The Claw ESMM (CIBBL)

Editorial note by Gozip Blanka

Thank you and welcome to the start of something great I hope. Long an admirer of the SCRIBBL I went on a journey of self reflection and wanted to start giving to something that has given me so much. Not a successful Blood Bowl career myself, dam that tackle from Varag (spitz)....hoho....no not that Varag but I'll edit that part out so I can dream and you can speculate.

Anyhow I just wanted to state that opinions and comments are taken out of context, spun like a spinny thing (we dont have wind turbines yet!) and my word is final. If you dont like it don't buy it, but be make sure to make a donation to (blood welcome) the fumbbl gods. Not Nuffle I hear you ask?? Didn't I tell you what happened with Varag.

Right this first issue is a pilot WIP thing, the aim is to release it once a season with major coverage from the Eastern Steppes and the Mountains of Mourn, and ofc tid bits from around the other non important parts of the wolrd!

So without further ado.....enjoy and Ill speak next season

TEAM AWARDS

Well what a tight season down in the Eastern Steppes and the Mountains of Mourn with only 5 points splitting top to bottom. Everything to play for going into the last round (hypothetically if the Tyrants had taken victory over the Horsemen the league would have had a 3 point difference from top to bottom), but whats this the bone head Ogres have gone for some warm weather training on the coast of Gnoblar Country, the Sea of Dread. Unfortunately they were enjoying training on the beach so much they forgot they had one more game to go.

CONGRATULATIONS


Winner of the Coveted CIBBL ESMM Regional

KNOW YOUR REGION



Ever wanted to know where your local teams come from and a bit of their history?...... no oh well turn the page then

This season we take a look at Grimbonia home to the Grimbonian Giantz, ooh RAA.

Located near one of the first tributaries to the River Ruin, on the northern side of the Mountain of Mourn, north of the Ancient Giant land and south of the chaos Wastes, not far from the creeping caves lye a region of fertie plains known as Grimbonia in the South East of the Eastern Steppes.

A successful Orc colony had established itself in a more peaceful lifestyle. Protected by the mountains there only real enemy apart from infighting amongst orc tribes, was the random Chaos Wastes whose eyes always seem focused elsewhere in the world.

The region took its name from the local big guys who always looked down on the smaller Orcs ('grim' green - 'bones' big guys Nickname for smaller mortals). The Orcs without caring for the meaning behind a word always being referred to as Grimbons by the natives simply inherited the name when the colony was brought under the rule of the wise Grull Daleg.

Grull and the civil war

Tribal rivalries is always common in Orc colonies and this one was no different. Half being torn by greed and what the chaos Wastes could promise them from rich pillaged lands elsewhere in the world. It seemed nothing could stop the mutiny of locals seeking riches as promised. Step forward Grull Daleg. The Dalegs were held in high acclaim amongst all greenskins, fiercely loyal, caring, and some of the toughest mortals in the old world. They also brought the unusual trait of wisdom to the table. Seeing the increase in Chaos warbands recruiting or torturing those that rejected, the Dalegs knew they had to defend their wayz. Venturing South through the mountain passes they found and befriended some ogres and gnoblars who liked the sound of the fight and promises of land north of the mountains.

So Grull Daleg, Born Oster (Ogre Lord) and Vipra Dribla (Gnoblar Chief) marched back raising their armies en route to quell the Chaotic disturbance and set free the locals from these warped lies.


"On the 3rd morning of the 2nd moon Grull and his Allies finally reached the plains of Grimbonia only to be horrified of the towering Chaos monstrosities they faced already sieging the lands, not to mention seeing his brethren line up alongside.

For GrimboniaAAAAas the 3 leaders charged forwards armies roaring behind them. Archers popping up from tunnels everywhere hearing Grulls stampede and letting loose before the crash of metal on metal as the plains was filled with thunder and blood. It was said the battle could be heard in far off lands. It lasted a day, a long day. By the end fatigue had taken most of the mortals as the Eye moved away with its monsters defeated.
"


After the battle of Skullz Deep Grull thanked his Allies and made true of his promises to give land. He brought together the tribes that were left and united in their equality started to build Grimdon of Grimbonia, the regions capital.

The Ripple

After the war and many generations of Cathay whispers later, the increasing greed from trade routes through the Eastern Steppes, came disaster. The eye of Chaos shifted back once more at the mercantilism happenings on its doorstep. The eye of Chaos remembering the previous battle called forth the full power of chaos rippling the lands, collapsing into chasms, lava spewing everywhere as mountains shattered up from the abyss completely decimating the region known as Grimbonia. Once a fertile plains, it is now a twisted wreck of dangerous caverns and rock. Marauding Chaos warbands often pass through the area in search of metals revealed from the ripple.

Modern Day

A broken land, inhabited by a broken colony of greenskinz still remaining in the twisted craggy landscape loyal to their ancestors land.

Anyone know where I can find individual player icons for all SL teams please?
Posted by C0ddlefish on 2021-06-21 13:48:25
If you want to use just one of the icons then use [picon=XXXXXX] where XXXXXX is the number of the image on Fummbl.
[picon=?????? x=1 y=1] you can also use X,Y coordinates to pick which specific icon you want from the block. So X=1 Y=1 would be top left etc.
