They raid ceaselessly, carrying war and barbarism to every corner of the Warhammer world. ‘Time and again, Ore & Goblin armies arise without warning, their direction and intent utterly fickle and unpredictable. To better understand these destructive green hordes, one must first consider the ereatures that make up their component parts. ORCS (Ores vary in size, burall pack a great deal of muscle, bone and few brains into a green, haieless body as tall a5 2 man, thu substantially broader: They have thick skulls, elongated jaws and tusk-fike teeth. An Ore’s protruding brow partially conceals his glowering eyes, which blaze red when he is angry ~ most ofthe time, in fact. Thee tough green hides vary in shade depending om age or even climate. They are brutes and loutsof the first degre, insensitive to pain (and higher thought). Orcs single-mindedly pursue what they want, and what Ores want most isto fight. If there are no enemies immediately to hand, the overly belligerent Ores will edly scrap amongst themselves. In battle, Ores form units called mobs, which are led by the biggest of their kind, the Bosses. The right to lead an Ore mob is earned by defeating the current Boss in challenge: ‘Such violent confrontations are both plentiful and important in Ore society (fit can be termed as such). Might equals right for greenskins and infighting is how Orcs ensure that their leaders are the largest and most ferocious of their mob, Afterall, bigger is always better and being able to hash an ‘opponent's headin spectacularly isa clear sign of leadership amongst such brutal kind, This is true forall Ores, including the Savage Ores, primitive throwbacks {0 more primeval days, and the Black Orcs, the largest and most formidable ofall the Orcish races ‘The human solders lay in eops, spears ond halberd ting upward ike Groen bones, their Black ond elon uniforms stained with oo much crimson, Nagbad sated on armoured warrior aside wih is re while Tsk, his wor Boor, gnawed on the comps of is hose Te gory remains of nights tre the fl, lan by the Warboss and his boyz Te reat _gote lay aad, he symbol of Averland emblazoned on its surface. “Move it lade!’ he bellowed.

Their skin isa brighter shade of green than an Orc and they have large noses, wickedly pointed teeth and glinting, beady eyes. Goblins are by far the more snealcy and intelligent of the two races, While Orcs communicate sparingly, largely using, scowls and grunts, Goblins are garrulous with iritating high-pitched voices. Unlike most Ores, Goblins are prone to acts of extreme cowardice. However, when the oxds are heavily stacked in their favour, Goblins greatly enjoy bullying and cruelty and they can be every bit as agressive as their larger kin, Vicious and mean-spirited, Goblins prefer to attack from behind or assil already weakened foes. Goblins adapt to the lands they live in, and this produces a variety of cultural differences, from the spider-worshipping Goblins ofthe deep forests to the nomadic, fur clad Wolf Riders of the plains. Despite their differences, they are all ae the same breed. There are afew distinct subspecies of Goblins although only one is tolerated by other Ores and Goblins = the Night Goblins, So long have they dwelt inthe tunnels beneath the Worlds Edge Mountains tht these Goblins have developed into @ unique, sun-hating species, specially prone to madness and cowardice A RAUCOUS MIX Ores and Goblins often amass into hodgepodge armies that that include a slew of other violent-minded creatures, Snotlings, the most dinsinutive greenskins, gnther in great numbers. Trolls are often lured into the army by tossing a few extra carcasses (or particularly slow Snotlings) their way, while Giants are attracted by the promise of loot and fighting. Greenskin armies are bewilderingly varied and ‘wholly unpredictable, but the one surety is that nowhere is safe from their atacks for long, pitted are glowed deep redin approval With the Greatscord sin, che ‘Orc’ ttentions tured othe gat, which Ioomedobsad ike the fae of .¢mountoin.
