Warbeasts

Warbeasts were first reported by civilians living near abandoned military positions. Witnesses described pale, horned humanoids with unusually large arms, carrying an axe in each hand. Further sightings were reported along rural roads and at the edges of nearby settlements.

The smaller Warbeast carries paired bone axes. The larger Warchief wears military field equipment and carries steel tactical axes. The Greenskin has a broad jaw, flat nose, lower tusks and green leathery skin. It carries the smaller Warbeast's paired bone axes. Its equipment is thought to have been scavenged from abandoned military stores, although this remains unconfirmed.

Squidbeast has mottled hide and enlarged fists. It strikes with heavy punches and downward smashes. A larger orange form, called Big Jim in local reports, wears a white vest and denim. The remains of metal restraints hang from their wrists; their origin is unconfirmed.

They pursue nearby targets and attack at close range. The Warchief has sufficient strength to throw cars with a strike, shove trucks and, in some cases, overturn armoured vehicles. Entering a vehicle does not end the pursuit. The creature will attack the vehicle while its target remains inside.

Part of the Creatures collection. Available through Game Master, with direct control of the axe-wielding creatures and both Squid variants with their fist and smash attacks. Requires Creature Melee AI 1.8.0 or newer.
