Iron'Ed Empire

"The beast bashes upon the gate, louder and fouler than the wolves at his back. We muster at the walls, we let loose the arrows of the Emperor Himself... and yet the pounding, and the thunderous roar that will never cease. We may beat back the wolves. But we may never slay the beast."

- Excerpt from the infamous War Poem written by the late Brother Sergeant Tsumo Yi of the Maverick Lords Space Marine Chapter during the failed Uxlag Campaign The Empire of Gruurg Iron'Ed is a massive Ork infestation upon the region known as the Lost Shore, the border of war worlds that exists between the fortress worlds of the Golden Cordon and the infamous River of Exiles within the greater Exile Sector. Led by the infamous Greenskin Warlord of the same name, the Empire is a savage collection of bloodthirsty xenos barbarians, made all the stronger by the constant warfare of the Lost Shore.

Having led his millions strong horde for centuries, the mighty Gruurg Iron'Ed sought to one day break free of the Golden Cordon and bring the entire Exile Sector to heel in a tide of green muscle and ramshackle armored squadrons. Though long hampered by both constant combat against the forces of the Imperium, Chaos, and their rivals within WAAAGH! Uglyface, the Orks of the Empire have only grown stronger and more disciplined from the endless warfare weeding out the weak within their ranks. And now, in these dark days of the End March, Iron'Ed's brutal hordes are now free to spill into the greater Exile Sector and WAAAGH! with impunity.
