Runt Support



The Runt Revolution may take any support weapon or vehicle from Codex: Orks at the cost listed, though vehicles will be crewed with Gretchin instead of Orks. Since Gretchin are notably smaller and more apt to duck than a typical Ork, in an exposed crew vehicle, the crew will only be hit on a roll of 1-2 on a d6 hit location roll. The vehicle itself will be hit on 3-6. Your army must include at least one Meklad in order to have any support weapons or vehicles. In addition, up to one Imperial vehicle or support weapon may be taken; without targeters and crewed by unarmed, unarmoured gretchin; at the listed cost.

Gretchin Battlebuggy
Point Cost: 15 points

A contraption built from parts scavenged from totaled Ork buggies by resourceful Mekladz. True to its nature, it is predictably unpredictable. To determine the maximum speed of the Battlebuggy, consult the list below. When travelling at combat speed, for every '6' rolled when determining maximum speed, roll a d6. For every 5+ on these rolls, roll a d3 on the hull damage table, as the Battlebuggy begins to fall apart. When travelling at fast speed, for every '6' rolled when determining maximum speed, roll a d6. For every 4+ on these rolls, roll a d6 on the hull damage table.

Killa Kannon
Point Cost: 45 points


The Killa Kannon projects a deadly neutron beam, which is virtually harmless to inorganic material, but lethal to living models. Any model struck by the Killa KannonMust immediately make a saving throw at -3. If this roll is failed then roll a d6 and reduce its toughness by the result for the remainder of the game. If a model's toughness is reduced below 1, it is killed by the neutron stream. If an enclosed vehicle is struck by the Killa Kannon, make an armor penetration roll with 5d6.

Shokka Kannon
Point Cost: 40 points

The Shokka Kannon uses technology similar to the Shokk Attack Gun, but instead of sending Snotlings through the warp, it launches an explosive charge through the tunnel into a target. To fire the Shokka Kannon, nominate a target and roll scatter and artillery dice. If the artillery die shows a misfire, something has gone wrong- roll a d6 and consult the misfire table below. If the scatter die shows a hit, the shot is on target and hits the nominated point. If an arrow is rolled, the shot scatters a number of inches equal to the roll on the artillery die in the direction indicated. If the shot hits a model, roll on the appropriate effect table. If not, place a 2" blast template over the point where the shot landed. Any models wholly underneath are hit automatically, those partially covered are hit on a 4+ on a d6. All hit models take a S4 hit with a -1 save modifier.

Shokka Kannon Misfire Table

1-2: Explodes! All units within 2" take d6 S4 hits with a -1 save modifier.
3-6: The kannon overheats, and may not be fired this turn.

Foot Trooper Effect Table

1-2: The explosive materializes in the trooper's immediate vicinity. Place a 2" blast template over the model with the same effect as a missed shot (described above). The victim is hit with the effect of a krak grenade.
3-4: The explosive materializes directly beneath the trooper, detonating underground. Place a 2" blast template over the trooper- all models wholly covered are hit automatically; those partially covered are hit on a 4+ on a d6. Affected foot troopers and terminators are knocked down and must spend their next turn getting up. Walkers and dreadnoughts roll a d3 on the leg damage table. Vehicles move out of control at the beginning of the next movement phase. Skimmers will only move out of control if a 6 is rolled on a d6.
5-6: The explosive materializes inside the model and detonates, killing the model instantly regardless of wounds, with no armour save allowed.

Dreadnought, Wraithguard, Robot, and Terminator Effect Table

1-2: The explosive materializes inside the suit with the wearer and detonates. The model inside takes a S8 hit with no armour save allowed. Wraithguard and robots are destroyed.
3-4: The explosive materializes directly beneath the model, detonating underground. Place a 2" blast template over the trooper- all models wholly covered are hit automatically; those partially covered are hit on a 4+ on a d6. Affected foot troopers and terminators are knocked down and must spend their next turn getting up. Walkers and dreadnoughts roll a d3 on the leg damage table. Vehicles move out of control at the beginning of the next movement phase. Skimmers will only move out of control if a 6 is rolled on a d6.
5-6: The explosive materializes inside the model and detonates, killing the model instantly regardless of wounds, with no armour save allowed.

Vehicle Effect Table

1-2: The explosive materializes in the vehicle's immediate vicinity. Place a 2" blast template over the model with the same effect as a missed shot (described above). The vehicle is hit with the effect of a krak grenade.
3-4: The explosive materializes inside the crew compartment, and all crew members are hit with the effect of a krak grenade. The vehicle moves out of control at the beginning of the next movement phase. Roll a d3 on the hull damage table. If there are no enclosed crew, treat this as if a 1-2 were rolled.
5-6: The explosive materializes within the fuel tank of the vehicle and detonates, destroying the vehicle and killing the crew. All models within 3" of the vehicle take a hit equal to the ram value of the vehicle.

