The sound of slapped stomachs and smacked lips are echoing across the Mortal Realms as the Ogor Mawtribes expand ever outwards on their all-consuming Mawpaths.
The new Battletome: Ogor Mawtribes lays on a buffet of scrumptious rules for these husky rascals, with a breadth of new tools for taking bites out of all comers – whether it's the rotting flesh of Deadwalker Zombies (sickly sweet) or the stampeding cavalry of Chaos (gamey with a piquant touch).
Mawtribe armies are built around a core of ravenous Gluttons and indomitable Ironguts. These brutish Gutbusters have clearly been eating plenty of protein and forcing down their greens – orruks, not veggies – and it’s left them hungrier than ever.
Gluttons now get a Range of 2" on their clubs and bluntblades, meaning big mobs can wade in and pulverise foes even outside the claustrophobic confines of Gallet.
The ironclad elites of the Mawtribes wade into the fight, hacking and smashing foes into tender, bite-sized chunks. If the feast ever falters, it’s Down to the Ironguts to turn things around. This ability gets a serious upgrade in the new battletome, allowing these brutes to unleash their rage by fighting a second time once per battle. The strike-last effect is in play the second time, but these armoured bruisers are used to weathering blows.
Beastclaw Raiders constantly feel the frosty nibbling of the Everwinter at their heels – this constant harrying has toughened up their swift Mournfang Packs, making them reliable Linebreakers.
These corpulent cavaliers can now rush toward ranged units with impunity, subtracting one from wound rolls for missile attacks as arrows plink off their thick pelts. They can even anticipate enemy Unleash Hell commands, lunging forward with such ferocity that only an unmodified roll of 6 will wound them.
Not to be outdone, mighty Thundertusks can channel the supernatural cold that clings to their forms into a new monstrous rampage. Chill of the Everwinter blasts a glacial aura onto enemy units within 1" of them, freezing each of them with a strike-last effect on a roll of 3+.
This tooth-chattering rampage makes Thundertusks into a terrifying support tool, locking down enemies for your charging ogors to devour at will… assuming anyone survives the initial trample.
Battletome: Ogor Mawtribes will be heading to pre-order in short order. Tasty enemies had better beware, lest they be gobbled up entirely.
If you’re hungry for more ogor morsels, you can tuck into a banquet of video victuals on Warhammer+. Loremasters dips a ladle into the simmering stew of lore, while the second episode of Battle Report’s Path to Glory campaign flings the Stormcast Eternals into the jaws of an ogor warband – subscribe now to find out if they succeed.
