Warhammer News: Sons of Behemat Rules and WarhammerTV Highlights

Today’s warhammer news brings giant-sized rules and a busy Warhammer TV week.

The Sons of Behemat are getting more personality on the table. Meanwhile, Warhammer TV is jumping between Cathay, C’tan, and growing armies. Together, these updates hit rules, lore, battle reports, and hobby motivation.

Sons of Behemat Get Smarter Stomping and Meaner Unit Tricks

The Sons of Behemat update shows that Gargants are not just walking damage profiles. Ma Maegran leads the preview as a strange witch who can make LITTLE Gargants mighty, either by adding mortal damage on wound rolls of 6 or replacing a destroyed BIG unit near them.

However, that second trick costs one model from the chosen unit, which feels perfectly cruel and very Behemat. Her Ancient Ghyrochs also matter, since they heal 3 wounds at the end of turns and can hit Damage 4 after charging with Maegran’s encouragement.

Meanwhile, Mega-Gargants now choose between Calamitous Sweep and Crushing Blow profiles. That gives them more reliable output into hordes or tougher targets.

King Brodd looks especially funny here, because his sweep profile throws out 20 attacks. Also, Mega-Gargants lose some Health, but the tradeoff is lower points and more objective presence.

Rock-hurlers add ranged flexibility through Drop, Toss, or Roll, gaining combat shooting, extra range, or improved accuracy.

Finally, Mancrushers get a once-per-battle dare with bonuses against Heroes and Monsters, extra movement, or +5 control. For more details, read the original Warhammer Community Sons of Behemat article.

Warhammer TV Adds Cathay Lore, C’tan Madness, and a New Tale of Four Gamers

Warhammer TV’s weekly lineup has a surprisingly broad spread. Loremasters heads east to Grand Cathay, covering its ancient dragon-ruled empire, the Great Bastion, key regions, military structure, and commanders. That is useful timing, especially with Cathay getting more attention across Warhammer media.

Meanwhile, the Battle Report looks gloriously ridiculous. Josh brings Necrons with the Nightbringer, Deceiver, and Void Dragon shards, while Milo counters with Tyranids including a Norn Emissary and Tyrannofex. Basically, it is god-fragments versus monster bugs, which is exactly why battle reports are fun.

Also, Tale of Four Gamers returns to the 41st Millennium with four growing armies: Genestealer Cults, Death Guard, T’au Empire, and Space Marines.

The article also reminds viewers that Warhammer TV now has over 700 episodes, plus app features, Warhammer Vault access, competitions, subscriber miniatures, and the Warhammer Yearbook. For more details, read the original Warhammer Community Warhammer TV article.

Summary and Final Thoughts

Overall, this is a strong slice of warhammer news for very different hobby moods. Sons of Behemat players get rules with more choices, more jokes, and more tactical pressure. Meanwhile, Warhammer TV keeps feeding lore fans, painters, collectors, and battle report addicts. However, the best part is how each update feels useful rather than decorative.
