Battle Traits: Pyrofane Cult

When picking targets for shooting attacks made by friendly units with weapons that have the Wyrdflame weapon ability, you can also pick terrain features that are visible to and within range of the attacking model to be targets. Non-Faction Terrain terrain features are considered to have a Save characteristic of 5+ and infinite Health for the purposes of this ability. If any damage points were allocated to a terrain feature by those attacks, after the Shoot ability has been resolved, roll a dice. If the result is less than or equal to the number of damage points allocated to that terrain feature in this phase, it has the Wyrdpyre keyword for the rest of the battle. Designer's Note: *Ad non-Faction Terrain features are treated as having infinite Health for the purposes of this ability, you can remove all damage points allocated to them at the end of the shooting phase.
