'''Special Rules:''' 
Beasts of the Sightless Realm, The Hordes Beneath 

Cave Crawlers: Frostbite Spiders treat Difficult Terrain, other than water features, as open ground. Dangerous Terrain tests must be taken as normal.

Spider's Web: If a unit directs any of its attacks in close combat against a unit containing one or more Frostbite Spiders, it gets -1 Initiative until end of turn. Multiple instances of this effect on any one unit do not stack.

Giant Spiders cause Fear. A model mounted on a Giant Frostbite Spider uses a 50mm x 50mm Monstrous Creature base.


===Unique Poisons===

The means of sustenance are scarce beneath the surface, and just as many dreadful substances as benign ones are found in the strange creatures, mushrooms and streams of the world below. The Falmer have long learned to differentiate and extract poisons from everything around them, and to make use of them to torture or kill their enemies with terrifying effectiveness.

Falmer can use a variety of poisons on their weapons. At the beginning of each turn, announce which poisons will be used on which weapons, if a weapon has multiple poisons available to it. A poisoned weapon counts as doing Poison damage, and as such an Immunity to Poison will negate the effect of whatever poison is on it, unless stated otherwise(see Frostbite Venom and Steelbane Acid below). The default "Poisoned(4+)" on many weapons counts as being among the poisons to choose from each turn if it is available, although some more lethal poisons are strictly better.

*Fleshwilt Poison: This exceptionally toxic mixture causes the skin and flesh around the bloodstream in which it was injected to dry and wither, causing its victim to quickly collapse as his heart ceases to beat. A weapon with this poison equipped is Poisoned(3+).

*Chaurus Bile: A refined mixture of the digestive fluids of the Chaurus, this noxious liquid chews through whatever livings thing it touches, causing massive destruction of flesh and pus-filled ruptures of all parts of the body. The poisoned weapon is Poisoned(2+).

*Mindbreak Poison: This poison affects not the body, but rather the mind. In a fit of insanity, the brain affected becomes unable to concentrate. Unsaved wounds inflicted by a weapon coated in this poison cause Magicka Drain(total).

*Lingering Death: Certain ingredients are renowned among assassins for being slow-acting in their effects. The cruel minds of the Falmer have engineered means to use such concoctions in battle, to bring their enemies into a dying coma: a perfect condition for capture. For each wound, saved or not, caused by this weapon, mark the affected model as poisoned by a dose of Lingering Death. At the end of turn, each model affected must take a Toughness test for each dose they have been poisoned by. For each failed test, that model takes a wound (that cannot be re-allocated), no armour save allowed.

*Frostbite Venom: The poison found in the fangs of the Frostbite Spider freezes the foe. Attacks by a weapon with Frostbite Venom are Poisoned(5+), and wounds they inflict, saved or not, Chill the wounded model until the end of next turn. Frostbite Venom counts as dealing Frost Damage, not as being a poisoned weapon.

*Nervegrasp: The Nervegrasp is made from the deadliest of blossoms in the depths and high in the mountains. A weapon coated in Nervegrasp is Poisoned(4+), and wounds inflicted, saved or not, Paralyze until the end of next turn.

*Wearyblood Draught: The Wearyblood Draught is known to create incredible fatigue in its victim, while not outright killing him. A wound by a weapon poisoned in Wearyblood Draught, saved or not, prompts an immediate initiative test after it damage resolution by the affected model. If the test is failed, the model may only make a single attack(regardless of modifiers) the next round of combat.

*Steelbane Acid: Steelbane Acid is among the most caustic poisons in existence, not merely to corrosive to flesh, but equally dangerous to wood, stone, steel and even ebony. A weapon bearing Steelbane Acid is Poisoned(4+). It gains +3 AP, regardless of its status as a poisoned weapon or any Immunity to Poison the enemy might have.

===Magic Items===

The Magic Items available to an Falmer army are sorted into several categories. Classes of weapons, staves, light armor, heavy armor, and shields may only be taken by a model which is holding that type of item, and replaces the one he is holding. A model may take up to 3 consumables. Other items can be taken freely. Certain items may be further restricted to a particular model. Daedric Artifacts are included in the Artifacts supplement of the Core Rules, and are taken wherever specified for a model. 

Items listed as upgrades are enchantments that may be taken as a bonus on a weapon that has not already been enchanted; their cost is in addition to any other costs for the item. Items not listed as upgrades are replacements; their full cost is whatever amount is marked, and they may not be upgraded further. (Replacements are only available to models which could take that class of item to begin with). 


====Weapons and Staves====

Weapon of Frost: Weapon upgrade for +8 pts. Weapon deals Frost damage, and models hit are Chilled until the end of next turn. May be upgraded again to a weapon of Blizzards for +12 pts, causing it to ignore armor saves.

Weapon of Darkness: Weapon upgrade for +8 pts. Models hit are Blinded until the end of next turn.

Weapon of Screeches: Weapon upgrade for +8 pts. Models hit by weapon re-roll successful casting of spells until the beginning of next turn.

Spear of the Snow Prince: Artifact, Spear, Warmonger only. The relic of the great Snow Prince, the last of the Falmer heroes, a warrior without peer who defended Solstheim to the last against the armies of Ysgramor. Many northmen fell before it's ravages. This weapon was scavenged from the Snow Prince's tomb in the latter part of the 3rd era, and has never been seen since. The Spear of the Snow Prince is a Spear that strikes with +1 Strength, ignores armor, and models hit are Paralyzed until end of next turn. It counts as dealing Frost Damage. +60 pts.

He may not, however, Parry any shooting attack that does not roll to hit in the normal manner.
