Bale Taurus

is a monster unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer III with Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs.
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Fire Enclave
== Description ==
In form, no two Bale Tauruses are ever quite alike, and the mightiest of them are truly massive beasts that never die except by violence. All bear the overall semblance of a huge, winged, Daemonic-bull whose flesh burns with the intensity of a living furnace sufficient to wreath it in smoke and spark the ground afire beneath its hooves, and against which arrow and blade alike perish to cinders. To many, the burning wrath of the Bale Taurus is little more than a myth, for sustained by the fires of the Dark Lands, they seldom stray far from their lairs. But those that inhabit the Dark Lands know better...

Closely resembling a dragon in terms of its battlefield role, the Bale Taurus is a tanky SEM with few weaknesses and the main concern when fielding it is that it's repaying the significant cost of recruitment. Its breath attack has three bursts, and like dragon flame is best aimed from a unit's side rather than in front or above it for maximum effect. It needs to use its speed and wings to stay away from anti-large SEMs and elite spear units, but other than that it can be used against just about anything to good effect - most missile units will struggle to do much damage to it before it lands on top of them. Indeed, it can even quickly wear down anti-large SEMs so long as another unit has got their attention.
