After a lifetime spent bloodying his hands on behalf of others, Morghoul has emerged from the world of shadows to command a house like no other—the paingivers. In battle, Dominar Morghoul is attended by two paingiver escorts who aid him in crippling his foes so that his blade may find purchase, and he empowers his army with mortitheurgical might so that they may shift like the sands of the desert to swiftly fell their foes.

Each agonizer embodies pain and manifests its misery as an aura afflicting those around it. This horribly abused infant Titan radiates its suffering with such force that it can suck the vitality and strength from attacking warbeasts and cripple an enemy's assault before any blows are struck. Death comes as sweet relief after the continual torment these creatures endure. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Agonizer

Aptimus Marketh is one of the most accomplished extollers in the Skorne Empire. He is so focused on the arts of ancestral magic that he prefers the company of venerated ancestor spirits housed within sacral stones to that of his living peers. Though somewhat aloof, his magical prowess is unmistakable and Aptimus Marketh is frequently sought out to lend his skill to the most worthy of skorne warlocks. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Aptimus Marketh

Archidons rule the skies over the Stormlands of the Bloodstone Desert with preternatural viciousness. Hunters possessed of keen eyesight and tremendous speed, the enormous winged reptiles are known to trail small groups of nomads traveling across the wastes. Once an archidon has its quarry, it soars upward to drop its hapless victim upon the jagged stones far below before descending to feast upon the broken body. Skorne tyrants and beast handlers appreciate the survival instincts and fighting prowess of these savage beasts.

This Hordes boxed set contains one Skorne Archidon.

For centuries the Skorne used Basilisk Kreas only for breeding, but they have realised a potential for war inherent in the beasts. The Krea's ability to inhibit enemies and disrupt the connection between warlocks and warbeasts has proven invaluable when combined with its powerful jaws and the excited state it enters when fighting near a Basilisk Drake. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Basilisk Krea

Skorne Bloodrunners Unit. contents: this boxed set contains 6x Skorne Bloodrunners

The imposing Arcuarii are encased in extremely thick lacquered armour capable of withstanding an onslaught of punishment that renders them almost impervious to normal attacks. They wield great hooked harpoons that can be wielded in close quarters or fired across the battlefield to sink deeply into an adversary. As a group they are skilled and efficient killers capable of defeating any lesser foe. contents: this boxed set contains 4x Skorne Cataphract Arcuarii

The Cetrati embody perfect Skorne discipline and fearless tenacity. A wall of these warriors charging across the field, with their shields locked and their wicked polearms aimed forward, will crush through lines of lesser infantry and bring down warbeasts. They are the hard centre of the Skorne army. They are the first to fight and the last to fall. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Cataphract Cetratus

The tenacious and vicious nature of the cyclops brutes makes them singularly responsive to training, and the skorne rely on them to hold the flanks of formations or stand vigil over tyrants. Armed with towering shields and massive polearms, brutes constitute a virtually insurmountable threat on the battlefield. Their unique vision focuses on evading blows, and they can extend this power to those they protect.

Cyclops Savages are brutish and carnivorous creatures from eastern Immoren that live to hunt and kill. Their limited ability to see into the future is key to their amazing intuition in battle where they can see exactly how to evade blows or adjust their movements to penetrate a foe's defences. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Cyclops Savage

Among the Savage Cyclops are those of keener minds, those who have used their unique perception and primitive rituals to evoke crude but effective primal magic. Skorne houses strong enough to capture and tame such Shamans value their ability to curse their enemies, to harness the inner power of nearby beasts, and to unravel enemy spells. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Immortals

In an empire known for discipline and precision, it is a rare man who can excel in spite of his unsavory appetites and predilections. Rasheth leads a house well known for its ability to train mighty titan warbeasts, and profits from the recent push for western expansion has allowed him to delve ever deeper into decadence. Too slothful to walk on his own, the Dominar is carried into battle by a team of Agonizers. contents: this boxed set contains 1x Skorne Dominar Rasheth

Makeda leads the Skorne Empire into a new era and in doing so embodies all the strength, pride, and martial prowess of her people. She is not merely supreme archdomina, but one of the greatest military minds and combatants ever forged in the harsh and unforgiving crucible that is eastern Immoren. To signify her rule over the Skorne Empire she now wields the Talon of Murzoul, an ancient relic of great significance and incredible power. At her side stand some of the skorne’s greatest heroes of the past, given new life in stone to serve as her inner guard. Their presence is a tangible sign of approval from some of the greatest warriors and leaders in her house’s history.

It is the Extoller Soulward who selects the greatest heroes of the battlefield for preservation, guiding spirits to ancestral guardians to escape the Void. Those who survive the potentially deadly ordeal to become an extoller can communicate with the exalted. It is their task to invoke the guidance, wisdom and protection of the Skorne's most revered ancestors. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Extoller Soulward

Those Skorne warriors preserved from oblivion by Ancestral Guardians sometimes receive bodies carved from stone and hardened clay, take up weapons heavier than any mortal could swing, and go forth to fight again as Immortals. They may die a hundred deaths only to have a new body crafted each time and rise again to stand alongside the living and wage war eternal. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Immortals

The proud Karax form imposing phalanxes of interlocking shields to impale closing enemies, sweep aside all incoming blows and protect themselves - and those behind them - from explosive blasts. Endless training in unit tactics removes all trace of individual initiative and allows Karax to advance resolutely into even of the most earth-shuddering artillery barrage as shrapnel and fire wash harmlessly over their shields. contents: this boxed set contains 6x Skorne Karax

Skorne Master Ascetic Naaresh. release date: 14/09/11 contents: this boxed set contains 1x Skorne Master Ascetic Naaresh

Molik Karn has borne the paingivers' lash and learned to obey, but his will has never been broken. His service to Makeda extends beyond mere slavery; he has some deeper loyalty to her and brings the full force of his deadly strength and barbaric nature to fight at her side. He truly is a cyclops lord - a giant of his species, cunning despite his brutishness. contents: this boxed set contains 1x Skorne Molik Karn

Beast Handlers learn to evoke tremendous strength and speed from the warbeasts in their charge. With pain-hooks, goads and injections they can calm beasts or push them to fight on despite horrible injuries. There is always a price, but the beast handlers do not care as long as their efforts bring victory. contents: this blister pack contains 2x Skorne Paingiver Beast Handlers

Slavery is one of the most deeply embedded elements of skorne culture. The Paingiver caste takes great pleasure in subjugating new beasts and races, and recent battles have only served to open their minds to new possibilities. Paingiver Task Masters are sent to oversee Skorne Minions in battle, and they are quick to apply the lash to any who grow lax in their service. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Paingiver Task Master

Praetorian Ferox rely on the tremendous speed and agility of their mounts to deliver singular killing power and serve as a formidable forward strike force. Ferox can tear at an enemy¹s flanks, cut straight through his infantry frontline or leap clear of intervening forces set to receive their attack. Then these desert predators whirl about to cut the enemy down from the rear. contents: this blister pack contains 1x Skorne Praetorian Ferox
