Khorne Bloodship

A Khorne Bloodship is a fearsome vessel to behold. It is a vast, towering war machine that grinds across the surface of the waves, its armoured prow snapping open and shut like some great beast's maw. The massed banks of its beaten bronze oars cut through the water at inhuman speed, and deep within its titanic hull great drums are beaten in incessant rhythms. As its jaw opens, whirling blades and pounding hammers spring forth, and great gouts of flame roar skywards.

The hull of a Bloodship bears the device of Khorne, the Blood God, on its bronze-plated hull. Ranks of Chaos Warriors cram the decks and boarding platforms, eager to rend the flesh of their enemies and bring skulls before their Lord. The coming of a Khorne Bloodship is a time of dread indeed.

Burning Skulls
The principle ranged weapon on a Bloodship is a huge bronze cannon that fires naphtha-coated skulls, usually culled from the fallen bodies of the ship's former victims. The skulls have also been filled with molten lead to add weight and create shrapnel upon impact. These terrifying missiles smash timbers and ignite sails.

Hammer of Khorne
The Hammer of Khorne is a vast skull-faced bronze ram, cast with a gaping fang-filled mouth. As the Bloodship approaches its prey, fire belches from the skull. Molten iron and lead spews from the jaws of the device, showering the target with searing liquid.

As the enemy crew writhe in agony, or cower under cover, the great skull crunches home, tearing apart timbers both above and below the waterline. The enemy is gripped by the awful rictus grin, and the ships are locked together as howling Chaos Warriors from the Bloodship hurl themselves upon the shattered enemy.
