Beastmen Brayherds are one of the most savage and unpredictable armies in the world of Warhammer: The Old World. They are the Children of Chaos, unnatural hybrids of man and beast who dwell in the darkest forests of the Old World. Their sole purpose is to destroy civilization and usher in an age of primal chaos. Brayherd armies, forming the core of the Beastmen forces, are hordes driven by pure fury and a hatred for all things orderly. Led by mighty Beastlords and guided by the dark magic of Bray-Shamans, they pour out from the forests to pillage, burn, and slaughter in the name of their dark gods.
Models in the Beastmen Brayherds Army
The foundation of any Brayherd army is its units of Gors – strong and brutal infantry, supported by more numerous, though less-equipped, herds of Ungors. They form the bulk of the force, tasked with tying up the enemy in combat and overwhelming them with sheer numbers. The elite of the Beastmen forces are the Bestigors, clad in heavy armour and armed with great axes, capable of smashing through the toughest enemy lines. Within the army's ranks, you will also find specialized units like the swift and agile Centigors, as well as powerful monsters and charismatic heroes who bolster morale and lead the beasts to victory. Each model features a dynamic pose and a wealth of detail, making the experience of painting the army as rewarding as leading it on the battlefield.
How to Play a Beastmen Brayherds Army?
On the tabletop, the Beastmen Brayherds army is a force that relies on aggression, speed, and the element of surprise. Many units possess the Ambush special rule, allowing them to appear on the enemy's flanks or rear at a crucial moment in the battle. The playstyle encourages flanking, swift charges, and overwhelming the opponent with brutal force in close combat. This is an army that does not like to stand still and wait for the opponent's move. Instead, it seeks to close the distance as quickly as possible and begin the slaughter. If you enjoy a dynamic playstyle, unconventional tactics, and want to sow chaos among the enemy ranks, Beastmen Brayherds will be the perfect choice for you.
