Ossiarch Bonereapers – Liege-Kavalos
10" 7 3+ 2 Clad in the morbid panoply of the Ossiarch legions, a Liege-Kavalos directs their armies with chilling focus. Their place is at the tip of charging cavalry formations, punching through enemies like Katakros’s own spear. Once they have inflicted sufficient ruin and shock, a Liege-Kavalos leads their riders to smash from the foe’s back ranks, wheel about and repeat the process; many boast that they could trample an entire civilisation beneath their hooves if given a single lance of Deathriders and enough time to see it done.
Liege-Kavaloi are the satraps and provincial lords of the Bonereapers’ empire, charged with custodianship of the necropolises and expansion of the Necrotopia. The proud souls that animate them were, in life, renowned for their ability to inspire fanatical loyalty; in death, that force of will drives those undead they command onwards without pause, to the horror of the living. Ossiarch footsoldiers obey the orders of their Liege-Kavalos without hesitation or delay; this complete obedience, when combined with the Liege-Kavalos’s military genius, has secured countless stunning victories in the name of the Ossiarch Empire. | ||

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). | ||
Wound Roll
Roll a dice. If the roll equals or exceeds the attacking weapon’s Wound characteristic, the attack successfully wounds: move on to the next step. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. Unmodified wound rolls of 1 always fail.Crit (2 Hits)
If an attack made with this weapon scores a critical hit, that attack scores 2 hits on the target unit instead of 1. Make a wound roll for each hit.Charge (+1 Damage)
Add 1 to this weapon’s Damage characteristic if the attacking unit charged this turn.Companion
Unless otherwise specified, this weapon is not affected by friendly abilities that affect weapon characteristics or the attack sequence, except for those that apply negative modifiers to it (e.g. ‘Covering Fire’).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.
