Kruleboyz – Killaboss with Stab-grot
5" 6 4+ 2 The Killabosses that rule over Kruleboyz society tower over their lesser kin. Grown strong on a diet of near-constant war and plentiful red meat, their ‘finkin’ muscles’ are backed up by raw physical prowess. The tribal shamans consider Killabosses to be the truest incarnations of Gorkamorka, for not only do they have razor-sharp wits, they are also possessed of an imposing wiry strength. Their superior kunnin’ in battle, however, is what they are renowned for. They fight in the most underhanded way, whether throwing mud or blinding powder into their opponents’ eyes, laying traps, tripping the legs or kicking the groin. Their jagged blades are designed to hook and pull away shields to find the vulnerable flesh behind.
The most infamous Killabosses are accompanied to war by a loose entourage of eager hangers-on. Though the advice of a shaman or the extra muscle of a nob bodyguard are always vital, many Killabosses will keep an attendant Stab‑grot, often as a spiteful and obnoxious mascot to bolster their image. That is not to say that these grots are useless in combat; many are chosen for their unusual prowess at hamstringing or their extra-sneaky disposition. More often than not, however, they are simply there to act as a handy meat-shield should the battle go awry. | ||

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). | ||
Crit (Mortal)
If an attack made with this weapon scores a critical hit, that attack inflicts mortal damage on the target unit equal to the Damage characteristic of that weapon and the attack sequence ends.The INFANTRY keyword is used in the following Kruleboyz warscrolls:

23.0 Tokens
Tokens are not considered to be models for rules purposes and can be ignored or moved out of the way for purposes of visibility, coherency or abilities. They cannot be picked as the target of abilities. Their purpose is to indicate persisting effects on units they are placed next to. Each time a unit with a token finishes a move or is set up, place the token next to the unit.
17.2 Mortal Damage
Some abilities inflict mortal damage. If an ability inflicts mortal damage on a unit, add that number of damage points to the unit’s damage pool for that ability (see 18.2 Allocating Damage).
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.
