Krimping

“Krimp den Klomp! nub led dem owd ob da Furt! Blokur dem wib lat boxez so dem nub kin push pazt lat!”

Krimp is an orcish word for “Bind”. Players cannot walk past others when below full stamina. An orcish war party is able to surround and block so they can deliver combined damaged to kill their enemies while they are trapped.

  • Orcs always attempt to krimp their enemies!

Krimps


Standard Krimp

The standard krimp requires four orcs to surround a target on all sides. Up to eight orcs can engage in this maneuver.

“Krimp, Kruzzhealie, Klomp!

Tree Krimp

A tree krimp is done when the target is against a tree or other impassable static object. This can be achieved with only three orcs.

“Mak lyke ah leef agh flat!”

House Krimp

In certain areas trees and houses will be arranged in a way that presents a one tile space in between allowing only two orcs to effectively krimp.

“Stuk between ah rok agh ah hard womp!”

Mojo Krimp



Mojo krimping refers to the spell paralyze. The spell cannot be broken unless the target is hit. Orcs will shout “Krimp den Klomp!” meaning the target must be krimped FIRST and then klomped SECOND.

“Nub break Mojo Krimp!”

Box Krimp



The box krimp is the effective use of impassable items to further strengthen a krimp. Orcs will drop crates, foot stools, wooden boxes, candelabras, or even furniture at their feet or next to them. A standard krimp can be performed without the required four orcs with a box stand-in. The use of macros can be used to facilitate this action. It is wise to drop other items on top of the box to obscure it from vision.

  • NEVER leave a ghost trapped in a box krimp!
  • Always check server rules in regards to blocking players!

“Dis ash nub gettin awei!”

“Unlee dub ork krimp!”

Efficient Krimping



The krimp should always be executed as quickly and cleanly as possible. All orcs must engage in this maneuver regardless of weapon type. Oligurs should not sit back when an enemy is being krimped, they must krimp too. The more orcs surrounding an enemy they more likely they are to block and crossheal. An orc can call for help by shouting “KRIMP!” when they have blocked an enemy by box, stun, hamstring, paralyze, etc.

  • Oligurs (Archers) get in close to krimp!
  • Naked orcs can use their body and fists to krimp*
  • Shout “KRIMP!” to alert orcs of targets*

Positions


When moving to krimp a target there is an order in which orcs coalesce into a krimp quickly. The orc closest to the target always assumes the position on the far side of the target. The middle orcs take up positions on the sides while the orc in the rear takes the near side position.

  • The leading orc always move to the far side of target
  • The middle orcs end up on the sides of the target
  • The orc in the rear should always take the near side of target

“Dez orks awl end up wer dem shuld be!”

Notes


Orcs should always be surveying for krimp positions, planning krimps, and engaging in krimps. With a creative mind you can devise new traps, tactics, and ultimately gain victory on the battlefield.
