Ungor Herd

Ungor Herd is a Beastmen melee infantry unit in the Beastmen Total War: Warhammer downloadable content. Though mocked by stronger beasts, Ungors nevertheless instil fear as they charge the foe down.

Description
Ungors (meaning 'no-horns' in the Beastmen tongue) are not as strong or robust of frame as the Gors, but they more than make up for it in sheer malevolence. They are physically smaller than other Beastmen and their horns, if they have any, are less impressive and numerous. While Gors may have long and spectacular horns as deadly as any sword, Ungors usually have short prongs or horn buds sprouting from their skulls, not recognisable as those of a goat or any other type of beast acknowledged by the Gors. Due to this, they are not considered to be 'proper' Beastmen. The race of men, on the other hand, does not draw such distinctions. To them the Ungors are just as horrible, horns or no, for they are twisted aberrations of nature that live to murder and despoil all that is good and wholesome. Ungors are considerably more dextrous than their fellows, their sinewy hands able to carve runes, build wooden structures, and fix and bind the weaponry of their clumsier Gor brethren. So it is that Ungors fulfil a vital role in the society of the tribe, for without them, the herd would soon be bereft of weaponry. Most Ungors take to the field in large herds, arming themselves with stout spears with which to impale their prey and carrying crude shields to protect their grotesque pot-bellied bodies. In battle, Ungors are bullied into a semblance of order by the largest of their number, known as Halfhorns, who seeks a position in the battle line from which they can inflict the most pain and suffering upon the foe.

Strategy
The Ungor Herd is an excellent unit for when the Beastmen need to field wide armies. As a general rule, the Beastmen want a frontline just large enough to occupy most of the enemy army and just durable enough to allow their flanking units to wreak havoc on the backline. This unit provides stellar coverage against factions that deploy large, fodder-based compositions like the Skaven or Vampire Counts.
