Frydaal the Chainmaker

A model with this special rule has a Ward save against any wound suffered. The armour value of this Ward save is shown in brackets after the name of this special rule (X+). In addition, a Wizard with this special rile may wear armour without penalty.

A hand weapon carried by a model with this special rule has the Magical Attacks special rule and an Armour Piercing characteristic of -1.

Note that this special rule may only apply to a single, non-magical hand weapon and does not apply to a model's mount (should it have one). If the model is using two hand weapon or any other sort of weapon, this rule cease to apply.

During the Command sub-phase of their turn, a character with this special rule may choose to roll on the Gaze of the Gods table:

• 1: Damned by Chaos: The Champion is beset with visions of the Reals of Chaos. This model becomes subject to the Stupidity special rule for the reminder of the game. If they already have this special rule, they suffer a -1 modifier to their Leadership (to a maximum of 2).

• 2: Unnatural Quickness: To the Champion, time itself seems to slow around them. Until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, this model gains +1 modifier to their Initiative characteristic (to a maximum of 10).

• 3: Iron Skin: Beneath their baroque armour, the Champion's skin becomes like iron. Until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, this model gains +1 modifier to their Toughness characteristic (to a maximum of 10).

• 4: Murderous Mutations: Long tentacles whip from beneath this Champion's armour to grasp at their enemies. For the reminder of the game, this model gains +1 modifier to their Weapon Skill characteristic (to a maximum of 10).

• 5: Dark Fury: A terrible rage grips the Champion. For the reminder of the game, this model gains +1 modifier to their Attacks characteristic (to a maximum of 10).

• 6: Apotheosis: The Champion is blessed with Daemonic vitality. For the reminder of the game, this model gains +1 modifier to both their Strength and Leadership chracteristics (to a maximum of 10).

During the Command sub-phase of their turn, if they are not engaged in combat, this character may nominate a single fleeing friendly unit that is within their Command range. The nominated unit immediately makes a Rally test. If this test is failed, the unit may attempt to rally again as normal during the Rally sub-phase.

A unit with this special rule may be held in reserve rather than be deployed at the start of the game. From the beginning of round two onwards, roll a D6 during each of your Start of Turn sub-phases for each unit of Ambushers in your army that is held in reserve.

On a roll of 1-3, the unit is delayed until your next turn at least.  On a roll of 4+, the unit arrives, entering the battle as reinforcements during the Compulsory Moves sub-phase. The unit may be placed on any edge of the battlefield, chosen by its controlling player, but cannot be placed within 8" of an enemy model. If any Ambushers are still held in reserve by the start of round five, they arrive automatically.

Any enemy standard captured by Frydaal or any unit she has joined is worth 100 Victory Points as a trophy of war.

Unless she is fleeing, friendly units of Chaos Marauders, Marauder Horsemen, Marauder Tribe Huscarls and Marauder Tribe Berserkers gain a +1 modifier to their Leadership characteristic whilst within Frydaal's Command range (to a maximum of 10).

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.

Models with the Mark of Chaos Undivided can re-roll any failed Fear, Panic or Terror tests.

0-1 unit of Chaos Marauderse or Marauder Horsemen in the same muster list as Frydaal may have the Ambushers special rule for free. In addition, if Frydaal is your General, you may apply a +1 or -1 modifier to the result when rolling to determine if she or any unit of Chaos Marauders, Marauder Horsemen, Marauder Tribe Huscarls or Marauder Tribe Berserkers with the Ambushers special rule that is currently held in reserve arrives this turn as reinforcements or is delayed.
