The easiest way to fit this invention into your
army is to count any Engineer wearing it as a
Slayer
Hero (or Lord if you so choose). Use all the Special
Rules, characteristics, weapon/magic options,
and the like
for the Slayer Character. This approach, of course,
takes up one of your Character slots, unless you
and your gaming friends decide otherwise.
Built to Last (Mostly). Any Engineer fielding
this durable suit of armor counts as having a
3+
Armor Save and a 5+ Ward Save. Any successful Wound
has a 50% chance (D6 roll of 4-6) of reducing
the
Ward Save to 6+.
Too Many Arms! Having so many arms can
be very advantageous. Incoming missiles can easily
be blocked or grabbed out of the air, which improves
the Slayer Armor's Ward Save to 3+ against
missile fire. In combat, the wielder of this most-excellent
invention can choose to either fight with
2 additional Attacks or reduce the number of Attacks
by 1 of each model in base contact with
the
Character.
Go Boom. When the Master Engineer wearing
the Slayer Armor loses his last Wound, the self
destruct mechanism triggers. Place the
centre of the 5" circular template on the
fallen hero. Everyone under the template takes
1 Wound at S6. |
