Experiment in the Flesh Laboratory
Select Clan Moulder in Immortal Empires. Throt’s Flesh Laboratory applies augmentations to units, changing how they fight. Repeated experiments can leave a subject unstable; recycling failed creations returns materials to the laboratory.
Build experiments around a purpose. Decide whether a unit needs to reach the enemy, hold an engagement or support a monster before adding another mutation. Retain dependable troops so one failed experiment cannot leave the army without a fighting line.
Move infantry and monsters together
Throt is a fighting monster handler rather than a spellcasting lord. His Creature-Killer weapon reflects his role capturing and controlling large beasts. Keep him close enough to support the main engagement without sending him ahead of the troops that protect him.
Clanrats can occupy enemy infantry while monsters attack from another direction. Stormvermin give the formation a more substantial guard. Avoid pushing every large creature through the same gap, where hostile troops can surround them together.
Stormfiends in the laboratory
Update 9.0 allows Throt’s Flesh Laboratory to apply monster mutations to Stormfiends. His lord effects and unique skill line were also extended to these units. Stormfiends come from Thanquol’s Lords of the End Times content, so this interaction requires access to those units as well as Throt’s campaign.
Master Mutator of Hell Pit
Throt the Unclean requires The Twisted and the Twilight. The 19 November 2020 FAQ calls him Master Mutator of Clan Moulder and one of the nine Lords of Hell Pit. The pack's story has him believe that consuming Ariel's magic can save him from starvation, with the Sisters of Twilight set against him. That story is the Warhammer II telling of the pack. An Immortal Empires campaign is a new war on top of it.
The Flesh Laboratory mutates units, and a failed creation can be recycled. He fights as a monster handler: Clanrats hold, and the beasts hit from another direction. Update 9.0 lets the laboratory put monster mutations on Stormfiends, which are units from Thanquol's pack. The Sisters of Twilight are the Wood Elf lords named against him in the 2020 FAQ.
