This exceptional weapon has been wielded by heroes against the enemies of numerous leagues and has been the last word in many a failed negotiation with obdurate foes.

If it does, spend up to 3YP and, until the end of the phase, add the number of YP you just spent to the Damage characteristic of the bearer’s ranged weapons

Ancestral Crest

Stratagems

eitherPlayer

Void Hardened

1 CP

ShootingFight

Between their resilient armour and technology and their capacity to stoically endure pain and suffering, the Kin can weather devastating attacks.

When:

Your opponent’s Shooting phase or the Fight phase, just after an enemy unit has selected its targets, if units from your army have Fortify Takeover.

Target:

One LEAGUES OF VOTANN unit from your army that was selected as the target of one or more of the attacking unit’s attacks.

Effect:

Until the attacking unit has finished making its attacks, each time an attack targets your unit, worsen the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack by 1.

Honour of the Hold

Fight phase.

Target:

One LEAGUES OF VOTANN unit from your army that has not been selected to fight this phase.

Effect:

Each time you use this Stratagem, you can spend 3YP. Select one enemy unit within Engagement Range of your unit.

If you spent YP during this use of this Stratagem, improve the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack by 2 instead.

Your Turn

Ordered Retreat

1 CP

Target:

That LEAGUES OF VOTANN unit.

Effect:

Until the end of the turn, your unit is eligible to shoot and declare a charge in a turn in which it Fell Back.

Some foes are so loathed that their ancestors are told to pass a sentence upon them. Marked for death, these enemies suffer the undiluted wrath of the Kin.

When:

Your Shooting phase.

Target:

One LEAGUES OF VOTANN unit from your army that has not been selected to shoot this phase.

Effect:

Each time you use this Stratagem, you can spend 3YP. Until the end of the phase, ranged weapons equipped by models in your unit have the [SUSTAINED HITS 1] ability. If you spent YP during this use of this Stratagem, until the end of the phase, those weapons have the [SUSTAINED HITS 2] ability instead.

Reactive Reprisal

2 CP

Shooting

Once prizes have been seized, the Kin focus their efforts upon maximising their control and respond with redoubled fury to attempts to loosen their grip.

Target:

One LEAGUES OF VOTANN unit from your army that was selected as the target of one or more of the attacking unit’s attacks.
