Myrog & Squigspear's Mekkanized Squig'eadz

[Redirected from *Orks*]

"Junkboss Kaptin" Myrog and "Squigboss" Squigspear: two grizzled bosses each leading their own bands of estranged Orks, who have temporarily agreed to plunder equal shares of loot at the end of each battle in the hopes of triggering a united Waaagh! - at least, in lieu of simultaneously blasting the other away with an otherwise-suitably orky "shoota go dakka". Brokering a truce after a particularly close race between a Squigosaur and a Wartrike, the two bosses have a simple history. Simple, at least, in that neither boss can actually stand to be around the other for longer than the duration of a competitively bellowed "WAAAAAGH!!", seemingly because of a philosophically Orky disagreement between the two.

A disagreement (at least, according to the Junkboss Myrog), that concerns the superiority of shiny bitz, loud trukks and louder dakka, over the resurgence of the dinosauric "Squig'ead" Orks lead by Squigspear - who believe that any problem can be solved with either enough fungus beer, a chainsaw attached to an overly long stick, or a kunnin' plan involving explosive squigs. But to think their rivalry merely extends to their differing definitions of "proper killy krumpin'", would be to deny Squigspear's visible hunger to command the looming Waaagh!. It would also ignore how convenient for Myrog it would be to have a rival matching his size taken out of the picture, and to not have any more greenskins make fun of his overly shiny Deffkilla Wartrike. At least, not without facing immediate incineration and the Junkboss' resultant roaring laughter.

After Squigspear and his namesake mount made a particularly lucky find in the asteroid belt nearby Melaniel I - a shiny Skull found nearby the body of a Death Guard Lord of Contagion, who had met an unexpectedly early demise at the hands of the infamous Aeldari Corsairs roaming the region - Myrog is particularly determined to lead the charge and remind his boyz who was put to lead the Waaagh! to begin with. Myrog decided that he would make his point on the planet of Kilfee, named after the unlucky Grot who fell into the superheated engine attached to the Kaptin's Wartrike, giving him a much-needed burst of speed in his race against Squigspear on the belt. Myrog's choice of name would be yet another slight against the Squigboss, who secretly had his own "point" to prove on the planet - a point that, at the most kunningly brutal time of their Waaagh!, would ideally be made with the cocky Kaptin being fed to a vengeful Squigosaur.

Knowing that his shiny, mek-augmented head is a grot's lick away from being krumped clean off by his Squig-munching rivals, Kaptin Myrog stands to prove to his ladz - and the gob-licking Squigboss eyeing up his command - that wheels *won't* break before fleshy legs do. Indeed, Myrog is determined to break the legs (and face) of any ork, 'umie or tin'ead trying to disprove his assertion, and become the sole leader of a powerful, kunnin' and mekanikal *Waaagh!*.
