Slaves to Darkness – Ogroid Theridons
6" 5 4+ 2 Hulking and bestial shock troops, the Ogroid Theridons are ferocious indeed. Few would perceive the tragedy of their long history. The Goroans, as they know themselves, once fought in the armies of primal Gorkamorka. Unlike their orruk and ogor kin, however, the Goroans saw notions of trade, forgecraft and magical study as worthy goals and sought to craft an advanced civilisation. Alas, the Twin-Headed God’s more basal hordes took umbrage with this. They sacked the Goroan capital of High Progrexia and a bitter civil war followed, one that saw the Goroans defeated and fleeing to the Eightpoints. They forged an alliance with the Everchosen, grudgingly embracing Chaos in the name of revenge.
For all their monstrous appearance, ogroids continue to exalt their former culture, corrupted as it now may be by Chaos. Their Theridon cohorts wield the traditional weapons of their people, tools that – along with the ogroids’ natural strength – can part even plate of meteoric iron. Yet bitterness has seized these creatures, constantly stoking their innate fury. On the battlefield, ogroids can fly into a berserk rage, tearing and maiming in truly gruesome displays that put the lie to any claim of true civilisation they might make. | ||

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. | ||
