So if you take a moronic, crazy little goblin (or an orc in Table top) and give it access to magic that is the crazyness that comes out. (such as having their god literally step on you.) It is also a warcry or even an entire offensive campaign. It is a word of many uses to the greenskins. Not sure how much i helped but i tried.

You must understand that the only thing keeping Orks from conquering everything is the fact that the cannot stop fighting amongst themselves and it is only with a power Warboss they will actually unite for awhile, until at least they are either beaten back, their enemies are dead, or they get frustrated if it takes too long and resume killing each other. Feel free to correct me, I only dabble in Fantasy, my main subject is 40k. ------------------------------------------- If you dont like something, make your own. |

Waaaagh is not so much a noun as a mindset. You could say that it's a word representing the ideals of greenskin culture (what culture greenskins possess anyway). So for an Orc, Waaaagh is everything right and proper about being orky. Hence Waaaagh can mean: |
