Ok guys, we're in need of a few more items to get the army-book tip top! To put it bluntly, these things are:

-More illustrations, photo's are great but at the moment what we've got is just not enough! Have a look at your O&G armybook, there is at least one picture on every page, usually two. We have about ten in total at the moment.
-Small items of fluff (a paragraph each, or just even a good one-liner quote to throw about)
-Banners/borders for the edges of the page, very similar to those in the O&G book, but not stealing theirs. Not that hard to do, I dont have time/skills to do myself. Just something simple like them would be such a great help, and impact greatly on the final look of the list, trust me.

We need these things and we need them as soon as possible. Even if its just a small half-hearted thing, its still better than a big blank patch in the list, so please people if you think you may be able to whip something, anything, up at all, then pleeeeease do, it will make my job of prettifying the list that much easier!

Also, a list of Q&A from the list (maybe send out the request to all the playtesters?) to compile for DWQ articles.

Arfa da Grate

I may write a couple of fluff stories.

Chris

EDIT:


What about this?


Dead Orc Tells No Tales

The ship of kap`n Hargash Bigmouth were a parody of a high elven warship. The sails were made of old enemy clothes(some body parts were even on them), the cannons were "borrowed" from the empire ship they had encountered some day the previus week and the rest of the ship had been "improved" and "orcified" by the crew. The particular reason the kapn had entered shore this time were the treasure he had "found" should be buried(the kapn didnt know why, but all the others did it).

The kapn and a dozen orcs and a kabin grot landed on shore and made their way trough the dense jungle, when suddenly the kabin grot shouted "Look, in da trees! A huge scelly fing!" The gobbo ran away towards the ship, and the orcs saw why. A huge monster of a animal appeared from the trees, it had scells instead of fur, three eyes who glowed with a strange red colour, two arms who ended in long iron like claws and a really big belly. It charged towards the pirate orcs, who just had started thinking about what to call the thing. The kapn thought that it was time to make a "Strategic Withdrawthingy", so he backed away so that his ladz could take care of it. The beast snapped the neck of one of the orcs, and swallowed the orc whole. The beast then took down all of the orcs until only the kapn and two of the dechandz were left. The kapn then drawed his gun who he recently had looted from the corpse of a human, he was surpriced when the gun launched three shoots at once. The beast got one shoot in each of his eyes, and died at once.


The kapn decided that they should bury the treasure her, the remaining orcs started digging a hole while the kapn drawed a map to know where the treasure where buried. When the treasure was buried the orcs sayed to the kapn "Where finnished, kapn. Lets go back" The kapn drawed two of his guns, and shoot each of the orcs. When he walked towards the boat he muttered to himself "Now no-one will evva find my treasure." When he returned to the ship he said that the rest of the orcs had fallen into a swamp. He hided the map on a secret place, so no-one could find it. He hided it so well that not even he could get it(he throwed it down the sea).

Thats great Chris, we'll just run it through our fluffinator Krusty to fix up grammar (your native language isnt English is it Chris?). Anyway, split down like that and dotted through the book they will be really good, although just some standalone one paragraph stories would be good too.

Keep the stuff piling in guys!

edit- Wasn't someone drawing up a map at one stage? That would be great if we could get it. Anyone keen?

Arfa da Grate

I would suggest doing smaller fluff peices. Like at max 7 sentences. Look at alot of the ones in the army book.

About 7 sentences... so its like a standalone one-paragraph piece then? :P

Arfa

Can`t you use the borders like those K have on the Sailing the Green Seas document?? Add some of Sumicus`banner pics and we should be allright. Maybe he can even make some unique borders for us??

As for drawings, etc. Can`t we use black & white photos of some of our models if we come up short? With a white background it won`t look to shabby me-thinks.

As for text/short stories ya can do it like in the Generals Compendium. Have a story with only paragraphs from it on every 3-5 page.
Could work..

The banners we're using currently arent too bad, Im after something a bit more. It shoudnt be too hard to whip something quick up if you are a master artist like those we have here, and I really am after a 'picture' banner.

Grayscaled photos do work again, but thats a second choice as illustrations are always better, so we'll get as many illustrations as we can to start with and then fill gaps with photos later. We also have a photo gallery, so we cant use too many pictures as standins for illustrations.