Support Weapon Effect Table

1-3: The explosive materializes in the weapon's immediate vicinity. Place a 2" blast template over the model with the same effect as a missed shot (described above). The weapon is hit with the effect of a krak grenade.
4-6: The explosive materializes within the support weapon and detonates, destroying the weapon and killing the crew.

Bunker Effect Table

1-2: The explosive materializes inside a random occupant of the bunker and detonates, killing it instantly and causing a S4 hit with a -1 save modifier to all other models in the bunker.
3-6: The explosive materializes within the bunker and detonates. All models within the bunker sustain a hit with the effect of a krak grenade.

Warp Busta
Point Cost: 65 points

The Warp Busta is a device that will strain the fabric separating reality from the warp. What results from this assault is anyone's guess, but it's probably bad! To fire the Warp Busta, nominate a target and roll a scatter and artillery die. On a misfire, something has gone wrong. Roll a d6 and consult the misfire table. On a 'Hit' the shot is on target. Roll a d6 on the appropriate effect table. If the scatter die is an arrow, the shot deviates a number of inches equal to the number shown on the artillery die in the direction indicated. If a model is still hit by the shot, roll on the appropriate effect table; otherwise roll on the 'Miss' effect table. Only psychic saves are allowed versus the Warp Busta.

SR/tHS: 0-20"/special LR/tHL: 20-60"/Special S/D/SM: Special

Misfire Table

1-2: The Warp Busta has a minor problem and may not fire this turn.
3-4: A daemon emerges from the warp and engages a crew member in hth combat. If it succeeds in killing both crew, it will behave as outlined in the 'Miss' effect table under the result of 1-4.
5: The Warp Busta's generator implodes, creating a vortex spiraling into the warp. Place a vortex template over the Warp Busta and treat it as a vortex grenade.
6: The Warp Busta is possessed by a daemon, which takes the opportunity to use the Warp Busta's generator to summon more of its kin from the warp. At the beginning of each subsequent turn, place 1d6 daemons into play as per result 3-4, with identical characteristics.

Foot Trooper/Terminator/Robot/Wraithguard/Dreadnought Effect Table

1-3: A daemon emerges from the warp and engages the model in hth combat. If it succeeds in killing the model, it will behave as outlined in the 'Miss' effect table under the result of 1-4.
4: A transient tear in the warp is created, and the model is sucked (or dragged) screaming into the warp, never to be seen again.
5: The fabric of reality is violently ruptured. Place a vortex template over the model and treat it as a vortex grenade.
6: The model is possessed by a daemon! It retains all of its original characteristics, but behaves as outlined in the 'Miss' effect table under a result of 1-4, but will fire all its weapons at the nearest model each turn in addition. Daemons are not affected by this result.

Vehicle Effect Table

1-3: A daemon emerges from the warp and engages a random crew member in hth combat. If it succeeds in killing the crew member, it will move on to the next until it or the entire crew is killed.
4-5: A random crew member is sucked (or dragged) screaming through a small tear into the warp, never to be seen again.
6: The vehicle is possessed by a daemon! All crew are considered killed, and the vehicle will move at maximum combat speed speed in a random direction each turn, firing all its weapons at the nearest model in each weapon's repective fire arc. Vehicles already possessed by a daemon will be affected only if a 5+ is rolled on a further d6, in which case the resident daemon is evicted and replaced by a more powerful one.

Bunker Effect Table

1-3: A daemon emerges from the warp and engages a random occupant in hth combat. If it succeeds in killing the model, it will move on to the next until it or all the occupants are killed.
4-5: A random occupant is sucked (or dragged) screaming through a small tear into the warp, never to be seen again.
6: The warp is ruptured, and a vortex engulfs all models inside the bunker before collapsing on itself. The bunker will collapse into the warp on a roll of 4+ on a d6.

Miss Effect Table

1-4: A daemon emerges from the warp, with the characteristics shown in the daemon creation rules (below). At the beginning of each of your turns, it will move 2d6" in a random direction determined by the roll of a scatter die. If the daemon ever passes within 3" of a model, it will immediately charge the model and engage it in hth combat.
5: The warp is violently ruptured by the Warp Busta. Place a vortex template over the location of the shot and treat it as a vortex grenade.
6: A major rift in the warp is created, which immediately collapses upon itself. All models within 1d6" are sucked into the warp on a roll of 4+ on a d6; roll for each model separately.

Daemon Creation
A daemon has the following characteristics. Roll 1d6 to determine all stats that are listed as 'd6'. Thus, S, T, WS, I, and A will all be equal.

