Immediately after the total number of power dice for that phase has been determined, roll all the power dice in the pool. If any of these dice roll a 6, a portion of the power it represents is siphoned into the Black Coach. Power dice that are 'siphoned' by the Black Coach in this fashion can be used in the Magic phase as normal, though keep a note of how many are siphoned in this way. If you have more than one Black Coach in your army, randomly determine which Black Coach gains each siphoned dice. Each dice increases that Black Coach's abilities for the rest of the game, as detailed on the chart below. All of the increases listed are cumulative.

To resolve a Ghostly Howl, roll 2D6+2. For each point by which the result exceeds the target unit's Leadership, the target unit suffers 1 Wound which Ignores Armour Saves. Ghostly Howl is a non-physical Magical Attack and Wounds suffered from it are distributed as if from shooting.

At the start of each of your turns, roll 2D6 and add the current turn number. This is range of the reliquary's dark aura this turn in inches. All enemy units within range of the dark aura immediately take D6 hits, with a Strength equal to the current turn number, distributed as from shooting. Also, place a marker next to all friendly Undead units that were within range of the dark aura at the start of the turn. These units improve their Regeneration saves by one point until the start of their next turn, to a maximum of 4+. If they have no Regeneration save, they are treated as having the Regeneration (6+) special rule instead. Finally, if the 2D6 result was a double, then the fell energies prove too powerful; in addition to the usual effects, the Mortis Engine takes 1 Wound with no saves of any kind allowed. When the Mortis Engine suffers its last unsaved Wound, every unit within 12 plus the turn number in inches, friend or foe, must take 2D6 hits with a Strength equal to the current turn number. These hits are distributed as shooting.

The Necrofex Colossus' number of Random Attacks and Stomp hits may be re-rolled.
