And while the Deff Dread you get might not be new, it remains an evergreen and efficient way to clobber your enemies. This is a fantastic box to get started on a new Orks army or reinforce an existing Waaagh!. Zodgrod went wandering throughout the galaxy, accompanied by his retinue of snotlings and living as a Freebooter on the fringes of Ork society. Somewhere on his travels he unearthed the philosophies of a Runtherd philosopher known only as ' Narflung'. Narflung had performed experiments with Gretchin, training them to become 'Super-Runts'. The techniques in question involved a great deal of bell ringing and the promise of a prime, juicy Squig. In no time at all Zodgrod had created his own Super-Runts, a new breed of Gretchin who outperformed their lesser brethren on the battlefield, displaying increased aggression, cunning, and bravery. [1] Zodgrod Wortsnagga - Zodgrod was perhaps the greatest Runtherd in history before being expelled from the Warboss Ugulhard Duffgruntas' Chargerz, an extremely fundamentalist band of Snakebites who rabidly rejected the use of advanced technology. After the expulsion, Zodgrod travelled the galaxy and learned several ancient Orkoid techniques to create Gretchin who were possessed of more aggression, intelligence and sheer ferocity than any of their counterparts, which he named "Supa-Runtz." Zodgrod is now hired by Ork Warbosses who are particularly desperate to make use of his Supa-Runtz in battle. WAAAGH! Hruk (855.M41) - The noted Snakebites Warboss Hruk Teefsplinta enslaved the entire population of his old stomping grounds, the binary system of Corva. Forcing his captives to build him spacecraft with holds cavernous enough to accommodate his beloved mega-menagerie, Hruk set off for the core worlds of the Imperium. He conquered the nine Shrine Worlds of Marlisanct and used the system's Basilica Imperator Majoris as a breeding pen to house his Squiggoths. The Snakebites are also known to be a wandering klan that rarely settles in one place for long. They only stay on a planet long enough to get into a fight and then they're off again.

Pardon? Castellan Crowe? We’ve never heard of this man in our lives, and we have it on good authority that there’s no such thing as a ‘Grey Knight’. Sit still, and we’ll send along one of our helpful Inquisitors to show you exactly where you were mistaken.Beast Snagga Boyz can run in units between 10 and 20 strong, which means they play a slightly more specialised role than ordinary Boyz. These fighters may mob together in smaller numbers, but they make up for it in brute hitting power.

Surprisingly, they have proved to be a potent force multiplier on the battlefield for whatever Greenskin force is willing to employ them without first laughing uproariously at the idea.

Most traditionalist Orks believe that the idea of Gretchin who are fearless and competent warriors represents a horrible threat to the very fabric of Orkoid society. But many other Ork leaders who find themselves in desperate straits will not hesitate to hire Zodgrod and his elite Gretchin. As diverse and volatile a group of Orks as ever there was, the Beast Snaggas are united by their universal abundance of scar tissue, bionic limbs, and a shared desire to fight things bigger than themselves. The Beast Snagga keyword not only gives these units a 6+ invulnerable save, but also +1 to hit rolls made against Monsters and Vehicles, which seems like a pretty good starting point. Zodgrod started off as a member of the Warboss Ugulhard Duffgrunta's "Chargerz," a tribe of Orks wholly drawn from the Snakebites klan who were normally determined to cling to the Orks' old ways, yet had managed to develop a relatively high level of technology.

Although they use and understand technology as well as any other Orks, their natural inclination leads them to shun much that is technologically sophisticated in favour of familiar ways. Oh, and in case you were wondering if he’s the only Snakebite Character arriving in the new codex, he’s definitely not. After all, the squig-riding side of the Beast Snaggas can’t just have a few Nobs on Smasha Squigs (which we saw during Warhammer Fest Online) leading them around, can they?

We are a small team of Warhammer Enthusiasts and miniature collectors, hoping to support and further promote the hobby. Beast Snaggas are all about the squigs, from Zodgrod’s living wig to the giant tramplasquigs that lug their Kill Rigs into battle. Squighog Boyz are partial to a medium variety of squig, all the better to blitz headlong at whoever they’re fighting and duff them up on the charge. This set, again available on its own for the first time, contains five models – three regular boys, a Nob on a Smasha Squig, and a Bomb Squig (whose grot rider appears not to appreciate the imminent explosion he’s riding towards, and indeed on top of).Snakebites Orks mounted upon a Squiggoth and a Grot mounted upon a Squig, overwhelm their enemy's defences. Zodgrod Wartsnagga is an infamous Ork Runtherd who was perhaps the greatest Runtherd in Ork history before being expelled from the Warboss Ugulhard Duffgruntas' Chargerz, an extremely fundamentalist band of Snakebites who rabidly rejected the use of advanced technology. Power them up with the Monster Hunterz Stratagem, and for 2 Command points, these lumbering symbiotes can take down far larger prey.
