How to unlock the Iron of Death achievement

    Pretty straightforward. As you advance through the game, you should have the opportunity to unlock the "Death Threat" upgrade. This allows you to press Y to issue a death threat to captains through the domination of a subservient orc.

    When the threat is issued, the threatened captain will receive a power boost, a posse, and a greater chance to drop an epic rune when killed. All you have to do at this point is kill the threatened captain to get the achievement.

    mcnuggestsMake sure YOU land the killing blow, not your Branded Urk (Captain or whatever).

    maguzzoloIs it possible to threat a branded captain and then simply dispatch him?
