Cauldron of Blood

60x100

Such a unit is able to form up in Close Order.

• Restriction: the bearer of this rule (not its mount)
• Condition: first round of combat
• Result: Initiative characteristic +1, capped at 10

• Result:
• Frenzied model, on a turn of its charge move or the turn after its follow up move: gains +1 Attacks characteristic (not for the mount of a cavalry model, the beasts of a chariot, or the rider of a monster)
• At all times, majority Frenzied: unit passes every Fear, Panic and Terror test automatically
• At all times, unit with 1+ Frenzied models that could declare a charge in its own Declare Charges & Charge Reactions sub-phase: forced to do so
• At all times, majority Frenzied: Flee is not allowed as a charge reaction, and no Restraint test can be made
• Losing Frenzy: a model whose side loses a combat round on combat result drops Frenzy immediately

• Timing: first round of combat
• Select: failed rolls To Hit versus a hatred enemy
• Result: re-roll them (optional)
• hated foes appear in brackets next to the name; 'all enemies' covers every enemy model

• Restriction: charging model that moved 3"+, touching the enemy base
• Result: causes the number of Impact Hits given in brackets (often dice-determined)
• Resolving Impact Hits: applied to the charged unit when its combat is picked, at Step 1.1 of the Choose Combat & Fight sub-phase, ahead of challenges
• Automatic hits at the attacker's unmodified Strength

• Restriction: Large Target (Large Targets)
• Result:
• Partial and full cover give it no benefit
• Line of sight to and from it passes across another unit, unless that unit is also a Large Target
• Shooting unit gets 1 additional rank firing at it

• Condition: enemy spell, Bound Spells too, aims at a unit containing a bearer
• Result: Casting roll takes the bracketed (-X) modifier
• not cumulative; the unit takes the largest

• Restriction: mundane weapons only; the model's mount never benefits; ends while a magic weapon is used
• Timing: model engaged in close combat
• Result: may re-roll To Wound rolls showing a natural 1 (optional)

• Restriction: model with Poisoned Attacks
• Condition: natural 6 on a roll To Hit; does not work if a hit roll of 7+ is needed or the attack hits automatically
• Result: +2 on the roll To Wound for that hit (optional)
• Valid in shooting and combat unless stated otherwise
• Excluded: the model's own spells, attacks from magic weapons

• Restriction: model with Terror
• Result: also causes Fear
• When a Terror-causing unit declares a charge, its target takes a Leadership test straight away; failing means it must Flee, passing means it chooses its charge reaction as usual. A target that cannot choose to Flee skips this test.
• When 1+ Terror-causing units are on the side that wins a combat: each unit on the losing side gets -1 to its Leadership characteristic for its Break test.
• Causing Fear gives no protection against the Fear of Terror-causing models. Models causing Terror are immune to Terror; a unit not causing it gains no immunity when a character that does joins it.

• Limits: 1 Blessing per model or unit each turn, even with several Cauldrons of Blood fielded
• Timing: own Command sub-phase
• Condition: this model passes a Leadership test on its own unmodified Leadership (optional attempt)
• Select: itself plus 1× friendly Death Hag, Khainite Assassin, Witch Elves unit, or Har Ganeth Executioners unit in Command range; if several qualify, announce to the opponent which was picked
• Result: both gain 1 of the Blessings of Khaine:
• Fury of Khaine: Extra Attacks (1)
• Strength of Khaine: Cleaving Blow
• Bloodshield of Khaine: Ward save 5+ versus each wound taken
• Duration: lasts to your following Start of Turn sub-phase

• Restriction: this model, even though it is a Heavy Chariot
• Limits: ≤1 such chariot per unit
• Condition: while it is part of the unit it joined
• Select: may enter an Infantry unit having unit strength ≥10 (optional)
• Result:
• it is always positioned in the front rank centre
• it does not have the Lumbering rule

• Restriction: this model
• Result:
• itself: Ward save 5+ versus every wound taken
• a unit it has joined: Ward save 6+ versus every wound taken
