Well,
the adventure is taking place in the Congo, and I've created a history
for the Congo that gives it an oppressive military dictator who
controls the rather small army and a lot of trolls and orks which
were cast out of society when they goblinized and recruited by
the aforementioned dictator, giving him a powerful shock trooper
corps. They were part of a troll 'terror patrol' - you know,
burn a few villages, blow upa few cattle, keep the peasants
terrified. Non-trolls would have been a better choice for the
sniper role though, dwarves would be better, I guess.

In a nutshell, social reasons.

GLO (yep, I'm gonna stick with this)
