Soulblight Gravelords – Wight King
4" 5 3+ 2 6+ Wight Kings are deathless tyrants, ruling over barrow empires populated entirely by skeletal thralls. They exist only to dominate others, having long ago sacrificed emotion and passion on the altar of their obsessive lust for triumph. In battle, few can withstand their relentless assault. Those foolish enough to challenge their supremacy are soon hacked to pieces by the monarch’s cursed blade, a weapon capable of snuffing out a soul with a single scratch. | ||

ANCIENT STRATEGIES: Death does not rob a Wight King of their strategic genius, and they direct their undead thralls with great skill.
Effect: Pick a friendly non-HERO DEATHRATTLE INFANTRY unit that has not used a FIGHT ability this turn and is within this unit’s combat range to be the target. The target can be picked to use a FIGHT ability immediately after the FIGHT ability used by this unit has been resolved. If it is picked to do so, add 1 to hit rolls for the target’s attacks for the rest of the turn.

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). | ||
Wound Roll
Roll a dice. If the roll equals or exceeds the attacking weapon’s Wound characteristic, the attack successfully wounds: move on to the next step. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. Unmodified wound rolls of 1 always fail.Crit (2 Hits)
If an attack made with this weapon scores a critical hit, that attack scores 2 hits on the target unit instead of 1. Make a wound roll for each hit.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.
A model is considered to be in combat with an enemy unit if that unit is within the model’s combat range and visible to it’
