Combat System
Combat System
This combat system is an update of my previous combat system and uses all the other
rules for City of the Damned featured in WD 224 and 225. Its fully compatible with WD
224 and 225.
Roll to hit as normal, each hit may cause damage. Roll a D6 and add the attackers
Strength then subtract the defenders Toughness and Wounds look up the sum on the
Injury Table. You may save as normal with armour. Note that Wounds are never reduced
they are a measure of the force needed to bring down the model.
Injury Table
1 and lower No effect
The model shrugs off the blow.
2-3
Fleshwound
Reduce WS and BS by -1 model is otherwise still standing.
Down.
6 Crippled Reduce WS and BS by -1 in addition the model is Stunned.
7 and higher Out of Action The model is removed as he falls unconscious to the ground.
Serious wound Reduce WS and BS by -1 in addition the model is Knocked
Knocked Down
Lie the model face up to represent being Knocked Down as opposed to Stunned. In your
next turns Recovery Phase the model may stand up and use up to half his normal move,
he may not run or charge. While being knocked down the model may not fight and all
sucessful hits against a Knocked Down model will take him Out of Action.. An opponent
in base contact with a Knocked Down model may move away from combat if he wishes
but not if he is still in base contact with a model standing up. If standing up in base
contact with an enemy there is HtH but noone count as charging and the standing up
model strikes last regardless of weapon or Initative.
If you are using the simoultaneous system in the next Recovery Phase the model may
stand up on the roll of 4+. He may fight in HtH but need natural 6's to hit.
Stunned
Turn the model face down as opposed to face up for Knocked Down. A model that is
stunned may only crawl up to 2". In the Recovery Phase turn the model face up and treat
it as Knocked Down from now on. While being Stunned the model may not fight and a
hit directed against, no need to roll to hit, a Stunned model in subsequent turns will take
him Out of Action.. An opponent in base contact with a Stunned model may move away
from combat if he wishes but not if he is still in base contact with a model standing up.
4-5
If you are using the simoultaneous system in the next Recovery Phase the model may
only be turned into Knocked Down on the roll of 4+. A Stunned model may not fight at
all.
Out of Action
The model is removed as he falls uncounsios to the ground.
Hammer, staff, mace and club treats a result of 5-6 as stunned.
Critical Hits
If you roll a natural 6 when rolling To Hit you have caused a Critical Hit which stand a
far greater chance of causing damage so roll on the Critical Hit Table to find out the
effect. Note that you do not cause a Critical Hit if you needed a 6 to hit at all. Also a
natural 6 on the Injury Roll (D6+S) also causes a Critical Hit. If you manage to roll two
Critical Hits add the effects together.
D6 Critical Hit Table
The hit sends the defenders weapon flying through the air: for the rest of this battle he must use another weapon
or fight barehanded. A model with no weapons that are hit by this Critical Hit add +1 on the Injury Table, note
that natural weapons do not count as bare handed or no weapons.
2-3 The hit shatters the defenders shield: ignores armour, in addition the defender looses its shield for the rest of this
battle. If the defender was not equipped with a shield, then in addition add +1 on the Injury Table.
4-5 The hit penetrates the armour and delivers a good hit: no armour save and add +1 on Injury Table
6 The hit penetrates the armour and strikes a vital organ: no armour save and add +2 on Injury Table
Simultaneous System
As we almost always fight multi part combat the normal alternating turn system doesnt
work. At the start of each turn each player rolls a D20 and place the dice near his rooster
sheet. In each phase the player with the highest number moves followed by the next
highest number. By rolling the dice in each turn you are never sure when you are going to
move and must plan for that.
Of course this causes some problems when the rules assume that your opponent gets a
full turn before its your turn. The combat system suffers from this but I have added rules
for both the Alternating System and the Simultaneous System.
