Lizardmen

From their jungle-continent of Lustria, the Lizardmen look outwards and see a world gone awry. As the ultimate enemies of the Dark Gods and the true inheritors of the planet, the Lizardmen have determined their only recourse is to go to war to set things right. It is their sacred duty to fulfil the enigmatic plans of the Old Ones, and any who stand in their way can expect no mercy. Heed the drums and the reptilian roars of the jungle and join the gathering Lizardmen armies as they march forth for battle. A Lizardmen host deployed for battle is a formidable sight, a striking battle force filled with colour and variety. A screen of nimble skirmishers that harass the enemy with blowpipe and javelin spreads out first, followed by rank after rank of merciless Saurus warriors, and their war leaders are battle-scarred veterans who will fight to the end. Saurus riding the slow-witted yet powerful Cold Ones form devastatingly powerful cavalry regiments. They are guided by the mightiest of mages, the Slann Mage-Priests, who unleash blasts of sorcerous energy the likes of which few other wizards can equal. Terrifying creatures such as the vicious, fire-breathing Salamanders, the towering Kroxigor and the gargantuan Stegadons fight alongside the Lizardmen. In the air above winged beasts screech, while out of the jungles stomp hulking reptilian monsters. They are pitiless killers, savage creatures of an elder age. Yet the Lizardmen do not war for plunder or territory, but instead fight for a higher cause – a world order laid out ages ago by their long-lost cosmic masters.

Magical Weapons count only as mundane weapons of their type when targeting Lord Kroak in close combat.

Ceremonial Mace of Malachite

All shooting or close combat attacks against Lord Kroak, or any unit he joins, suffer a -1 penalty to their To Hit rolls. This means that enemy models that would normally Hit Lord Kroak on automatically will only do so on a 2+.

Golden Death Mask

The Amulet gives Lord Kroak Magic Resistance (3). In addition, the Amulet of Itza adds one dice to the Lizardmen player's Dispel dice pool each turn.

Amulet of Itza

Against enemy models with the Daemonic, Undead or Vampiric special rules, all hits from the Standard of the Sacred Serpent are resolved at Strength 5.

Glyph of Potec

All enemy units in base contact with Lord Kroak takes D6 Strength 3 hits at the start of your Shooting phase.

Standard of the Sacred Serpent

Lord Kroak

The Deliverance of Itza is a direct damage spell that targets all enemy units within 12" of the caster's front arc. Each target suffers 2D6 Strength 4 hits. If a target has the Daemonic, Undead or Vampiric special rules, it suffers 3D6 hits instead. Lord Kroak can choose to extend the range of this spell to 18"; if he does so, the casting value is increased to 18+. Alternatively, Lord Kroak can choose to extend the range of this spell to 24", in which case the casting value is increased to 24+.

Monstrous Infantry

Ranks As monstrous infantry are so much larger than normal troops, they require fewer warriors to fill out a rank. Where Infantry need at least five models in order to be able to gain rank bonus, a unit composed purely of monstrous infantry needs only three models. Essentially, wherever the rules say 'a rank of five or more models' treat it as reading 'a rank of three or more models'. Supporting Attacks A monstrous infantry model can make as many supporting attacks as are on its profile, up to a maximum of three, rather than the usual one supporting attack. Special Rules Monstrous Infantry are subject to the following special rules: Fear, Swiftstride. Unit Strength Monstrous Infantry have a Unit Strength of 3. Line of Sight Monstrous Infantry have a Line of Sight value of 2. Base Size  Monstrous Infantry have an approved base size of 40x40mm or 50x50mm.

Special Character

The Warhammer Army books each include the rules for several Special Characters within their pages. They are famous, named war leaders and mighty mages, tales of whose legendary (or nefarious) deeds have travelled far and wide, such as the Emperor Karl Franz, Grom the Paunch of Misty Mountain, the infamous Vampire Lord Vlad von Carstein and many more besides. Special Characters are exceptional individuals but, more importantly for our army selection purposes, they are unique – each can be included in an army only once.
