~DZtP House Rules

Initiative

Roll One Die each

Model who didn't go last gets +1 die

Must roll under leaders Command total

Ties go to person with least number of models

.

Mercs/Heroes

Mercs who only work for one faction are heroes of that faction not Mercs!

-They can be leaders 

-You can have multiple different heroes in an army but they count against your trooper allotment

.

Alterante Overwatch

Long Action

Limited Range

Interrupts movement of anyone passing in front of model with LOS

All models must shoot at first enemy target moving into range and LOS (all Overwatches happen simultaneously)

No aim or cards but abilities such as Marksman do add to roll

.

Mutation

Acid Breath - Dogs should be able to use it at 5+ Shoot

.

Sentry

Can be destroyed by anybody alone in square with it.

.

Picking up Items

Any model with a command skill can pick up items even without shoot skill (ie Stage1A)

.

~Battle Report

New Scenario for Indoor Map

-put 3 exits on board strategically placed to be fair to all factions

-There is one item hidden in facility which must be recovered and taken out of any exit

-Every model (excluding mindless models such as PlagueDogs or Mawbeasts) gain the long action “Search”

-“Search” allows model to look for item in room

-each room can only be searched once/faction

-model must be alert to search (not Pinned, Suppressed or Enraged)

-deployment room cannot be searched by that faction but can be by other faction

-roll 1d8 at the beginning of the searching model’s next activation (this means it takes one whole turn before you find out if item is found)

-a roll of 8 finds the item with a -1/room searched (so 2nd room would find item on 7 or 8 and 3rd room item found on 6, 7 or 8)

-when item is found an alarm sounds allowing everyone to know that item has been found

-there is only one item so all other searching characters automatically fail their search rolls

-once found, item has to be brought out of any exit

-item can be traded as per trading item rules

-the actual model who has the item can be hidden from opposing player by putting token under the model’s card or other such method

-the booby trap card can be used on any searching model

-searching model must have triggered a trap

-search disrupted if model is knocked down (ie pinned or suppressed)

-when person holding item reaches an exit they must roll 1d8

-roll of 1 or 2 means the first door is locked and they must find another exit

-on second exit roll again but this time a roll of 1 only means its locked

-third exit tried is always open

-if model holding item is killed the item drops into that square and any model entering the square can pick it up and then they have to make it out
