Magic Weapon

The Windblade is the great double-handed broadsword of Aekold, granted to him by his master, Tzeentch. Like all the favours given by the Changer of Ways, it is an erratic and unpredictable weapon.

Great weapon. At the start of each of his turns, roll a D6 and consult the chart below to see what effect the Windblade will have on its bearer:

D6

Result

1-2

The Windblade allows its bearer to walk the winds of magic and move with an astounding speed.

Aekold gains the Fly (10) special rule until the start of his next turn.

3-4

The Windblade becomes as light as a feather in the hands of its bearer, and yet still retains its deadly power.

Aekold gains the Always Strikes First special rule until the start of his next turn.

5-6

The Windblade swirls and leaps from the hands of its wielder, striking enemies at a great distance before returning to his hand.

Aekold may throw the Windblade as a missile attack with a range of 12" and the Quick to Fire special rule. If the unit is hit it suffers D3 Strength 5 hits.
