To determine what happens in each Close Combat phase, pick a unit in base contact with the Bonegrinder Giant and roll a D6 on one of the following tables. Which table you use depends on the size of the Bonegrinder Giant's victim. If no suitable target is in base contact, roll again on the chart until you get another result.
