Special Terrain

Underhells Terrain

RAW ✔️ The Book of Desolation, p116

Gangs often make use of terrain in their battles against their rivals. Sometimes this is whatever is lying around the underhive battlefield, such as barrels for cover or boltholes from which to launch ambushes. Other times they bring defences with them, setting up fixed weapon platforms, barricades or ammo crates within easy reach of their fighters.

Trazior pattern sentry guns are bought from the Trading Post during the post-battle sequence. Once bought they are added to the gang's Stash, and can be fielded in any battle the gang plays unless noted otherwise.

Special Rules

Deployable Platform: Trazior pattern sentry guns are deployed after a gang has finished deploying all of their models and must be placed within 1" of a friendly fighter along with a control panel. Once placed, a Trazior pattern sentry gun cannot be moved during a battle, though friendly fighters may perform the Retarget (Basic) action:

  • Retarget (Basic): A Trazior pattern sentry gun within 1" of this fighter may pivot on the spot to face another direction.

Target Spotted: Trazior pattern sentry guns do not gain Ready markers and cannot perform actions. Each time a fighter (either friend or foe) ends their activation within a Trazior pattern sentry gun's vision arc and their weapons range, the Trazior pattern sentry gun will perform a Shoot (Basic) action targeting the active fighter. Trazior pattern sentry guns may react this way multiple times each round.

If a friendly fighter is within 1" of a Trazior pattern sentry gun's control console then the Trazior pattern sentry gun will not target the controlling gangs' fighters. Enemy fighters are not able to override the targeting in this manner as they do not possess the access codes.

Overheat!: Trazior pattern sentry guns often run very hot and overheat. Each time a Trazior pattern sentry gun fires, its heat level increases by D3. If the Ammo symbol is rolled on the Firepower dice, instead of performing an Ammo check, increase the Trazior pattern sentry gun's heat level by an additional D3.

During the Recovery & Restart step of the End phase, each Trazior pattern sentry gun's heat level decreases by D6. If the heat level is still 6 or higher after this reduction, the Trazior pattern sentry gun shuts down and cannot fire until its heat level drops to 0.

Mechanical Platform: A Trazior pattern sentry gun treats all Seriously Injured results of the Injury dice as Flesh Wounds.

Easy Repair: When a Trazior pattern sentry gun is taken Out of Action, do not roll on the Lasting Injury table, it is always considered to be Out Cold.
