Clan Moulder Heroes

Assassin

Skaven Assassins are the pinnacle of Clan Eshin warriors, elite killers in a class of their own. The few who know of the existence of the black-clad Assassins fear them above all others. Rumours of their cut-throat abilities are whispered in fear: the Clan Eshin devils are invisible and their very shadows are poisonous. The art of sabotage, arson, and poison all form part of an Assassin's deadly bag of tricks. Many Assassins-in-training are lost as the regimen is gruelling. The final tests are death missions assigned by Clan Eshin's ruling council, presided over by Lord Sneek, the leader of the clan and one of the Lords of Decay. After surviving such actions, an Assassin is considered an acknowledged master in the methodology of murder.

Abilities

• Assassin's Trophy
  It should be no great surprise that those already adept in the art of silent death continue to improve with time and practice.
  Melee Attack -24
  Melee Defence -24
• Concealment Bombs
  When a bomb is smashed, a dark smoke curls out, concealing those who wish to hide and choking everyone else.
• Scurry Away!
  "He who runs away lives to fight another day!" - so the foul, craven adage goes.
  Speed x 110%
• Wounds
  Even the greatest foes can be laid low with terrible injuries, and the greater the damage done, the less able they will be to effectively continue the fray.
  Speed x 90%
  Armour-Piercing Weapon Damage x 80%
  Base Weapon Damage x 80%
• Slippery
  Those who are "slippery" cannot be cornered or pinned - they simply "slip" away…
  Speed x 125%
  Melee Defence +24

Attributes

• Encourage
  This unit provides a leadership bonus to nearby allies. Units within range of both the Lord's aura and an encouraging unit will receive the larger of the two bonuses.
• Vanguard Deployment
  This unit can deploy outside the deployment zone.
• Stalk
  This unit can move hidden in any terrain.
• Strider
  Speed and combat penalties caused by terrain are ignored by this unit.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Vanguard Deployment
  This unit can deploy in an expanded deployment area, allowing it to start the battle within striking distance of the enemy - or somewhere unexpected.
• Stalk
  This unit can move hidden in any terrain.
• Duellist
  This unit is best used to attack individual targets such as Lords or Heroes. As it can only damage very few individuals at a time, it is not suitable against hordes of weak enemies.
• Dodge
  This highly dexterous unit dodges blades and missiles with ease; its luck is known to run out quickly when facing magical weapons, however.
