The single being with the most entries in the Dammaz Kron (The Great Book of Grudges) is a night goblin warlord named Skarsnik, Lord of the Eight Peaks. Considering Cazador II, the Phoenix King during the War of the Beard, had a about 437, one can only imagine how many Dwarfs had lost their beards trying to exact vengeance on the cunning little git.
It might be a bit too early to plan, but a Realm of Ridicolous special dedicated to BLOODBOWL for the Superbowl weekend could be the most beautiful thing ever ‘innit?
orcs do get smarter as they age, some orcs when not waaaghing even create settlements where those brave enough could potentially even trade with them, these "squatter kings" are ancient, powerful and dangerous, i reccomend the Lorebeards stream on Black Crag to find out more about them cause its really interesting
One of the scariest things about Grom is the fact that since he was from a wolfrider tribe he wasn't a siegeloving guy, this made his WAAAAAGH atypical since orc led waaaaaghs will often try to besiege a place and fall to infighting, Grom however being a goblin didn't have the patience for this and he just moved on, he didn't do sieges, some parts of his waaaagh still split of and did sieges but Grom would not keep up a siege. This meant that grom's waaaaagh would last DECADES! he was genuinely one of the most succesful warbosses ever, the empire due to Dieter not even warning the elector counts or summonning the armies, got steamrolled, they weren't ready to split up the horde (which you have to do if you don't want to get overrun when fighting a WAAAAgh!) another factor was that the high king, enraged by dieters refusal to help his people make a stand against the greenskins forbade all kings from aiding the empire until dieter was dead, the priesthood of sigmar, who see the dwarfs as important in their religion were furious at the emperor. Grom's WAAAAAGH! also killed of the largest population of Gnomes left in the old world and in his wake he also left multiple goblin tribes which still plague the empire to this day
Probably the thing I like most about Fantasy Greenskins is that both Orcs AND Goblins get to share the spotlight. Specifically, I love the bigger presence Goblins have in greenskin society and warfare. They're definitely still weaker to Orcs but can play to their smarter/manipulative ways enough for them to elevate themselves into becoming powerful Shamans and Warbosses in their own right (imagine that, a puny Goblin bossin' Orcs around). In this setting, its the Goblins that perfectly represent Mork's cunningly brutal side of the coin. You can have entire tribes comprised solely of Goblins and have them still be an actual, legit threat and thats sick! It just makes me sad for their 40k counterparts, the Grots/Gretchin and how much of a backseat they've taken there. Like aside from the one example of Da Red Gobbo and his Grot Rebellion, they've lost a lot of their independence and exist only to be servants to Orks.
Snaggi Littletoof from the Warboss and Big Dakka books has real potential to become a significant Grotboss if handled well, it would be awesome if something happened with him but knowing 40k lore I doubt cool things are even allowed to happen. Da Red Gobbo is kind of just a christmas mascot now its really depressing for Gobbo fans.
Yeah, Goblins being a full equal (well, perhaps not completely equal) part of the setting rather than just set dressing for the Or(c/k)s definitly is an advantage Fantasy has over 40K.
To give context to just how bad winters in Kislev are, the Warriors of Chaos tend to march through Kislev on their way to fight the empire. Most of their armies will just die from the cold and be at a fraction of their strength by the time they make it past Kislev. And as a reminder, the Warriors of Chaos tend to march SOUTH out of the Chaos Wastes near the North Pole, down through Norsca, and then hit Kislev. Now granted they're also FIGHTING the people of Kislev on their way through, and the Ice Witches tend to make things as uncomfortable as possible for the Warriors of Chaos, but it really says a lot that they're dying of exposure while marching SOUTH towards the warmer parts of the world. In short? Kislev is *COLDER THAN HELL.* And yet people somehow manage to live there, where the only season that isn't Super Winter is just regular Winter.
quick note on the lore, we can thank the chaos dwarfs for the existence of orc blacksmiths, they taught some of their orc "laborers" to do it, and after the revolution, guess where that lot went to? Had sigmar and the dwarfs not held the line at Blackfire pass all of lands beyond the mountains would've fallen
How could DK forget Grimgors biggest achievement, that GW retconned? Shouting at the Lord of the Endtimes profanities, kicking his balls in and headbutting him to the ground and leaving without elaborating during Storm of Chaos.
