Don’t miss the new Warhammer 40k rules and points for Ghazghkull Thraka and Makari from Psychic Awakening’s Saga of the Beast.
For weeks now, we’ve been seeing teasers left and right for everything coming in Saga of the Beast. While there have been some rumors and other mysterious pics that have emerged across the web, now we know the rules for Ghazghkull and Makari.
Prophecy of the Wolf Box Set $170

This set is one of the smaller ones we’ve seen in all honesty. The Orks are actually looking pretty decent with multiple Nob units and a massive big chungo Ghazghkull. However, the Space Wolves have a little more to be desired. Their entire half of the box is just some Infiltrators and Ragnar.
The Ragnar model is dope- but it just seems like a wee more value could’ve been had here.
Ghazghkull Full 40k Rules & Points REVEALED!
Spotted on Warhammer 40,000’s Facebook, we’ve got his datasheet. We saw it earlier, however now that it’s been dropped on one of GW’s official outlets we know that there won’t be any surprises…except for points.
Some key things to note about Ghaz’s new stats, however, is that GW took away his Infantry keyword, made him greater than 10 wounds, and now allows rerolls to Friendly Ork Infantry… Meaning you’ll be able to lead a Waaagh! from all different Clans.
Ghaz is 285 pts
Makari’s New Stats
Makari is going to be an incredibly useful tool for Orks with his small model and invuln save. He’ll be even more durable than a group of Nurglings and perfect for sitting on an objective. With character protection, enemy players will almost always be forced to punch him off an objective. laughs in 2++ invuln.
Makari is 65 pts
Question is now, will Ghazghkull be an auto-include for any Ork list?
