| M | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 7 |
The hunter of the Dakka Lads, Gurnik prefers to lie in wait, hiding under the rubble, until something exciting wanders along for him to shoot at. He has yet to master the concept of silence, however, which invariably tips off his prey. After blowing up two handguns through gross incompetence, Gurnik was demoted to crossboworc. Recently he re-earned his gun despite only having one eye. Hilarity will surely ensue.

| 4 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 7 |
The self-proclaimed master armorer of the Dakka Lads, Shurk is actually fairly skilled in his chosen trade - by orc standards, anyway. He keeps their various crossbows in functional condition despite the lads' best efforts to the contrary.

"Bang!"
| M | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 7 |
A wandering orc shaman who stumbled across the Dakka Ladz known only by his nickname. Bang! delights in conjuring magical bullets and showering his enemies with them from afar. During his first real battle, Bang! proved such a grave disappointment that his Boss pitched him into the infamous Fighting Pits to "man up". Bang! was bludgeoned into a cowering wreck, but as a result is no longer afraid of anything (or at least won't show it, for fear of "gettin' da pits 'gain".

| 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 8 |
The junior Dakka Lads, Fanty and Mingo are twin orc boyz who had a hobby of shooting down birds with makeshift slingshots before Barka drafted them into his gang. Mingo was killed in action by a massive prick with a hammer, leaving his brother heartbroken and vengeful (mostly vengeful).

'Nik's Ladz
In Memoriam
A pack of wandering goblins who fell under Gurnik's command when he ambushed and shot their previous leader. Having finally taken casualties against the bloody Kislevites, they recruited the local goblin ax-murderer. Because that's a good idea. Tragically, they were unable to replace their runtiest member after he fell in battle. When local good-luck goblin Timmy fell to an enemy zombie, there was widespread mourning, until by luck or the smile of Gork and Mork his cousin Jimmy arrived, ready to get revenge. The Loliblender claimed the life of newcomer Rex, the poor bastard. During a rematch with the lolis, Bork was killed by a spinning whirlwind of death. Jimmy, thinking himself utterly swag for surviving, pissed off the Boss too much and was summarily executed (read: eaten).

Shurk's Ladz
In Memoriam
This quartet of scrawny, runty goblins serve as Shurk's assistants, scrounging materials for much-needed crossbow repairs. After Renk was killed in battle and Korbo annoyed Shurk one too many times, a pair of passing goblins were hit on the head, treated to lots of booze, and inducted into the Ladz. Further zombie-related casualties led to the press-ganging of Kek, the renowned goblin drunkard. Sadly, a second chief assistant was killed, leading to more PROMOTIONS. A run-in with Chaos clowns led to the death of a third Chief Assistant, after which Shurk retired the post on the grounds that not even goblins were stupid enough to take it. Despite losing their drinking buddy to stinkin' 'umies, the goblins were finally bolstered by the addition of local greenskin woodworkers Raw and Lund - reduced to merely Lund when Raw tried using a wood rasp as a melee weapon. Then, despite his success at vampire de-legging, Lund was murdered for the bounty on his head. Tragically, the story of Shurk's Ladz came to an end shortly thereafter, in the brutal meat grinder of the Loli Blender.

Da Kannon Fodda

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 1 | 5 |
Pounda Pik, Grabba Gik, Loota Lon
Tired of the cost of recruiting new members for their increasingly-egotistical goblin squads, Boss Dakka decided to scrape the metaphorical bottom of the barrel for Da Kannon Fodda, a group of humble goblin mercenaries with a bright future and not a lot of brains. True to their name, they suffered greatly at the hands of lolis in their first battle, although only one so badly as to be unrecoverable. They made it through the rematch in one piece, but Chok was killed for hoarding loot from da Boss.
