The Warhost of Zharr Missile Infantry

Chaos Dwarf Blunderbusses

Chaos Dwarfs generally fight with one of two weapons, both equally destructive in their own way. The first is the double-handed axe, a short-hafted weapon with a heavy metal blade which can crack open armour and cleave a foe in two. The second is the blunderbuss, a short-ranged weapon of devastating effect. The blunderbuss uses a gunpowder charge to fire shards of spiked iron at the enemy, although it can also fire hot coals, lead shot, pieces of scrap metal, and even stones if need be. The weapon is so robustly made that it can be loaded with far more powder and shot than a simple handgun, and its effect is quite different.

Attributes

• Charge Defence vs. Large
  When bracing, this unit negates the charge bonus of any large attacker.
• Contempt
  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

• Armoured & Shielded
  Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage. Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Decent Melee Combatant
  Despite being primarily a missile unit or spellcaster, this unit can also hold its own ground when fighting in melee.
• Armour-Piercing Missiles
  The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
