CHAOS BATTLETOME
BEASTS OF CHAOS
Fear the endless wilds of the Mortal Realms, for therein lurk monstrous
things – twisted amalgamations of man and beast filled with a burning
desire to see the wonders of civilisation torn down and despoiled.
Born from the primordial power of Chaos and imbued with bestial
strength, these Beasts of Chaos can survive in the most inhospitable
places imaginable. There, they gather in immense herds, stirring
themselves to a frothing rage beneath looming totems before loping
forth in search of prey.
Once, the Beasts of Chaos ruled over vast and teeming territories.
The kingdoms of aelf, man and duardin alike cowered before their
terrifying might. The blasting of brayhorns seemed certain to herald
the death throes of enlightenment and the devolution of everything to a
primitive state of barbarism.
That was before the gates of the heavens were hurled open and the
armies of the God-King Sigmar returned to seize control of the realms
in the name of order and justice. For the first time in centuries, the
beastherds were sorely bloodied in battle, forced to retreat back into
the darkest corners of the wilds – those warped, festering places where
the corruption of Chaos has soaked deep into the lands.
Yet there are few things more deadly than a wounded predator. Those
who believe the power of the greatfrays broken need only stray into the
untamed wastes to find evidence of their delusion. These hinterlands
echo to the thundering hoofbeats of charging beastmen and the
maddening cries of mutant abominations. With axe and bloodied horn,
the Beasts of Chaos wage a guerrilla war against the nations of the
so-called ‘cultured’ races, taking bitter satisfaction from each city or
fortress they reduce to a corpse-strewn ruin.
When the brayhorns blare and the sound of stampeding hooves rumbles
like approaching thunder, the wise throw down their weapons and flee.
The rest will burn upon the altar of primal fury.

FACTION RULES
Every Citadel Miniature is a unique piece of the ever-evolving narrative of Warhammer. It is, then, an unfortunate
truth that we can’t continue to sell and support every model we’ve ever made indefinitely. As we make new models,
and new books to explore their background and rules, we have to stop producing and featuring some older models.
But just like many of you, we still treasure our collections of older Citadel Miniatures, and we still want to be able to
use them in games and forge glorious narratives on the tabletop!
Currently, the rules in this battletome are still legal for use in competitive play. However, on 1st June 2025, these rules
will move over to Warhammer Legends. This means that they will no longer be legal for competitive play. When that
time comes, we encourage you to continue to use your collection for casual play, and we will continue to support this
