    If you could make his weapons potentially harmful to his own unit that might suit the blessing / curse thing and the tantrum thing

    Like if he rolls 3 sixes to hit, his own unit is hit by all of his predatory fighter attacks. If he is NOT in a unit, the extra attacks are lost.

    This is a significant debuff especially as he can roll up frenzy. Makes him more likely to be run alone and lose lookout sir and rank bonuses.

    At the start of each friendly phase, roll a D6 and consult the table to see the result.
    Nailling this down a bit tighter would be good.

    "At the start of each friendly Movement phase (or friendly game turn), roll a D6 and consult the table to see the result. The effect lasts until the next friendly movement phase"

    New rule added: Blind rage
    Also the chart rule has been slightly altered.

    Many thanks for helping everyone! Ataxa is a happy Saurus!

    So then we have failed. This cursing business is trickier than it seems.


    I like the blind rage rule - it is much more elegant than my idea.

    Ergh... Those rules seem more disadvantageous than not.
    The predatory fighter rule seems painful. Perhaps giving him the gor-rok predatory-on-5's rule would even it out? Especially seeing that he's only got a 4+/5++, he's not particularly survivable, gotta give the poor bugger something!

    Hmm I will put a similar 5+ rule in his magic weapon, thanks.
    I also noticed about his Bling Rage rule, what happens if there is another character in that same unit? Maybe a roll to see which attacks hit who. 1-3 *insert characters name* 4-6 Saurus model/ Temple Guard.

    I can easily guess Ataxa will not be suitable for a TG unit with a Slann. 1. Inappropriate dragging into battle from frenzy and might accidently punch the Slann

    And this is exactly why girls shouldn't be allowed into war gaming. What does Bling Rage do? If the enemy has shinier stuff does the unit suffer from Envy?

    Imagine what would happen if Ataxa broke a nail!

    You've already said it is distributed as per shooting. Leave it at that.

    Bob, you're right. Breaking a nail might cause a stupidity test hehehehehehehehehehehehe

    Breaking a nail causes, at best, frenzy

    At the risk of losing what little girl cred I currently possess...

    Frenzy and a roll on the "I can't go out looking like this!" table.

    A table of which one also has to roll, in the scenario where both hero/lords of opposing armies, has the exact same magic items O.O

    That could be another form of Bling Rage.

    I never realised what was going on until it was pointed out that I misspelled Blind. I hardly pay attention to my spelling sometimes; especially when half asleep.

    Anyway, added the 5+ or 6+ on successful hits for Predatory Fighter. He will be getting his first test run tomorrow, wish Ataxa luck for smashing some Chaos and hopefully not his own unit.
