Clan Angrund Command

Halkenhaf Stonebeard

With the Dwarf realm dwindling during the Time of Woes, Halkenhaf Stonebeard and his allies were initially successful in repelling the first few attacks against Eight Peaks. Like every gatekeeper before him, Stonebeard was a fearsome warrior, known for being able to move his axe with such incredible speed in battle that it would appear as a blur around him, like a rotor of a Gyrocopter in flight. Ultimately, the lesser warriors defending the Hold alongside him all perished, leaving him the last Dwarf standing. Refusing to leave his post, Stonebeard fought on, eventually meeting his end at the hand – or mouth, rather – of a hungry Troll. But it is said that he continued to swing his axe around wildly in a frenzy of slaughter, right up until he was picked up and swallowed whole down the monster’s gullet. With the gatekeeper defeated, the Citadel would be captured soon after.

Abilities

• Deadly Onslaught
  Such is the power and ferocity of the champion, that those who stand in his way will falter against the warrior's impact.
• Foe-Seeker
  There are those who wish nothing more than to be at the heart of battle, seeking foes to vanquish.

Attributes

• Causes Fear
  This unit frightens all enemy units, reducing their leadership when nearby. It is also immune to fear. Fear penalties do not stack.
• Causes Terror
  This unit can cause terror, making its melee target rout for a short time. Units that cause terror are immune to terror and fear themselves.
• Encourage

• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.
• Unbreakable

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Armoured & Shielded
  Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Ethereal
  Ethereal units ignore most damage done by non-magical weapons. As they have shed most of their physical form, they are not slowed by terrain-based movement penalties either.
