Similar to Tomb Kings, Beastmen lack unit upkeep but are instead limited by a system of unit caps and army caps. Higher Ruination Level unlocks more capacity for armies and units (aside from Ungor Spearmen Herd and Ungor Raiders which are unlimited). Your Ruination Level is shown in a bar in the top center of the screen on the campaign map. Marks of Ruination are permanent, and represent your overall progress in the campaign.

All the Devastation from the Herdstone is converted into Marks of Ruination.

The Herdstone Shards are returned, allowing the player to construct another Herdstone after razing another settlement, elsewhere.

Other factions cannot colonise the ruins in the Blood-grounds without first destroying the Herdstone.

If the Herdstone is destroyed before completing a Ritual of Ruin, then the Herdstone Shards are returned to the Beastmen faction, and the Blood-grounds end.When the Herdstone reaches at least 10 Devastation, the Beastmen faction can start a Ritual of Ruin there (not to be confused with Rituals in the Eye of the Vortex campaign).When viewing the campaign map, each settlement in the Blood-grounds will have a number above it, showing the potential Devastation gained if it is razed. When the Beastmen raze another settlement in the Blood-grounds, this Devastation number will be increased. The Herdstone has a Devastation number above it, reflecting the amount of destruction caused in the Blood-grounds.Structures built in the Herdstone give different boons that strengthen the beastmen, and weaken enemy settlements within the bloodgrounds. Any regions in the bloodgrounds are highlighted red when clicking on the herdstone. The regions around the Herdstone become Blood-grounds.

In each campaign there is also some unique Special Herdstones which can be built on certain settlements around the map. Upgrades for Herdstones can be unlocked using Dread.

The Herdstone is a special settlement type, with very limited building options.

More shards can be gained in various ways, allowing Beastmen to raise multiple Herdstones at once. The shard will be returned if the Herdstone is destroyed, or if a Ritual of Ruin is completed. A shard can be spent to create a Herdstone when razing a settlement.

Beastmen begin with 1 Herdstone Shard.

3 Devastation gained from different settlement levels.
