Spawn of Shadowgave

Spawn of Shadowgave is a monstrous infantry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer with the Call of the Beastmen DLC, exclusive to the .
== Notes ==
Morghur the Shadowgave can summon this unit using the Stave of Ruinous Corruption in Total War: Warhammer only. 
Since Total War: Warhammer II this unit was replaced by regular Chaos Spawn.
== Description ==
Some amongst the Children of Chaos are bestowed with an abundance of the Dark Ones' gifts, becoming creatures whose bodily forms epitomise nightmare and unreason. Such creatures might once have been great Chieftains who called upon the favour of the Dark Gods one time too many. They might have been Bray-Shamans who drew too deep of the power of Chaos, their forms blasted beyond recognition by the raw power of Magic. It may even have been one who strayed too close to Morghur, Master of Skulls, whose aura of transmogrification changes all. In some cases, the creature might simply have been born that way, in all likelihood slaughtering its beast-mother in the process. When the warherd goes to battle, the Chaos spawn come shambling from their lairs. The Beastmen have no control over a Spawn's actions, and it will behave in a largely unpredictable manner. The Spawn will move towards the enemy and crash flailing into its ranks; teeth, claws, and tentacles tearing men limb from limb in a shower of blood and ruination before it is finally put out of its misery.

== Strategy ==
Compared to Chaos Spawn, the Spawn of Shadowgave has less units and health, and weaker attack damage and defence. It makes up for the lesser statistics with poison attacks.
