Flesh-eater Courts – Scourge of Ghyran Abhorrant Ghoul King
6" 5 5+ 2 6+ Utterly deranged, the Abhorrant Ghoul Kings of the Everspring Swathe believe themselves to be good and just rulers of forest kingdoms, rather than the flesh-eating nightmares they truly are. Their cadaverous minions are equally deluded. Such is their devotion to their vampiric master that should the Ghoul King fall they will enter a berserk rage, ripping and tearing those responsible to shreds. | ||

Effect: In step 1 of the damage sequence (see 18.0), make a ward roll of D6 for each damage point in this unit’s damage pool. If the roll equals or exceeds this unit’s ward value, remove that damage point from the damage pool.

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). | ||
Save Roll
The commander of the target unit rolls a dice, subtracting the attacking weapon’s Rend characteristic from the roll. Unmodified save rolls of 1 always fail. If the roll equals or exceeds the Save characteristic of the target unit, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. If not, it is a successful attack: move on to the next step.Crit (Auto-wound)
If an attack made with this weapon scores a critical hit, that attack automatically wounds the target. Make a save roll as normal.1.0 Wizards and Priests
