Greetings from ITALY

[Ruvax]

Hi guys!!
Mi name is Luca aka Ruvax, from Italy.
With some friends we started a project "orks", and actually we are 12 people.
At the moment we are the biggest group of orks in Italy ( )!!!
I remember when in 2008 I went in Diemelstadt for Drachenfest... guys the german Orks were fantastic!!! Beautiful and frightful and powerfull!!!
So I decide to join this forum to learn as much as possible to "pimp my ork"...also because I hope to come next year (or as soon as possible) in the orks camp during Drachenfest or Conquest!!
Thank you in advance for any help you'll give me!!!

Orcs from Italy... Cool... Which region are you from?

[Shartok]

cheerio there...

it´s been a long time since 2008. there is no orc camp @ conquest of mythodea anymore...and the DF-orccamp grew sinde 2008...and split up in 2012, with some orcgroups staying at the DF and other groups moving over to the EpicEmpire.

you´ll find the "Drachenfest - Orcclanlager(OCL)" and the "EpicEmpires - OrkHeerLager(OHL)" right here and you´ll be welcome to both - but you might want to check out the ocl-guys since there are quite a lot people from italy hitting heads @ the drachenfest.

for more information on drachenfest-orcs : they are gathering here.

the epicempires can be found here & on that webpage.

Hi guys and thanks for the reply!!

so @Broggah... As soon as possible I'll post some pictures... but I'll advise you: I'm the worst ork in my group because I'm "the newbie"... I don't want to offend anyone "professional german ork"...
@Gashat: We are all from Lazio, precisely Rome.
@Shartok... thanks a lot for the infos!!! I know many guys leaving Italy for Germany every years for DF, but no one for the orkamp!! I hope I'll be the first next years... a question: is better DF or EE? How does EE works? Like DF or Conquest? I know that are not simple questions, especially the first one...

Thanks a lot!!!

No glorification needed dude We're just a bunch of asses doing orcstuff.

Orcplayers on EE go to EE because they prefer Same for DF. They are poles apart

Talking about the events EE is much smaller (1,5k) but less "anyting goes". All participants on EE follow one of 7 campguides and around 50% of the camps have a more historical than a fantasy background. All in all its low power, low to mid fantasy and mostly not really plot driven. If there is plot its much more camp related.

DF is much bigger, and only some camps have guidelines. Its much more plot driven and from lowest to highest fantasy everything can be found.

While EE is more a war driven orcish mercenaries/soldier/military camp, DF is more about clans n tribes and stuff.

hope it helps;)

aah I think then you should know the roman group that always attends to the red camp. the centurio (or now even higher rank?) is the coolest guy

at drachenfest most of the orcs are in clans, all with their unique background. some of them got together in the composite 'altes blut' (old blood). even one clan from denmark is coming. but this year one clan that plays in the lord of the rings background and always only visited EE will attend again to df (after the split). on the epic empires many orcs play in the LOTR background but there are also a few clans and militia orcs.

on the epic empires many orcs play in the LOTR background but there are also a few clans and militia orcs.

in fact about 50% percent is LOTR. the other 50% are own backgrounds...that said, because some folks never get off their mind, that the EE-OHL is by no means a "LOTR"-orccamp.

but this year one clan that plays in the lord of the rings background and always only visited EE will attend again to df (after the split)

not true . they were @DF-OHL before and still are @EE-OHL. some people will attend both events as orcs.

[Ruvax]

Thanks guys for the answer... I'm very interested both in DF and in EE.
@Broggah
Sure I know the Centurio!!!
The head of the group is my friend... He had an association of RPG in Italy where I played years ago... and I played in the red Camp in Germany in 2008 and 2009 with them!!
Prepare yourself that he will come in Diemelstadt this years also!!!

[Broggah]

awesome! he is one of the pillars of the red camp