And I am doing small stories split across, but its always good just to have a couple of smaller things to just shove in, like on pg10 of the O&G book.

Arfa da Grate

Are you gonna ask Sumicus if he can make some borders for us or should I do it? Best if ya do it since you probably know better exactly what your looking for.

Thanks.

No, my native language is Norwegian.


What about these?


Small Story 1

The ladz had begun muttering and grumbling about things like "Toilets" and "Fair Treatment", things who arent important at all. "I am going to teach them a lesson today" the Kommodore thought, he shouted "Evrobody on deck! Now!". The orcs and gobbos lined up, they thought that they finnaly would get toilets except from the kommodores. The kommodore gave the command to his gunna-boss, who then ordered the cannons to open fire. About half of the orcs died, the kommodore shouted to the remaining "Now get to clean dat deck! And no more muttering!" The kommodore had settled the muttering forever.


Small Story 2

"Fire!" the gunna-boss shouted to the lazy handgunneres, "And hit dis time!". The battle had raged for hours, and the umies had begun gaining land on Hells Teef. The gunna-boss watched the handunnaz attempt to outclass the human handgunnaz, and he decided that it was time to take a "Taktikul Withdrawl" or running away as the deckhandz called it. Then a great ship suddenly appeared from the sea behind the Empire war-ships, it was Morky Jonez himself! The orcs attacked like mad-men, and the empire warriors could not withstand them. The battle was won, now it was time to drink!


Chris

They're great Chris, I'll just fix them up grammar wise and shove em straight into the book! Oh, and even though your grammar isnt as good as it could be, you still have great tallent with stories!

The ladz had begun grumbling for some time about things like "Toilets" and "Fair Treatment", things that da Kommodore didn’t find important at all. "I'm gunna teach em a lesson today" the Kommodore thought as he assembled everyone on deck. The greenskins pilled in and waited eagerly, believing they would finally get their wishes. The Kommodore gave the command to his gunna-boss for the cannons to open fire, and the deck was instantly covered in thick black smoke. After the smoke settled half the Orcs lay dead. "Now get to cleanin' dat deck!” the Kommodore shouted to those remaining, “And no more muttering!" Needless to say, those left standing obeyed.

"Fire!" gunna-boss Blaznit shouted to the lazy 'andgunnaz, "And hit dis time!". The battle had raged for hours, and the umies had begun gaining ground on the shores of Hells Teef. The gunna-boss watched the handunnaz attempt to outclass their human counterparts, and quick;y decided that the time had come to make a "Taktikul Withdrawl", or running away as the deckhandz called it. Suddenly a great ship appeared on the horizon behind Empire war-ships, it was Morky Jonez himself! With this sight the Orcs were filled with vigour and pushed forwards onces more. "Da Battle will soon be ova now" thought Blaznit to himself, "an' damn right too, I want sum grog!"

A couple more smaller stories would be great too, for space fillers.

Arfa da Grate

Thanks Arfa.


What about this?


Small Story 3


The grog-shop were filled with noice, shouts and a couple of half remembered songs. The furniture were mostly broken or were badly worn, and the orcs were so drunk that some of them would probably dont remember their names w\the next morning. It was here that Ad`mrul Furtlish Black-Teef were planning his next great adventure(which he probably would have forgotten the next day). He and his most "trusted" Kaptains were middle in the planning when a shout appeared from the end of the rom. "Furtlish ya traitor scum! Lets settle da score `ere an nuw!" It was the old Ad`mrul on Fartlish ship, Fartlish replied "Eh... Ad`mrul. We thought you were dead. You falled over da deck." The old orc then lauched himself towards Fartlish with a great axe in his hands, as he runned he shouted "Traitor! It was you who pushed me over deck!" Fartlish tried to draw his gun, bu was to late. The old orc had already chopped of his head, and the Kaptains swored allegiance to the old orc right after. The old orc just shouted "More grog!".

Chris

The fluff-machine is at it again :D
Great stuff Chris! Good thing two of a handfull of norwegians on this forum is so involved in this great project B)

Thanks.

What about these?


