	Super-Cyboars are usually selected from the largest and most ferocious of a tribe's Warboars, and is almost always ridden by a Warboss. These mechanical creatures are fitted with layers of heavy armour plating, powerful bionic limbs, and razor sharp metal tusks. Each Super-Cyboar is equipped with a device commonly known as the "Da Big Red Knob". This button, when pressed, will flood the Super-Cyboar's body with stimms, causing it to hurtle forwards at reckless speeds. The Warboss will have this system linked up with all nearby Cyboars, causing them all to rush into a headlong charge with the simple press of a button.

	For reasons unbeknownst to anybody, the forests and hills of the Old World are infested with huge herds of particularly large and savage swine. It's possible that the answer may lie in a combination of their porcine resilience and their omnivorous diets; warboars may descend from herds of wild pigs that have fed on the flesh of dead [[beastmen]] or other [[Chaos]] beasts left to rot in the wilderness, and have managed to gain in size, strength and ferocity without picking up any more major or detrimental mutations. This same process may ultimately have culminated in the birth of the [[Razorgor]]s, which likely descend from swine that either glutted themselves on a particularly beastman-heavy diet or which were less resistant to mutation.
