Khorne Lord of Skulls

The Khorne Lord of Skulls is a super-heavy daemon engine, the upper body of a colossal Khornate warrior mounted upon grinding tracks and powered by the boiling blood of murderers. It grinds infantry to paste, hacks battle tanks apart with a single sweep of its cleaver, and serves the warbands that follow it as a rolling altar to the Blood God.

The Khorne Lord of Skulls is a monument to butchery given engine and blade, a super-heavy daemon engine forged in the black manufactories that lie hidden within the Eye of Terror. The most ambitious Warpsmiths labour to bind a mighty daemon of the Blood God into its colossal frame, shaping the machine into the likeness of a Khornate warrior's upper body set upon a set of massive tracks. Steam vents endlessly from its back, boiled from the blood of murderers held in vast pressure tanks, and every surface of the abomination is crusted with the skulls of those it has slain.

On the battlefield the Lord of Skulls is an avalanche of iron and malice. It grinds infantry to red paste beneath its tracks and hews battle tanks apart with a single sweep of its immense cleaver, while its cannons vomit brazen projectiles and gouts of burning ichor across the survivors. To the mortal cults and Khornate warbands that march in its shadow it is nothing less than a living altar, a rolling shrine to the Blood God whose passage sanctifies the ground in gore. Few weapons in any arsenal can halt such a thing once it begins its advance, and where it treads, whole battle lines are simply erased.
