GIANT BAT Out of the darkest caves fly the twittering, screeching clouds of Giant Bats. These fanged monstrosities, held aloft on great leathery wings, hide in the shadows, then swoop silently down upon their prey and rip them to shreds with teeth and talons.
Giant Bat Ambush A; Fly. GIANT SPIDERS Beneath the mountains, in the darkest, deepest caves, lurk the Giant Spiders. Their bodies are covered by thick, horny, chitinous plates, and their fangs drip nerve-shattering poison. Huddled in the darkness, they lie in wait, spinning webs to ensnare their unsuspecting victims.
Giant Spider Web (1D3). Gigantic Spider Fear 5; Web (1D6). Web Spiders attempt to ensnare their prey in a web, so that they can finish it off at their leisure. Each turn a Spider may attempt to web a Warrior as many times as it has Attacks. If the Spider hits the Warrior he has been caught in its web - place a Webbed counter next to the Warrior. While webbed a Warrior may not do and may be bitten automatically with the rest of the Spider's Attacks (no to hit roll is needed) for 1Dn Wounds per bite (where n is the value after the Web entry), with no modifiers for Toughness or armour. A Spider may not use its bite Attack(s) if its opponent has not been webbed. Monsters without the ability to use webs that may also be involved in the combat get +2 to their to hit rolls against a webbed Warrior. At the start of each Warriors' Phase, roll 1D6 for each Warrior that has been webbed and add his Strength. If the total is 7 or more, he pulls himself free from the sticky strands and may act normally this turn. Other Warriors may also attempt to remove the web from an adjacent Warrior's body. GIANT RAT No less dangerous than the more intelligent monsters are the packs of Giant Rats that dwell in the dirtiest corners of the Warhammer World. Bloated by eating indescribable foul things, these rats have grown to immense proportions. When cornered, Giant Rats hurl themselves at their opponent in a maniacal frenzy, lunging for their enemy's jugular vein with no thought to their own safety.
Giant Rat Deathleap. Deathleap Giant Rats make a special attack, called a Deathleap. Roll the Rat's attack as normal, but if it hits roll 2D6 + 2 for damage. Once a Rat has attacked the Warrior, roll 1D6. On a result of 3-6 the Rat's suicidal, frenzied attack has opened it up to the Warrior's attack and he automatically kills it. WARHOUND Warhounds are sometimes driven into combat by Dark Elf Beastmasters, using their whips to control them.
Warhound - HARPY Harpies live high in crags in the mountains, but they often venture across the land in search of prey.
Harpy Claw 6+; Fly. NIGHTMARE A Nightmare appears out of the night, spitting fire from its nostrils and eyes blazing with light. Its mane and hooves glow with bright fire. It charges recklessly at anything in its path before vanishing almost instantly.
Nightmare Ambush 5+. CENTAURS More often found on the plains of the Northern Wastes, the brutish Chaos Centaurs sometimes descend into the ancient Dwarf Holds along with Beastmen and Chaos Warriors in search of treasure. Their vicious tempers can only be sated by deeds of the most bloodthirsty nature.
Centaur Armed with Bow (Str 4); Fear 4. Centaur Champion Armed with Bow (Str 7; Fear 8; Magic Armour; Magic Weapon. Centaur Hero Armed with Bow (Str 8; Fear 9; Magic Armour; Magic Item; Magic Weapon. OGRES Ogres stand twice as tall as a man, with massive muscles, jutting jaws and thick bony foreheads. Once an Ogre decides to act it is all but unstoppable.
Ogre Fear 5. Ogre Champion Fear 6; Magic Weapon. Ogre Chieftain Fear 7; Magic Item; Magic Weapon. Ogre War Chief Fear 8; Magic Armour; Magic Item; Magic Weapon. MINOTAURS Minotaurs are large creatures, and have the torso of a hugely-muscled human, but the horned head of a wild bull. Their immense faces are broad, squat and evil, with beady eyes, jutting fangs and snorting, flared nostrils.
Minotaur Fear 5. Minotaur Champion Fear 6; Magic Weapon. Minotaur Hero Fear 9; Magic Item x 2; Magic Weapon. Minotaur Lord Fear 10; Magic Armour; Magic Item x 3; Magic Weapon. DRAGON OGRES Dragon Ogres are ancient, brutish reptiles that live in the deepest mountain caves, only emerging during mighty storms to do battle on the mountain tops.
