ABILITIES
Skilled Summoner: Thryx is a master at manipulating arcane manifestations.
In the first battle round, after the players have received their starting command points but before the start of the first turn, the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown can automatically cast a spell they know that summons a Disciples of Tzeentch endless spell (do not make a casting roll). That spell cannot be unbound, and that endless spell cannot be dispelled in the first battle round. Set up the endless spell as described in its Summoning rules.

Once per turn, at the end of a phase in which a Horror model in this regiment of renown was slain while its unit was wholly within 12" of the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown, you can pick 1 endless spell on the battlefield that was summoned by that MAGISTER and remove that endless spell from play. If you do so, pick a different endless spell from the list below and set it up as described:
- Burning Sigil of Tzeentch: Set up this endless spell wholly within 18" and visible to the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown, and more than 1" from all models, other endless spells and invocations. Then, roll a dice for each unit within 9" of this endless spell. On a 4+, that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds.
- Tome of Eyes: Set up this endless spell within 1" of and visible to the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown, and more than 1" from all other models, other endless spells and invocations. Then, you can attempt to cast The Parchment Curse with the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown as if it were your hero phase.
- Daemonic Simulacrum: Set up this endless spell wholly within 12" of, and visible to, the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown, and more than 1" from all models, other endless spells and invocations. Then, resolve the effect of the Snapping Jaws ability as if the endless spell had just moved.

14.5 Mortal Wounds
Some attacks, spells and abilities cause mortal wounds. Do not make hit, wound or save rolls for mortal wounds. Instead, the damage inflicted on the target is equal to the number of mortal wounds that were caused.Mortal wounds caused while a unit is attacking are allocated at the same time as wounds caused by the unit’s attacks: after all of the unit’s attacks have been made. Mortal wounds caused at other times are allocated as soon as they are caused. Mortal wounds are allocated in the same way as wounds and are treated in the same manner as wounds for rules purposes.
19.1 Casting Spells
In your hero phase, you can attempt to cast spells with friendly WIZARDS. You cannot attempt to cast the same spell more than once in the same hero phase, even with a different WIZARD. In order to attempt to cast a spell, pick a friendly WIZARD, say which of the spells that they know will be attempted, and then make a casting roll by rolling 2D6. If the casting roll is equal to or greater than the casting value of the spell, the spell is successfully cast.
19.1.2 Unbinding Spells
If a spell is successfully cast, your opponent can pick 1 of their WIZARDS that is within 30" of the caster to attempt to unbind the spell before its effects are applied. In order to attempt to unbind a spell, first say which WIZARD will attempt to unbind it. Then make an unbinding roll by rolling 2D6. If the unbinding roll is greater than the roll used to cast the spell, then the spell is unbound and its effects are not applied. The number of spells a WIZARD can attempt to unbind is noted on their warscroll. Only 1 unbinding attempt can be made for each spell.
1.4.2 Your General
After you have picked your army, you must pick 1 model in your army to be your general. Generals are used to generate command points (see 6.0).
19.3.2 Dispelling Endless Spells
At the start of the hero phase, each player can attempt to dispel 1 endless spell with each friendly WIZARD and friendly PRIEST. The player whose turn is taking place makes all of their dispelling attempts first. If a WIZARD attempts to dispel an endless spell, they can attempt to cast or unbind 1 fewer spell in that hero phase. If a PRIEST attempts to dispel an endless spell, they can chant 1 fewer prayer in that hero phase. The same player cannot attempt to dispel the same endless spell more than once per phase.To attempt to dispel an endless spell, pick 1 endless spell that is within 30" of a friendly WIZARD or friendly PRIEST and that is visible to them. Then make a dispelling roll by rolling 2D6. If the roll is greater than the casting value of that endless spell, it is dispelled and removed from play. An endless spell cannot be summoned again in the turn that it is removed from play.
