Ogor Mawtribes – Ironguts
6" 4 5+ 2 Should an ogor survive long enough, they will eventually amass enough status and equipment to rise through the tribe’s ranks. Provided they earn the favour of their Tyrant, these chosen few become Ironguts, their leader’s dedicated bodyguards. These are the biggest, hardest and gnarliest of all the warglutt’s ogors save the chieftain himself, and each is a veteran of more battles than they can count. While ogors are not much good at counting, those who insist that an Irongut prove their right to the title soon find that one good wallop is all it takes to straighten the matter out.
The weapons of choice for these battle-scarred veterans are usually at least as long as they are tall: twelve-foot clubs of stone and iron, battered and blunted scimitars that can fell a gnarloak with a few swipes, and billhooks perfect for slicing open the bellies of mammoths. The gut-plates they wear tend to be more ornate than those of the Gluttons, and it is common practice for Ironguts to strap shields and bucklers taken from their downed foes to their torsos. These trophies are a welcome sign to their allies should a battle be going badly – for when the Ironguts smash into the press of battle, they can turn the tide of a fight all by themselves. | ||

 Once Per Battle, Any Combat Phase |

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.

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. | ||

15.3 Pile-in Moves
Some abilities, such as FIGHT abilities, allow a unit to make a short move called a pile-in move to get into a better position for combat. To do so:If your unit is in combat: Pick an enemy unit your unit is in combat with to be the target of the pile-in move. Each model in your unit can move up to 3". That move can pass through the combat ranges of any enemy units, but each model must end that move no further from the target unit. At the end of the move, your unit must still be in combat with all units that it was in combat with at the start of the move.
If your unit is not in combat: Each model in your unit can move 3" in any direction. That move can pass through and end within the combat ranges of any enemy units.

19.0 Strike-first and Strike-last
If there are any STRIKE-FIRST units in combat at the start of the phase, other units cannot be picked to use a FIGHT ability until those units have been picked to use a FIGHT ability. After all those STRIKE-FIRST units have fought, the active player picks the next unit to fight.If there are any STRIKE-LAST units in combat, they cannot be picked to use a FIGHT ability if there are any units in combat that do not have STRIKE-LAST and have not yet used a FIGHT ability.
If a unit has STRIKE-FIRST and STRIKE-LAST, treat it as if it had neither.
| There may be situations when a unit that has STRIKE-FIRST is not in combat at the start of the phase, but because of moves such as pile-in moves, it is ‘pulled into combat’ later in the phase. In such cases, STRIKE-FIRST has no effect on that unit because it was not in combat at the start of the phase. Abilities that allow a unit to use a FIGHT ability immediately after another unit do not override the STRIKE-FIRST or STRIKE-LAST constraints, so you could not pick a unit with STRIKE-LAST to fight immediately after a unit with STRIKE-FIRST. | ||
