Grave Guard

If a model with this special rule rolls a natural 6 when making a roll To Wound for an attack made in combat, it has struck a ‘Cleaving Blow’. Enemy models whose troop type is ‘regular infantry’, ‘heavy infantry’, ‘light cavalry’, ‘heavy cavalry’ or ‘war beasts’ are not permitted an armour or Regeneration save against a Cleaving Blow (Ward saves can be attempted as normal).

Note that if an attack wounds automatically, this special rule cannot be used.

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

A unit with this special rule reduces the number of wounds suffered due to the Unstable special rule by the number shown in brackets (shown here as ‘X’).

Note that this special rule is not cumulative. If two or more models in a unit have this special rule, use the highest value for the entire unit. For example, if a character with Indomitable (2) joins a unit with Indomitable (1), the whole unit uses the character’s Indomitable (2) special rule.

Models with this special rule are ‘Undead’. Undead models cannot march (unless they have the Fly (X) special rule and choose to move by flying). In addition, all Undead models have the following universal special rules:

• Fear
• Immune to Psychology
• Unbreakable
• Unstable A character with this special rule cannot join a unit without this special rule, and vice versa.

Immediately after a Wound is lost, but before models with zero Wounds remaining are removed from play, a model with this special rule may make a "Regeneration save" roll by rolling a D6 and comparing the result to its "Regeneration value", shown in brackets after the name of this special rule (shown here as "X+"). If the Regeneration save roll equals or exceeds the model’s Regeneration value, the lost Wound is recovered, but is still counted for the purposes of calculating the combat result. Rules that affect armour values do not affect Regeneration values unless stated otherwise.
