History

[WIP]  

Administration

The Horde of the Great Warchief is a very simple organization, which follows the basic laws and traditions of Orcs. The Great Warchief can convene his horde under certain conditions:
  • It has to be in a night with a new moon or a red moon
  • The Great Warchief may not be involved in any conflicts with orcs from other tribes
  • The goal or purpose of the convocation is the appeasing of the orc gods
  • The Warchief has to make a great sacrifice for Grummsch
During the assembly of the horde, the armies of different clans are not allowed to get into quarrels or conflicts and have to obey the command of the Great Warchief.
Currently, all six orc tribes participate in the Horde of the Great Warchief, namely:

The Great Warchief

The Great Warchief is the highest general of all orc tribes during the assembly of the horde. He can command armies and their generals to fulfill the purpose of the horde. During an assembly of the horde, the Great Warchief is inviolable by other orcs and goblinoids. However, this rule is known to be broken very frequently and therefore a high punishment is assigned to breaking this rule. Further, the Great Warchief has access to most financial instruments of various tribes and is allowed to use them to purchase mercenaries or weapons if necessary.
The position of the Great Warchief is always claimed by an Orc or orc-kin. It can not be inherited or gifted to another orc, however, different orcs can compete with each other over the position. The origin of the Great Warchief does not depend on any tribe or location. The role of the Great Warchief can be used in negotiations between different tribes. If the Great Warchief is killed by an orc, this orc automatically claims the position of the Great Warchief if the death occurred during a duel. If the Great Warchief dies during a battle, the leader of the Warchief's tribe is allowed to decide on his successor.
