Orc Boar Chariot

During a turn in which it charged, a model with this special rule may re-roll any rolls To Wound of a natural 1, and improves the Armour Piercing characteristic of its weapon(s) by 1.

Note that this special rule only applies to non-magical weapons and does not apply to a model’s mount (should it have one). If the model is using a magic weapon, this special rule ceases to apply.

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

If during the Declare Charges & Charge Reactions sub-phase of its turn, a unit that includes one or more Impetuous models is able to declare a charge, roll a D6. On a roll of 1-3, the unit must declare a charge. On a roll of 4+, the unit may act as normal.

This unit does not have to make a Panic test when a friendly Goblin unit is destroyed or Breaks and flees from combat whilst within 6" of it. Nor does this unit have to make a Panic test when it is fled through by a friendly Goblin unit.

Note that, for the purposes of this rule, a Goblin unit is considered to be any unit that is made up entirely of Goblins of any kind, mounted or otherwise. This includes any war machine or chariot that is crewed entirely by Goblins. Should a Goblin unit be joined by an Orc character, it is no longer considered to be a Goblin unit.

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.

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.

During a turn in which it charged, a War Boar’s Tusks (hand weapon) have a Strength characteristic of S+1 and an Armour Piercing characteristic of -1.

Note that this special rule only applies to attacks made by a War Boar, not to their rider, a chariot or its crew.

Unless it is fleeing, a Warband gains a positive (+) modifier to its Leadership characteristic equal to its current Rank Bonus, up to a maximum of Leadership 10. However, a Warband cannot use this modifier to its Leadership should it ever choose to make a Restraint test. In addition, if the majority of the models in a unit have this special rule, it may re-roll its Charge roll.

Note that unless a character also has this special rule, their Leadership cannot be modified by this special rule. A Warband can use either its own modified Leadership, the modified Leadership of a Warband character, or the unmodified Leadership of a non-Warband character, whichever is the higher.