Extremely Small Story 1

"Charge Boyz!" the Kaptain shouted, "Lets get `em!" The crew of the ship just standed there silently. The Kaptain then remembered, and shouted "Charge ya filthy land-squigs! Get `em!. The Kaptain thought that this was harder than he thought while he drawed his choppa.


Extremely Small Story 2

"Shiver ma timbers, shiver ma sails." The songs from the nearby grog-shop were itching in the Kommodores brain, he and da ladz were planning the raiding of a little empire village and he didnt want to get disturbed. "But" the kommodore thought "Perhaps did planning may wait some little bits." He said to his ladz "Lets get some beer!"


Chris

Here is something more:


Story 1

"Lissen up ya filthy scum! Dis is da real battle! Many of you will probably die, but as long it isent me wont care!" This was the inspiring speech Kaptain Girgash Biggobbo have to his "loyal" pirate grots before each battle, but this time he really ment that with "da real battle". Because this time they will battle a union between the dwarfs and humans to kill Morky Jonez(or so he proclaimed...). The fleet who Morky Jonez had assmebled was so big that it would have been impossible for Morky Jonez to control it without the help of the Navvigaitas(not to mention the traders who "recruited" many of the Kaptains). The Navvigaita of Girgash were a old night goblin who had fled the moutains of a reason he wouldent tell.

The ships encountered eachother near ToortooGork, the cannons of the empire were the first to open fire, but the crude orc cannons quicly counter attacked. Then the old night goblin navvigaita said "Morky Jonez wants us to get up close... Dont care of the cannons he says..." What the old goblin said made a tension on the goblin crew, so Girgash shooted a bullet right trought the head of a nearby goblin. "Ya heard da ordur! Charge!" Some of the goblins misunderstood, and runned right of the deck. "Wait ya stupid land-squigs! Wait freo de boats to get stucked up into each other first!" The great ship Girgash had "borrowed" from a fat trader got "stuck up" into a nearby High Elven warship. At first the goblins hesitated to attack, but some of the goblins had gained some cannon which Girgash had placed right behind the goblins. The goblins decided that elves werent as scary as the cannons, they shouted "WAAAGH!!!" and bordered the enemy ship.

The numbers of the goblins outclassed the skill of the elves, so the battle was quicly won. Girgash had single handedly slayed tree elves. Girgash thought "Ey, did ship is fine. But it stinks elf all over it! Il ask the ladz to wash it before i attach some parts of it to my ship." Still the battle was far from over, and the old night goblin gave a new message "Morky Jonez wants us to bombard the enemy ships... Now..." This was a job which suited the goblins perfectly, now they didnt need to fight anyone in close combat anymore.

When the battle was won, all the Kaptains were summoned to Morky Jonez. Girgash smelled a trap, so he sended one of his ladz in his place. As expected, Morky Jonez had killed them all and taked their ships. Except Girgash, who was cunning enough to send a replacement in his place. Girgash now fled with his remaining gobbos, taking with him a great deal of loot and the Elven Vessel(which the goblins were busy "washing" to get the lef smell of it).

What do you think?

Chris

PS:Sorry for double posting.

With a grunt of exertion the Whaler sent his 'Arpoon hurtling towards his prey. The crudely carved lump of metal sagged in the salty sea air, its wooden haft straggling behind it. FikGit's scarred face was split by a tusk filled smile as he proudly watched the arc of his weapon as it sailed towards the blurred white form shooting through the murky depths towards them. He nudged one of his mates, who smiled back, his beady eyes following FikGit's 'Arpoon as it sailed through the air. His smile turned to a look of shock and fear as the ship lurched and buckled, planks of barnacled wood splintering all around. FikGit let out a curse as he slivered down the throat of 'Da Git'...

Sorry I aint been producing too much stuff, but real life seems to keep catching up with me...

Krusty

Howabout this?

With a grunt of exertion the Whaler sent his 'Arpoon hurtling towards his prey. The crudely carved lump of metal sagged in the salty sea air, its wooden haft straggling behind it. FikGit's scarred face was split by a tusk filled smile as he proudly watched the arc of his weapon as it sailed towards the blurred white form shooting through the murky depths towards them.

