Cities of Sigmar – Wildercorps Hunters
5" 1 5+ 1 Trackers, scouts and outdoorsmen, the Wildercorps are experts in attacking from the cover of thick foliage and broken ground. Their warhounds surge forward, sinking fangs into flesh as skilled marksmen pick out their targets with crossbows and arbalests.
Though rarely hailed as heroes, often being too belligerent or crude for Marshals to handle, the Wildercorps save the citizen armies from disaster time and again. During recruitment, they are sent to train in the scruffy barracks on the city limits, roving far and wide as they hone their skills. Many amongst them are recent Reclaimed who have found it impossible to sleep in a comfortable bed. Back out they go into the wilds – for all their peril, the only place they ever really called home. This affinity for the wilderness makes them excellent hunters, both of the animals they slay with crossbow, trap and spear and of the outlying elements of invading armies. They train fierce Trailhounds, often rewarding them with chunks of fresh rat-meat so that they quickly learn to detect cowardly Skaven. As the hounds harass the foe, the Wildercorps Hunters take their shots, their weapons taking a toll before the enemy even knows they are under attack, then melt away into the shadows to begin the hunt anew. | ||

Hit Roll
Roll a dice. If the roll equals or exceeds the attacking weapon’s Hit characteristic, the attack scores a successful hit: move on to the next step. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. Unmodified hit rolls of 1 always fail. If an unmodified hit roll for an attack made with a weapon is a 6, that attack is a critical hit.| Critical hits have no effect on their own but often trigger additional effects (see 20.0 Weapon Abilities). | ||

Army List
Warscrolls collatedShooting attacks
Shooting attacks are made with ranged weapons. The target unit(s) must be within a distance equal to the Range characteristic of the weapon being used and visible to the attacking model. Models cannot make shooting attacks if their unit is in combat, unless otherwise specified (see 20.0 Weapon Abilities).Companion
Unless otherwise specified, this weapon is not affected by friendly abilities that affect weapon characteristics or the attack sequence, except for those that apply negative modifiers to it (e.g. ‘Covering Fire’).6.0 Visibility
A target model is visible to another model (which we’ll call the ‘observing model’) if you can draw a straight line through the air (whether horizontal, diagonal or vertical) from any point on the observing model to any point on the target model that does not intersect any objects except for other models in the observing model’s unit. A target unit is visible to an observing unit if at least 1 model in the target unit is visible to at least 1 model in the observing unit. A model is always considered to be visible to itself.
| ||
| In some cases, it might not be immediately clear whether a model is visible. If so, stoop down to get a look from behind the observing model. If any part of the other model is visible, even if it is just the tip of a spear, then that model is visible for rules purposes. | ||
17.2 Mortal Damage
Some abilities inflict mortal damage. If an ability inflicts mortal damage on a unit, add that number of damage points to the unit’s damage pool for that ability (see 18.2 Allocating Damage).
The HUMAN keyword is used in the following Cities of Sigmar warscrolls:
7.0 Combat Range
Each model has a combat range that extends 3" horizontally from its base and any distance vertically from that circle to form a cylinder. The combat range of a unit extends 3" horizontally and any distance vertically from every model in that unit. Units from opposing armies that are within each other’s combat range and that are visible to each other are in combat with each other. When a unit that is not in combat enters the combat range of a visible enemy unit, it moves into combat.
A model is considered to be in combat with an enemy unit if that unit is within the model’s combat range and visible to it’
