Sylvaneth – Kurnoth Hunters with Greatbows

HUNTER’S ENDURANCE: As the spirit-song intensifies and the magic of life surges across the battlefield, Kurnoth Hunters are gripped with a sacred fervour of the chase that sees them shrug off wounds.
Effect: Subtract 1 from the Rend characteristic of weapons used for attacks that target this unit while it is wholly within the creeping overgrowth.
 Once Per Turn (Army), Your Shooting Phase |
STEADY AIM: Bow-wielding Kurnoth Hunters are those of their kind who exhibit particular focus and patience. They take the time to carefully aim and line up a target before unleashing their arrows with deadly precision.
Effect: If this unit has not used a MOVE ability this turn and was not set up this turn, add 1 to hit rolls for this unit’s shooting 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). | ||

THE CREEPING OVERGROWTH: As children of Ghyran, the Sylvaneth are redolent with the energies of life, which cause the ambient flora to rapidly grow and spread.
Effect: The creeping overgrowth is measured from each terrain feature that has a friendly overgrown token. The range of the creeping overgrowth is based on the number of friendly overgrown tokens on the battlefield as shown:
Designer’s Note: Awakened Wyldwoods are your main way of generating overgrown tokens. Some unit abilities allow you to do so too.
