Seraphon – Stegadon
8" 14 4+ 5 A charging Stegadon is a force of nature. Several dozen tonnes of armoured hide and stone-hard horns is enough to pulverise any obstacle – living or otherwise. Those enemies that the mighty beast does not stomp flat are spitted upon its massive horns or torn in two by its rending bite as the Stegadon’s unstoppable charge rampages on. Those foolish enough to attack such a creature from behind in an attempt to avoid its charge instead find their chests swiftly caved in by its lashing tail. One of these living wrecking balls is terrifying enough, but when several of them are unleashed together they can annihilate entire armies.
Few things inspire a skink warrior more than seeing such tremendous violence unleashed – a true testament to the power of the Old Ones. It is considered a great honour to earn a place on the crew of a Stegadon, riding atop a howdah of gold and stone as the beast beneath charges headlong into battle. Those chosen for this duty are granted skystreak bows that hurl celestite-tipped bolts and javelins to hurl at enemies below. Constellations dedicated to Chotec, God of the Sun, prefer to employ deadly sunfire throwers, summoning cosmic flames and sending them cascading across their foes. | ||

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’).Anti-X (+1 Rend)
Add 1 to this weapon’s Rend characteristic if the target has the keyword after ‘Anti-’ or fulfils the condition after ‘Anti-’. Multiples of this ability are cumulative. For example, if a weapon has both Anti-charge (+1 Rend) and Anti-HERO (+1 Rend), then add 2 to the Rend characteristic of the weapon for attacks that target a HERO that charged in the same turn.Army List

Shooting attacks are made with ranged weapons. The target unit(s) must be within a distance equal to the Range characteristic of the weapon being used and visible to the attacking model. Models cannot make shooting attacks if their unit is in combat, unless otherwise specified (see 20.0 Weapon Abilities).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 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). | ||