Maybie he's saving it for later when they talk about chaos or the end times. Knowing that Grimgor kicked Archeon in the jewls is a lot less awe-inspering not knowing how importaint the title of everchosen actualy is
@@iguanaking1361Just say it is the equivalent of if Ghaz showed up and stomped Abaddon flat right when it looked like he was about to conquer Cadia during the 13th Crusade.
Ok, Grom was actually made to eat the troll meat by orcs bullying him, as gobbos would basically explode after eating it, but somehow he digrsted it and it composed into his organism, and thus he started to grow thamks to its regenerative power
For those curious about how Orcs are in Age of Sigmar, it's a bit complicated. For one, they're renamed Orruks (because Copyright). In the jump between Warhammer Fantasy and AoS, there were three factions: the Greenskinz (the main Orcs & Goblins army; don't get attached, they get Legends'd in early 2nd ed), the Ironjawz (expansion of the Black Orcs into a full faction), and the Bonesplittaz (Savage Orcs ported over as-is). Of these, only the Ironjawz survive to the present edition, with the Bonesplittaz being removed as a viable army a few months ago. (Technically, they have interim 4th ed rules, but those are getting sent to Legends summer of next year. RIP.). 3rd ed also saw the introduction of a wholly new "Orruk" faction, in the Kruleboyz. A group of swamp-dwelling, sneaky gitz that break almost completely with the modern Warhammer Orc design language. Looking more like the "realistic" orcs from Tolkien, less cartoony and more like ugly humans. Not everyone liked the aesthetic, leading to the 3rd ed launch box ("Dominion") underselling like mad. You can still find copies of the complete box rattling around on the secondary market for about $100, which is insane for a modern edition launch product. (I picked up the Kruleboyz half of that box for $55 a couple years ago). So the current state of Orcs in AoS is a heavily armored elite faction, and a tactics-heavy tech army. So, Gork and Mork respectively. (For those wanting "Normal" Warhammer Orcs, the old Orcs & Goblins range, minus the Savage Orcs, is back in production with the launch of The Old World. Square-based, as Gorkamorka intended.)
Just a reminder that Ghaz needed to lose half he brain and go on multiple WAAAGHs to be chosen by the Gork and Mork. Grimgor Azhag, Warzag, and Skarsnik just got without even trying.
Honestly, if we are to compare how both setting treated the Greenskins: 40K Did the orks justice while fantasy cooked with the goblins. Meanwhile AOS so far seems to have more or less found a way to balance both of them.
I mean, Fantasy also has a bunch of really cool Orc characters and badass units like Black Orcs and Boar Riders. Orcs in Fantasy are definitly better off than Gretchin/Grots in 40K.
1:30:08 a thing you gotta know, almost everyone from fantasy is dead in Endtimes with only some wxceptions. A couple of the elves and dark elves are gods now. Sigmar is back. Nagash is also now a god. Lizard men are on the upswing but not the toads.
Black orcs are smart enough to collect dwarf steel from the dead and build their own makeshift foundries in camp to melt dwarf steel down and reforge them into custom black orc armor and weapons.
The OG story (storms of chaos i think?) Had Grimgor halting the end of the world by kicking Archaon in the nuts. So, yeah. Technically nobody could realistically stand against the big green menace.
