Scrollhammer: House Dagoth

These guys.

Introduction

This is a work in progress of Sixth House, for Scrollhammer, by Dagoth Guy.

General Rules

Ash Creature Racial Traits:

Ash Creatures have Fearless and are unaffected by disease.

Blight Diseases:

Every turn, all models in base contact with a model that has been infected by a Blight Disease must roll 1d6; On a roll of 6 the model in base contact contracts the same Blight Disease as the infected model. Blight Diseases can not be cured by ordinary means of curing disease.

Blight Diseases

Ash Woe Blight: Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Ash Woe Blight are afflicted with -2 Magicka until cured.

Ash-chancre: Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Ash-chancre are afflicted with -2 Leadership until cured.

Black-Heart Blight: Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Black-Heart Blight are afflicted with -1 Strength and -1 Toughness until cured.

Chanthrax Blight: Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Chanthrax Blight are afflicted with -1 Initiative, -1/3 of their natural movement speed, and -1 Attack to a minimum of 1 until cured.

Corprus

When a model has been infected by Corprus it loses all spell casting abilities, becomes Immune to Disease, and gains +1S and +1T. Corprus can not be cured by any means.

At the end of a player's turn should they have units infected by Corprus perform a Leadership test for each infected model. (Models of the same unit can be rolled together). On a failure the model(s) is/are removed from the game, and the Sixth House player that infected the model(s) gains the same number of Corprus tokens.

Once a Sixth House player has accumulated at least 5 Corprus tokens they may roll a dice at the start of their turn. On 4+ they may immediately then Deep Strike a 5-20 unit of Corprus stalkers, each model costing one Corprus token. This may be performed multiple times, so long as the Sixth House player has at least 5 Corprus tokens, or a roll of 1-3 is made
