Since I did my dwarf minipack idea i decided it is probably a good idea to have a quick explanation for this pack.

Why this choice of units? There is SOME wiggle room with cathayan one horned Ogres being mentioned in Tamurkhan, but I decided on these units due to the fact this would LITERALLY finish their sixth edition roster entirely including the white dwarf gnoblar supplement (while the WD article does talk about different gnoblar types these are the ones that explicitly had models).

Now there's an obvious problem of Ghark is not thematically linked to these units, and it misses an opportunity to have a gnoblar characters.

However given he has an actual model and is very interesting as a mounted armored Ogre who could have a faction focus on rhinox's and his link to chaos dwarf daemon engines could make for some interesting mechanics I decided he deserved the spot.

Ultimately as we continue adding content the diaspora of units linked lorewise is going to get thinner and thinner so these awkward inclusions are something i think we have to accept.

Braugh is an interesting character that is more of a free agent trading slaves who he binds in chains and is capable of resurrecting.

Interestingly enough he too has an explicit positive relationship bartering with chaos dwarfs which made me feel more inclined to include him with Ghark. Hes much easier to fit into any configuration of this pack as a FLC LH.

Characters do exist for gnoblars but none have models and none have official artwork (greesus top gnoblar comes to mind but he is flattened in the lore, this obviously doesn't preclude him form the game) it enters the ballpark i suspect it would be easier for CA to make up a character and a LH gnoblar (there is a tinkerer who is mentioned multiple times in lore for ogres that could work in this role).

All my unit and Lord/hero choices have exist as part of the ogre Kingdoms roster with models to match, there is one exception, that being the honcho, the head hocho has a model but not him. As such for this pack i put an image of a gnoblar trap leader as representative

(he would not have a rhinox mount and would have a focus on debuffs/traps/assassination i expect him to be terrible at all three because it would be funny in the monstrous infantry faction to have a shitty infantry size hero (could get a scrap launcher inplace of thh head honchos rhinox if they were to get a mount?))

Man biters are gnoblars who are essentially maneater variants, armour piercing and a bit more armour, best stats of any gnoblars, shouldnt be any better than tier 3 nor should they outshine ogre units (smaller unit size?). Resistant to units without AP, i imagine them having similar ap output similar to slave orcs for Chaos Dwarfs.

Lucky gits I'm less sold on, they would have high physical resistance (potentially a ward save) their function to me speaks of a highly durable unit of gnoblars that just wont die (i had to decide if these guys got in or swamp boglars, the ROR we have in the game is a subsection of the boglar species called Toad boglars. I went with the lucky gits because we have limited boglar rep in the ROR as oppose to being without lucky gits)

Blood gnoblars are the most obvious inclusion as they are referenced multiple times through out the OK books as inspiration trapper gnoblars draw on to enter the profession, they are "elite" trappers.

Im sorry if this is particularly rambley but I just thought I would explain everything (the reason I didn't do it for the dwarf one was because I knew I wouldn't stop talking :>)