Troop Exchanja
Point Cost: 45 points

This distant cousin of the Shokk Attack Gun consist of a vaguely artillery-like device connected to a platform by control cables. It functions by sending a kamikaze gretchin, generally a Bomberladz, through the warp while simultaneously yanking an enemy unit out of reality by means of a mass-exchange device. The two units trade places, the gretchin usually landing amidst enemy forces and the bewildered victim ending up on the Exchanja's pad, where there is usually a mob of gretchin on hand waiting to annihilate the unlucky model as it arrives. Any ladz mob may be attached to the Troop Exchanja for this purpose. Any mob attached to the Troop Exchanja that is left on overwatch may elect to either fire upon or charge the enemy as it is teleported onto the pad. A model teleported in rolls no attack dice and may not parry during the ensuing round of hth combat. In addition, a Bomberladz mob may be attached for use as ammo, er, that is, a suicide strike team. These Bomberladz are specially primed to explode on arrival, rather than at the beginning of the third turn as normal. To fire the Troop Exchanja, nominate a target and roll to hit based on the following table. Additional Bomberladz may be fired to give a +1 to hit, to a minimum of 2+. On a miss, roll on the mishap table.

Troop Exchanja To-Hit Table

Foot Troopers with armour save no better than 4+ 2+
Foot Troopers with armour save 3+ or better 3+
Terminators/Robots/Wraithguard 4+
Dreadnoughts/Greater Daemons/Monstruous Creatures 5+
Vehicles with AV no greater than 12 5+
Vehicles with AV greater than 12 (destroys teleport pad) 6+

Mishap Table

1: Everything goes well, but only one Bomberlad appears at the destination point, regardless of the number sent.
2-3: The Troop Exchanja was unable to make the mass exchange, but may fire next turn as normal. The Bomberlad being fired must roll equal to or less than its initiative rating on a d6 to disarm the bomb or else explode.
4: The Bomberlad is sent into the warp, but the Exchanja can't manage to seize the target. The Bomberlad is lost in the warp, never to be seen again.
5: As above, but the Bomberlad is dropped into reality in the vicinity of the target, exploding as normal.
6: Something really odd happens. Roll a d6 and consult the Rare Occurrence table.

Rare Occurrence Table

1-2: The Bomberlad and the target are both pulled into the warp, but they never emerge.
3: The Bomberlad and the target are both dropped at a point midway between the Exchanja and the position originally occupied by the target, and the Bomberlad explodes as normal.
4: The Bomberlad and the victim have are reduced to a pile of primordial protoplasm at a point between the Exchanja and the target's original position. Remove them both as casualties.
5: The Exchanja switches itself with the Bomberlad, which explodes. If any crew survive, they must spend a turn moving the Exchanja off of the platform and re-aiming it.
6: The Exchanja overloads and explodes, killing the crew. Place a 3" blast marker over the point once occupied by the Exchanja and over the target. All models under each template are swapped, with each model deviating d6" away from the center of the template in a random direction determined by the scatter die.

Runt Suicide Bike
Point Cost: 45 points

The Runt Suicide Bike consists of a fanatical gretchin driving a bike stripped of all weapons and loaded down with anything explosive the gretchin could find.

Gretchin

M WS BS S T W I A Ld
4 2 3 3 3 1 2 1 5


Crew: One Gretchin driver.
Weapons: The driver is armed with a hand weapon and krak grenades.
Armour: The driver is not wearing armour.

Special: At any time, the driver may detonate the payload. Roll an artillery die. Any model within a number of inches indicated by the die roll takes 1d3 hits with a strength equal to 2+d6, and a save modifier equal to half the strength, rounded down. If a misfire is rolled, the payload does not detonate immediately- roll an artillery die at the beginning of each successive player turn until a number is rolled, in which case the payload explodes as above. Note that if the driver tried to detonate the payload and failed, it will still explode on a subsequent successful artillery die roll even if the driver is killed.

Slow: 0-8" Combat: 8-12" Fast: 12-30"
Ram Value: S5, -2, d6

AV: 10, all locations

Hit location table:

1-2: Driver
3-4: Bike
5-6: Payload

Bike damage table:

1-2: The bike is sent careening briefly. It moves out of control at the beginning of the next movement phase.
3-4: The bike bursts into flames! The driver is hit by a S4 hit on a 4+, and roll a d3 for the payload damage table. The bike moves out of control at the beginning of the next movement phase.
5-6: The fuel tank is hit, and the bike explodes! The driver is killed, and roll a d6 on the payload damage table.

Payload damage table:

1: The payload is severed from driver control, and may not be detonated electronically.
2-6: The payload explodes, as though detonated by the driver. However, on a misfire, the payload is a dud, and will not explode this game.
