The massive and terrifying Dreadquake Mortar is amongst the largest and most devastating of the siege engines fielded by the Dwai Zharr. Akin, in appearance at least, to the bombards used by other races, the Dreadquake Mortar uses a vast boiler to generate steam pressure to fire its munitions. The sorcerous energies bound within these immense, volatile shells explode on impact, striking the battlefield like a hammer blow and causing untold devastation.
The Dreadquake Mortar is a huge war machine; a colossal mortar mounted upon an arcane steam carriage. The Mortar itself, designed by Tim Adcock and Keith Robertson, measures a mighty 8" long and towers over its four Chaos Dwarf crew figures and even its brutish, enslaved Ogre Loader.
Experimental rules for this mechanical behemoth are available to download from the Forge World website, and are taken from the forthcoming Warhammer Forge book Tamurkhan: The Throne of Chaos. The Chaos Dwarf Dreadquake Mortar is available to pre-order now for despatch in the week commencing 25th July.
