Hello all,
I have been posting on forums like Warseer, Wargamerau .. etc for quite some time now, and I just discovered this empire forum so I figured it was time that I share my army with the greater community.
First of all I will start by introducing one of my armies which I started and completed in 2009 and some of you who actively post on Warseer might have seen my "Gobotonnia" army which is a heavily converted Bretonnia army in goblin theme.
http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=195596MY Gobotonnia army is base on a story of a young goblin wolfrider warboss named Whaga, who vowed to Gork and offered his soul to gain the power to unite the warring tribes and defeated the Bretonnians. In the aftermath of the battle, the goblins scavenged amongst the battlefield, took any shiny possessions they could get their hands on to be branded as their own. The goblins armed themselves with an assortment of swords, broken lances, shields, armours and helms etc captured in the battle, and carried as a mark of their self-evident superiority.
The goblins later became fanatically devoted to Whaga and proclaimed him to be their king and Gobotonnia was formed. Whaga was crowned as the King of Gobotonnia.
and now, in 2010.
the Whaga's Saga continues..
As the years passed and Gobotonnia continued to grow in power, the rough tribes blossomed into small strong holds, their numbers multiplied and many new settlements were founded. For a number of years Whaga led the Gobotonnian and conquered any opposition that dwelt nearby.
Hordes of goblins poured across the Grey Mountains, through the passes to ravage the lands of the Bretonnia as they flocked to Whaga’s banner. In desperation, the Bretonnian sent emissaries to the Empire to seek help. Fighting in common cause against the Goblins, the Empire and Bretonnia pledged to aid one another against the unstoppable greenskins.
The war between the human and the goblins continued for many years and despite the best efforts of the Gobotonnians, they were driven west into the inhospitable mountains. In desperation, the goblins grew more cunning and in one darling attack captured one of the empires greatest invention – the Steam Tank, as well as several empire’s finest master engineers. Although this victory was at great cost with more than half of the Gobotonnia knights virtually wiped out but Whaga was eager to learn the secrets of fireworks and black powders...
and here is the background for my Empire Army of Gobdorf!
