    Grimgor Stories?

    Does anyone know where I can find any fluff related to Grimgor?
    I've got the SoC book, the 4th, 6th and 8th O&G codex, but I'm looking for more fluff on Grimgor (I want to make a Waagh! Grimgor).
    I've just red the Age of Legend Book (all short stories), and they mention Gorbad in there, but apart from that, it seems that O&G aren't in the books alot? (at least none of their Waaghs! are, and I must admit that I haven't red any of the Sigmar novels).

    7th edition armybook describes his Waaagh! and there's an old WD that had the infamous SoC ending.

    Orcs don't make terribly interesting protagonists (BL used to have a moratorium on them as PoV characters and they probably still do) and, imo at least, Grimgor is particularly uninteresting even by greenskin standards. He still seems to me the most egregious example of the regrettable 6th edition trend of introducing new "super-special characters" at the expense of older, often more characterful ones. (I miss Morglum and Gorfang).

    SoC is the only source I know of that would have more information on Grimgor other than those you mention. That said, the SoC background is elusive: a lot of it was online or WD only and the website was taken down long ago. Even so, if you can find a copy of the SoC campaign book there was an army list in there for Grimgor's horde which would give you a starting point.

    O&G do occasionally appear - usually as secondary antagonists - in a few of the BL novels. In particular, Waaagh! Grom featured in Grimblades. There are also some notable greenskins in Wild Kingdoms and Runefang.

    alright Athelassan, thanks!! I'll look into those novels.
    I have the SoC army book, and I'm making that list the starting point of my army (altough, with 8th restrictions, and the 8th codex' choices (aka Blorcs still special)).

    Leogun_91: Do you have any idea wich WD has the SoC ending? I'd love to look that one up!!

    I believe this may be what you are looking for: http://z3.invisionfree.com/Orc__Gobl...howtopic=26684

    Though bear in mind SOC is no longer considered canon. ie. in the current version of the fluff most sources tell us it hasn't happened yet.
