The Lore of Beasts is the magic of shamans and animal spirits. It is the sorcery of wild and primitive races, of creatures that shun the cities of Men, and of men who have turned their backs upon the ways of their own kind. To randomly generate a spell, roll a D6 and consult the chart below. If you roll the same spell twice for the same Wizard, roll again. 1. Buccos the Oxen Stands (5+) THE OXEN STANDS Cast on 5+ THE EAGLE'S CRY Cast on 6+ The affected unit must take an immediate Leadership test. If passed, the unit only suffers a -1" Movement penalty during their next Movement phase (-2" if it marches or charges). The Movement of flyers is reduced to 12". If failed, the unit/monster immediately makes a compulsory move of 2D6" directly towards its own side's table edge, but halts if this move brings it into contact with a friendly unit, impassable terrain, or within 1" of any enemy. If the unit moves off the tabletop, it counts as having fled the battle. THE BEAR'S ANGER Remains in Play Once cast, the spell lasts until it is dispelled, until the Wizard chooses to end it (which he can do at any time), attempts to cast another spell or the affected model is slain. THE CROW'S FEAST Cast on 7+ THE BEAST COWERS Cast on 7+ If successfully cast, any creatures in the unit (but not their riders) will cower and therefore require 6s to hit in that turn's Close Combat phase. If 6s are required anyway, the creatures may not attack. THE WOLF HUNTS Cast on 9+ If the spell is cast successfully, the unit moves 2D6" towards the Wizard or an enemy unit that it can see. If no enemy are visible then it will not move. If the distance is sufficient to reach the enemy, the unit is deemed to have charged and all the normal charging rules apply, except that the enemy can only stand their ground - no other charge response is possible due to the speed of the spell. |
