Tale of OG Gamers - Da Paffindas

[roland murat]

The fluff

Field Marshull Ramma is a well known warboss in the Ratae sector, having united a number of warring tribes to launch a brutal waaggh on whoever is in the wrong place at the wrong time. Then all went quiet.

Unknown to the Imperium Ramma and a small group of followers got caught in a freak warpstorm and were deposited on a planet very different to those they were used to.

Ramma quickly started conquering the orcs he found there, forcing the local primitives to do his bidding. Now a new waagh marches led by a small force known as Da Paffindas which operates as the vanguard of the army.

Ok in a slight change to the advertised program this month sees 3 chariots enter the fray.

<Insert>

This leaves me with a ton of stuff to do to get a 600 legal army ready to roll but such is life.

If there is one thing the leader of a galaxy wide waaaaaaaaaaaaaagh has to learn is that some jobs need to be done by underlings - else da big stuff wun neva get dun wud it? With this in mind Orc Big Boss Mashbone was sent to spread the influence of his master.

The first target was a  small Imperial settlement - how hard could that be? Enter a gunline backed by a wizard and the orc army was battered off the field with just two chariots able to reach the enemy lines. Searching desperatly for a foe that would stand and a fight a goblin force was soon spotted.

Mashbone launched a full bloodied assault only to see asmall unit of spider riders charge a chariot, beat it in combat (causing it to flee) and the rout another chariot. Despite this set back and much hilarity from 3 fanatics victory was eventually one. Not a terrible start for the boyz but some magic is essential for the next round of battles.

...and so, with victory over the local Goblins, Mashbone was able to capture a shaman and 'puswade' him to join Da Paffindas. The Night Goblin contingent also increased in size.

Word of the victory was quick to reach the Field Marshull - but so was that of defeat at the hands of da 'umies. The defeat unsettled him. 'What we needz is sum lobbas ta smash da defense and crump um up good'

The army expansion continued while its general plotted. Rumour of a small island full of wealth and good fights was starting to circulate and cosideration had to be given to expanded the army quicker than planned to launch an invasion. Only time would tell.

[roland murat]

While pondering a full scale invasion of the Black Isle Ramma learnt that another tribe of Greenskins was in territory. At least as far as Ramma was concerned.

A hunting party had found a small camp belonging to a nomadic tribe of orcs and goblins. Realising that a mounted force would greatly aid his mobilty and scouting ability the Field Marshul sent his army into battle.

The leading elements caught the other tribe on the hop and Mashbone's ladz saw an opening. Yelling waaagh as loud as they could the orc unit surged up the middle and crashed into the enemy warboss and his retinue of elite (well sort of) boar boyz. The fight ebbed and flowed before the boar boyz routed.

With the warboss dead the other elements of the army were swiftly battered into submission for a handful of casulties. Ramma is on da march.
