Editing Gorbad Ironclaw (section)

===Rise to Power===
Gorbad first appeared as a blip on the radar when he started carving out his own Orc empire in the [[Badlands]], as he conquered tribe after tribe of other Orcs with notable speed. This fast growth was primarily attributed to Gorbad's way of conquering rival orc tribes, in which he would leave most of the tribe alive but would very messily and brutally kill the Orc in charge to intimidate the rest into joining his forces. Since orcs respect strength, watching a Warboss rip your leader's spine out Predator style was usually enough to convince most orcs to join his Waaagh. Leading his tribe from his fortress of Iron Rock, Gorbads aggressive expansion meant that he very quickly became the leader of the primary ruling power in the Badlands, with only the Broken Tooth tribe rivalling Gorbad's in size and power. This little orchish rivalry didn't last as Gorbad lead his Waaagh against the Broken Tooth tribe to wipe them out, which he brought about by digging a tunnel underneath the Broken Tooth's stronghold of Black Crag and unleashing a Squig herd into the Warboss' chamber. After seeing the green and red paste that was their former leader, the Broken Tooth tribe swore allegiance to Gorbad and joined his Waaagh.

Gorbad then took his massive Waaagh and started raiding the [[Dwarfs (Warhammer Fantasy)|Dwarf's]] holds and outposts, and then he started moving further into Dwarfen territory. He razed every outpost and hold he encountered, killing all the dwarfs inside and stealing every thing in the forges, treasuries and armories, which attracted more orc tribes to his banner and further swelling his Waaagh's numbers and making the dwarfs more and more nervous. The Dwarfs eventually realised that a single hold wouldn't be strong enough to fight off Gorbad's Waaagh, so they wrote in their [[Book of Grudges|Big Book]] and simply closed their hold's doors and waited until Gorbad and his horde passed by. Gorbad was very upset that noone wanted to fight him, so he left to find someone who would.
