Scenario - Enter the Necromancer’s Tower

🗺️ Terrain

• Place a building in the centre of the board to represent the Necromancer's Tower.

🧙‍♂️ Special Rules

The wizard’s wards affect warbands entering the tower’s vicinity. The tower acts after the last warband each turn.

🔥 Blast of Schwarzlache

• At the start of each turn, place a 5" circular template over the nearest standing model between 12" and 48" from the tower.
• If multiple models are equidistant, randomise.
• Scatter the template 2D6" in a random direction before impact.
• Models fully under the template take a Strength 4+ hit.
• Models partially covered may avoid the blast on a successful Initiative test.

⚡ Bolt of Schwarzlache

• Also at the start of each turn, the tower fires a magical bolt at the farthest visible standing model.
• If the model is in close combat, randomise the target among combatants.
• Treated as a BS 4+, Strength 4+, 48" range magic missile.

🧟 March of the Dead

• At the start of each turn, roll a D6:
  • On 5–6, a Zombie appears at the tower door.
• During the movement phase, each Zombie:
  • Moves D6+1" toward the nearest standing model.
  • If within charge range, they will charge.
