Faction Fluff

Grutzmok and Krugnof wondered through the halls of the asteroid. “Boss Rukazza, wantz da shootas on dis fing finished zoggin quickly. Apparently Da Kaptain has been given im a right earful…..”

Grutznok looked at Krugnof thoughtfully “Youse ever seen da Kaptain”

Krugnof frowned “Nah…he’s kunnn inhe?. So he keeps his identity a big ole secret”

“Still, bit odd init?” asked the Mekboy.

Krugnof shrugged, “He’s da Kaptain,” as if this explained it. In truth he was a little confused at their overall leader's reluctance to show himself. Normally Orks got louder and more showy the further up the pecking order they went. How else would you know who was in charge? Still, no could argue with the fact that da Kaptain had apparently gained the respect and obedience of even the most truculent ork bosses. Mainly because any of the ork bosses who were too truculent had disappeared.

“Anyways,” said Krugnof, wanting to change the subject from an area that required an uncomfortable amount of thinking, “Rukazza says youse needs to show me da bog gunz to make sure der all working proper”

Grutznok led the way pausing only to turn the handles on several crudely designed airlocks. It never bothered the mekboy how he knew to design a fully functioning ventilation system inside an asteroid at a moments notice from spare parts from his bitz box. It was in his blood.

Grutznok opened up another airlock and revealed to Krugnof the vastness of space. Grutznok was pleased that the nob took a double take when he saw he was stading on the surface of the asteroid with nothing but stars above. And another douyble take when he realised he wasn’t dead.

“Thatz a neat trick,” grinned Krugnof “youse get da weird boyz to help youse wiv dat one”

“Nah,” said Grutznock “I just built myself one of dem force field thingies. Sprugg powerz it” said the mek boy indicating his long suffering gretchin assistant who was desperately running on the inside of a large treadmill.

The mekboy pointed out the various gun batteries dotted along the surface of the asteroid. “Now dem ones have got spechul targeting systems”

“For extra dakka?” said Krugnof.

“Nah,” said Grutznock “But more of da dakka actually hits wotz youse shootin at.”

Krugnof looked impressed at this technical ingenuity.

“And deys are rockits but big” said Grutznock “And deys got some serious dakka, but we’se a bit short on ammo so tell Rukazza to get some of da boys to raid another humie ship”

Krugnof gave a wide grin and said “I’ll volunteer myself!”

Grutznock pointed out a huge battery of cannons, plasma blast guns, orbital lances, rockit launchers and zapp cannons a seeming mixture of human and ork weapons crudely strapped together with what looked like hundred of meters of metal cabling.

“Dat lookz like da muthaload!” breathed Krugnof.

“We intercepted some humie chatter on da talkie box. Dez been talkin aboutz some star swordz for months now” said Grutznock “I’se said to da uver mekboyz, I said I betz its dem weaponz that have been shootin downz our shipz and generally making a nuisance of demselves. So we gotz togever and built ourselves our own big dakka space gunz” Grutznock glanced over to where Krugnof was looking at the weapons battery in awe. “Wantz to know wot we call it?”

Krugnof nodded not taking his eyes off the guns.

Grutznock drew himself up proudly, “Da Star Choppa!”


Just as any Ork will tell you that just as ‘green is best’ and ‘red wunz go faster’ so it is in their nature to seek out a good fight. And what better fight is there than one where you can choose a wide variety of enemies. At the sight of eldar and tau ships coming into the system, Ork pirates readied themselves for a scrap of monumental proportions. Orks are not amongst the most sophisticated creatures in the galaxy but they know a turf war brewing when they see one and Aurora Prime is a classic turf war. For the last month the pirate captains hidden out in the asteroid fields of the Aurora system have been putting aside their differences (well mostly) and cobbling together a pirate fleet to launch their own assault against the planet.

Led by a mysterious and elusive figure that few have seen and going only by the name ‘Da Kaptain’ the Orks have acted with surprising ‘kunnin’. They have secretly landed on and ’infested’ the massive asteroid 45/67XXBehemoth. From this base they are in a perfect position, not only to assault Aurora Prime, but also to blast parts off and send them hurtling towards unfortunate planet.

At the same time Ork pirates have long coveted Aurora Secondus. The Orks have suspected that the amount of Imperial vessels that stop off there means there is more than a little loot to be had. Now the battle that rages beneath the surface of the planet has left Aurora Secondus all but undefended from outside threats. The planet is about to reap a whirlwind of brutal unreasoning green violence.

If mynameisgrax makes his presence known and gets in touch with Process, it looks like there's an overwhelming tide of Greenskinz ready to fight under his banner!

Otherwise, someone else will have to step up, so get everyone to check out this thread!