His smile quickly turned to a look of shock and fear as the ‘Arpoon ricocheted off the beast’s thick hide, and the beast launched forwards undaunted. The ship lurched and buckled as beast met ship, planks of barnacled wood splintering all around. FikGit let out a curse as he was launched into the deep blue seas; Moby Git had struck again.


Oh, and we desperately need more illustrations and those borders, far more so than the fluff. Keep the fluff piling in guys, but its the least important of this list at the moment.

Arfa da Grate

I`ve PMed Sumicus about borders and emailed Sickmachine about drawings.
I`ll let you know how it goes as soon as I know anything.

talast,
Red

Here is some more fluff:

Small Story

Valsgar the Brewa-Boss had announced(shouted it in the middle of the town) that he needed some volunteers to test his new brew(in addition to the "volunteers" he already have...). When the day he said he would test it was there, and assortment of greenskins outside the hut were Valsgar worked. The greenskins were either out of money to buy grog or suicidal lunatics who were tired of life. He gave each of them their own mug(or at least it looked like mugs) with a portion of his secret new "recipa". About half of the greenskins exploded in great green blasts, but the remaining seemed to have grown larger and stronger. "Dis will sell well." Valsgar thought for himself "I just need ta shut may trap about da exploding bit." Then he laughed.

What do you think about it?

Chris

Do you need any more fluff, Arfa? If yes what should i write about?

Chris

EDIT:

Here is a some stories:

As the Kabin Grotz were sitting on the deck doing practically nothing except the normal bottle of bear, the occasional fight and the normal torturing of little fishes, the alarm was raised. Up from the depths a great beast arrived, it was so big that the ship looked like a little rowboat aside the Red Hulk. It had a peculiar color on its scales, they were white. All in all it looked like a twisted whale, but far more large. The Kabin Grotz only managed to scream in about five seconds, before the ship were swallowed whole. Moby Git had struck again.


The old grizzled Whaler Huzngit BigScar were telling stories in "Da Bickering Gobbo" the most famous Grog-Shop on this part of this part ogf Hogs Port. He told fascinating storys of monsters he (proclaimed) he had slain. One of his most fascinating tales was how he got the great scar who leapt all over his body. "Well, lissen `ere. And i will tell ya." He began "It twas about the sixt or seventh day on sea, me an` a couple of other whalers where out and `unting. First we noted `omething really strange, all da noise had dissapeared completely. Then bubbles cam under our ships, and the `ugest beast i ever has seen in my entire life came up right before us! It was so big that even a ship were little in front of it! And it was purely white! Me and da rest had never seen such a creature ever, and dat says somefing." Now the greenskins were completely silent, they didnt even drink, or not much atleast. "It ate two of my mates in a one big swallow, de rest uv us fired our `Arpoons against it. But the beast didnt even shrug, ma rowing gobbo fled in panic, but i dragged `im up again. The great beast then attacked us, but we are orcs, an` nevva flee. What we tried to do was a "Taktikul Withdrawl" as da `umies do. But the beast locked its great jaw all `round us. But i swimmed out before the mouth closed." the greenskins were now completely amazed of the tale "Or `least a part uv me." he said while he looked at his scar and wooden leg and hook. "Dat was Moby Git `imself i swear." he said while he left the Grog-Shop.

@Arfa: I`ve emailed you a new pic from Sickmachine, he`ll make some more as well. I`ve received an answer from Sum as well and he`ll make a draft of a border for us. Hope I`ll get it before the end of the week, or when do you need besides yesterday??

Btw, great stuff as usual Chris :D

talast,
Red

The old grizzled Whaler Huzngit BigScar were telling stories in "Da Bickering Gobbo" the most famous Grog-Shop on the south side of Hogs Port. He told fascinating stories of monsters he proclaimed to have slain. One of his most fascinating tales was about how he acquired the great scar that ran the length of his body, from brow to knee. "Well, lissen 'ere, An' I will tell yers." He began, taking a deep swig from his beaten tankard. "It twas 'bout the sixt or seventh day at sea, me an' a couple of da boyz where out 'unting. First we noticed summin' real strange; da sea 'ad turned white! Before we new it da 'ugest beast yers ever seen came up right infront of us! It was so big that the whole wide world went dark for a secund! Me and da rest of da ladz 'ad never seen such a squiggly beast so mean lookin', and dats sayin' summin'." Now the greenskins were completely silent, beady eyes watching the bearded Whaler intently. "It ate most of me mates an' 'alf da ship in one big bite! da rest of us chucked our 'Arpoons at it, but the beast didn't even notice. Me and wot wuz left of da ladz cud do nothin' as it ate the rest of da ship, and us too! But, bein' as clever as I am, I managed to grab hold o' some driftwood and float mesef back ter dry land!" The Orcs gathered around still watched intently, thick strands of drool creeping slowly from the corners of some of their mouths. "Dat was Da Git dat was, I swears it!" Grunted the Whaler, his eyes glazing over as he stared into the bottom of his tankard...

