Flesh-eater Courts – Crypt Haunter Courtier
7" 6 5+ 2 Crypt Haunter Courtiers are respected and, in many cases, feared by lower-ranking ghouls, for as the marshals of their kingdom’s knightly orders, they possess a brutal prowess. Twisted creatures of bulging muscles and protruding bone, they have been utterly transformed by necromantic energies and are now barely recognisable as the debased humans they once were. That same necrotic power also grants Crypt Haunters formidable regenerative abilities, allowing them to shrug off all but the most devastating blows.
In battle, these warlike courtiers stampede to the front alongside other swollen ghoul-things, forming a terrifying wedge of ferocity that barrels right into the thickest concentration of enemy soldiers. Consumed by bloodlust and a need to distinguish themselves in their liege’s eyes, a Crypt Haunter Courtier seeks to outdo their kin with displays of blood-spraying savagery. They smash away with a gigantic bone club or simply rely upon their dagger-length talons to rend flesh and metal alike. As crimson ichor sprays from foes savaged by the Courtier, more ‘knights’ flock to their side, recognising that where these champions fight, the greatest feasts are found. | ||

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). | ||

Each unit in combat must use a FIGHT ability if it is able to.Once a player has no more units that are eligible to use a FIGHT ability, the other player continues to pick units that are eligible to use a FIGHT ability, one after another, until there are no more units that are eligible to use a FIGHT ability.
