Chaos Dwarf Bale Taurus
The grim Dark Lands where the Chaos Dwarfs make their home are a dread and forbidding place, and birthing ground for many strange and unnatural creatures. None, however, are more sought after by the Dawi Zharr than the dread Bale Taurus of the Volcanic Heights.
The grim Dark Lands where the Chaos Dwarfs make their home are a dread and forbidding place, and birthing ground for many strange and unnatural creatures. None, however, are more sought after by the Dawi Zharr than the dread Bale Taurus of the Volcanic Heights.To the Chaos Dwarfs, this mighty beast’s resemblance to their terrible god Hashut, the Father of Darkness, is no mere coincidence. Taking the form of an immense, winged daemoniac bull, its flesh burns with the intensity of a furnace, wreathing it in smouldering shadow and sparking the ground afire beneath its hooves.
None but the highest servants of Hashut and the most powerful of Fire wizards can hope to break and master these hellish bull-monsters, and even then it is only by means of the most complex and dangerous magics that a Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer can ride such a beast without succumbing to their incinerating heat and voracious appetite.

The Chaos Dwarf Bale Taurus, designed by Steve Whitehead, is a truly enormous and incredibly detailed full resin beast, and it is available to pre-order now for despatch in the week commencing 26th September. This monstrous creature, bedecked with armour plates and the infernal sigils and icons of Hashut, is fantastically dynamic and makes for an awe-inspiring centrepiece to a Chaos Dwarfs army. Rules for this creature are available in the forthcoming Warhammer Forge book Tamurkhan: The Throne of Chaos.
Skaven Warlord on Brood Horror
The bloated terror that is a Skaven Brood Horror is highly prized by Clan Moulder, and these cannibalistic creatures are sometimes traded with the wealthier Skaven Clans for many thousands of slaves and warp-tokens.
The towering beasts are then used as a war-mount by especially powerful or ostentatious Skaven warlords; after all, what better way to protect one’s position of power than with such a massive and eternally-hungry beast.

Games Day UK – 25th September 2011
With the biggest event of the year approaching, here at Forge World we’re busily finishing masters and painting models for Games Day UK, held at the N.E.C in Birmingham on Sunday 25th September. Tickets are selling fast but there are still some left, so if you’ve not yet bought one either pop in to your local Games Workshop Hobby Centre, call 0115 914 0000 or visit www.games-workshop.com.
There’s still time to place a reservation order for Games Day UK. As with our other UK shows this year, we’ll be taking payment in advance for these orders so that it’s much quicker and easier for you to collect a reservation at Games Day. A reservation order is the best way to ensure that we have exactly what you want at Games Day, including our Show Only figures, so please call the Forge World Customer Service team on 0115 900 4995 to place your reservation – we must receive these by 15th September.

Our aim with this change is to make collecting your reservation quicker, faster and easier than before. As the collection area will be totally separate to our main Sales stand, all you’ll need to bring with you to collect your reservation will be the e-mail you’ll receive in the week leading up to Games Day. As always, you’ll be able to collect your reservation at any point throughout the event, leaving you free to enjoy the rest of Games Day.
