====Lords and Heroes====

* Beastlord - The weakest melee lord of all you can field as chaos, but at the same time the cheapest one. He's quite good at dealing with anything except other characters. He's also pretty bad at being general thanks to his low leadership 8. If he is your army general then you're allowed to use ambush special rule (though wargor and shamans can do that too). Unlike Doombull or Shaggoth he can buy all magic items plus he is the only Beast character that gets upgraded to Level 4 wizard with Mark of Tzeentch (though somewhat expensive). If you want you can put him on a tuskgor chariot which boosts his melee output and survivability by a bit, just watch out for cannons if you do that.

* Doombull - Overall better fighter and better general than Beastlord. However Doombull can only take magic weapons which means that he doesn't wanna meet duelist characters either. If Doombull is your general then minotaurs become core which is great, you do give up ambush for that but it isn't that big deal unless you're playing against lots of artillery factions.

* Shaggoth Champion - Exactly same stats as regular Shaggoth but comes with Mark of Chaos Undivided which he can switch to any other god. He's pretty expensive for what he brings and biggest downside is that he takes up 1 lord 1 special and 1 rare slot which is bad. Additionally, unlike Doombull or Beastlord he doesn't bring any cool abilities with himself so yeah. Pretty bad.

* Great Bray-Shaman - Your typical level 3/4 wizard lord with access to lore of shadow, death and beasts. He and his hero version can only bear marks of Undivided, Nurgle and Slaanesh. What isn't typical about him is his unique wargear Braystaff which can either give him +2 to his save or work as great weapon in combat which means he's pretty good fighter for a wizard. But very, very bad general with leadership 7. If you want you can put him on tuskgor chariot.

* Wargor - Beastlord but hero version which can also be your BSB. Wargor have same leadership as Great Bray-Shaman so don't expect him to be a very good commander, but he's decent force multiplier for Beast/Bestigor herds.

* Bray-Shaman - Level 1/2 wizard hero with same lores as his lord version and can still equip braystaff. Like he's bigger version he's not bad melee combatant with WS4 and A2 meanig he can somewhat handle himself in melee combat, as long as you charge first.
