Embrace the power of the Waaagh!

Driven quite mad by the thrumming power of Gorkamorka, the Bonesplitterz hunt the great beasts of the mortal realms in order to slay them and absorb the spiritual might of their god, which they believe is bound within the creatures’ bones. Led into battle by crazed Wurrgog Prophets, these savage orruks are wildly unpredictable and difficult to best in combat – what they lack in organisation and tactics they make up for in toughness and sheer single-mindedness. The boys of the Bonesplitterz swarm over the enemies’ ranks, tearing into them and chewing out their hearts with anarchic abandon.

This 112-page hardback Battletome features:

Exclusive gaming content:

  • three Battleplans detailing epic battles, showing you how this wild band of orruks fights;
  • Artefacts of Power: artefacts crafted from the corpses of the Bonesplitterz’ prey, usable by their heroes;
  • Lore of the Savage Waaagh!: powerful magic, both defensive and offensive, specifically for Bonesplitterz wizards;
  • nine Warscroll Battalions, collections of miniatures who gain special abilities when combined.

All you need to start collecting Bonesplitterz:

  • tips for collecting their miniatures – what sort of army do you want to play? How do you want to paint them? We’ll show you some great ideas;
  • an overview of the Bonesplitterz and their savage Waaagh! across the mortal realms – Who are they? Why do they fight? Who is their boss?

Savage Orruks $50

99120209036_BonesplitterzBoyz09

Sometimes, orruks from the various clans in the mortal realms just sort of… wander off. Often, they end up in a Gob Rukk of the Bonesplitterz; they’ll abandon complexities of life like metal weapons and clothing, cover themselves in scrawled tattoos and lash together a basic flint spear. This might make them sound a bit primitive and weak – this is far from the case, as Savage Orruks, enthralled and driven by Waaagh! energy, band together in their hundreds to become an unstoppable avalanche of maddened green flesh, rolling across the realms and ruining everything in their path.

99120209036_BonesplitterzBoyz08 99120209036_BonesplitterzBoyz06 99120209036_BonesplitterzBoyz07

This multi-part plastic kit contains all the parts necessary to assemble 20 Savage Orruks, armed with either chompas or stikkas and bone shields. Optionally, they can be assembled as Savage Orruk Morboys, with chompas and toof shivs, or Savage Orruk Arrowboys carrying Stinga Bows. There are options for a Boss, Bone Totem and Skull Thumpa, and the kit comes supplied with 20 Citadel 32mm Round bases.

Savage Boarboys $50

99120209035_BonesplittazBoarBoyz09

haring a bond that goes back to the Age of Myth, Bonesplitterz and war boars can often be found barrelling into the ranks of the foe at high speed, eager to be the first amongst them to spill blood. Specialising in hit-and-run attacks, they never linger where the enemy can strike back – speed is of the essence. Their boars are fed on the bones of the most powerful beasts the Bonesplitterz can slay, although of course there is rather a lot of bickering and competition amongst their orruk riders over which monsters’ bones make for the most brutal mounts.

This multi-part plastic kit contains all the components necessary to assemble ten Savage Boarboys, armed with boar stikkas and boneshields. Included are options for a Boss, Boar Thumpers and a Boar Totem, and the whole kit can be assembled optionally as Boarboy Maniaks, armed with two chompas.

Maniak Weirdnob $26.75

99800209024_BonesplittazWierdnob01

Even the most fierce intellect would eventually submit to the power of Gorkamorka. Maniak Weirdnobs never really had much in the way of strong will, so their descent into gibbering madness is particularly spectacular. These Bonesplitterz are sometimes created when a Wardokk kills a creature with an especially ferocious spirit, then fashion a bone stave to contain the creature’s soul. As the Maniak Weirdnob barrels into battle on his feisty warboar, the souls trapped in this stave causes incredible animalistic rage to consume the Maniaks around him – already quite cross, they are inspired to brutal acts of savagery by the Weirdnob’s strange magic.

This kit contains all the parts necessary to assemble one Maniak Weirdnob, armed with a bonebeast staff and riding a ferocious warboar. Comes supplied with a Citadel 75mm Oval base.

Wurrgog Prophet $19.25

99800209025_BonesplittazWurrgog01

Allegedly a direct conduit to Gorkamorka, whose words spill forth with wild abandon, Wurrgog Prophets are regarded with awe and reverence by the Bonesplitterz. Quite, quite mad, they see signs of the Great Green God everywhere, and each of these signs is screaming ‘Waaagh!’ directly into their faces. Their madness is equalled by their drive, which when combined with their powerful if sometimes indiscriminate magical ability makes them the respected leaders of their clan. Sometimes their spells will rain massive green fists upon the foe, sometimes they will crack the ground itself; more than one battle has been swung by the wild-eyed intervention of a Wurrgog Prophet.

This kit contains the parts necessary to build a Wurrgog Prophet, unpredictable and powerful wizard of the Bonesplitterz. Armed with a ju-ju staff and flint knife, face hidden behind a beast mask, they come supplied with their very own Squiggly Beast and a Citadel 32mm Round base.

Wardokk $13

99800209026_BonesplittazWardokk01

Attendants, advisors and bodyguards to the Wurrgog Prophet – and successors, when he invariably blows up – the Wardokks are unhinged leaders of bands of Morboys. Performers of wild rituals that channel Waaagh! energy, they magnify the power of the Prophet, stirring up so much incredible magic that they can improve the effects of spells, protect their chums and even reattach the arms of mangled boys, making them good as new.

This kit contains all the parts necessary to assemble one Wardokk, armed with a bonebeast stikk. Comes supplied with a Citadel 32mm Round base.
