Random Star Player questions

I was looking at a list of Star Players and had some questions:

1) Anyone happen to know why Morg N Thorg will play for Vampires but not for Undead, Necromantic, and Khemri?

2) For people that use Slann or Demons of Khorne, do they allow Morg N Thorg to play for those teams as well?

3) And lastly, Kreek Rustgouger. Would you say he is a Rat Ogre or a regular old cyborg-Skaven? Hard to tell from the pic in DZ2, if it's just a close-up or he's really big. He does have ST 7, but I was guessing that was linked to Ball&Chain.

1. Teams either get Ramtut or they get Morg. My guess is someone thought an Egyptian mummy didn't belong with a Vampire team

2. Yes.

3. No idea. I would not think he's a Rat Ogre, but GW will decide based on whichever model they think looks "coolest".

The story says that in a match where Morg was playing for the champions of death, tomalandry thought that could raise morg as an undead, and asked ramtut to block him hard " accidentally" , from there Morg refuses play for teams where ramtut could play.

Yep, Morg distrusts Undead in general and Ramtut in particular.

Kreek Rustgouger is indeed a Rat Ogre.

Kreek Rustgouger is indeed a Morgster.

Incidentally, I HATE that revision to Morg'th N'throg's name.

I find it annoying too. It's just plain laziness to change it the way they did, in my humble opinion.

Glad I'm not the only one. But that said, that was a change back in 3rd Ed, not anything to blame the current designers for. It's probably better for them to be consistent now than to ping pong back and forth. But I still call him Morg'th.

Oh, I'm not blaming the current designers. They're doing pretty good. The guys in the 90s though.... :roll: :roll: :lol:
