When its handle is cranked, the Ratling Gun’s barrels whir up to speed with a scream. The weapon spits warp-laced bullets into the enemy, mowing down foe after foe - at least until it detonates with a sound like a bomb going off in a clockmaker’s workshop.

BATTALIONS: This warscroll can be used in the following warscroll battalions:
• Rattlegauge Warplock
• Rattlegauge Warplock
More-more Warplead!: A Ratling Gun’s crew can release its gimbal-limiter, increasing the gun’s rate of fire at the risk of a catastrophic malfunction.
Before you determine the Attacks characteristic of a Ratling Gun, you can say that the crew are releasing its gimbal-limiter. If you do so, the Attacks characteristic for that attack is 4D6+3 instead of 2D6+3. However, if the roll includes any doubles, this unit is destroyed after all of its attacks have been resolved.
Hidden Weapon Team: Clans Skryre weapon teams often lurk unseen amidst large formations of Stormvermin and Clanrats, revealing themselves once they are close enough to use their weapons.Before you determine the Attacks characteristic of a Ratling Gun, you can say that the crew are releasing its gimbal-limiter. If you do so, the Attacks characteristic for that attack is 4D6+3 instead of 2D6+3. However, if the roll includes any doubles, this unit is destroyed after all of its attacks have been resolved.
When you select this unit to be part of your army, you can pick 1 friendly CLANRATS or STORMVERMIN unit that has 10 or more models and is already part of your army to be the unit in which this unit is hiding. Record this information on a separate piece of paper. Do not set up this unit until it is revealed as described next. You can hide up to 1 WARPFIRE THROWER, RATLING GUN or DOOM-FLAYER unit in a CLANRATS or STORMVERMIN unit for every 10 models in that CLANRATS or STORMVERMIN unit. Hidden Weapon Team units are destroyed if the unit in which they are hiding is destroyed before they are revealed.
At the start of your shooting phase, you can reveal this hidden unit. If you do so, set up this unit wholly within 3" of the unit in which it was hiding and more than 3" from all enemy units. This unit can shoot in the phase in which it is revealed as long as the unit in which it was hiding did not run in the same turn (it could have retreated).

8.2 Retreat
When you pick a unit to retreat, you can move each model in that unit a distance in inches equal to or less than the Move characteristic shown on the unit’s warscroll. The unit must end the move more than 3" from all enemy units. You cannot shoot or attempt a charge later in the turn with a unit that has retreated. Units cannot retreat if they are not within 3" of an enemy unit.
8.3 Run
When you pick a unit to run, you must make a run roll for the unit by rolling a dice. Add the run roll to the Move characteristic of all models in the unit until the end of that phase. You can then move each model in that unit a distance in inches equal to or less than their modified Move characteristic. No part of a run can be within 3" of an enemy unit. You cannot shoot or attempt a charge later in the turn with a unit that has run. Units cannot run if they are within 3" of an enemy unit.
