"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."

I like most of the skorne stuff, but that model is terrible. A big fat guy on a disk? WTF...

Balance in pick up games? Two people, each with their own goals for the game, design half a board game on their own without knowing the layout of the board and hope it all works out. Good luck with that. The faster you can find like minded individuals who want the same things from the game as you, the better.

Great idea, poor execution. I'd love to see a Jabba-esque model on a palanquin, but this guy just doesn't do it for me. There's no sense of motion to the platform, and it's not big enough to remain stable.

That model is...disgusting.

Not even because of the baby elephants (they look like demon-things to me)

Its just...its a terrible sculpt.

Saw this earlier this evening. I agree on the poor execution, his skirt thing is so busy and badly balanced that it looks like he's in the process of sliding off, not fatly leaning back and commanding his bulk forward

They're called Agonizers. And they torture them.


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.

It was a bad idea when GW did it:

And it's still a bad idea when PP does it.

I wish I could actually see the model, but it looks like the Skorne beast warlock is finally here.

The only thing stopping me from starting a Skorne army was the lack of beast warlock.
