Beasteed Riders

Coordinate attacks and control the melee

Their Secure the Position ability allows the Beasteed Riders to move up to 10 inches. When they engage an enemy, another friendly unit fighting the same target can immediately make an additional attack. They can also reposition 3 inches before pushing back an enemy unit they have defeated. This combination makes them particularly effective at supporting combined attacks and adjusting their position as the fight develops.

With Combat Control, the Beasteed Riders can move a friendly unit that is already engaged by 3 inches. This allows you to reorganise the melee or help drive enemy forces away from an objective. The ability also has a defensive application: when defending, it cancels 1 (Success) from the attacker, making these riders valuable when holding a contested position.

Heavy cavalry built to hold the line

With 5 (Wounds), the Beasteed Riders offer substantial resilience, helping them remain in the thick of the fighting and support nearby units. Their limited base movement is offset by their Long action, giving them additional reach when the battlefield demands it.

Costing 35 points, they are a strong supporting choice for Dwarf armies that rely on durability and coordinated frontline pressure. Rather than operating in isolation, they strengthen units already committed to combat and help your force maintain control of key objectives.
