The Doomwheel is a monstrous war machine of the Skaven, a colossal rolling wheel of wood, iron, and crackling warp-lightning propelled by frenzied rats running within its frame. Devised by the mad engineers of Clan Skryre, it careens across the battlefield with no reliable means of steering, as likely to crush allies as enemies.
At the heart of the contraption sits a warlock-engineer who cranks a warpstone-powered generator, unleashing arcs of green lightning that leap from the spinning wheel to blast anything nearby. The faster the wheel turns, the more lethal and unpredictable its discharges become, and the more likely it is to overload catastrophically.
Despite its lethal unreliability, the Doomwheel embodies the reckless ingenuity of the ratmen, a terrifying juggernaut that scatters foes in panic even as its own pilot prays not to be hurled from his seat or reduced to ash by his own invention.
