Yer comin' with me!

In order to use this Attack Attribute, the unit must be at least as wide as it is deep at the start of the Round of Combat. Close Combat Attacks made by models with this Attack Attribute can never wound on worse than 4+. In addition, when a model with this Attack Attribute is removed as a casualty during the Melee Phase due to an enemy Melee Attack, it must immediately, before removal, perform a single Close Combat Attack with the following rules and restrictions: • The attack is always resolved with Strength 5 and Armour Penetration 2. • The owner must choose one of the following options: 1. The attack is allocated towards the model that caused the casualty. 2. The attack is allocated towards a R&F model in that model's unit. The hit is distributed onto the unit. In either case, the model with Yer comin' with me! is considered in base contact with the attacked model, and the models count as Engaged in the same Facings as their units. • This Attack Attribute cannot be used for casualties caused by Impact Hits.

Ancestral Memory

A General with Ancestral Memory affects the number of Grudges held by a Dwarven Holds army (see Ancient Grudge above).

Seen It All

Friendly units within 6" of a non-Fleeing Greybeard unit may reroll failed Panic Tests.

Ancient Grudge

Dwarven Holds armies have a number of Grudges which confer a bonus when attacking specific enemies. The total number of Grudges held by a Dwarven Holds army is calculated in the following manner:
• One Grudge for a General with Ancestral Memory on the Army List
• One Grudge for each King on the Army List
• Two Grudges for each War Throne on the Army List
Right before the battle (during step 7 of the Deployment Phase Sequence), you must choose a single unit from the opponent’s Army List for each Grudge in your army (this may also be a Character). The models of this unit are considered “marked”. All models in the Dwarven Holds army gain Hatred against marked models, and against models joined to units with more than half of their models marked.

Right before the battle (during step 7 of the Deployment Phase Sequence), the model may Entrench a single friendly War Machine. The War Machine counts as being in Hard Cover. The War Machine loses this instance of Hard Cover permanently if it performs an Advance or March Move or a Random Movement.
