    Warband Special Rules

    Warband Special Rules

    Few in Number

    Stealth

    Dwarven warbands have a maximum of 12 warriors


    (rather than the normal 15) of which no more than
    9 may be Dwarves. In a Dwarven warband, each
    combat group may consist of no more than 0-2
    heroes and 0-2 henchmen (instead of the normal 02 heroes and 0-3 henchmen). (The maximum
    number of heroes in the warband remains 6.)
    Any Hired Swords in the warband will
    count towards the number of Dwarves.

    While this warrior is in cover, enemy shooting at


    him suffers an additional -1 to hit.

    Sturdy and Stout


    Warriors with this rule are immune to concussive
    effects and suffer no Initiative penalties for
    wearing suits of Heavy Armour.

    Stubborn
    Warriors with this rule may re-roll failed fear and
    panic tests.

    Deathblow (Axes)
    All of this warriors Critical Hits with Axes, Great
    Axes, and Throwing Axes automatically result in a
    Deathblow result on the critical hits table.

    Slayer Vows
    Warriors with this rule will never use other
    weapons than Axes, Great Axes, or Throwing Axes,
    unless a training skill allows otherwise. (They may
    use Special Equipment as normal.)

    Master of Ballistics
    This warrior adds Armour Piercing (1) to all his
    shots with Blackpowder Weapons. This bonus
    stacks with any other Armour Piercing effects their
    weapons may have and does not apply to hits they
    take from their own Blackpowder Misfires.

    Unbreakable
    Warriors with this rule may not leave close combat
    voluntarily.

    Dawi Special Skills


    Grudgebearer
    Warriors with this rule hate all enemies in the first
    round of each close combat. (I.e. all of their close
    combat attacks have +1 to hit.)
    Extra Tough
    Warrior may remove one Campaign Injury from
    himself. This skill may be taken multiple times.
    True Grit
    Warrior has a 4+ special save vs. Critical Hits. If this
    save is successful, treat the critical hit as a normal
    hit instead.
    Resolute
    Warrior has +1 Strength on profile the turn he
    charges.
    Magic Resistance
    Warrior has a 4+ ward save vs. the effects of hostile
    spells.
    Ferocious Charge (+D3) (Slayers Only)
    Warrior adds +D3 to the maximum distance
    moved when charging, up to a maximum of 12.
    (I.e. He rolls 2D6, adds the highest roll to his base
    Movement and then adds another D3 to that.)
    Warriors type must be Slayer to choose this skill.
    Shield Smash
    While this warrior is fighting with a Shield and a
    Hand Weapon, all of this close combat attacks are
    Concussive (1). This ability stacks with any other
    concussive effects he may already have. (E.g.
    attacks from a Sword or Axe become Concussive
    (1), attacks from a Club become Concussive (2) etc.)
