Howling Ghetorix & A Writhing Hellmouth Coming To Hordes
June 24, 2016 by brennon
Privateer Press have shown off two more units coming your way in the near future for Hordes. We kick things off with Circle Orboros and the howling Ghetorix...
"A proud Tharn king transformed into one of the fiercest warpwolves the Circle has ever known, Ghetorix has a legendary appetite for violence. With savage brutality his axe and teeth bite into flesh and bone as he feeds on the meat of his victims. Spines erupt from his hardened skeleton, protecting him even as they punish his assailants."
Now that is an awesome model with the spirit of a Werewolf and the horns to give him an added 'feral' level. I love that he's covered in very little armour and instead they've gone for a full on wild look for him. The stance is fantastic too, howling at the moon.
Hellmouth Squirming
As well as this mighty beast we also have the Hellmouth for the Legion of Everblight. This is a writhing mass looking to drag hapless foes into its maw...
"Few of the dragon Everblight’s creations invoke as much fear as the blighted nightmare that is the hellmouth. Erupting from beneath the ground to unleash terror and consume flesh, this horrific subterrestrial beast uses its spiked tentacles to drag its hapless victims into its waiting maw."
It's nice to see the Legion looking towards more of the weird and wonderful with their creations. While this of course has a use on the tabletop, bursting out of the ground, I could see these making for a nice diorama as you have soldiers trying to escape its clutches.
What do you think?

Ghetorix is very nice addition for Furry Fan Club and Hellmouth looks really interesting.
They are all very good, and the new Ghetorix is far superior to the previous one.
I’m curious how the “Writing Hellmouth”s penmanship is? Does it write poetry or prose? Non fiction perhaps?
Ah yes – damn extravagant deleting on my part. Well, I think you’d be interested in his work on ballads @koraski – he/she/it is quite the wordsmith…
Oh wow… I’m really liking these latest ones ! Love the Hellmouth especially.
love them.
You gotta love the new Ghetorix! Such an improvement over the old version.
I’ll be adding him into my force. Just in time for a journeyman league starting up 😀
Gheto is a welcome addition since I’ve been painting up so new WWs. It will be interestiong to see the difference between my original and the new one
