Disciples of the Maw Lords

Slaughtermaster (Great Maw)

Around camp, Butchers are given a wide berth, for it is best not to get too close in case they are looking for extra ingredients, as fingers or whole limbs have been known to go missing. In battle, however, Butchers are most often found right in the thick of the fighting, where they use their cleavers and magic to great effect. The largest, most fearsome and most powerful Butchers are given the additional title of Slaughtermaster, and there are few things that walk or crawl that such expert killers have not chopped up and prepared for a ritual feast.

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.
• 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.
• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.
• Ogre Charge
  When attacking braced charge defenders, this unit only loses half of its charge bonus.
• Wallbreaker
  Allows the unit to attack and destroy walls in melee.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Spellcaster
  This unit can cast spells.
• Ironfist
  The ironfist is used by the Ogres to parry blows and block missiles.
• Ogre Charge
  When attacking braced charge defenders, this unit only loses half of its charge bonus.
• Armour-Piercing
  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.
