Kroot Fandex 6th Edition

Kroot Special Rules

FieldcraftUnless otherwise stated in the unit listing, all units in a Kroot Army have the fieldcraft special rule. Fieldcraft grants the unit a +1 to their cover save when they are in woods or jungle terrain. The unit also ignores the effects of difficult terrain in the moving and assault phase if the difficult terrain is caused by wood or jungle terrain, dangerous terrain tests still apply as normal.

InfiltrateUnless otherwise stated in the unit listing, all units in a Kroot Army have the Infiltrate universal special rule.

Animalistic NatureA unit with this special rule can never be considered a scoring unit, even if the mission being played allows non-troop units to be scoring units. Hyperactive Adrenal GlandsSome unit listings will have or have access to purchase hyperactive adrenal glands, this rule gives the unit the Fleet of Foot universal special rule.

Kroot Hound Special RulesWhen taken independently Kroot hounds are considered beasts and are subject to the Animalistic Nature Rule. However, when taken as an upgrade to another unit the Kroot Hounds unit type is the same as the parent unit. Ie if the parent unit is Calvary the Kroot Hounds are also Calvary units.

Knarloc Mount Special RulesA model mounted on a Knarloc changes its unit type to Calvary and gains all of that unit types special rules. In addition a model mounted on a Knarloc adds 1 to its Toughness. Models on Knarlocs are still subject to the Fieldcraft special rule unless otherwise stated in their unit listing.

Kroot Army Warlord Traits

An army consisting solely of models from the Kroot Codex can roll for its Warlord trait from the Kroot Warlord Table if the warlord is a Master Shaper. This replaces the roll on the table in the 40k rulebook. The warlord trait affects every unit in the Kroot army unless otherwise stated in the unit listing.

1. Bold - Kroot units in the army add 1 to their leadership characteristic. In addition, if a unit fails a morale test after taking 25% casualties to shooting instead of falling back the unit will instead go to ground.

2. Chameleon - Kroot units in the army gain the Stealth universal special rule. This replaces the +1 to cover save granted by fieldcraft. If a unit already has the stealth it

instead gains the Shrouded universal special rule.

3. Eagle Eyes - Kroot units in the army gain the ability to re-roll failed to hit rolls of 1 in the shooting phase.

4. Fast Reflexes - Kroot units in the army add 1 to their Initiative.

5. Ferocity - Kroot units in the army gain the Furious Charge universal special rule.

6. Ork Hybrid - Kroot units in the army add 1 to their Toughness.
