Didn’t the list have generic light cannon, with Bronzino’s particular named company just being the best at the move-and-fire thing? Or was that a later version?


Did DoW get army rules outside of 5th edition WHFB?

Checking may army book, it was a handful of generic characters, and everything else was a specific regiment of renown or named character.

Nothing in the 6th ravening hordes pamphlet. I stopped collecting army books at some point into 6th, so if there was one I might have missed it. Dropped out of WHFB at that point.


They had some sort of "Ravening Hordes: Addendum" in White Dwarf shortly after 6th edition came around, and a couple of Regiments of Renown were added during 6th edition (Mengil's Manflayers and the Company of the Damned iirc.) - the army list had generic units for the stuff in the 5th edition army book, i.e. "generic pikemen" and such, which could be fitted out with either equipment or a short list of magic items to closely match specific 5h edition RoRs (i.e. the generic crossbowmen had options for heavy armour and pavises, there was a leopard banner to make the leopard company and so on). It was published in two parts, the first having all the generic stuff and the second the more outlandish RoRs and special characters, and was collected in Warhammer Chronicles 2004.

It's gotta be Troggoth or Giant something of that ilk right?

Only other thing I can think is it looks vaguely Bloodbowl shaped?

Female giant isn't it as far as the rumours go, or was that Ogres (or both)?

Rockguts are the only faction that regularly holds rocks, innit?

More importantly... they hold rocks with ammonite fossils in them.

This isn't even the only one in the kit. It's defo part of their particular design language.

I don't think that's a Troll hand. AoS Trolls all share the same weird swollen wrist design, right?

Edit: Okay, the Stone Trolls sort of have actual wrists, so maybe that is a Troll hand after all.

Is there tech both that refined and battered? I thought they were “cleaner” with their mechanicals.

Honest question, not that familer with their modern range.

I'm going to say Cities of Sigmar. As Gideon says it's very similar to the Ironweld Cannon.

For reference Nevelon, yeah their range is a very battered appearance.
