Iron Daemon

During the Movement phase, up to two friendly war machines with the ‘Steam Carriage’ upgrade that are completely within this model’s rear arc and within 8" of its base at the beginning of the phase can be moved when this model moves. These war machines must finish their movement completely within this model’s rear arc and within 8" of its base.

Unless this model moves using the Lumbering Destruction special rule or makes a charge move, these war machines are not considered to have moved this turn.

A unit consisting of models with this special rule may adopt a Close Order formation, as described on page 100.

Models with this special rule cause Fear:

• If a unit wishes to declare a charge against an enemy unit that both causes Fear and has a higher Unit Strength, it must first make a Leadership test. If this test is failed, the unit cannot charge. It does not move and is considered to have made a failed charge. If this test is passed, the unit can charge as normal.

• If a unit is engaged with an enemy unit that both causes Fear and has a higher Unit Strength when its combat is chosen during any Choose & Fight Combat sub-phase, it must make a Leadership test. If this test is failed, any models in the unit that direct their attacks against the Fear-causing enemy suffer a -1 modifier to their rolls To Hit.

A unit only needs to make one Fear test per turn. Models that cause Fear are immune to Fear. A unit that does not cause Fear does not become immune to Fear when joined by a character that does.

Stomp Attacks made by an Iron Daemon have an Armour Piercing characteristic of -2.

However, this rule cannot be used against models whose troop type is ‘behemoth’ – they are simply too large to be caught beneath an Iron Daemon’s wheels.

In addition, and unlike other chariots, this model treats low linear obstacles as open terrain rather than as impassable terrain.

If the majority of the models in a unit are Immune to Psychology, the unit automatically passes any Fear, Panic or Terror tests it is required to make. However, if the majority of the models in a unit have this special rule, the unit cannot choose to Flee as a charge reaction.

Note that this special rule does not make a unit immune to any test made against Leadership not stated here.

The number of Impact Hits caused varies from model to model, and will be shown in brackets after the name of this special rile. Often, this is determined by the roll of a dice.

Resolving Impact Hits: Impact Hits can only be made by a charging model that moved 3" or more and that is in base contact with the enemy. Impact hits are attacks made in combat that always strike at Initiative 10 (regardless of modifiers), and that hit automatically using the unmodified Strength characteristic of the model.

Enemy models never suffer To Hit modifiers for full or partial cover when shooting at models with this special rule. In addition, a model can draw a line of sight to a model with this special rule over or through other models, and vice versa.

An Iron Daemon cannot march. Instead, you may roll a D6 and add its result to the model’s Movement characteristic. However, if a natural 1 is rolled when making this roll, something has gone wrong deep within the infernal machine, rendering it immobile. The

The number of Stomp Attacks caused varies from model to model and will be shown in brackets after the name of this special rule. Often, this is determined by the roll of a dice.

Resolving Stomp Attacks: Stomp Attacks can only be made by a model that is in base contact with the enemy. Stomp Attacks are attacks made in combat that always strike at Initiative 1 (regardless of modifiers) and that hit automatically using the unmodified Strength characteristic of the model.

If a unit with this special rule loses a round of combat, it is not required to make a Break test. Instead, it will automatically Give Ground as it is pushed back by the enemy. Characters that are not Unbreakable cannot join units that are, and vice versa.