To answer the question "What stops Grimgor?"... Boredom. Boredom has saved more people from Grimgor than anything else. As seen in the fight with Clan Moulder, Grimgor will eventually either lose satisfaction with the fight, or feel like he has gotten the most from it he can. He's kind of notorious for just leaving in the middle of a WAAAGH, and it falls apart without him because he's just no longer interested. Grimgor is not just looking for combat, he wants more than just to fight. He is actually very Slayed-coded in that his dream is to find something that can actually kill him, as that will be the best fight. And the result is he just gets tired of fighting weaker foes, and so goes off in search of a better fight.
on grimgor, a fun detail, he is kinda a bad leader, let me explain, he is an amazing combattant, but he just fights and doesn't really lead, most of the times he'll be the last one standing together with his immortulz
Grimgor Ironhide will always be the best Greenskin of them all. He's a Black Orc Warboss, leads his own unit of Black Orcs called "Da Immortalz", is a chosen of Gork and Mork, and decked Archaon so hard by kicking him in the nuts and headbutting him, while Archaon was in full chaos armor and helmet. That is why Grimgor iz da best Orc eva'!
Somewhat dissapointed in this. DK didn't get into the more interesting Greenskin aspects like their influence in the Worlds edge mountains, certain units like the Arachnarok spider, or simple things like terms such as "DAKKA" not existing due to how low tech they are...hell... no mention of the Doom Divers? his explanations of the various greenskin characters are pretty good however though somewhat lacking, Skarsnik speaking Khazalid would be the equiv of Ghaz speaking high gothic and he kinda lacked the well deserved embelishment Bricky has when it comes to this sorta stuff overall though episode is a solid 7 or 8/10, i just think that halfway through it just became a "Greenskin characters" episode which could've been its own episode all together (he did left out Wurrzag and all lol)
Two things I find especially interesting about Warhammer Fantasy's Greenskins compared to 40K's Orks are that they're a touch more serious because the whole of Fantasy is a touch less, and the Fantasy Goblins get way more love than the 40K Grots. The Grots have some tabletop and lore stuff like the Red Gobbo, but Goblins get major factions. When a Goblin like Skarsnik holds proportionally similar infamy to a major Ork like Ghazghkull, it's safe to say Fantasy's given the little guys their due.
I think its important for bricky to know that Skarsnik survived the end of the universe because the actual real life writers of the end times forgot he existed
I know why DK didn't share this - but I admit I am a little disappointment that he didn't mention that Grimgor won GW's first attempt at the End Times. By coming out of nowhere, headbutting the hell out of Archaon and then just buggering off.
For the part where grimgor was attacking clan moulder they should’ve sent in ghoritch probably the best rat ogre of all and throts masterpiece, ghoritch is a cyborg rat ogre with the brain of a human khorne cultist inside of it.
WAAAAAAAGHS in fantasy have only one weakness most of the time, if you can split up the horde you can make it manageable to fight them or keep them in one place for long enough, in which case infighting will break out
You should check out the total war warhammer quest battle speeches, they are really good, especially Azhag. Just avoid Throgg, his adaption isn't that great. "Rememba, dis is a cursed place, da shamans don't loike it, so don't mess wid stuff ya don't understand. If ya summon someting from da void, ya'll have ta deal wid it yurself" -Azhag
So, all in favor of DK doing an episode on 'Da Bad Moon' Morrsleib and the funky nonsense that happens when that giant semi-sentient ball of Warpstone decides to get a front row seat to something?
“Say My Name. SAY MY Name!” -Grimgor Ironhide, prophet of Gork 40k has Ghazghull, The Red Gobbo, Makari, and Ufthak. In Fantasy we have Grimgor, Grom Ahzag, and Skarsnik.
Ah, Grimgor Ironhide. As someone who plays Chorfs in Warhammer 3, you must respect Grimgor and his forces and deal with him ASAP, let’s he snowballs and rock your socks in.
Here’s some advice when dealing with orkz… If your confused at any point; stop what your doing, walk into your bathroom, look in your mirror, and say “Orkz” until you get it.
