Southern Chaos Wastes (No not that place full of convicts)

[Chico]

So over the years GW have released a ever changing Warhammer world and have expanded on a number of places which were rather vague at the beginning (Lustria, Albion Norsca) but I have never read anything about the Southern Chaos Wastes.

Anyone have any details/fluff about this place?

I really have absolutely no idea...but it's probably full of convicts

Does it explicitly say "Chaos wastes" anywhere rather than just "southern wastes"? The fluff in the 3rd ed rulebook says the Slann had gates at both poles, so I guess the southern one would have collapsed at the same time.

This is the only fluff I could find:

Surrounding the South Pole are the Southern Chaos Wastes. Containing one of the highest concentrations of Beastmen in the whole world, this continent is thankfully separated from all others by water.

And in the WhFB3 Rulebook it does say it collapsed as well, and on the maps its states ''Here be demons''

Aside from the claim that its full of beastmen, I've never seen anything official from GW, which is just as well as it gives you scope to do your own thing!

In fact, I've long thought that it would be exciting to do a campaign based on H.P. Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" (which is based on antarctic exploration)... back in the 90s I remember seeing that there was a Call of Cthulu published campaign based on that story which I always thought would be pretty exciting.
