The Salzenmund Soul-Eaters

The Salzenmund Soul-Eaters are an enemy Cygor unit encountered as part of the Monstrous Arcanum in a Norsca campaign in Total War: Warhammer I and II.
== Description ==
Perhaps the scariest of all giant humanoid monster species, Cygors are some of the angriest creatures to roam the Old World. The Salzenmund Soul-Eaters are a pair of Cygors even bigger and stronger than others of their kind, making them among the most difficult monsters to hunt. Their cycloptic eye sees not only the Winds of Magic, but also dampen their use for most spellcasters in their presence.
== Attributes ==
* ↑ 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.
* ↑ No Forest Penalty: Large units do not suffer penalties when moving through forest, simply smashing through the undergrowth instead.
* ↑ Special Ranged Weapon: This unit has a special missile attack with limited ammunition, which can be very useful when initiating attacks.
* ↑ Causes Terror: This unit can cause terror, making its melee target rout for a short time. Units that cause terror are immune to terror and fear themselves.
== Abilities ==
=== Passive Abilities ===
* Soul Eater
* Wounds
== Strategy ==
A pair of Cygors whose ranged attack breaks apart on impact into several several other projectiles, dramatically increasing their splash damage. Tie them down in melee with anti-large units to prevent their devastating ranged attacks.
