Skin Wolves (Armoured)

are a monstrous infantry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer with Norsca (DLC).
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Cave of Dark Offerings
== Description ==
Many are the dark horrors of twisted flesh and nightmares made real that the Ruinous Powers have visited upon the world; few though are as strange as the Skin Wolves. Witch-cursed and Chaos-tainted, these creatures are half-feral and subject to savage appetites. They were previously men and women who carried within them the tainted blood of the mutated beast, which was somehow unleashed. Half-insane with insatiable hunger, a Skin Wolf has shredded flaps of skin and chunks of bloody gristle clinging to it, left behind by the unfortunate individual who the fully-formed humanoid wolf-thing ripped itself from. It is these clinging shrouds of skin that give the beasts their common name.
== Attributes ==
== Strategy ==
Armored Skin Wolves take the already stellar attributes of the Skin Wolves and give them significantly more armor. While not the most heavily armored unit in the game, this does give them a boost to survivability against ranged attacks as well as being swarmed by infantry. An all around strong and versatile unit, Skin Wolves are invaluable to a Norscan army.
