Today it's time to have a look at the Skorne faction in the new Gargantuans book. These pain loving psychopaths seem like an incredibly strong faction now with all their new gear, but will they be the strongest of the new stuff from the book, or will the Legion or one of the other factions pull it out of the bag?
It might be Gargantuans Week, but today the guys are having a look at what they think are the three best battle engines for Hordes, and our special mystery (well not really a mystery because you know you can win it) is the Woldwrath.
It's day two of our Hordes Gargantuans week and myself, Mike and Kev move on to the Circle Orboros faction in the new book. This is shaping up to be my favourite section of the book, with gigantic Constructs and fantastic looking multi wound infantry.
