Vesver’s tongue caught in his mouth – it felt mangled and misshapen.
His eyes were still fixed on the grim throne, but where it had seemed a
moment ago to be a crude construction, its true shape was beginning to
form in his mind – broad panels of burnished gold, laced together with
threads of fine silver. The king sitting in this throne was not a savage
cannibal, but a being of pure radiance, dressed in flowing robes and
possessed of undeniable majesty. Such was the glory of this sovereign
that Vesver had to avert his eyes, and when he looked down he beheld
his own withered form and the tattered rags in which he was garbed.
Overcome with humility, he descended from his mount and dropped to
his knees, prostrating himself before this transcendent monarch.

‘Be still,’ spoke the Ghoul King, its voice at once calm and
commanding. ‘I shall soon put an end to your wretched existence.’

Formed from the bones of those killed by an abhorrant’s insane magic, a Charnel Throne exudes madness and

Morgaunt Grand Court

MORGAUNT GRAND COURT

Driven by an unshakable belief in their long-dead chivalric codes, Flesh-eaters of the Morgaunt Grand Court
surge out to devour all who encroach upon their domains. Their courts are amongst the oldest in the Mortal
Realms, and they gather mordants to their tattered banners in overwhelming numbers.

Flesh-eaters of the Morgaunt Grand Court believe
themselves denizens of lush and fertile lands, and see all
who encroach upon their territories as savage marauders.
In their madness they hold to principles of nobility and
honour, defending the weak and innocent whilst fighting
to topple those they perceive as wicked. But in truth, the
Morgaunt domains are vast corpse-strewn wastelands
through which massed packs of Ghouls scamper,
running down and butchering all those who are not
under the sway of their abhorrant’s delusion.

The Morgaunt nobility display a fanatical devotion
to the Ghouls that follow them. Courtiers fight with
unflagging vigour when surrounded by their subjects,

amidst their troops. So too do the teeming throngs of
lesser mordants look to the larger and more crazed
Flesh-eaters as exemplars, and in the presence of these
vaunted figures they tear into their enemies with savage
abandon. The grim charisma that the Morgaunt courtiers
and abhorrants possess sees cannibalistic wretches
drawn from far and wide to join their armies. Even in
the thick of battle, fresh packs of Ghouls continue to
scrabble towards the maddened calls of the nobility – an
unending flow of claws and fangs with which to butcher
even the largest opposing force.

Hollowmourne Grand Court

HOLLOWMOURNE GRAND COURT

The Hollowmourne Grand Court is formed of the wretched descendants of heavily armoured and mounted
knights from Chamon. Their numbers are replete with hulking mordants who charge headlong into battle,
eviscerating their enemies with brutal ease before gorging themselves on the mangled corpses.

The madness of the Hollowmourne Grand Court is
fuelled by a gnawing sense of unfulfilled duty. The
ancestors of these Flesh-eaters swore oaths to their
emperor to find the relics he buried across the Mortal
Realms, and to keep them from the clutches of Chaos.
The nature and location of these relics has long since
been lost, but the Hollowmourne courts still rove from
realm to realm, desperately seeking the vaults in which
these treasures are buried and slaughtering all those who
stand in their path.

Before their descent into insanity, the Knights of the
Hollowmourne were mighty and steadfast warriors. Clad
in Chamonic plate and borne to battle on horseback,
they swept aside opposing armies of far greater size
with their devastating charges. During the Age of
Chaos, when their crusade to find the hidden relics
was shattered, the knights were forced into acts of
utter depravity – eating first their peasant servants and
eventually even their faithful mounts. In their deranged
state of mind, they see themselves as still crusading,
riding out in armoured columns to cut down those who
would despoil the vaults that they seek. The largest and
most ferocious mordants lead the charge, their bodies
having grown to enormous proportions from feasting on
the flesh of their enemies.

Blisterskin Grand Court

BLISTERSKIN GRAND COURT

Charred and blistered bodies fill the sky as winged Flesh-eaters of the Blisterskin Grand Court flock to battle.
Having risen from the ashes of a sun-worshipping empire, these zealous cannibals now terrorise Aqshy and
beyond, leaving trails of devastation in their wake as they spread their twisted beliefs.

