THE GORRUM EMPIRE BESTIARY

Warhammer: The Gorrum Empire
Contact The Old Sage

The land of The Gorrum Empire has a wide selection of monsters living within, including the mighty  Wyverns.

When the warhost of The Gorrum Empire marches off to war, some of these monsters are tamed and then taken along as mounts for great heroes.

Fear: Dragonnels are large and frightening monsters with scaly skins and hideously sharp teeth Dragonnels and troops riding Dragonnels therefore cause fear as described in the Warhammer rules.

Stupidity: Dragonnels are not very bright creatures and sometimes become confused or go inexplicably wild. In battle they are inclined to be lazy and sluggish until they have tasted blood, needing to be goaded into their first action. They are therefore subject to stupidity as described in the Warhammer rulebook until they have fought a round of hand-to-hand combat. This means a Stupidity test must be taken at the start of each turn, using the Ld value Of the Dragonnel's rider. Once a Dragonnel has become involved in a round of hand-to-hand combat (either on its own or as part of a Unit ) it is no longer subject to stupidity and may be used normally for the rest of the battle.

Save: Dragonnels are large, thick-skinned and very difficult to kill. They are Cold-blooded creatures and hardly seem to be affected at all by wounds that would cause a warm-blooded creature to writhe in agony. A Dragonnel rider therefore receives an extra bonus onto his armour saving roll, +2 rather than +1 for other mounts such as horses. So, for example, a Gorrum rider wearing light armour and a shield has an armour save of 3+ compared to 4+ for a Gorrum wearing the same armour and riding a horse, and 5+ for the same Gorrum fighting on foot.
