Kruleboyz – Hobgrot Slittaz
5" 1 6+ 1 Somewhere between grots and orruks in size, hobgrots make up for their lack of physical presence with a glut of vicious cunning. They are snide, conniving and mean-spirited but more intelligent and stronger than your average grot. They even have a crude language of runic glyphs and a rough organisation that is closer to human military than that of the orruks. They love nothing more than lording it over the lesser grots and snotlings that make up the dregs of their society. Of course, all this self-importance ends abruptly when the orruks arrive to conscript them into the greater horde.
When the orruks’ attention is elsewhere, these Hobgrot Slittaz go back to muttering ear-searingly obscene insults to one another, jabbing daggers into exposed backs only to blame it on nearby rivals, and tripping one another up so they get trampled into the dirt. Only when the enemy is in ‘killin’ range’ do they form up once more, hurling their hard-won explosive bangstikks into the foe – half of which exude volatile gas that is explosively ignited by the incendiary contents of the others – before charging in to finish the job with their nastylooking, razor-sharp blades. | ||

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. | ||

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.
