Monstrous Creature 
All monstrous creatures have the ‘move through cover’ special rule. 


Instead of firing a single weapon, monstrous creatures can fire two of their weapons once per Shooting phase. They must, of course, fire both of them at the same enemy target. In addition, monstrous creatures have the ‘relentless’ special rule.


Unless otherwise specified in their special rules, monstrous creatures cannot go to ground, voluntarily or otherwise. In addition, for a monstrous creature to be in cover, at least 50% of its body has to be in cover from the point of view of the majority of the firing models. Also, standing in area terrain does not automatically confer a cover save to monstrous creatures – the 50% rule takes precedence. Cover for them works exactly as for vehicles. As usual, if you cannot clearly tell if 50% of the model’s body is covered, modify its cover save by –1.


All wounds inflicted in close combat by a monstrous creature ignore armour saves, just like those from a power weapon. In addition, monstrous creatures roll an additional D6 for armour penetration (2D6 + Strength) when attacking a vehicle in close combat.

Profiles:

Abilities
Rage Embodied:

Skarbrand and every unit within 24" of the Exiled one (friend and foe alike!) must re-roll failed rolls to hit in close combat.

Fleet:

A unit with this rule may assault in the same turn in which it has run.

Furious Charge:

In a turn in which they assaulted into combat they add +1 to both their Initiative and Strength characteristics when attacking in close combat (note that this has no effect on the Initiative tests for sweeping advances).

Daemonic Gift
Iron Hide:

Models with Iron Hide receive a 3+ Armour save.

Breath of Chaos:

Breath of Chaos is a template weapon. Any models fully or partially under the template suffer one wound on a D6 roll of 4+, with no Armour or Cover saves allowed! Vehicles touched by the template suffer a glancing hit on a D6 roll of 4+.

Instrument of Chaos:

If the Daemon bearing this gift is involved in a fight which results in a draw, its side counts as having won by one wound. If both sides include an Instrument of Chaos, the result remains a draw.
