Gritznak and Zoule Consolidate Power in the Orclands.

Gritznak sits upon his new throne ordering the construction of a new Great Hut to reflect his status as an Orc King. Zoule, the Goblin Shaman, consolidates Gritznak's power within his two petty Orc Baronies. Zoule realizes that to continue his crusade to make Gritznak the most powerful Orc Warlord to ever arise from the Orclands he must have cavalry; and the small goblin camp of the Spider Clan has just what he needs, Goblin Spider Riders. While there are Orc and Goblin clans with wargs, boars, bulls and other riding beasts, the spider riders are unique, almost elite. Zoule studies the crude goblin crafted map of the Orclands and plots the army they will need and what path they should take to conquer the Spider Clan.

Upon devising his scheme Zoule sets Gritznak with his small army on a direct path to the Spider Clan camp. Zoule and his bodyguard watch the battle from atop a hill overlooking the camp.
