Petrified Sorcerer

The Petrified Sorcerer should be mounted on a 40x40mm base and has Unit Strength 4. It may not leave its unit for the duration of the game, and is always placed in the second rank of the unit, as centrally as possible. While there are rank and file models left in the unit (except the Command Group), always remove one in preference to the Petrified Sorcerer taking a wound. Only when the rest of the unit has been killed does the Petrified Sorcerer start taking wounds, even in close combat. A unit carrying a Petrified Sorcerer gains +1 to their Combat Resolution Bonus, Fear and Magic Resistance (2).

When taking Break tests, models with this rule count as having lost the combat with 1 point fewer than they actually have.

Units entirely composed of models with this rule do not need to pass a LD test in order to march, regardless of the proximity of enemy units.

Units with this rule treat units without it as Expendable.

All attacks made by spells and magic items are considered to be magical attacks, as are all attacks that are specifically noted as being magical attacks. Shots fired from magical items are also considered to be magical attacks, unless their description specifically states otherwise. Hits inflicted by rolls on the Miscast table are treated as magical attacks.

Note that spells are not physical attacks unless clearly specified.
