Not that guy, but they literally are Broo, in the same way as early Elves were repurposed Melnibonean miniatures.

Glad you asked.

If you go back through the Citadel catalogs, and you find GW used to make minis for the Runequest series. The year after they lost the rights, the same models they were making as Broo were sold as Beastmen, and Beastmen lore/appearance is almost completely identical to Broo even after close to thirty years.

They are GW’s most shameless ripoff, which is funny because Beastmen are somewhat related to Skaven which is one of GW’s most unique creations.

The original models are yeah, but I thought the key point of Broo was their weird breed-with-inanimate-junk power.

Aren't skaven just a peculiar variety of beastmen?

The main characteristic of Broo is they are the unloved animal hybrid children of Chaos, filthy and savage and trying to bring down civilization. Same as Beastmen.

The rape matters as much as cannibalism, its just a bad end. People just fixate on it. Its mostly a way to handwave their numbers, like Orcs being fungus apes.

That’s just how they explained a horde of Broo that outnumbers the local humans for adventurers to kill. Its not important.

Or is not and.

Don't think so, however a kitbash of daemonettes and plaguebearers would probably work. Just greenstuff the extra teats into boils or a fat stomach.

Don't worry user, Cubicle 7 has stated that they're going to be focusing on sourcebooks on places they haven't covered before they just start reprinting books wholesale. We'll get Lizardmen and Elves soon enough, don't you worry :)

Is a chariot a good mount option for a Chaos lord?