How about this?

Krusty

Thanks a heap guys, did you tell Sumicus what we were looking for in the borders (i.e, almost identical to those used in the O&G book, vertical and horizontal, and with a piratey theme). Oh, and if you could ask sickmachine to draw a pic of an Orc ship as well, we only have one at the moment, and its hidden in the background of Snotstaff's mate's pic!

And a message to the fluff boyz: you do great stuff. You always do great stuff. Stop asking 'if its alright' or 'should I write more', just do it! Its driving me crazy! :lol:

Seriously, its all good stuff, so keep it coming. The more we have the more we can choose from, and the fuller the list and the mag become, so Im happy on both boards, and your work gets maximum publicity.

Arfa da Grate

Well he (sumicus) pretty much conlcuded by himself on what we needed so that part was easy (since it sounded good enough for me). He also talked about that he could make a ship that was in the background, like "behind" some text. So I`ll ask him if he can make that as well. I`ll also ask him when he can have it all finished.

As for Sickmachine I`ll bring the ship reguest asap to him.

talast,
Red

Heres some more fluff:

Lissen up now. You shall get a new ship ta me so dat i may call meself "Kommodor", ya get it?" the Kaptain told his most trusted frist mate, Jurk Badteef. "Ay, Kap`n. Give me da muney and i`l give you a ship." "Guud." The Kaptain replied. Later that da Jurk walked toward the great harbor of Hog`s Port, looking for a trader. "A dere iz une." Jurk thought "`e doesnt got filth all over `imself an` have lots o gold to." "What may i do for you?" the goblin asked when Jurk walked towards him, "Ma Kap`n needs a ship. Do you ya have one?" Jurh said to the goblin. "Oh yes, indeed. Just got one imported from Tilea." "Show me it." Jurk replied. The Trader led Jurk to a human galley with two masts. "Here it is, and the payment?" "`ere." Jurk said and gave most of the gold the Kaptain had given him. "Good." the goblin said and took the money into his pocket.

Chris

Heres some more fluff:

The harbors in Tilea are a meeting place for humans all over the world, everywhere as far as Araby, Ind and even Cathay. Most of the people were merchants, explorers or ambassadors. The ships in the harbor were from all different countries(the only nations who didnt have were the undead realms, Naggaroth and the twisted followers of chaos). But one of the ships were different from all the others in many ways. The ship were full of dirt, except were the Captain and his quests and first mates resided. It had about five or six masts, some who eve sticked out from the rear. The last, and to the young captain who were assigned to guard the harbor anger, were crewed by greenskins. The men who followed the captain surounded the ship under the captains order. "You, greenskins!" the captain shouted to the crew of the ship "Get outa here! Or else we will use our "boomstick" on you!" As the captain shouted that, he discovered that some of the orcs carried with the handguns, and the ship had half a dozen cannons. Then a fat little goblin came down, accompanied by a dozen grizzled goblin guards. "We are here in peacefull errand, Captain" the goblin said to the young captain. "We dont want you or your kind any harm." "Peacefull errand!?" the captain shouted at the goblin "You and your kind are never in peacefull errand!" The goblin then said to the captain "If you mistakes us from our cousins in this land, you are wrong. We are the Orcs and Goblins of Hells Teef, or Pirate Orcs." "Ha!" the captain spat in the face of the goblin. But then a old general arrived and asked the captain "Any prblems, captain?" "Yes, sir." the captain replied to the general "These greenskins wants me to beleive that they are here in peacefull errand, sir." the general then looked at the ship and the goblin. He asked the goblin "Password?" "Tilea, Estalia, Marienburg and Hogs Port." the goblin replied to the general. "Good," the general said "Let them go, captain." "What!?" the captain said "These are vile greenskins!?" "Seems that you have much to learn, captain." the general said "This goblin is one of the Traders of Hells Teef, they are the ones who supply us with `Squig Meat`, whale meat, different things who are very rare from monsters of different origin, different types of rare grog and many other things to." the young captain looked amazed, but gave the order to the men to let the goblins(and some of the orcs) go into the city.

