Description[]
Ruglud's Armoured Orcs trace their lineage back to their founder’s strike of genius, never to be repeated, precipitated by a concurrent strike to the head by an oversized piece of masonry, as he was perusing the remains of a battle between Dwarfs and Chaos Dwarfs. Luckily, this happened while he was holding a crossbow and not, say, the bloody remains of a beard. And so Ruglud’s Armoured Orcs were formed, the only known band of Orcs to implement the combination of armour and crossbow. While disliked and distrusted by other Orc tribes, their fighting qualities are grudgingly accepted. Wherever the band travels, it fights for gold and food, and for the chance to strip the enemy of anything worth taking, including any crossbow ammo they can find.
