	*''Fighter Commentary''-This Warband's only leader so you ''MUST'' take him. Luckily, he's a pretty solid beatstick. Good movement with a solid number of attacks with a great damage profile makes him a melee powerhouse. He's pretty decently costed for what he can bring to the table. As discussed above, he's not the most durable of faction leaders and the Warband's lack of overall defensive capabilities don't help him in this regard. His ability is cheap but is attached to a condition. Given this, he's actually a very good chaff killer. Send him in to take out low durability targets, kill a few, and then use '''[Double] All-Out Attack''' to get out of harm's way. You can also make great use of '''[Double] Savage Fury''' to make his guerilla-style, hit-and-run tactics even more effective. Against higher-tier Fighters, he won't last long. Avoiding any type of prolonged combat is ideal for him.		*''Fighter Commentary''-This Warband's only leader so you ''MUST'' take him. Luckily, he's a pretty solid beatstick.

The First Fang offers two things this Warband really needs-a solid ranged attack option and a movement disrupting ability. His Harpoon has a respectable range and a surprisingly solid damage profile, making him a prime target for either '''[Double] Savage Fury'''. If you get lucky with rolls you can easily take out the chaff and even some mid-tier Fighters in one activation. The positional usages for '''[Triple] Harpoon Snag''' were discussed above.

	*''Fighter Commentary''-The single best damage dealing model in this Warband. He costs as much as a Heart-Eater and ~~shares the same~~ profile--only he has an additional 3" of movement which is downright nasty for a model with these stats. While the Heart-Eater is more self-sufficient with his '''[Double] All-Out Attack''' ability, the Prowler has just as many ways to dish out the pain. He can be given an extra attack from a Beastspeaker with '''[Double] Beastmaster''' so long as he is within 4" of her. He can also give himself '''[Double] Savage Fury''' or '''[Quad] Unleash the Beast''' if you really have to kill something. His high movement also allows him to get in and out of combat more easily than anyone else in this Warband. If you have the opportunity to use '''[Triple] Pounce''' you should always take it. When using '''[Triple] Pounce''' make sure the value is at last 3+ against chaff fighters and 4+ against higher-tier units. Remember that damage from '''[Triple] Pounce''' is a flat amount, and ignores a targets Toughness, meaning that if you can get it on a 5-6 and follow it up with an attack you can pretty much guarantee a kill on models with 10 or less wounds. Simply put, Prowlers are the most versatile and dangerous Fighter in this warband.		*''Fighter Commentary''-The single best damage-dealing model in this Warband.

	*''Fighter Commentary''-An average fighter with some above-average movement. Her whip is a range 4" weapon, which is a weird range in Warcry and extends her threat range while allowing her to stay out of harms way. It's a shame that her damage potential is so lackluster compared to every other fighter in the army. The real reason you bring her is for her '''[Double] Beastmaster''' ability. With it, she can grant a Prowler within 4" (or any other Chaotic Beast that's a part of the Warband) an extra out-of-activation attack, which is one of the Warband's defining combos. Have the Prowlers charge ahead and bring her up behind them. She can park behind the Prowlers, hand out '''[Double] Beastmaster''' and whip the shit out of any poor bastard who is still left alive after the Prowler has had their way with them.		*''Fighter Commentary''-An average fighter with some above-average movement.

Yet for a mere 5 pts. more you can get two Plains Runner. This version wields the Axe, which trades a higher number of attacks for an increase in strength (Strength 4). Given the prevalence of toughness 4 Fighters in Warcry, he really isn't all that impressive. You're mostly better off taking another Plains Runner or saving points for another Prowler rather than grabbing a Preytaker. Which sucks, because their models are very manly.

They aren't going to be doing much damage, but for their points costs you shouldn't expect them ~~too~~. Piling cheap bodies is a Warhammer tactic as old as a Plains-Runner's crusty loincloth. You are almost always better off taking more Plains-runners over Preytakers as it will result in more wounds, more models, more activations, etc. Apart from that, these are this ~~warbands~~ standard chaff units.

