Skaven – Phulgoth’s Shudderhood
•REGIMENT OF RENOWN•
Phulgoth’s Shudderhood
Where despair and misery wax strong, there roams the Harbinger Phulgoth and his Shudderhood. Shrouded by droning flies and thick fogs of hopelessness, they spread their cyclical omens of disaster and bring down doom on the Plaguefather’s enemies. | ||
•REGIMENT OF RENOWN•
Phulgoth’s Shudderhood
INCLUSION This Regiment of Renown can be included in armies from the following factions: | ||
 Passive |
FOG OF DESPAIR: The advance of Phulgoth’s entourage is shrouded by miasmas of concentrated misery.
Effect: Subtract 1 from hit rolls for attacks that target units in this Regiment of Renown while they are wholly within 9" of the Harbinger of Decay in this Regiment of Renown.
| Once Per Turn (Army), Any Hero Phase |
NAUSEATING CONVALESCENCE: Phulgoth and his minions are empowered by the spread of hopelessness and woe.
Effect: Heal (1) each unit in this Regiment of Renown.
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). | ||
3.5 Regiments of Renown
In addition to creating your own regiments, you can also spend points to include 1 Regiment of Renown. Regiments of Renown are pre-built regiments, each with their own special abilities. The rules for each Regiment of Renown will specify which factions can include it. A unit in a Regiment of Renown cannot be your general even if it is a WARMASTER.- You cannot include more than one Regiment of Renown in your army unless otherwise specified in the notes column of that regiment’s battle profile.
- Units in a Regiment of Renown cannot use (but can be picked as the target of, if otherwise eligible) any faction rules from the faction they are allied into, including enhancements and lores, unless they have a keyword that matches that faction’s name.
- If an ability allows you to set up a replacement unit (Core Rules, 24.2) for a unit in a Regiment of Renown, that unit also counts as being part of that Regiment of Renown.
| Passive |
SEED OF REBIRTH: Should the bearer of this seed ever fall, its rejuvenating energies will grant them new life.
Effect: The first time this unit would be destroyed, before removing it from play, roll a dice. On a 3+, this unit is not destroyed and any remaining damage points inflicted on it have no effect. Then, Heal (D3) this unit.
21.0 Healing
Some abilities allow you to heal a unit. To heal a unit, remove a number of damage points from the unit equal to the number in brackets after ‘Heal’, e.g. Heal (2).FAQ
| Q: | If an ability (e.g. ‘Seed of Rebirth’) would allow a unit that would be destroyed to negate all remaining damage points then heal to prevent that unit from being destroyed, and another ability (e.g. ‘Quenching the Flames’) prevents that unit from healing, would that unit still be destroyed? |
| A: | Yes. |
