Sons of Behemat – Scourge of Aqshy Gatebreaker Mega-Gargant
10" 25 4+ 10 Already prone to rage-filled outbursts at the sight of any trappings of civilisation, the furious spirit of Aqshy sees the Gatebreakers become even more unrestrainedly destructive. There is no stronghold, no hovel, no intentional pile of stones that will not draw their terrific ire. | ||

 Once Per Battle (Army), Your Hero Phase |
IT’S GOIN’ DOWN: Narrowing their eyes at a particularly bothersome example of a pipsqueak construction, the Gatebreaker cracks their neck, rolls their shoulders, tucks a giant boulder under their arm and takes off running towards it.
Effect: Until the start of your next turn:
- This unit has a Move characteristic of 4D6".
- While this unit is within 1" of a terrain feature, the Attacks characteristic of its Hurled Boulder is D6 instead of 1.
 Passive |
BATTLE DAMAGEDEffect: While this unit has 15 or more damage points, the Attacks characteristic of its Fortcrusha Flail is 11 for Calamitous Sweep and 4 for Crushing Blow.
 Once Per Turn (Army), Your Movement Phase |
OFF IN A HUFF: In a fit of pique, the Gatebreaker storms off, showing wanton disregard for anything that might happen to be in their path.
Effect: You and your opponent must roll off. Each player adds their fury level to their roll. Then, this unit can move a distance up to its Move characteristic. It can move through the combat ranges of enemy units, but it cannot end that move in combat unless you won the roll-off.
