Kharadron Overlords – Grundstok Gunhauler
12" 10 3+ 2 The signature craft of the Grundcorps is the Gunhauler. It is essentially a flying cannon, built to be the perfect fusion of manoeuvrability and lethality. The cumbersome nature of such a large war machine is completely negated by the Gunhauler’s nimble aether-endrins and the deft handling of its pilot.
It is a point of pride amongst the Grundcorps that none of the thousands of Gunhaulers actually belong to the sky-ports. Even when they are repainted to match their contractual employers for a long-haul contract, they are owned by the Grundstok Company alone. Exceptional escorts, they multiply the potential of every Ironclad and Frigate they fly alongside several times over. They excel as defensive point-guards, blasting away at interlopers before their employers’ craft take so much as a scratch. On the offence, they are swift and capable, flying with impressive speed to pinpoint and neutralise the enemy’s own artillery or batter monstrous denizens as soon as they have left their caves. | ||

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.

| When moving flying units, move them horizontally in any direction, ignoring intervening models and terrain, and place them where you wish, so long as they are allowed to end their move on that spot. Note that some units have the FLY keyword even if that unit can’t really fly. This often represents units that bounce, bound or skitter across the battlefield so adeptly that they might as well be flying! | ||

18.1 Ward Saves
Units with the WARD keyword have the ‘Ward Save’ passive ability. The number after the WARD keyword indicates the ward value for the ward save. If a unit had WARD (5+), for example, its ward value would be 5. If a unit has more than one ward save, only the ward save with the lowest value applies to it; the other has no effect.| Passive |
WARD SAVE: Whether through their uncanny reflexes, unnatural toughness or a source of mystical protection, these warriors can avoid otherwise lethal attacks.
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.
