoblyn:

can hobgoblins join a normal goblin army? I think i'll use the idea of grom fighting but should he me mounted or not?

Mukfox
Hobgoblins don't have a problem with Goblins so much... except that they aren't as reliant on Goblin slaves as Orcs are and so they are much more likely to sell off Goblin slaves to others rather than integrate them into their society at the bottom of a totem pole.

Hobgoblins have a problem with Orcs as the two races despise each other representing two totally different paths of advancement from normal goblins. And the Hobgoblins also undermined the Black Orc's attempt to annhiliate the Chaos Dwarfs... because they hate Orcs, because the Chaos Dwarfs rewarded them and because if the Chaos Dwarfs were gone the Hobgoblin Khanites would have to fight the Orc legions.

So Goblins who serve Orcs or who prefer being slaves to Orcs to being slaves to Chaos Dwarfs certainly don't like Hobgoblins. But... an all-goblin army serving a goblin master shouldn't have any real problem recruiting Hobgoblins by jingling a bit of gold their way.

Mukfox:

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer i’m gonna use most of that if ya dont mind it fits in nice.

As for the hobgobs, i’m gonna use 20 of the night gobs for the skull pass set to make a unit. And use the dwarfs to start a mini CD army (which i look foward to.)

I was thinking they catch grom but dont understand if his an orc or goblin, so is left with a group of hobgobs while someone goes to ask what to do with him. But a sneaky git in charge of the hobgobs left in charge notices its grom and makes a deal and sets him free but the CDs see his and a battle heats up. But thank Gork (or probley Mork) that the red gromits turn up. Planned by the gods? maybe.

anyway i’ll start writing the fluff out 2morw coz i’m at work but its snowin so its not gonna be busy.

Thane Godri GoblinSlayer:

Nah, I don’t mind. Always glad to help a fellow greenskin. :h

Cryonicleech:

‘Elp a greenskin e’ sayz! wat a load a zog! ya should be choppin each uvva! WAAAGH!

that aside, I am really liking your fluff, please, do continue.

Mukfox:

Thanks well i write the first chapter of the fluff up already just need to post it, just aint had the time. maybe friday afternoon x