With the speed of the screaming desert winds of the
Flamescar Plateau, the armies of the Blisterskin Grand
Court surge towards their foes. Though they hail from
Aqshy, they see the Realm of Light as the most sacred
of lands, and in their deranged minds they seek to
proselytise their neighbouring kingdoms, preaching the
enlightenment of Hysh to all they encounter. Yet in truth
they spread only insanity and horror, and instead of
imparting wisdom, a visitation by these reeking wretches
will see a realm swiftly ground to dust.

In their madness, the Blisterskin royalty still see
themselves as priests and priestesses, guiding their
faithful subjects in worshipping the Hyshian sun. The
most pious mordants and courtiers are gifted with
leathery wings with which they can climb high in the
sky, allowing them to draw closer to the sun and receive
more of its glorious light. Those so blessed are viewed as
warrior-saints, and are followed by droves of mordants
as they sweep across the lands. Even the mightiest walls
cannot hold back the myriad winged cannibals that
descend from the skies, and those defenders that are not
devoured outright are butchered and left to rot in the
blazing heat of the sun. The Blisterskin then move on to
their next victims, believing they are leaving behind a
city of converts.

Gristlegore Grand Court

GRISTLEGORE GRAND COURT

The bestial Flesh-eaters of the Gristlegore Grand Court started their hunts in Ghur before preying upon lands
across other Mortal Realms. In their minds’ eye they see themselves as exemplars of tranquillity, but in truth the
Gristlegore royalty are savagery made manifest.

The Gristlegore courts were once kingdoms where
introspection and finding balance with one’s
surroundings were the highest of virtues. Amidst the
wilderness in the Realm of Beasts, where animals, plants
and even the land itself are in constant and savage
competition, the peoples of these kingdoms sought
peace and harmony. The royal families honed the art of
swordplay so that, should violence enter their domains,
they could swiftly best any enemy and save their subjects
from the horrors of war. But even the peerless martial
skill of these royals could not hold back the atrocities of
the Age of Chaos, nor the madness that was to follow.

The nobility of the Gristlegore Grand Court still believe
themselves to be harbingers of peace, who resort to
violence only when absolutely necessary, but this could
not be further from reality. Abhorrants and courtiers
charge without restraint towards whatever enemies they
see, ripping organs from bodies and severing limbs as
they thrash at their foes. Where once they would fast
for long periods to centre themselves, they now gorge
constantly on the meat and bone of those they kill. Packs
of mordants sometimes scrabble in their wake, lapping
up the blood that spills to the ground, but only the
monstrous Zombie Dragons and Terrorgheists are able to
match the frenetic pace at which the nobility slaughters.

CHALICE OF USHORAN

Believed to be a manifestation of the sacred cup held by Ushoran, this bone-wrought goblet is continually filled with
the blood of those slain in its presence. When the gore inside overflows, the Flesh-eaters upon whom it slops are
bestowed with unnatural vitality, their most grievous wounds healing and their dead rising to fight once more.

Imparted with grisly vigour by the insane magics of the abhorrants, the undead beasts of a Corpsemare Stampede

The death magic of the Flesh-eater Courts is augmented by the madness of the abhorrants who wield it. The Corpsemare Stampede, Chalice of
Ushoran and Cadaverous Barricade are amongst the most powerful manifestations of this insanity.

PITCHED BATTLE
PRPOITFCIHLEEDSBATTLE PROFILES

The table below provides points, minimum unit sizes and battlefield roles for the warscrolls and warscroll
battalions in this book, for use in Pitched Battles. Spending the points listed on this table allows you to take a
minimum-sized unit with any of its upgrades. Understrength units cost the full amount of points. Larger units
are taken in multiples of their minimum unit size; multiply their cost by the same amount as you multiplied their
size. If a unit has two points values separated by a slash (e.g. ‘60/200’), the second value is for a maximum sized
unit. Units that are listed as ‘Unique’ are named characters and can only be taken once in an army. A unit that
has any of the keywords listed on the Allies table on its warscroll can be taken as an allied unit by a Flesh-eater
Courts army. Updated February 2019; the profiles printed here take precedence over any profiles with an earlier
publication date or no publication date.