Chris

Could someone write up some piratey fluiff for the Wyvern? It needs to be in the book, but Im not after much, just a (very) small piece. Im thinking about 3-4 sentances is all we need. Thanks guys!

edit - dont worry, Ive done it myself now, so no problems there. Keep the other stuff piling in though guys! :D

Arfa da Grate

Ok, Im after another fluff piece, about the same size as the 'Grog Shop', 'andgunnaz' and the first 'whaler' one. The others are great and will be put in, but Ive got a specific space that needs filling. If possible Id like it to have something to do with either 'arpoon chukkas, long gunz or pump boats, as that is the page it is going.

Cheers guys, I know I can rely on you!

Arfa da Grate

Heres even more fluff:


"Fyrgat, ya stoopid git! I`l take `u duwn!" And then another brwal in the local Grog shop started. But this time it was something special about the battle, it was a reason for it. Fyrgat had tricked Zumbad(who proclams himself to have sailed all da 3 seas), and when Fyrgat says that it is nne seas(he thinks) Zumbad attacks him. Then Fyrgat`s mate attacks Zumbad, and Zumad`s mate attacks the mate of Fyrgat(and so on). But then a high voice came from the end of the door "Grog nuw!" it was one of the Whalers, all the fighting stopped, andthey asked the whaler to tell a story "Well, ya land-squigs. It was a day when me and some mates where at sea..."


Chris

Here:


The Gunna-boss Fuzgit Smart-`ead were working in his iron hut again, he had some weird lights who didnt need flame who lighted up the room, it had rare metal works and guns all over it. It even had a large cannon with two holes instead of one, and a handgun who fired damn fast. Now he was working on another of his "Inventshuuns", a boat who goed purely on squig meat and a couple of onster skins, a "inventshuun" he had promised the whaler, Jorn RedTeef. But he was disturbed by a messenga` grot, the grot said "My Kap`n needs a couple of new chukkas. He pay well." And the gobbo lifted up a heavy ba from his pocket, "Hmm, i needz mure muneyz to ma machines." Fuzgit thought. "Alright, i`l ave them u tumorow. Later that day the Ad`mrul himself came to get the chukkas(accompanied by a dozen gobbos who should carry them), when he came into Fuzgits hut four chukkas were ready on the floor. One of them were capable of firing two chukkas at once, while the other three were normal chukkas but were capable of firing more heavy harpoons. "Da muney." Fuzgit said from the corner, "`ere." The ad`mrul said and gave the bag to Fuzgit. The gobbos carried out the machines and the Ad`mrul followed, when Fuzgit looked in the bge saw, STONES! He had been cheated! He runed out of his hut with his good old choppa in his left hand and with his good new handgun in hs right. "I`l `ave u!" He shouted as he shoot the Ad`mrul from behind, his head pierced immedeatel. He chopped of the head, and ordered the goblins to return with the chukkas in his "Labratorry", "Dont u mess with da gunna-bosses any more!" he shouted to the corpse of the Ad`mrul as he walked back to his hut.

Was it something like that you wanted, or should i write another story?

Chris

Mm, something with a twist at the end or something would go well, but thats still not bad.

Arfa da Grate

Added a little twist in the end.

Chris

I'm currently working on the DWQ only fluff piece for Zorg. Anyone know what the deadline is?

