Slaves to Darkness – Volt-Klaw’s Enginecoven
•REGIMENT OF RENOWN•
Volt-Klaw’s Enginecoven
Not all Warlocks stay with their clan. Some chafe under authority; others flee after some contraption goes awry. It is not clear which category Grisk Volt-Klaw falls under, but the Galvaneer avoids wider Skavendom, hiring out his arsenal in exchange for exorbitant warpstone tithes - in part because of greed and in part because he has modified his creations to such extremes that they consume arcane fuel at an astonishing rate. With warpstone deposits forming across the realms in the Hour of Ruin, business is booming. | ||

 Once Per Battle (Army), Your Shooting Phase |
BEHOLD MY GENIUS!: While setting Volt-Klaw's machines to maximum power quickly burns through their fuel, it also enhances their lethality to appalling levels.
Declare: Pick all friendly VOLT-KLAW’S ENGINECOVEN units to be the targets.
Effect: Until the start of your next turn:
Effect: Until the start of your next turn:
- Add 1 to hit rolls for the targets’ shooting attacks.
- Add 3" to the Range characteristic of the targets’ ranged weapons.
 Passive |
HIDE-SHELTER!: Volt-Klaw is insanely protective of his arsenal - afact that his long- suffering underlings use as an excuse to shelter behind sturdier weapons when needed.
Effect: While a friendly VOLT-KLAW’S ENGINECOVEN non-INFANTRY unit is within the combat range of a friendly VOLT-KLAW’S ENGINECOVEN Ratling Warpblaster, it is not visible to enemy units more than 13" away.
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). | ||

Regiment of Renown
6.0 Visibility
A target model is visible to another model (which we’ll call the ‘observing model’) if you can draw a straight line through the air (whether horizontal, diagonal or vertical) from any point on the observing model to any point on the target model that does not intersect any objects except for other models in the observing model’s unit. A target unit is visible to an observing unit if at least 1 model in the target unit is visible to at least 1 model in the observing unit. A model is always considered to be visible to itself.
| ||
| In some cases, it might not be immediately clear whether a model is visible. If so, stoop down to get a look from behind the observing model. If any part of the other model is visible, even if it is just the tip of a spear, then that model is visible for rules purposes. | ||
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.

The non-HERO WARRIORS OF CHAOS and INFANTRY keywords are used in the following Slaves to Darkness warscrolls:
Shooting attacks
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).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 1 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.
