You forgot to mention that Skarsnik knows very well that if the Skaven ever send an army back to the upper levels, it won't be led by a two-bit Warlord, but by Queek Headtaker himself, and everyone in Karak Eight Peaks knows to fear that insane rat. As such he is happy with the current status quo. He is famous enough that he gets Orcs and Goblins flooding into his army, and he has set up a command chain so well organized for Greenskins that he can happily go on Squig hunts and still his territory in Karak Eight Peaks will remain relatively safe. Of course the Dwarfs and the Skaven aren't happy with the current status quo. Which is why the Dwarfs still send expeditions to assist Belegar and reclaim more parts of the Karak, while the Skaven constantly disrupt any Goblin and Dwarf movements in the upper levels.
@morgant.dulaman8733 Жыл бұрын
I suspect what actually happened regarding the Dwarf Language bit is that Skarsnik just picked up on whatever sounds a dwarf made to another dwarf that caused the other dwarf to get mad, said the same to another, and either guessed what it meant or had it explained to him later, and being a goblin, happily...exaggerated just a bit to make himself sound more impressive to the writer. This might also explain some of the more outlandish ways he got out of some tight pickles (ex. jumping into a creak known to empty out through the mountain, had a scout with him that led the escaped and led the wolf riders to the place, etc.).

Considering that Skarsnik himself narrated this biography, is it entirely beyond the realms of possibility that he lied about learning the entirety of the dwarven language? Since they communicate in insults, he probably learned a lot of those and then, it's only a matter of figuring out which one serves his purposes best.
@thinkwithurdipstick4 жыл бұрын
Well the book never makes it sound as though he has a firm grasp of the language, he knows mostly curses he overheard from multiple dwarf prisoners over countless years. But any amount of khazalid from a grobi is enough to send dwarfs into a murderous rage

Skarsnik promised him a literal pillar of warpstone, and he did suspect being betrayed. He didn’t bring all of the skaven leadership, like arch incorrectly stated, he went alone with Skarsnik taking a retinue of his strongest stormvermin as bodyguards. He intended to kill Skarsnik, but Skarsnik had set an ambush and the only reason it worked is because the goblins heavily outnumbered the skaven. Seriously, read the story it makes so much more sense than how arch describes it.

Since I know some people would like to know what happens to Skarsnik in the end times I'll give a very watered down summary here (major spoilers ahead): Wurrzag pronounces Grimgore Ironhide and Skarsnik as the living avatars of Gork and Mork (no we don't know who's the avatar of who). So that's pretty bad-ass, right? Skarsnik also kicked some Skaven ass while defending Karak eight peaks but Gobbla his lovely pet gets literally cut apart from the inside and he was actually heartbroken as well as very pissed off. During the final battle, he leads the final charge of Greenskin forces after Grimgore dies. However, he is never mentioned to explicatively have died. It's a common theory that with his ultimate cunning he painted himself and the few surviving loyal greenskin forces purple and survived the end-times that way.

Also, he was more wide than he was tall(or close to anyway), and size is power for a greenskin. Also, isnt "Backstairs Boyz" simply not a play on "Backstreet Boys"?

I got into watching ArchW via his Gotrek & Felix video. I then took up his advice to read the books and am currently on the final book of the main series, Slayer. Totally awesome stories. All the way up until The End Times. Now it certainly has its merits being awesome on a level of awesome that doesnt have any right to be in the realm of a believeable and beautifully constructed fantasy universe.Yet what does this make it? Yes, right! Contrived - painfully so :( Its almost as if GW brought in the End Times just to finish off the heroes (seemigly, now formerly) blessed by their gods. Nathan Long was handling the stories masterfully, and said he had an idea of what the ending might be. But no! GW got rid of him and brought David Guymer - suspected Chaos worshipper - with his colourful, and clever, yet overly hectic style of writing to basically mess with the vibe.
