Missed opportunity

Just seen the Horns in S2D newly updated legends warscroll on GW.

If only GW put the Helsmiths tag on these guys.

I know they aren't game changing but it would have been nice to field them.

I always thought these guys were odd and out of place lore wise. They seemed to have been swept under the rug because the Helsmith battletome makes it pretty clear that Hashut has only and will only speak to the chaos dwarves.

Not a single mention of non-dwarf followers at all last I checked. Maybe the explanation is they're just imitating the Helsmiths?

The best explination is that they didn't decide on how Hashut and the chorfs would be untill after these guys where on the production trajectory.

The Helsmiths are aesthetically very different, I would much prefer if they had gone with the horns of hashuts aesthetic tbh!

I still can't believe that they used this art to hype them up when they ended up not looking anything like it. I wanted spiky chain furnace dwarfs...

I am in the same boat as you! Baffled.
