No, I knew what you meant, I just don't see any particular reason to build ones specifically for short range.

Because different use cases benefit from different adjustments in design.
EDIT: Perhaps the best example is Mathilde´s custom gyrobomber. We had it built the way we did for a reason. Different purpose, different design.

I'm not sure it was ever connected to Mazdamundi specifically.
In 8th edition Lizardmen, it was a conclave of Slann led by a Lord Quex, with Mazdamundi being unmentioned in that part.

That cunning goblin got knifed, yes. I'm sure there will be a long list of others competing for the title of Morkest (or Gorkest) goblin around. And like the gods said, they love a scrap now and then, so who's to say they wouldn't eventually empower an avatar of Mostly Mork and Mostly Gork, rather than only? Sounds like a fun time, with lots of great fights.
There's a huge difference between Mostly and Only. Imagine someone that says they mostly bath alone vs that they only bath alone.
Most greenskins have a tendency either way, but it's not the only thing.

Sure, my point was that an orc or goblin of that importance and deific investment might happen again.
It didn't seem like Mork (or Gork?) was very fond of the idea. Quite the opposite. He's not going to do that. I don't think the other one is going to press forward with it. The whole thing was a Tzeetch plot.

Given they did exactly this to Ollanius Pius, the below rings true.
The entire reason Ollanius Pius was cool was that he was just a regular man, who was just a regular imperial guardman. Yet he stood up to Horus and saved the Emperor. Now apparently he's a 45000 year old Perpetual because GW gotta GW.

You forgot that one other Space Marine and than a Cusotodes who did exact same sacrifice he did right after him because of course normal human can't be allowed to be revelant.
GW did fuck around a lot about it own backstory which is a pity.

I don't think the story was ever "all three of them did it", it's different versions of the story told by different groups where Ollanius is replaced by an Imperial Fist Terminator or a Custodian, with it being left ambiguous which story was real. But I'm pretty sure "All three of them did it one after the other" is just a fandom meme.
Preventing the Only Gork/Only Mork split just means that the Once and Future Git is gonna get all the Gork and all the Mork power.

You fool, Dynamic Duo Dynamic Entry as a direct reflection of Gork and Mork on the mortal plane.
A duo of the perfect goblin and perfect orc working together in harmony is more terrifying then just about anything else I can think of in setting. Chaos itself has problems dealing with orks...

Now I'm imagining a Warboss decked out in the finest of spider silks, layered so thick as to be armor in its own right, but so splendorous as to make a Marienburg merchant weep.
Probably depends a lot on how well your people already get along with the Dawi- but Boney's gone with the interpretation that if you believe a Grudge against you is unjustified, you do have options, so I suspect the same applies here.

I think when the argument involves images of John Cena performing a fusion dance, we've officially hit peak thread madness.
Thread madness maybe. But peak thread madness is only reached once Boney starts shitposting too.

It's barely been around a month since the last update, I wouldn't call this peak thread madness.
On a totally unrelated note, I'm trying to come up with potential Eltharin aliases for Mathilde for the Elfcation that I don't actually wanna go on next turn.
I know we already have "the Silver Savage" from Asarnil, but that's just Malavoi ("Savagery, creatures the deep") + Ithil ("silver") because it sounds close to Mathilde. And I know Boney's also previously proposed that if you mangle Weber to Ye-dar you get either Yenlui Daroir/"Dwarf-friend" or Yenlui Darlioth/"sees opportunity in disorder", but I'm not all that satisfied with those.
I like the idea of either going with my previous idea of Issth Sariour or Issariour - Serpent of the Moon's Light/Trickery under Moonlight/[Wisdom Asp's] (Mis)Fortune - or just translating one of our existing titles, such as Azrildrekked. It'd be missing the context of Mathilde's role in K8P, but it could take on the meaning that it lacks in Khazalid - Silver Undertaker.
Ithil Drome, perhaps? Ithil is silver, Drome means "The Underworld Stair, descent, inevitability". And you can't get more Undertaker-y than descending to the underworld, or in this case, the goddamn Shadowlands. Asides from Silver Undertaker, it could also mean something like Inevitable Silver or Descending Silver. Thoughts? My knowledge of fictional languages isn't all that better than it was a couple of years ago.
