The centigors are the wild riders of the beastkin, monstrous things with the torso of a gor set upon the body of a great forest stag — and where the common herds crawl through the deep woods on foot, the centigors run. They range far beyond the treeline that pens their kin, out across the old forest roads and coach-routes of men, covering ground in a night that a warherd could not cross in a week. The brayherds are a besieging terror; the wildherds are a raiding one.
They strike drunk, fast, and laughing. Centigors brew a foul spirit they carry in stolen skins and swill even as they gallop, and they hit a waystation or a toll bridge or a laden caravan in a howling, reeling charge. There is no siege and no grim patience — only the sudden thunder of hooves, a few minutes of ruin, and the drumming of the herd already receding into the dark.
Even other beasts give the wildherds room, for a drunken centigor is as apt to gore an ally as an enemy, and its loyalty to any Beastlord lasts precisely as long as the wine and the plunder hold out. They serve the herd's chieftains as outriders when it suits them, running down fugitives and scouting the roads, then vanish on some wild road of their own — heard, dreaded, and gone before the dust has settled.
Beastmen Brayherds
Order of battle
The Centigor Wildherds field the units of the Beastmen Brayherds — a detachment from the roster:
Kindred formations
Other Beastmen Brayherds formations
Gor HerdsThe great mass of the brayherds — warbands of gors and ungors ruled by whichever chieftain carries the biggest horns and the bloodiest reputation. They are the herds that shadow the Empire's roads and forest villages, striking at dusk and melting away before the militia can muster. Every other terror of the dark woods gathers around their braying core.
Minotaur WarherdsHerds dominated by minotaurs, where doombulls rule through raw terror and the pecking order is settled in blood. A warherd on the march follows the smell of slaughter the way other armies follow banners. Even allied herds keep their distance once the bull-horned ones begin to feed.
