And then there are the other goblin tribes who Bandos sent to the other gods in the God Wars, such as the Saragorgak and the Huzamogaarb. Will they go with Saradomin and Zamorak after the tournament? And are the surface goblins looking into Invention as well as the Dorgeshuun? If so, this could mean that they are experimenting with powering a war machine Zarador is building by using divine energy and electricity.

Personally, I think the Bandosians could be a force to be reckoned with if they rally around someone with a good strategy and charisma, as well as being strong enough or just defeating enough enemies to be noticed. Goblins can make decent scouts, ogres can be very strong mages (they use summoning, illusions and can 1-hit blue dragons) as well as dabbling in bows (put some glasses on Rantz), trolls are developing their skills in cooking and farming, and are among the strongest races there, and the other races such as fayrgs and raurgs might still be alive.

Personally, I think Graardor will take over since he took 2nd in the Kyzaj. Besides, he was already famous and definitely the most powerful of Bandos's remaning followers. -Ascertes, King of all the Hallowlands and the Everchosen of Saradomin.

I kind of hope we could have something like "Tales of the Bandosians" that could follow on with the various splinters of the faction. Something involving Graardor's forces in the God Wars Dungeon, or cleaning up everything involving Zanik, and maybe deal with the twelve tribes. Tales of the Arc showed that they can tell a variety of stories with the Tales format, so that might be a good way of having multiple stories for all of the Bandosian groups.

On the other hand, the more disgruntled ones may actually join the Queen of Ashes, or join Armadyl purely out of spite for Bandos.


I think Armadyl too, but not out of spite for Bandos, (and not because i follow Armadyl myself), but rather because Armadyl managed to win over Bandos, thus proving that he is "stronger" than him. General Graador will most likely not go with Armadyl.

I'm sure it's General Graardor.

Zanik was suppose to command all the Bandosian forces. General Graardor is suppose to be under her command. General Graarador will be in second command. She died so this means General Graarador is in full command of the Bandosian forces.

If you choose Zanik at the end of Nomad Elegy quest....this means..more plot twist for you. Lol

But if you ask me. I think Bandos's army could split into two. Some Bandosian might prefer to follow Zarador. Some Bandosian might prefer to follow Graardor to find the godsword.

Arguably no one atm.
Many Bandosians are dead (end of World Event 2, they purged most of the human Bandosians for their "failure" in The Mighty Fall) or left to go to the Goblin Homeworld.

The candidates
- General Graardor - One of the strongest remaining Bandosians, commands the GWD group, trying to get the Godsword to try and make the group relevant again
- Murknose - probably not, but he is one of the few speakers left for the group
- Zarador - Not a traditional leader, but could be the place holder since he holds the traditions and knowledge of Bandos and the Ourg race. Think of him like a Goblin High Priest.
- Armadyl - Ironic. He defeated Bandos, and proved Bandos was right. There is the joke running around for following the Big High War Chicken.
- The World Guardian - You did technically win The Kyzaj Tournament (even if dq'd on an un-Bandosian technicality) so regardless of faction, the player "could" try to seize the Bandosian Throne.

I'm curious what Armadyl would do if former Bandosians would try to follow him. Would he cast them aside and want nothing to do with them, or would he allow them to follow him if they were willing to redeem themselves?

I have a feeling that he would let them join him. It's just that Armadyl doesn't seem like the kind of guy to refuse someone just because they have worshipped (or been forced to worship) another god.

That's true, but then I could see it going down like this:

Goblin: You beat Big High War God. Me follow you because you champion!
Armadyl:
Please, don't think of me as some champion or warmaster. We are here to ensure peace and justice in the world.

Goblin: Er, me no sure what you mean, but me follow you anyway. Me gonna be strongest fighter in your army!

I could see some real confusion going on through that goblin's mind now. Why is the god who slew the mighty Bandos pursuing a pacifistic path? How can his followers be that strong if they don't fight each other?

I'm not criticising your faction here, I'm just trying to see this from the goblin's point of view. :P
