| “ | The part-petrified form of the High Priest of Hashut betokens his status as the most ancient living Sorcerer of Zharr-Naggrund. | „ |
Astragoth Ironhand is a 
Chaos Dwarfs Legendary Lord unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer III with Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs. In campaign, he leads the Disciples of Hashut faction.
Description[]
The most feared figure within the great conclave of Hashut’s priesthood is the High Priest himself, Astragoth Ironhand. Once the most potent Sorcerer to walk the Plain of Zharr in a thousand years, his body now succumbs to petrification, an indication of his slowly waning powers. His legs having long ceased to work, Ironhand has constructed a mechanical device by which he is transported from place to place, and his completely petrified hands have been replaced by machinery grafted to his body. These contraptions were constructed by Astragoth's thralls to plans of his own design, combining the undoubted engineering skills of the Chaos Dwarfs with his own dark, twisted science.
Attributes[]
Wizard- ▲ Spellcaster: This unit can cast spells.
- ▲ Melee Expert: Melee Experts might have a very strong melee attack or melee defence, or high values in both. Some also have melee-focused skills like Charge Defence. Use them to counter other strong melee units. When facing them, it is best to take them out before they can enter melee.

Character Traits[]
Personal Trait[]
Mechanical: So entrenched in the dark sorcery of Hashut is he that more and more of this one's body parts have had to be substituted for mechanical replacements. In fact, he's probably more machine than Dwarf these days…
