===Other Critters=== [[File:Beastmen-centrigor.jpeg|200px|thumb|right|A centigor, [[centaur]] in grimdark.]] Being that the Beastmen are all a bunch of horrible monsters, they have a pretty high tolerance for other horrible monsters. Along with the minotaurs, the Beastmen's ranks are supplemented by other creatures used for various tasks from beasts of burden to cavalry to shock troops to cannon fodder. * '''Warhounds''': Just like the ones starved and tamed by the warriors of chaos, but instead starved and tamed by Beastmen. Used for a fast and cheap screen. * '''Tuskgors''': What essentially look like warthogs, they're most often used to pull the herd's shitty chariots. * '''Razorgors''': Bigger, nastier, mutant tuskgors. They are either loosed in packs or used to pull chariots. Why the Beastmen use pigs as pack animals and eat horses instead of the other way around is a bit bizarre, but might have to do with how flighty horses can get around large, carnivorous animals and that pigs occasionally indulge in carnivorism and predation. * '''Centigors''': The torso of a Gor fused onto the body of a horse with three hooves per foot, by the looks of it. Totally ungainly and butt-hurt over it, they take to stealing beer, wine and spirits brewed and distilled by other races and getting shit-faced daily to forget that fact. They act as cavalry to the Beastmen, and are the setting's Centaurs. * '''Harpies''': Identical to Dark Elf harpies, may or may not be the Beastwomen with which the Beastmen procreate. Used primarily as flying shock troops. * '''[[Chaos Spawn]]''': Can be either heavily mutated Beastmen or just normal spawn, that which must not be named are goaded into battle... somehow. But this is chaos, so really anything can become a chFGHFGTYHAAAD{{BLAM}} * '''Jabberslythe''': Arguably the ugliest thing in all of WHFB. Said that not even the clearest pools will reflect its image, or maybe they just don't stay clear for very long. Either way, this is yet another giant powerhouse of a monster using its ugliness as a shock weapon to get the Beastmen's enemies to kill themselves. * '''[[Giant]]''': The warhammer giant is at the beast's disposal to jump up and down, yell at people and stuff them into its pants. {{clear}} *A type of amphibious beastmen known as "[[Lakemen]]" infest areas of Bretonnia. They appear as humanoid frog-fish with crab claws for hands, and all have at least one type of mutation furthering them from this basic form. Don't really get along with "normal" beastmen that well, either. * There is a tribe of beastmen in Ind that have tiger heads. Local humans worship them as holy spirits and as such said locals prostrate themselves, even as they get killed by the 'holy spirits'. They're called the Bengal, because if you didn't guess it the first time, Ind is Warhammer India. *The tribal societies of men, greenskin, and lizardmen in the Southlands have to deal with raids from the Apemen, a race of Beastmen that resemble humanoid gorillas. *The Ymir are a solitary race of Norscan Beastmen who are similar to Ogre Yetis. * Down in the Warhammer Antarctica, also known as "Southern Chaos Wastes", a pretty obscure Beastmen subrace called '''Beastfiends''' lives. They're actually non-human at all, instead being an unholy mix of Beast and [[Daemons of Chaos|Daemon]]. They're totally irrelevant and only appear in one [[Archaon]] novel. * In Naggaroth, a strange breed of scaled Beastman can sometimes be seen in the caves and crevasses. About the height of an Elf and covered head to foot in craggy scales, these creatures are primitive, and war amongst themselves with their stone axes and clubs. On occasion, when times are hard or when the call of Chaos from the north grows strong, they descend from the peaks to raid Dark Elf settlements and join with the armies of Chaos, and their numbers are such that it takes great military might to repel them. *'''Polar Warbears''' In "The Northlands", possibly the edge of Kislev and Norsca, lies Ice Mountain. Within, The Frozen Horror dwelled, served by an army of horned Yetis and a type of Polar Bear Beastman known as a Polar Warbear. They tended to wear light armor and wielded one handed weapons, mainly because they were humanoid Polar Bears and as such, didn't NEED heavy armor or heavy weapons, since Polar Bears can rip people apart with their bare paws.
