I don't think there is too much of a continuation after being crushed by a giant.

people, remember, he WANTED to die, so there´s no reason at all to be sad about it, not even for dwarf players. now his father can concentrate on being king, and doesn´t have to go get himself killed anymore. always look at the bright side!

Right you are m8, but still this is a great loss for the Dwarven community and a great reason to make an other grudge :twisted:

well, normally i would agree, but he was killed by a dead giant falling on him. now, who´s gonna be the target of that grudge? the dead giant? :D oh, lets simply put up the grudge against all giants, right? :D :D

Damn you've got us figured out :lol: . Well that's why I asked how he died, I'mtrying to follow the whole SoC thing but kinda hard when you're working all the time....

He's had rules and a model for barely 2 monthes? Perhaps he just wasn't selling?

No one said the giant was dead, he just lost one of his heads and fell over. Chances are he was mobbed by a hundred dwarves when he was on the ground, who knows?

"numerous tests have now proven that he is, assuredly, dead"
I think that settles weather Garagrim can hack his way out.

Off course he was mobbed by hundred Dwarfs when he's on the ground 'cause this is the only way we can get our axes above his anckles :lol:

They've done it before. They killed off Cypher or someone like that in the armaggedon campaign.

Bemenacth: Cypher's not dead. He was a major incendiary in the Eye of Terror campaign.

A dwarf ladder would be cool. I mean, they've invented a submarine, so I don't think a ladder would be a huge test of engineering. Or stilts! That would be interesting...

I had been thinking of this. It could be very tragic indeed. You can imagine on his death bed when the messanger arrived. They would probably have to sensor the following conversation.

If Garagrim did indeed kill the giant, then he was killed by something that is already dead. Hardly the spectacular death he was looking for.

He died fighting something dangerous .... well, I consider a dead falling giant more dangerous then a living one at any rate.
And his death wasnt the end of an empire, it just means that Ungrim is no longer the slayer king, just a king. It's not like he's gonna say "Right, no more slayers in my city!".

@ Bemenacth, I think its Brother Captain Typho you're thinking about, he was killed in Armageddon, not Cypher. Technically, Cypher cant die, he's being kept alive by some mystical force that teleports him away from danger an instant befor a blow that would kill him could strike.

They also killed off Eldrad in EoT. I hope they kill off another character, like Boris Todbringer. Khazrak needs to kill him in a one on one match up, to settle their old scores. But this aint going to happen because GW said that 1 character would die, not 2, just 1, and that character has already bought the farm.
