Heroes

Da Big Boss, Barka "Dakka" Ironteef

M	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld
4	3	6	4	4	1	3	1	9

Da Big Boss of the Dakka Lads, Barka is known for his obsession with the art of shooting things with his massive crossbow, including enemies, architecture, and (when bored) his own goblins.

Boss, 110 pts

Experience: 50

Gear: Axe, knife, handgun, crossbow

Special Rules: Leader, Weapon Expert, Nimble, hand injury, Hunter

Gitfinda Gurnik

M	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld
4	4	3	3	4	2	3	1	8

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.

Big 'Un, 65 pts

Experience: 38

Gear: Knife, crossbow, handgun

Special Rules: Weapon "Expert", "Hunter", Nimble, blind in one eye

Advances: Weapon Expert, Hunter, +1W, Nimble, +1BS, +1Ld

Shurk da Shoota

M	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld
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.

Big 'Un, 65 pts

Experience: 40

Gear: Knife, handgun

Special Rules: Weapon Expert, Hunter, Nimble, Trick Shooter

Advances: Weapon Expert, Hunter, Nimble, Trick Shooter, +1BS, +1W

"Bang!"

In Memoriam

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". Bang! came to a tragic end at the hands of the Nurgle Clown, Marie, having finally tasted success in battle for the first time. He died happy.

Advances: Spell: Zzap!, Spell: Clubba, +1W, Spell: Fire of Gork, Spell: Fire of Gork (difficulty -1)

Fanty an' Mingo

In Memoriam

The junior Dakka Lads, Fanty and Mingo were 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). Fortunately, Fanty did not have to suffer long. Sadly, this is because he fell off a building and died.

Advances: +1 S, +1 BS, +1 I, +1 Ld

'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).

Advances: +1A, +1S, +1WS, The Lad's Got Talent!

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.

Advances: The Lad's Got Talent! / +1I, +1S

Da Kannon Fodda

Grabba Gik

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. Lon was sacrificed to Gork and Mork after being infected by Nurgle's Rot. As the last survivor of the group, Gik is afforded a fair bit of fame by his orc companions, and doesn't have to answer to "'ey, git" any more.

Lucky Li, Jobba Jon

When the Kannon Fodda got too good to be cannon fodder, the orcs scraped down past the bottom of the barrel. Unsurprisingly, they found goblins.

Goblins, 20 pts each

Trollolol the Troll

M	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld
6	3	1	5	4	3	1	3	4

After losing many, many goblins in the grueling warfare of Mordheim, the Boss decided to invest in a kind of meatshield that would be a little harder to get rid of. Enter the fearsome Troll, strongest, stupidest, and most notorious of the greenskins. Surely this hulking brute can do a better job keeping da boss from harm than a handful of runty goblins!

Surely.

Troll, upkeep 15gc (or two goblins)

Special Rules: Fear, Stupidity, Regeneration, Vomit Attack

Equipment Stash
