Walkthrough[]
Quroq died when he battled Alaric. Gotai promised to make the murderer pay for this crime. He gathers to a meeting with Kujin, where Khengi announces a competition for the new Khan. Since Quroq had no official son, Khengi decides that the first one who gathers 1000 heads from the men of the Griffin Empire wins. Gotai wants to chase Alaric, however, Kujin tells him he should become a Khan first to unify the clans and prepare himself for what is to come.
Gotai has also a rival named Kragh. Gotai must not allow Kragh to win this competition. On his way out, Kujin tells Gotai he could bribe the goblins to take some heads, as this competition requires strength, as well as cunning instincts. So, Gotai needs to kill every human he sees. About hundred more heads will be awarded if Gotai destroys farms. In the center of the map, the goblin trappers are the contact Kujin spoke of. They require 5000 gold to take 150 heads from Kragh, though Gotai has only one opportunity.
After the 1000 heads have been collected, Gotai needs to rush to Kujin to give the heads. After giving the heads, Gotai is named as the new Khan, though many Orcs challenge him. Kujin says anyone challenging Gotai is an enemy to Mother Earth. An Orc named Tengal shouts that he is Quroq's heir and does not accept Gotai as their Khan. Gotai tells he is seeking glory and Tengal responds that only the strongest are the winners. For this, Gotai charges and kills him. Gotai thinks of conquering other clans and killing Orcs who will not accept him as a leader. Kujin stops him there, as she persuades him she will go to meet with the clans and solve the dispute peacefully. Gotai lets her do that while he goes to attack the men of the Empire.
Events[]
- Quroq is killed.
- Gotai becomes a new Khan.
Strategy[]
Gotai needs to kill as more as possible. Brutes seem like a good idea, and combining it with burning the farms, Gotai will have the heads in no time. He needs to be quick, as Kragh has also the possibility to attack the farms.
