Lore

Shaped into a likeness of the wondrous Anqā bird, and Created by the Imperial School of Military Engineering in association with the House of Wisdom, these movable defensive walls are light and extraordinarily resistant to all damage thanks to a richly-decorated ceramic layer on their outer surface and a secret compound of aramic and alchemical steel at its core.

Lore

This heavy, cumbersome helmet always includes a gruesome mask. Crafted from the iron of Dis, it retains some of the searing heat of the Inferno, its touch causing skin to blister and peel.

Praetors and Sorcerers often force these dreadful devices onto their Wretched slaves, wearing the keys in chains on their person to taunt their miserable thralls.

Declare the existence of the Charges and write on a piece of paper which scenery piece it is planted on. The scenery piece can be no bigger than 8” x 8” (an 8” section of trench, a wall, a tree, a building etc). The Sappers have placed explosive charges here before the battle. Whenever you Activate one of your models, you can declare you are detonating the Charges by revealing the name of the scenery piece. For each model that is touching or on top of the scenery piece, roll on the Injury Chart to see what happens to it. The Charge has the Keyword SHRAPNEL.

As equipment, they must remain stationary and wholly on the base of the model that they accompany.

Lore

Given birth by Matagot Hags after devouring living victims whole, these diminutive thralls are driven by an unspeakable thirst for fluids tainted by the Black Grail. They attach themselves to the nobles of the Order of the Fly, endlessly begging for any secretion or discharge of fluid their master might be able to spare. Nobles of the Fly pass their ammunition and blades through the devotee’s digestive system to enhance the deadliness of their weapons.
