Sabretusks are the feline-looking mountain predators with yellow-beige fur. They are deadly adversaries alone, with the speed of a warhorse, strength of a Cold One, reflexes of Skaven and brutal efficiency of a Witch Elf. However, they are pack hunters, together able to kill a mature Rhinox or even fell a whole Giant. Ogre Hunters keep them as pets, not just because of their respectable prowess, but also because their keen noses are great at locating creatures, especially the Cave-beast. 1,2
Should the Hunter go to battle, so will the Sabretusks. The Hunter will often release them mid-battle to prey on enemy troops on their own, the aforementioned qualitites doing a good service to Ogres; however, as a wild beast, the Sabretusk puts its own survival first and is even less likely to stay in a prolonged fight then dodgy Gnoblar Fighters.1
The Sabretusks can also be made to fight on a battlefield with a Scroll of Binding, which only happens during the Storm of Magic, due to the power required for it.2