Clan Moulder are specialist breeders think of Flesh Crafters making insane monstrosities like the Drukkari. Clan Skryre are the mad scientists that invented the insane machines like Warp Throwers and Rat Gatling gun
For anyone wondering why the Slayers didn't just throw themselves at Grimgor, part of the Slayer Oath is that they must sell their lives as dearly as possible and NOT do so at the expense of another dwarf's life or honor. So, if the Slayer's can just turtle up behind the wall and wait until Grimgor leaves, they have to do that, otherwise they would not be dying a worthy death in combat, they'd just be committing suicide by Orc, and their death wouldn't absolve them of their dishonor, so their spirits would be stuck in limbo and forever denied entry into the afterlife until the day one of their surviving relatives takes the Slayer Oath on their behalf to absolve them of their dishonor. Now if the king or acting commander tells the Slayers he NEEDS them to go out and try and thin the Orc numbers in a counterattack, that's a different story, because they're just following orders, but issuing this order without proper justification or against the counsel of any advisors may be considered dishonorable, so a king or commander will very rarely tell the Slayers to go fight and die outside of a rearguard action where the Slayers are honor bound to hold the enemy at bay for as long as possible.
Granted Troll regeneration in World of Warcraft is no joke either even if it isn't the most prevalent with its feats, as there is some lore that says that because of the Loa (the gods that the Trolls worship), there was a troll that was able to regrow his whole body from just his head.
blacks orcs often get weird looks from other normal orcs by the mere fact black orcs take care of their gear, sharpenning their blades fixing their armor, the other orcs think they are wasting time like humies do with their gear
Some Age of Sigmar/Emdtimes trivia on them. Grimgor gets got by the Horus equivalent, Snarsnick looses his squig and just calls it quits, Gork and Mork are the same god with 2 heads, and theres the Meangitz in AOS who are smaller and more scheaming than normal Orcs but more stronger and love fighting more than Goblins.
I heard that Grom didn't choose to eat the troll flesh; he was forced to by orcs as part of an eating contest called "The Battle of the Bulge" where they see how long before a goblin's belly goes pop.
43:48 to answer the who stops grimgore question, he gets decapitated by archaon the everchosen (the chaos big bad) in the last battle before the world gets blown up.
One of the reasons everyone in the wh fantasy community hates the end times is that during it over half the world get destroyed by grimgore's waaagh, offscreen...... He does more damage to the world by far than chaos and we don't even get to see it.
Well if it ain't my favorite show about the old world on the internet! Thanks again for doing fantasy now guys, looking forward to you guys getting to AOS one day

51:52 Not really correct. Skarsnik is not smart for Goblin standarts, he is damn smart in general, way smarter then even most humans.

Ah, Grimgor Ironhide. As someone who plays Chorfs in Warhammer 3, you must respect Grimgor and his forces and deal with him ASAP, let’s he snowballs and rock your socks in.
Man I fokin love DK narrating ork and goblin stuff.
Here’s some advice when dealing with orkz…
If your confused at any point; stop what your doing, walk into your bathroom, look in your mirror, and say “Orkz” until you get it.
Clan Moulder are specialist breeders think of Flesh Crafters making insane monstrosities like the Drukkari. Clan Skryre are the mad scientists that invented the insane machines like Warp Throwers and Rat Gatling gun
Grimgor kicked Archeon's nuts... Yup
I thought Dk's ork voice was good but he could absolutely kill a goblin va role
For anyone wondering why the Slayers didn't just throw themselves at Grimgor, part of the Slayer Oath is that they must sell their lives as dearly as possible and NOT do so at the expense of another dwarf's life or honor.
So, if the Slayer's can just turtle up behind the wall and wait until Grimgor leaves, they have to do that, otherwise they would not be dying a worthy death in combat, they'd just be committing suicide by Orc, and their death wouldn't absolve them of their dishonor, so their spirits would be stuck in limbo and forever denied entry into the afterlife until the day one of their surviving relatives takes the Slayer Oath on their behalf to absolve them of their dishonor.
Now if the king or acting commander tells the Slayers he NEEDS them to go out and try and thin the Orc numbers in a counterattack, that's a different story, because they're just following orders, but issuing this order without proper justification or against the counsel of any advisors may be considered dishonorable, so a king or commander will very rarely tell the Slayers to go fight and die outside of a rearguard action where the Slayers are honor bound to hold the enemy at bay for as long as possible.