Krusty

More fluff:

The hut of the goblin trader were full of gold and fake jevelry to impress visitors. This hut actually had different rooms, one to keep his stash, another to keep his stash, a room to keep his worthless stash and a third were the trader slept ate and drinked(much). The "quests" he had with him were here to borrow some money "How much?" the goblin asked "`bout two hundred gold trinkets." one of the orcs said "Here." the trader said while he snapped his finger, immedietaly agoblin camed from one of the rooms and gave a bag to the orcs. Two weeks later the trader(as always accompanied by his bodyguard) walked towards the grog-shop were the orcs who borrowed him money resided most of the time(when the looted and plundered they were not there). He snapped with his fingers and one of his bodyguards opened the door. "Where`s my money!?" the goblin shouted. "Huh?" one of the orcs who had borrowed money from him asked "I cant remember such a ting..." Of course the orc had "forgot" it, so the bodyguards of the goblin walked towards them, with their swords drawed. The orcs quickly defeated the goblins. But the goblin snapped his fingers once more, and human merceneries came from the end of the doors, armed to the teeth with swords and pistols. "What da..." the orcs begun, "These are duellists from Tilea, and this is my ogre companion." as he said that a ogre came in the door, he had a handgun in each of his arms, had a long sword in his belt and had a wooden leg and a eye-patch. "What should i do with them?" the ogre asked the goblin, "See if they have any moneys on them." the ogre lifted each of the orcs and make them up-side down. From each of the orcs a lot of golden trinkets falled, the goblin bodyguard collected them and counted them. "326 trinkets, boss" they said. The goblin looked at some of his dead bodyguard members, "That may compensate the loss..." He then walked out the door his bodyguards and merceneries followed him, the ogre stayed a little behind and gave an advice to the badly beaten orcs "You shouldnt mess with the traders." then he followed the goblin.

Chris

Arfa da Grate

So when do you need the frontpage winner? What I`m trying to say is when do I have to stop the poll?

Just so I know before I post the poll ya know.

The cover is actually the last thing Im doing, so there's no rush (put the poll up for a week). The contents and cover are the last things to do, despite being first in the book, as it gives me a chance to see what is on what page and also wait for the best possible option for the cover picture.

OH, just thought of a MASSIVE thing we need ASAP: Snotstaff's section of the book! -_-.

Basically I was getting him to collect as many articles and stuff for the 'coloured' section of the book, have a look at the picture section of your O&G book to see what Im after. If someone could please PM the artists of the pics and get them to give a quick overview of how they did each individual conversions it would be great, and compiling them would be even better. This is the one section of the book I wasnt planning on doing myself, but looks like I'll have to anyway <_<.

Anyway, I appreciate the help In advance!

And heres some I made earlier... :rolleyes:

Da Black Spot

‘Da Black Spot’ is something used by the Pirate Orcs on a daily basis. It is the death warrant of the person who finds it lying on their bed, or stuck to their room’s door. How it gets there is a mystery, but it usually rears its head on the eve of a battle, or at the beginning of a great ship voyage. Not many that are confronted by ‘Da Black Spot’ survive the next day…

Kap’n Flunk da Skwarky Squigott

Kap’n Flunk, the pet name given to this Skwarky Squigott by its first ‘owner’, is the embodiment of Pirate Orciness. When it is not perched on the shoulder of its current ‘owner’ hurling abuse at the enemy, the age old Squigott can be found flying in erratic circles overhead, scouting out the positions of the enemy.

Warding Skull

It was said that ‘Da Guvna’, a Kap’n that once nearly took Hell’s Teef for himself, was protected by Gork (or possibly Mork). He ended up dead at the hands of Morky Jonez, who didn’t take kindly to ‘Da Guvna’s’ affront on his leadership. His head was chopped off and hoisted up onto on of ‘Da Red Hulk’s’ many masts. One night it went missing, stolen for its supposed protective properties. Its changed hands a few times since then mind…

Da Armour Cleaver

This huge chunk of gore streaked metal is said to glow bright green with Waaagh! Power whenever an Orc worthy of wielding it comes near. It is also said that when it wants to, it can split apart any armour, and subsequently the person inside…


I'll try and get the rest done today.

Krusty

Overloaded pistols been done, check the fluff bin.

Krusty

Ok, cheers crusty.

Just need fluff for the following now:

Gawahs Underducated Knuckles

Morky da Cleva's Overeducated Knuckles

and some newer (and shorter) fluff for 'Da Boomstick', I dont think the current one fits, and it is rather long also.

Thanks guys, and dont forget I still really need the P&H articles/comments!
