Black Dragons are extremely useful for disposing of enemies with relatively low Toughness but several wounds. Foes with a Toughness of 3 who can sustain only 1 wound are therefore slain automatically on the roll of 4 or more. Against a Man or Elf with a Toughness of 3, for example, dice rolls of 4 will inflict 1 wound, 5 inflicts 2 wounds and 6 causes 3 wounds. Each model hit by the oily smoke suffers a number of wounds equivalent to D6 minus the target's Toughness.

Black Dragons breathe thick oily smoke which can overwhelm and choke an enemy.

Units frozen by a Dragon require a D6 roll of 2+ to thaw out. Frozen units are automatically frozen for 1 turn and subsequently must test to see whether they thaw out at the beginning of the player's following turns.

A frozen unit may fight if attacked but will require 6's to hit, otherwise it may not do anything else until it thaws out. Any unit which is hit by a freezing chill is automatically frozen to the spot. Any frozen model suffers 1 wound on the D6 roll of a 6 regardless of its Toughness with no saving throws for armour. White dragons breathe a freezing chill mist so cold that enemies are numbed and frozen.Models removed as a result of breath casualties in the shooting phase are not counted towards the combat result - the effects of the attack itself being considered destructive enough without making life any harder for the enemy. Dragons fighting hand-to-hand can continue to breathe in the shooting phase, but must direct their attacks against the unit they are fighting. Any model lying under the template area is hit on a D6 score of a 4 or more.ĭragons breathe in the shooting phase. Take the teardrop-shaped flame template and place it with the broad end over your target and the narrow end at the Dragon's mouth. Except where noted otherwise, breath attacks are all worked out the same way.

For example, Fire Dragons can be red, orange, or brazen.Ī Dragon has one of the following breath attacks. The type of breath depends on the colour of the Dragon, although there are other colours, and even those described here can vary tremendously. Only if the attack discounts saves altogether is the save ignored.ĭragons breathe a deadly flame, gas or lightning discharge. Regardless of the Strength of the attack, a Dragon will always have the same save. However, because dragonscale is so extraordinarily hard, the Dragon's save is not modified by the usual saving throw modifier for Strength. A Dragon therefore has an armour saving throw of 4 or more on a D6.

Scaly skin: Dragons have extremely hard scales which act like armour, protecting them from attack.

Fly: Dragons have wings and can fly up to 24" as described in the Warhammer rulebook.

Remember that creatures which cause terror automatically cause fear as well.

Terror: Dragons are huge and frightening monsters that cause terror as described in the Psychology section of the Warhammer rulebook.

Because of this variation in size three profiles are included for Dragons, including the larger and more powerful but slightly slower Great and Emperor Dragons. Few Dragons today can approach the size of Kalgalanos the Black, whose vast scaly body was bigger than a ship and whose smoke shrouded head was larger than a house. They continue to grow throughout their life, and Dragons of any colour may reach huge proportions if they live for long enough. Red or Fire Dragons breathe roaring flame, Green Dragons belch corrosive fumes, while Blue Dragons spit lightning bolts.Ī Dragon's size is proportional to its age. Different coloured Dragons have different metabolisms. These differences do not depend on a Dragon's breeding, for the father of all Dragons was the fabled Kalgalanos the Black, and his spawn were red, golden, silver, white, blue and all the colours under the sun. Those that remain are reclusive creatures which mostly spend their time asleep in dark holes deep beneath the mountains.ĭragons are a diverse species and apt to display enormous variation in colour and abilities.

Today they are few in number compared to times of old, when the air was full of soaring Dragons and the deep cries of Cold Drakes as they tussled for supremacy of the primaeval skies. Dragons are an incredibly ancient race whose forefathers lived many thousands of years before Elves or Men first set foot in the Old World.