			* '''[Reaction] Brute Resilience''': A fighter can make this reaction when they are targeted by a melee attack action but before the hit rolls are made. Subtract 1 from the damage points allocated to this fighter by each hit from the attack action (to a minimum of 1). (Faction-wide Ability)
			**''Ability Commentary'' -This isn't all that great. Most of the time, the Counter universal reaction is going to be better. It doesn't affect the very common one-pointer damage (due to a minimum of 1), and it doesn't affect Critical Hits, as crits are defined separately from regular Hits. The only time I would see using this over Counter is if a model was facing a lot of 2+ damage normal hits and really needed to survive to hold or contest an objective at all costs.
	* '''[Double] Savage Fury''': Add 1 to the Move characteristic of this fighter for the next move action they make this activation, and add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of the next attack action they make this activation. (Faction-wide Ability)		* '''[Double] Savage Fury''': Add 1 to the Move characteristic of this fighter for the next move action they make this activation, and add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of the next attack action they make this activation. (Faction-wide Ability)
	**''Ability Commentary''-A very powerful ability which compliments their already high movement and attack values. This ability basically combines the Universal Abilities, '''[Double] Rush''' and '''[Double] Onslaught''' into one ability. You'll find this is useful for a number of situations, both offensively and defensively. There is absolutely no reason to ever use either '''[Double] Rush''' or '''[Double] Onslaught''' on their own, as the use of this will grant both effects.		**''Ability Commentary''-A very powerful ability which compliments their already high movement and attack values.

You'll find this is useful for a number of situations, both offensively and defensively. There is absolutely no reason to ever use either '''[Double] Rush''' or '''[Double] Onslaught''' on their own, as the use of this will grant both effects. Actually, as of 10/05/2022, Savage Fury only affects the "next move action made in the activation" and the "next attack action made" in one activation. If you move up to an enemy and want to attack, Savage Fury is ideal. If you want to do two moves though, Rush is better as it affects both actions in an activation. If you want to spend both actions standing and attacking, Onslaught is better as it adds to both attack actions.
	* '''[Double] All-out Attack''': A fighter can use this ability only if an enemy fighter has been taken down by an attack action made by them this activation. This fighter makes a bonus move action or a bonus attack action. (Heart-Eater ability)		* '''[Double] All-out Attack''': A fighter can use this ability only if an enemy fighter has been taken down by an attack action made by them this activation. This fighter makes a bonus move action or a bonus attack action. (Heart-Eater ability)
	**''Ability Commentary''-A standard ability which grants either an extra move or extra attack after the Heart-Eater kills an enemy. This can be very useful given its cost, as most factions who have access to a similar ability are typically activating it on a '''[Triple]'''. It can be useful for both moving and attacking, but it is perhaps best used defensively as a means to get out of threat range for an enemies follow-up activation (assuming your Heart-Eater is in danger of being attacked, of course). Worthwhile for its cost.		**''Ability Commentary''-A standard ability which grants either an extra move or extra attack after the Heart-Eater kills an enemy.

Naturally, they are constantly seeking the biggest predator to kill and eat.

	To them, this apex hunter is none other than Archaon himself. This is really interesting, because it means that the Untamed Beasts may actually have the most pure understanding of what [[Chaos]] actually is, even more so than Archaon himself. Being haters of all things civilized, their typical form of 'armor' is some poor animal's hide wrapped to cover even ~~harrier~~ genitals. Their weapons are made out of the bones of beasts they've defeated and the only metal they sport is metal that they've plundered of the corpses of defeated enemies (apart from the uniform-issue snazy brass logo they've got on their belts, but branding is the most important thing). They are essentially the Chaos-worshipping human version of [[Bonesplitterz\|these guys]]. They are also [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodybuilding ABSOLUTELY, TOTALLY, UNABASHEDLY PEAK '80'S BODY-BUILDING CULTURE, RIPPED TO THE MAX]. We're talking 80s-prime [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdVCfDioTcY Arnold] aesthetics - [[Archaon]] is sooo sick of Khornate mass monsters with their Synthol and Palumboism. On the table-top their playstyle matches their lore. Like any good predator, they are fast-moving, hard-hitting and devastating when they get the jump on their enemies, but prolonged combat will see them eventually worn-down.
