Kruleboyz – Gutrippaz
5" 2 5+ 1 Gutrippaz form the spiteful heart of nearly all Kruleboyz war-parties. They are the ready reserve of green muscle that the Killabosses employ to carry out their kunnin’ plans. They are canny enough to form what are, by orruk standards, complex battlelines, and their understanding of how to exploit formations and pick apart less numerous or skilful foes is near instinctive.
The hideous skareshields carried by the Gutrippaz are constantly coated in a film of grime that can be used to reapply poison to their weapons. This act has an almost religious significance to the orruks, who refer to it by such terms as ‘givin’ it some bite’ and ‘puttin’ on da grin’. Yet the main purpose of these shields, as well as to protect the orruks, is to terrify the foe; the blood and slime of bloated swamp creatures is daubed across their faces, reacting with the shrouding fog summoned by the Swampcallas to glow with a weird bioluminescence. The Gutrippaz add to this unsettling image by banging their weapons together loudly, howling like rabid beasts or bawling crude raiding songs. Gutrippaz, by nature, prefer it when a fight begins in their favour, but their blood runs as hot as any orruk’s, and when a scrap is properly underway, the biggest difficulty for a Killaboss looking to take prisoners can be getting the Gutrippaz to stop. | ||

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. | ||
