Battleplans and progression

The following battleplans will be played with the following twists (from Open War)

1. Clash at Dawn (WD January 2019 p 33):
Eager for Battle: Add 2” to the move characteristic of all models, add 1 to all run and charge rolls.

2. Blood and Glory (Core Book p 312)
Storm of Magic: Add 1 to all casting and unbinding rolls. However if a casting or unbinding roll results in a double, then the caster suffers a mortal wound after the spell is attempted and its effects (if any) have been resolved. If the roll was a double 1, then the caster suffers D3 Mortal wounds instead.

3. Treasure Hunt (WD January 2019 p 30)
Dead of nigth: The maximum range of all attacks and spells is limited to 12”.
Roll a dice at the start of each battle round after the first. On a roll of 4 or more, 6” is added to the maximum range limit of all attack and spells. The second time a roll of 4 or more is made, 12” is added; the third time, 18” is added, and so on.

4. Border War (Core Book p 314)
Meeting Battle: Each player must split their army into three contingents. No Contingent can consist of more than half the units in an army.
Each player sets up one contingent at the start of the battle using the normal rules for set-up. A second contingent arrives at the end of the controller's second movement phase, and the last at the end of its controller's third movement phase. Units in the second and third contingent must be set up more then 9” from the enemy, with all models wholly within 9” of any battlefield edge and outside of enemy territory,

5. Hold The Center (WD January 2019 p32)
Lashing Rain: The lashing rain effect takes effect from the start of the first battle round. While it is raining substract 1 from hit rolls in the shooting phase, and substract 1 from all run and charge rolls.
Roll a dice at the start of each battle round after the first. On a roll of 4 or more the rain stops (if it was raining in the last battle round), or starts again (if it was not raining in the last battle round).

Rewards of battle:

After each battles players can roll on the rewards table as presented in WD of February 2019 p 80.

Progression:

After each battle, if you have won, you can upgrade one of the models in your war band to a champion. If you already have a champion or the maximum available champions, roll on the table below to see what “nickname” your champion is awarded. You cannot have the same upgrade twice even if you have multiple champions, If you roll a result you already have, the upgrade is lost, better luck next time. The same unit cannot be affected by the same ability twice:

1. The Fierce: You can re-roll charge ranges for this champion.
2. The Fast: You can re-roll hit rolls of one for this champion. If this champion already could re-roll hit rolls of 1, re-roll all failed hit rolls for this champion.
3. The Resilient: You can re-roll save rolls of one for this champion. If this champion already could re-roll save rolls of 1, re-roll all failed save rolls for this champion.
4. The Butcher: Each time this champion slays an enemy unit, roll a dice, on a 5+ it can immediately pile in and attack again. This ability can only activate once per phase.
5. The Strong: When attacking with this champion, you can choose to acumulate all of his attack into a single powerful attack with the same profile as one of his regular attacks. Add 1 to the rend and 2 to the damage characteristics of that attack.
6. The Great: If your General is slain or fled the battle, you can take your bravery test on the bravery of this model.
