Disciples of Hashut Infantry

Infernal Guard

The Infernal Guard as it is known, is amongst the most legendary warrior-cult within the Chaos Dwarf Empire, having the sworn task of defending the citadel to the death from any that would assail it, and to carry out the will of the Lord of the Black Fortress without question. The Infernal Guard's ranks are made up from Chaos Dwarfs to whom some stain of dishonour or failure has been attached, an occurrence which in their unforgiving society can result from merely being close kin to a failed battle commander, knowing defeat under the eyes of a Sorcerer-Prophet, presiding over labourers who have revolted or a furnace that has exploded through overuse.

Attributes

  Witnessing other friendly units rout will only affect this unit's leadership if they also have the Contempt attribute.
• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Charge Defence Against Large Foes
  When standing and bracing against a charge of large enemies (such as cavalry or monsters) this unit will negate the enemy's charge bonus.
• Contempt
  This unit won't lose leadership from witnessing a friendly unit rout unless the routing unit also has Contempt.
