@Willy Vereb

First off, I try to be polite around here. So if you want a change, feel free to request it politely.

Second, once you've done that, I'll make the change.

Thank you

@RisenDead

?
English is not my first language so excuse my confusion over somebody requesting polite rather than casual or blunt behavior over the net.
If I offended you then none were intended. My post was attempting to have a faux edge but I also didn't expect somebody taking that to heart.

Can you please change my color to some variation of yellow/gold? That color has an importance for my nation on the cultural level.
Also can you attempt to trace back my borders again, please? It does include 6 mountains and some territory beyond them.

Then we will turn them into some sort of slave should they not submit. Bind them force them into mines! Maybe even be personal servants to the strongest Orruk to be alive, Zippy Bloodfang!

@Lauder

You are no ancient mummy lords. You cannot enslave our corpses!
And you can be guaranteed that no warm-blooded Uruk would remain within your gasp!

@RisenDeadFirst, I am called the Golden Horde because I want yellow color. Choose a bit more orangish hue if the previous yellow is too difficult to see.
Second, I actually own a number of mountains and somewhat beyond that. It's important because the Sechsbergenbund is pretty much the alliance of 6 mountains.

@Willy Vereb
Oh howdy friend. I can't wait to steal your women whilst killing off your populous

@Lauder

Our women are as ferocious as our men and honor kidnappings with a kind motherly stab where it hurts for an Orruk the most.

Red is the Orruks (traditional Orks) and Purple is the Kingdom of Yore, a human faction. Both of them have completed NSs in the Char tab.

@ClocktowerEchos

They sure have but map locations are a mess in most of those. So I wanted to know.
Orcs just at the other end of the sea, huh? Must be fun for interactions.

@ClocktowerEchosWho are the purple and orangish red bordering me?

Legacy - Warhammer Fantasy-inspired War NRP

Thanks to actually having a map now and with all those territory claims limiting my choices I already knew where to put my faction.
Gold territory on the bottom.
Since @SomeChap wants desert for his Tomb Kings, I didn't take much of it.

Basically there are 4 cultures.
Uruks - semi-nomads and the uniting force in the area.
Mediterran style trade cities at the parts bordering waters.
Dwarves of Sechsberge who rather chose to ally with Uruk and reap the benefits
Human/other settlements scattered through the lands.

As for the ES Orcs, that might be an interesting thing to see "civilized" Orcs go up against savage Orruks.

@ClocktowerEchos

I can't wait that to happen, either.
Uruk society is extremely organized and this feature of theirs and the fact militarily they overwhelm any of their members is partially why they can keep this land together.

Legacy - Warhammer Fantasy-inspired War NRP

Given how small patch of land is left, I'll just prefer to leave the Uruks before they formed their full Silk Road style culture.
So there'd be less helpers. Probably nomads and sand people ("barbarians") and dwarves found at the mountains who would like to hit up a good trade.

Anyways, I think the main source of confusion is probably that you judge them on what Greenskins in WHFB are.
These orcs are less of that crazy bunch and if I can say closer to Elder Scrolls interpretation of Orcs.
I am actually considering to make them a different race altogether.

Legacy - Warhammer Fantasy-inspired War NRP

My issue with the Golden Horde is the fact that it is mixed races lead by notOrks. You are going to have to give me a very damn well impressive backstory and reason as to why anyone would want to be remotely near notOrks much less fight with them. It goes without saying that in this setting Dwarves aren't too keen on Orruks and their related cousins, Elves would be too arrogant or simply don't trust them and most humans would just be to afraid to be near them when the notOrks are hungry and have a weapon in hand. Also, notOrks aren't exactly known for excellent gunsmithing skills for anything other than a giant crude shotgun in my mind.

In short, this idea has about a 90% of just not being allowed with the remaining 10% open in the case you do want to try and write something impressive up to change my mind.

It's been already done.
I don't say all races are perfectly content with their status within the alliance but your description of any of them is terribly stereotypical, narrow-minded and well... racist (literally).
Aristo already had a rambling about not liking when races are treated as if they can be one type and nothing else.

<Snipped quote by Willy Vereb>

The one in the OP is the current map, it should be sorta like an island.

@ClocktowerEchos

BTW, what each colors mean? at least with the other map it had a name palte for each territory owned.
I would preferably want to be neighbors with a mainline human nation and preferably a number of others for sources of conflict.

Legacy - Warhammer Fantasy-inspired War NRP

@ClocktowerEchosDamn, can you help me which map we use?
There are two different maps and with different allocation of nations in it. I can't really craft a detailed theme for my nation without at least knowing:
- What environment I'll be starting in
- What nations I'll be fighting the foremost

With at least those I can invent the rest.
For now my idea is basically this:

Golden Horde: An emerging empire from distant lands ruled by the iron grip of the Uruk (black orcs). They are mongol-like formerly nomadic nation which is now infamous for their raids and conquest. Their territory is less united and more like a collection of small countries united by their subservience to the Uruk Empire. Humans, elves, dwarves and more exotic races alike fight along with the Uruk and form the dreaded Golden Horde. As such their equipment varies though the army as a whole has a near-religious preference to gunpowder. Your average Uruk warrior is a gun-wielding warg-riding agile cavalry, often seen in raids.
