How to recruit Gorduz Backstabber in Total War: Warhammer 3
The Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs DLC for Total War: Warhammer 3 has finally arrived, bringing a ton of Chaos Dwarfs units and new campaign mechanics to both the Realms of Chaos and the Immortal Empires campaigns. One of the additions is a legendary hero all three Chaos Dwarf factions can call upon: Gorduz Backstabber.
Gorduz is a large Hobgoblin, a gambler at heart, who always sports a crooked and scary smile as he rolls the dice. Like many others of his race, the chieftain sells his lethal services to the Chaos Dwarfs without any remorse about killing and enslaving fellow Greenskins.
As detailed in our Chaos Dwarfs tips, Gorduz Backstabber is an integral part of a successful campaign with the Dawi-Zharr. You can skill him to be become an excellent fighter, who can up against the likes of Grimgor Ironhide, or upgrade his talent as a Hobgoblin commander, which provides lots of useful boosts for Hobgoblin units in the same army as Gorduz – fielding one Hobgoblin-only army with Gorduz embedded in it and sending it out to raid far-away lands is a very good strategy to keep up the supply of fresh Labor and make sure your enemies are busy.
Here’s what you need to do to recruit Gorduz Backstabber as the Chaos Dwarfs in Total War: Warhammer 3.
How to recruit Gorduz Backstabber
The recruitment of Gorduz Backstabber works the same for all Chaos Dwarf factions across both the Realms of Chaos and Immortal Empires campaigns, which greatly simplifies the process – you don’t need to learn different mechanics.
A few turns into a Realms of Chaos or Immortal Empires campaign, a quest will trigger and ask you to recruit eight Hobgoblin units into your armies. You can do this by building your most basic military building, the Hobgoblin Mustering Camp.
Any Hobgoblin units are viable to complete the quests, but not Orc or Goblin Laborers – they are different kinds of Greenskins.
Gorduz comes equipped with two legendary items, the Dagger of Malice and the Banner of Slavery.
Creative Assembly
Once you’ve completed this task by having eight fresh Hobgoblin units in your armies, you’ll have recruited Gorduz Backstabber and can command his services on the campaign map as well as on the battlefield.
Gorduz isn’t the only legendary hero joining Total War: Warhammer 3 with Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs and update 3.0 – Ulrika Magdova is available for Kislev and the Empire. However, you must first claim her through your Creative Assembly account before you can use her in-game.
