Ogor Mawtribes

Grand Alliance Destruction Ogor Mawtribes

Some lards being dudes.

Lore Tactics General Tactics

Rebranded as “Ogors”, everyone’s favorite balding overeating wrestlers still exist in the Mortal Realms. They are now collectively known as the Mawtribes and survive as nomadic warrior clans, traveling from realm to realm wrecking shit and eating the finest cuisine.

Within the Mawtribes exists two distinct subcultures; the Gutbusters, who are most like there traditional depiction, and the Beastclaw Raiders, comprised of the ogors who ride on beasts and had a wintery aesthetic, who somehow became cursed to produce an infinite snowstorm where ever they go. Naturally, the Mawtribes fall under the Destruction Grand Alliance and have begun to worship Gorkamorka as “The Great Beast that Consumes the World” or the “Gulping God”, literally their justification for eating everything in sight. The BCR meanwhile revere the Everwinter as an aspect of their god, focusing more on ice, snow, and hunting rather than simple consumption.

Every Mawtribe moves and conducts raids according to the Mawpath, a cyclical pattern that is determined by the tribe’s Butchers and leaves massive bite-like trails across the realms.

History

Age of Myth

Given that Ogors don’t really write down their history (save for crude cave-man like glyphs and paintings), most of their past is shrouded in a haze of exaggeration and grandiose creations myths. For example, according to Firebellies, Aqshy was created by the fiery burp of Gorkamorka after he ate a massive star. Thankfully other races have kept track of their origins, making this section possible.

Ogors, much like the Greenskins, have always existed in the Mortal Realms, living in primitive tribal cultures. When Sigmar beat the snot out of Gorkamorka, he earned the green god’s loyalty and tasked him with slaying the various warped monsters and Godbeasts of the Realms (partially to keep him and his followers out of trouble). The Ogors, though miffed they couldn’t eat humie, stuntie, or knife-ear meat, gladly followed the Gulping God in his monstrous crusade. One such crusading target where the Sky Titans of Ghyran. These colossal beings lived in floating gun fortresses above the Scabrous Sprawl and we’re famed for their usage of black powder weaponry. Gorkamorka tore into the forts with ease, and the Ogors scavenged the rubble to create the first Ironblasters and Leadbelchers. Along their rampage, they came across the weedy Gnoblars of Chamon who approached the Ogors with a deal; in exchange for protection from the bully like Orruks and Grots, the Gnoblars would serve the Ogors as a servant caste. The Ogors naturally agreed and soon colonies of Gnoblars were commonplace amongst the original Mawtribes.

Mawtribes

Fitting the bigger scale of the setting, each one is led by an Overtyrant who has numerous other Tyrants as vassals leading smaller tribes called warglutts. They best way to think of the Mawtribes is like a fleet of ships. The Overtyrant is the admiral, controlling the whole thing, while each ship has a Tyrant as the captain, and a Slaughtermaster as the navigator.

• Meatfist: The most powerful Mawtribe around, who stain their right arm in blood to imitate their founder Grawl Meatfist. They are known for being verbose braggarts who flaunt their power nonstop. Currently led by the Overtyrant Globb Glittermaw, a Gargant-sized Ogor who is essentially the second coming of Greasus Goldtooth, being the unusually intelligent leader who teaches his people the value of material wealth. A noteworthy warglutt of the Meatfist Mawtribe would be the Tarkan Warglutt. Native to the region of Hallost in Shyish, this roaming band of Gutbusters premiered in the Feast of Bones box set as the first enemies of the Ossiarch Bonereapers. Their Tyrant is Kagruk Kin-eater, a brash and youthful warlord who actually survived his encounter with Nagash’s pet project and swore vengeance upon the Bonereapers.

• Bloodgullet: A Mawtribe from Aqshy who are obsessed with drinking blood, to the point where they despise Firebellies as they believe all meat should be eaten raw. Maybe there's some truth to this obsession, as they have the most powerful Butchers and Slaughtermasters. They don't clean up any bloodstains on their bodies, giving them a disgusting appearance that usually causes them to be attacked on sight (which they don't mind, since it lets the food come to them). Often ally with Khorne for obvious reasons, though curiously one of their Slaughtermasters is apart of Khorgos Khul’s inner circle, despite being a wizard. And we all know how Khorne feels about them...

• Underguts: Ogors from Ulgu who dwell in underground caverns, and as such often ally with the Gloomspite Gitz. They learned to reverse-engineer Duardin gunpowder technology, so they've got the most Leadbelchers and Ironblasters. They feed on the poisonous flora and fauna of Ulgu’s caves, resulting in their skin taking on a sickly pale glow. Led by the Overtyrant Grumlog Blisterhands, they prefer to start their invasions with absurd amounts of Ironblaster and Leadbelcher gunfire, then sending in their foot soldiers to clobber any survivors. Their gnoblars have also learned to created what are basically crude grenades by shoving tiny powder kegs full of scrap and shrapnel.

Beastclaw Raiders

Because they were their own faction back in the early days of the game, they have their own page here. Rest assured, however, they are indeed apart of the same faction.
