Gloomspite Gitz – Moonclan Stabbas
5" 1 5+ 1 To the sound of clanging gongs and high-pitched squealing, the Moonclan grots emerge to cause havoc. These stunted creatures, clad in dark and grimy robes, are the vindictive heart of grot armies. When the rabid mania of the Gloomspite seizes them, they attack in a vicious tide. A grot horde pitched to the heights of frenzy will happily spend hundreds of lives to overwhelm an enemy; after all, there are always more where they came from.
The grots that make up the greater mass of the Moonclan mobs are known as Stabbas, and they are aptly named, for it is their job to repeatedly shank the foe with their crooked spears and rusty blades. Though usually cowardly creatures, grots will strike out madly should they think they have the advantage. Numbers are their greatest weapon, for they feel safer and stronger when surrounded by a press of their bickering kin. They also employ devious tricks to swing the odds in their favour, unafraid of fighting dirty and eschewing such hindrances as pride and honour. Weighted nets are a favourite, flung over enemies to leave them struggling and helpless while the grots jab them full of holes. | ||

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). | ||

32.2 Objective Control
At the start of the first battle round and at the end of each turn, follow this sequence for each objective in an order chosen by the active player:- Starting with the active player, each player determines the control score of each of their units that is contesting that objective. A unit’s control score is the combined Control characteristics of all the models in that unit that are contesting the objective. Some abilities modify a unit’s control score, but it cannot be reduced to less than 1.
- Each player adds up the control scores of all of their units contesting that objective. This is their army control score for that objective.
- The players compare their army control scores for that objective. If one player’s score is higher, that player gains control of that objective. Once a player gains control of an objective, it remains under their control until their opponent gains control of it.
| Sometimes objective markers get accidentally nudged while you are moving models around. This is perfectly fine - just remember to put them back in their proper positions when determining objective control. | ||
