SPECIAL RULES
EXPERTICE ON WAR MACHINES
In the beginning of the battle the Alchmagi may join any war machine or battery (remember batteries in 5th edition?) of war machines as any other character. The Alchemagi serves as leader of the unit. If he leads a battery of war machines, he must choose one of the war machines which he operates. The Alchemagi counts as one of the crew as well, so the war machine may suffer one extra casualty without any affect on the firing rate of the war machine. Due to his expertice, this war machine will also ingore the first misfire rolled. Simply re-roll the dice. The second result stands even if you roll a misfire again.
SLAVE EXPERIMENTS
The Alchemagi may choose one of the Slave regiments in the beginning of the battle. He will have experimented on these unfortunate Greenskins. Roll a D6 and consult the chart below to determine the effect. Note that this roll may not be modified for any reason. All the models in the unit are affected, excluding any characters except the unit champion.
1) Lunacy. The minds of the Greenskins break in the unspeakable treatment of the Alchemagi. The unit becomes subject to stupidity as detailed in the Warhammer Rulebook.
2-3) Psychotic Hatred. The Alchemagi has tormented the minds and the bodies of the Greenskins until they became psychopathic and dangerous, ready to vent their anger on anybody that comes in their way. The unit suffers from hatred as detailed in the Warhammer Rulebook.
4-5) Toughened. After the treatment of chemicals and spells the Greenskins are disfigured and deformed beyond description. The unit causes fear as detailed in the Warhammer Rulebook.
6) Frenzy! The unit becomes insanely violent. The Greenskin unit becomes subject to the rules of frenzy as described in the Warhammer Rulebook.
