Throt the Unclean is a 
Skaven Legendary Lord unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II with The Twisted and the Twilight. In campaign, he leads 
Clan Moulder.
Description[ | ]
Throt’s status as one of Hell Pit’s most feared Lords is evident from his ability to create and lead to battle vast numbers of bloodthirsty creatures. Exercising more control over his minions than even the most adept Packmaster, it is no surprise that he is a forerunner in advancing Clan Moulder’s status, joining many Skaven battles accompanied by his packs of warbeasts. Whenever Throt personally joins a fight he wields Creature-Killer, a modified things-catcher of his own design that can grab and throttle even beasts the size of a Rat Ogre. Additionally, Throt carries a special whip made from Minotaur hide and cured in Troll digestive juices. Even the hunchbacked and mutated things that scuttle through the warrens of Hell Pit with senses dulled fear its stinging pain.
Attributes[ | ]
Support Specialist- ▲ 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.
- ▲ Anti-Large: Anti-Large: Anti-large units have an advantage against targets that are at least as large as a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against large targets or an attack that focuses on a very small area. However, some units are simply better against large targets because their attacks are slow and easy to dodge by skilled melee combatants.
- ▲ Regeneration: Regeneration allows a unit to heal while in battle. Fire is known to harm this healing process, so be warned that flaming attacks will cause more damage to units with Regeneration.

Strategy[ | ]
Throt the Unclean is a large (when mounted) regenerating monster who gives bonuses to many other mutant monsters in his army. This encourages somewhat of a different playstyle than the typical Skaven gun lines, though the player may wish to keep a core of weapon teams in Throt's army still. Because of all the monsters, Throt's army may be vulnerable to anti-large units such as spearmen spam or anti-large cavalry, so it pays to bring a few counters to such units but otherwise let your monsters run wild.
