One entity in particular had stirred Gothic rage to the boiling point, the Communist Party of Sharfghotten. As Sentinels from around the Empire readied themselves for deployment, a brief statement was issued from the Great Hall which would officially launch what many inside Gholgoth were referring to as 'The Great Crusade'.
In the days since the Gothic announcement to the world of our intentions, we have seen a mixed bag of responses from across the globe. There are many who express interest or concern, and there are some who choose another path, that of belligerence. The infidels of Sharfghotten have said many a boastful word, proclaiming Gholgoth to be dead and nothing more than a decaying relic of a time long since passed, but soon they shall see the error of their arrogance. At his very moment, millions from across the Empire and millions more from across almighty Gholgoth prepare themselves for the greatest Crusade of our time, to bring about real change and usher in a New World Order.
In order to accomplish this, there must be not doubt as to the strength and capacity of Gholgoth. Therefore we shall make an example of the Communist heathens of Sharfghotten and those foolish enough to flock to their defense, an example which will set the precedent for the Great Crusade when it is formally launched. Wotan, the God of War, demands blood and retribution, and on this day he shall have plenty. The Sharfghotten scum would do well to ready their defenses and summon forth their armies, though attempting to resist the unstoppable Gothic juggernaut is ultimately a futile effort.
So now, we urge those who doubt the power of our regional alliance to sit and watch, for we shall grant you but a taste of what is to come in the near future. Should any seek to defy us further and aid the Communists, then their blood shall be spilled until it rains down from the skies.
Gholgoth is coming.