Ork episode for my birthday Is a kind gift
23:20 waaaaaaaeh
"Kill em with kindness."
- Grimgor Ironhide to slayers with a deathwish
Granted Troll regeneration in World of Warcraft is no joke either even if it isn't the most prevalent with its feats, as there is some lore that says that because of the Loa (the gods that the Trolls worship), there was a troll that was able to regrow his whole body from just his head.
KRUMPING IN, KRUMPING OUT!!!
1:20:07 That's...odd, given Orcs are one of the main fielders of Trolls
blacks orcs often get weird looks from other normal orcs by the mere fact black orcs take care of their gear, sharpenning their blades fixing their armor, the other orcs think they are wasting time like humies do with their gear
WE THE MEANEST AND THE GREENEST! WAAAAAAAAGH!
Some Age of Sigmar/Emdtimes trivia on them. Grimgor gets got by the Horus equivalent, Snarsnick looses his squig and just calls it quits, Gork and Mork are the same god with 2 heads, and theres the Meangitz in AOS who are smaller and more scheaming than normal Orcs but more stronger and love fighting more than Goblins.
In the original Storm of Chaos Grimgo kicked Archaon the Everchosen in the nuts and won the whole thing.
Love waking up to the realm of ridiculous
I heard that Grom didn't choose to eat the troll flesh; he was forced to by orcs as part of an eating contest called "The Battle of the Bulge" where they see how long before a goblin's belly goes pop.
no wurzzag? *sad orc dancing noises*
Mork and Gork are best Boyz
Groms flagbearer does have a name, its Niblit ... Doublecheck your sourcematerial DK, even i know this xp
38:40 i'm not sure DK knows what the word 'literally' means
grimgor was too brutal for the slayers to wanna fight him anymore, that is no small feat
Grimgor was killed by Archaon the everchosen around the end times iirc.
I love that DK's intro was posted to the patreon for free and given it's own section at the end
Yay! Ty for more Fantasy stuff! I’m gonna listen while I make small stone walls to decorate the bases of my peg knights
grimgor lead the rebellion, he leads the black orcs
Its about time DK voices an ork audio book 😂
For Australians of an advanced age - is Dame Edna Everage used “Helloooooo” Also Mrs. Doubtfire :D
Can't believe this video came out the weekend of the Orruk clan announcement!!! 💚 I get they're different, but still cool.
the slayers literally did not wanna fight grimgor cuz he was way too brutal even for them
ERE WE GO!
ERE WE GO!
ERE WE GO!
It's not troll territory, it's Troll Country
Need and Episode where they watch all the Total War Trailers
43:48 to answer the who stops grimgore question, he gets decapitated by archaon the everchosen (the chaos big bad) in the last battle before the world gets blown up.
Did Bricky seriously do the wrong ad-read lol?
One of the reasons everyone in the wh fantasy community hates the end times is that during it over half the world get destroyed by grimgore's waaagh, offscreen...... He does more damage to the world by far than chaos and we don't even get to see it.
Bring back Detective Ridiculous!
...but this episode can stay, because green is best
Well if it ain't my favorite show about the old world on the internet! Thanks again for doing fantasy now guys, looking forward to you guys getting to AOS one day
I wonder if Shy likes the Orks in the fantasy world just as much as the 40k. Or if there is certain things that is not liked.
I'm sad they don't use more Total War Warhammer stuff to show factions, characters and units
Please I'm begging for gotrek and felix
HOW DID YOU MENTION SLAYERS BUT NOT THE WORST SLAYER OF ALL TIME AND THE DUDE WHO HAS BEEN FOLLOWING HIM KINDA AGAINST HIS WILL FOR 28 YEARS

A Fungus Among Us joke in *checks notes* 2024? Everybody who understood that joke, schedule a colonoscopy.
DK, I love you brother but for the love of Gork and Mork, literally use a different word for literally 😂
It's about time you did the orcs!
Bricky. Chaos dwarfs are iron warriors
1:03:00 D&D trolls are the same in the novels at least.
Holy sheet dk, become a voice actor
