Amaxon Barbs (Razordon Hunting Pack) are a 
Lizardmen Regiment of Renown war beasts unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II with The Hunter and the Beast.
Recruitment[ | ]
Recruited with: Regiments of Renown Recruitment panel
Description[ | ]
Razordons are a species of predatory reptile covered with an array of large hardened spikes made from bone that project menacingly. As a defensive protection, this razor-sharp body armour serves to deter all but the most determined of creatures, and even the most monstrous of Lustria’s many apex predators will think twice before attacking a Razordon. The Razordon’s spines are not only a deterrent, however, they are also a deadly offensive weapon. By way of powerful muscle spasms, their spines can be discharged, shooting outwards in a deadly hail.
Attributes[ | ]
- Monstrous Missile Beasts
- ▲ Armoured: Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage.
- ▲ Armour-Piercing: The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
- ▲ Scaly Skin: Scaly skin or hides help to dampen or deflect the damage caused by missile weapons, increasing this unit's Missile Resistance.
- ▲ Poison Attacks: The poisonous attacks of this unit weaken the target's speed and damage and/or apply the Poison! debuff.

Difference from Razordon Hunting Pack[ | ]
- New Contact Effect: Poison! (Melee & Range attacks)
- Missile Resistance increased from 0 to 15%
- Cost increased from 800 to 1075 (SP & MP)
- Upkeep increased from 200 to 269
Strategy[ | ]
Razordons with poison melee and ranged attacks as well as 15% missile resistance. Overall, not hugely impactful considering there is so much poison on the Lizardmen roster. You are generally better off with standard Razordons.
