Gigantic Spawn of Chaos

If a model with this special rule rolls a natural 6 when making a roll To Wound, the Armour Piercing characteristic of its weapon is improved by the amount shown in brackets after the name of this special rule.

For example, if a natural 6 is rolled when rolling To Wound with a weapon that has an AP of "-" and the Armour Bane (1) special rule its AP counts as being -1 when making an Armour Save roll against that wound.

A unit consisting of models with this special rule may adopt a Close Order formation.

If this unit’s first charge of the game is successful (i.e., if the unit makes contact with the charge target), the charge target becomes Disrupted until the end of the Combat phase of that turn.

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.

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.

Models with this special rule do not have a normal Attacks characteristic. Instead, a dice roll is given (D3+1, for example). Each time a model with this special rule attacks in combat, roll the dice to determine the number of attacks it will make, then roll To Hit as normal. If a fighting rank contains more than one model with this special rule, roll separately for each, unless specified otherwise.

Models with this special rule do not have a normal Movement characteristic. Instead, a dice roll is given (2D6, for example). When a model with this special rule moves, roll the dice to determine its maximum movement..

Models with this special rule move during the Compulsory Moves sub-phase. They cannot march or declare a charge. They can wheel to change direction, but cannot perform any other manoeuvres. If the model is able to make contact with an enemy unit during the Compulsory Moves sub-phase or whilst pursuing, it may do so and counts as having charged. The model aligns against the enemy unit and stops moving. A unit charged in this way must Hold.

If every model in a unit has this special rule, roll once for the entire unit. If two or more models in a unit have different Random Movement characteristics, roll for each and use the lowest result for the entire unit.

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.

Models with this special rule cause Terror. Models that cause Terror also cause Fear:

• When a unit that causes Terror declares a charge, the charge target must immediately make a Leadership test. If this test is failed, it must Flee. If this test is passed, it can declare its charge reaction normally.

• If the winning side of a combat includes one or more units that cause Terror, each unit that belongs to the losing side must apply a -1 modifier to its Leadership characteristic when making its Break test.

Note that if a charged unit cannot choose to Flee, it does not make this Leadership test.

Models with the Fear special rule Fear models that cause Terror. Models that cause Terror are immune to Terror. A unit that does not cause Terror does not become immune to Terror when joined by a character that does.

When this model is reduced to zero Wounds, the winner of a roll-off chooses one of its arcs (front, flank or rear) for it to fall into. Any units that are within the chosen arc and in base contact with this model suffer D6 hits, each using the Strength characteristic of this model, with an AP of -1. Once these hits are resolved, this model is removed from play.

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.
