Stygian Beastmen

The Stygian Empire acted as a refuge for mutants oppressed by the imperium of man.  Thousands upon thousands of mutants flacked to the Stygian Banner to wage war upon their former oppressors.  Beastmen in particular took up arms in service to the Stygian Empire and their large size and natural aggression saw them being used as shock assault troops.  Beastmen often went berserk and were thus equipped for close quarter battle whenever possible.
