    Besides the Brazen Bull of Phalaris, I think Taurox may have also taken inspiration from the Colchis Bulls of Greek mythology, specifically from Jason and the Argonauts. These were two immense bulls with bronze hooves and bronze mouths through which they breathed fire. Jason had to battle the bulls as part of his quest to retrieve the Golden Fleece.

      His name prolly comes from the combination of Taurus and Aurochs (not sure if I spelled that right) which were massive bulls of Europe that were hunted to extinction awhile back. The nazis tried to breed them back into existence but did it in a dumb way which wasn’t really accurate but it lead to the Heck’s Cattle

    Ah Taurox one of the most fun campaigns in TWW2 and what a return to form for the Beastmen... is what I would say if they had any form to return to other than being shit till this DLC dropped. Anyway while Taurox was killed in the End Times siege of Altdorf by Markus Wulfhart who then kinda walked off and wasn't heard from again, Taurox is actually mentioned in Age of Sigmar kinda of. In that setting the Beastmen, specifically the ones that worship Khorne, believe in the Brass Bull which rampages in the sky. Also random note, Skarsnik is also kind of in AoS as a referenced minor moon that circles around the Bad Moon that the Grots (copyrightable goblins) worship so thats neat.

    I feel like if the trilogy of TW fantasy does well enough CA could do a step back and say the end times was one of the many possible futures of that universe without many hitches lore wise as well as enabling them to continue AoS without branding it non cannon.
    Its a shame that updates to these games will eventually hit a dead end due to the source material running out of ideas.

    I never understood the brass for Khorne. Blood being red in humans is due to iron, probably first ever weapon used to kill was wood and stone, the first high-quality weapon was bronze, a mix of tin and copper, first MASS produces weapon (since bronze is harder to make and rarer since you need two different metal deposits while iron is more plentiful) were iron and steel. Brass is softer than steel and used for decorations, for which Khorne has no need or appreciation, the only temple he wants is battlefield and prayer the screams of battle and bloodshed.
    Crystals reflect light and can break (change) it to different colours and blue for water, the element with most common for apparent changes from one state to another (you can see it freeze, melt and vaporize really easy) for Tzeentch, green and gardens since plague is associated with green colour and plagues can be considered a garden of death (and most deadly plagues were natural) for Nurgle, purple and decadence since purple was mostly associated with a high political station in ancient times and often the most decadent were the most powerful and used that power to further their perversions for Slaanesh. Red for Khorne makes sense, iron and that, and black too, a sign of war, charred earth, burned towns etc. But how is a golden decorative metal associated with a guy that distains long-range combat, sorcery and cowards?
