If a unit is selected, it can't run for the rest of the turn

Command Traits

Your General gets to pick on of the following:

1. Nothing Left Standing: In the hero phase, if your General is 6" of a terrain feature and 5 other Destruction models, the terrain no longer provide any cover.
2. Might is Right: Add 1 to the wound rolls made fro the general's melee weapons.
3. Wild Fury: Add 1 to the general's hit rolls if they suffered any wounds.
4. Bellowing Tyrant: In the hero phase, a Destruction unit within 6" adds 1 to charge & run rolls, and uses the general's Bravery.
5. Big and Brutish: Add 1 to general's Wounds.
6. Ravager: Add an additional 1 to the Rampaging Destroyer roll.

Artefacts of Destruction

A hero gets to pick on of the following:

1. Hammerblade: select a melee weapon, Instead of attacking normally, roll a dice for each model(friend or foe) within 3". On a 5 or 6, the unit the model belongs to suffers a Mortal Wound.
2. Battered Talisman: Ignore Mortal wounds on a roll of 5+.
3. Rockeye: In a hero phase, pick an enemy unit within 12". Add 1 to hit rolls against the unit by this model
4. Bellowing Blade: In the combat phase, you can re-roll one failed wound roll for every enemy Hero within 12"
5. Collar of Domination: At the start of the enemy movement phase, pick an enemy Monster within 3" and roll two dice. If the total is equal to or greater than the Monster's Bravery, it must retreat.
6. Battle Brew: once per battle during the hero phases, gain +1 or +2 to hit and wound rolls until your next hero phase. If you take +2, take D6 mortal wounds at the end of the turn you use it. Unfortunately there is the far more superior Ghyrstrike from the Realm of Life that gives you the +1 To Hit and To Wound for the entire game! With the added benefit of being usable with Allegiances (but who cares about them right? For the WAAAAAAGH!)
