Daughters of Khaine “Gotcha” moments:
- Morathi-Khaine and The Shadow Queen share a health pool of 12 wounds. All damage is applied to that shared health pool, they can never take more than 3 wounds per player turn for any reason, and effects which slay a model outright deal 3 damage instead.
- Morathi-Khaine has a command ability which allows a unit wholly within 24” of her to shoot or pile in and attack during my hero phase. This is a significant damage source.
- Mindrazor (spell, CV8) significantly increases a unit’s damage by granting it +1 damage on the charge and an additional rend (at all times). This is a significant damage source.
- The Bloodwrack Medusa has a horde clearing ranged attack. 12” range, roll a die for each model from the target unit within range, deal a mortal wound for each 5+.
- Mirror Dance (spell, CV6) allows me to choose two heroes wholly within 18” from the caster and set them up anywhere on the table that is more than 9” from enemy models.
- Witch aelves may run and charge as long as one or more musicians are alive in the unit.
- Khinerai Lifetakers may be set up in reserve and will arrive at the end of my movement phase in one of the first three turns. They can be set up anywhere more than 9” from enemy models.
- After Khinerai Lifetakers attack in the combat phase, on a 4+ they may make a 6” retreat.
