'''Gorgutz 'Ead 'Hunter''' was an [[Ork]] [[Warboss|Warlord]] of the [[Blood Axes]] who was involved in four major campaigns in [[M41]].
== History ==
First was the battle for [[Lorn V]], where he temporarily allied with (and then took the head of) Lord [[Crull]], the [[World Eaters]] [[Champion of Chaos|champion]]. After being defeated on Lorn V, he fled to [[Kronus]] and built up his [[Waaagh!]] once more, only to - once again - be defeated. He then arrived in the [[Kaurava system]], settling his forces on [[Kaurava II]].
As his name implies, Gorgutz has a penchant for taking the heads of his enemies, for as he pointed out to one particularly unobservant [[Nob]], it would make no sense to put someone's ''foot'' on his "pointy stikk".
==Trivia==
He is the second longest appearing character in the ''[[Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War|Dawn of War]]'' series (the first being [[Gabriel Angelos]]) having appeared in ''[[Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Winter Assault|Winter Assault]]'', ''[[Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Dark Crusade|Dark Crusade]]'' and ''[[Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Soulstorm|Soulstorm]]'' without dying and will make a return in [[Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III]].
== Canon Conflicts ==
A [[Warboss]] named '''Gorgutz''' appears in the graphic novel [[Blood and Thunder]], but that warboss is killed in the third chapter of that series, so the character detailed above is likely to be a different Ork.
