NOOB'S GUIDE TO GRIMGOR IRONHIDE

The lore and how it inspired the gameplay of the biggest, angriest git to ever tread the wastes of Warhammer. Grimgor Ironhide has arrived to show all you noobs how to give a right proper krumpin' in Total War: Warhammer 3!

[@arthurgomes5188]

Having a issue that you created for selfish reasons get out of hand and become *everyone else's problem* is probably the most chaos dwarf way of handling a situation possible.

Best version of the lore

[@ZoMbi5lAy3r]

Grimgor "nutted" him, which is Bri'ish slang for headbutting. But I prefer to believe he kicked him in the nuts

Yea, but daemons, norscans, and norscan trolls are all used to the cold, our green boiz weren’t. It’s why it worked.

[@fotppd1475]

1:46 That prophecy thing was probably never materialized because they straight up forgot about Skarsnik's very existence (despite not forgetting the other 2 of the Eight Peaks Trio) who was supposed to act as the Squigma male brains (Mork) and Grimgor the Squigma male brawn (Gork).

[@TheManofthecross]

so basically for ork prophecy its basically skarsnik and grimgor? as the living manefestations of mork and gork?

@@TheManofthecross Wurrzag's prophecy to be exact, but yes.

[@meganobgutzkraka2398]

fun note Grimgor has taken on one of, if not the, main skaven undercity (the one that makes all the monsters), they threw LITERALLY EVERYTHING at him and the tunnel he was in he just planted his feet in the middle of the tunnel, and like John Henry, just started swinging and didn't stop for like...weeks! after he killed the last abomination the rats threw at him? and won!?...he walked away..because grimgor realized he killed all that would fight him, he beat them...and he wanted to keep fighting/ Grimgor wants to fight so much that grimgor has never gone without 2 days of fighting BECAUSE HIS OWN ORCS WONT LET HIM OUT OF FEAR! grimgor is chuck noris on Old World and i would do anything to somehow see him return in AoS

[@bongibot1104]

Chaos gods made sure he didn't survive, because they're probably already quaking in their boots that someone like Gotrek somehow made it

[@captc0ck5lap60]

IIRC Grimgor walked away because he wanted to farm the Skaven of Four Peaks for fighting. So it's like a holiday home he goes back to when things get boring elsewhere. The Skaven of Clan Moulder have no idea and think they are surviving by the skin of their teeth each time this actual walking green cataclysm returns, but in reality Grimgor knows he'd wipe them out and he doesn't want to do that.

[@stephenkellett7836]

During a Skarsnik campaign in Mortal Empires I sent Grimgor to challenge Archaon, as one should. He took a Chaos Knight charge to the face, then tanked them and a Chaos Giant while fighting Archaon until an Arachnarok could peel the Knights and Giant off him. Even unoptimized he's a tank

[@zonolith5912]

This is it lads! Time to get mean and GREEN! Edit: Just remove the blue skill line and add more red for the true thematic gameplay.

[@GoodMorningHikers]

this campaign surprised me in WH3. it was mediocre in 2, but in 3 its one of the funnest I've played. conquering your chaos dwarf masters, fighting kholek at the challenge stone, pouring out of the mountains of morne to destroy and pillage the wealthy lands of Cathay with 12 armies and their WAAHHs, reducing the grand bastion to rubble... this campaign was so thematic and was a gift that just kept giving. it's not as fun as Archaon or Skarbrand... but that goes without saying. those campaigns are PERFECTION. but Grimgor's campaign is shockingly good now.

[@nicky640]

Thanks for stating which other campaigns you like, so that I know that I should not apply to myself what works for you 😅 But that aside... Greenskins... I'll play them soon I'm sure.

[@tylerdurden376]

No pure infantry army is so strong as grimgor and he's black orc buddies.

Once upon a time, Mr. Bonds said he would not taint his video with a joke about of orc procreation when he talked about Skarsnik and said he would save said joke for an Orcs video. Even a joke of orc procreation could not make it in because it wasn’t worth a Grimgor video. Because it’s Grimor Ironhide. Any jokes of orc procreation in Grimgors’ video gets ya a bludgeon to da head.
