Slaves to Darkness – Gorebeast Chariot
9" 8 4+ 2 The chariots of Chaos are implements of crushing death. Forged from black iron, they are capable of attaining remarkable speed in spite of their bulk, converting gathered momentum into deadly force as they hurtle into the enemy ranks. The impact of a Chaos Chariot leaves a wake of corpses, many decapitated by swings of the double-handed greatblades carried by the champions riding in each conveyance. It is considered a great honour to make war from a chariot, for these constructs are as pulpits from which the murderous will of the Dark Gods can be enacted.
Only the most brutal of champions can hope to yoke one of the grotesque Gorebeasts to their will. These unnatural creatures lie somewhere between a monstrous simian and a Ghurish rokodile, and one swing of their fists can punch clean through a mortal’s chest. Once bludgeoned into submission, a Gorebeast’s strength allows them to pull a Chaos Chariot with relative ease. It is often more difficult to get the creature to stop, as they smash aside enemy regiments and barrel onwards in search of more foes to crush. | ||

7.0 Combat Range
Each model has a combat range that extends 3" horizontally from its base and any distance vertically from that circle to form a cylinder. The combat range of a unit extends 3" horizontally and any distance vertically from every model in that unit. Units from opposing armies that are within each other’s combat range and that are visible to each other are in combat with each other. When a unit that is not in combat enters the combat range of a visible enemy unit, it moves into combat.
