   It's mentioned in Codex Eldar and there is at least one reference to
it in one of the relatively recent WD's. Basically, Ulthwe raids
shifted power to favor Ghazghkull Thraka over another Ork who would have
attacked the Eldar.
   Kinda digressing here, but what's so great about Thraka? They say
he's supposed to be one of the greatest Warlords yet the only Waagh he's
personally led has been defeated. I'm pretty sure there are other Orks
mentioned who have "ravaged many Imperial worlds" or some such so why
does he still get all the fame?
