Soulblight Gravelords – The Sons of Velmorn
4" 2 3+ 1 6+ When the Ghurish city of Sentarion was swallowed by the Gnarlwood, King Velmorn sought to defeat the monstrous trees using the Tyrant’s Crown. Yet the sorcerous relic cursed him to a hateful unlife, though his will remains formidable. When Velmorn placed the Tyrant’s Crown upon his head, his loyal sons were slain by a surge of death magic and resurrected as wights. Filled with bitterness, they are nevertheless bound to serve their father for all eternity. | ||

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). | ||
3.3 Reinforced Units
When you add a unit to your army roster, you can add it as a reinforced unit. A reinforced unit has twice as many models as its minimum unit size and costs twice as many points. If a unit has a minimum unit size of 1, it cannot be reinforced. In addition, some units with a unit size of more than 1 can not be reinforced. This will be noted on their battle profile.
