Like the idea of aliens instead of positively mutated humans. And this look is cool.

How tall will a standart grudd be? like a human or smaller?
Do they use any alien beasts for labor or riding?
When i saw them i thought of one part beeing the proffesional army with the newest kiling-gizmos and one part beeing the militia armed with pickaxes and heavy mining equipment re-rigged for combat. Giant drills with guns welded onto them.

And, are you thinking of making super heavy walkers for them? i feel a certain race of spacedwarfs always needed this, and with some realy cool proxies, maybe somebode would write up the rules for them.

Thanks!
Average height is roughly 4.5 feet - older individuals will be taller.
Cool Idea for the beasts of burden...maybe!
The Grudd operate on a strict Clan system, where tithes are paid up the chain to the eldest members of each clan. So there will be tons of lowly Grudd miner and soldier types with relatively low-tech weaponry, while the elite members of each clan rock the better, more advanced gear.
They may eventually get walkers of some kind, but most of their vehicles will be industrial looking beasts with a railroad/tank vibe or tunnelers. If they do get walkers, they likely wont look humanoid in appearance...

Looking forward to see more. Everytime there is news from you i want to start a new army.

And one last question for now, are the Grudd drinkers?

Oh yes - and they have recently taken a strong liking to Terran Tobacco. In fact, Strong Ale and Fine Cigars have quickly become a valuable commodity for the Terrans when dealing with the Grudd.

Sketch of the Grudd Iron Lord Armor:

Image

As I mentioned before - the elder members of a clan are paid tribute by all of their younger kin, and thus become quite wealthy. These individuals go to battle in the coveted Iron Lord Armor - turning them into virtual walking tanks, armed with heavy assault weaponry like powerful mining drills and Mico-Beam cannons.

You can see a hint of Nordic embellishment here and there - not overwhelming, but it marks this individual as one of the elite.

This is great stuff, but I'll point out that your grudd have a passing resemblance to Privateer Press's Trollkin race, and the Iron Lord armor looks like their Ghordson Driller warjack.

But, since I am no longer a fan of Privateer Press, I'll remain loyal to you deacon and continue to be amazed at your wonderful designs.
