Nippon

The Empire of Nippon demands much of its Samurai: service to one’s lord, service to one’s Clan, and service to one’s Emperor. Bushido’s staunch and unyielding code of conduct binds Samurai to duty, strengthening their character and defining their choices. A Nipponese army on the march is a spectacular sight to behold. Thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of Samurai and Ashigaru march in formation, resplendent in their armour, the sun glittering off their weapons, their battle standards and back-banners fluttering, the dust of their passage lingering long after they have marched on.

The wielder causes an automatic Strength 4 hit on all models in base contact in addition to his normal attacks. In addition, any model wounded, but not killed, loses all their attacks for the duration of the turn.

Special Character

The Warhammer Army books each include the rules for several Special Characters within their pages. They are famous, named war leaders and mighty mages, tales of whose legendary (or nefarious) deeds have travelled far and wide, such as the Emperor Karl Franz, Grom the Paunch of Misty Mountain, the infamous Vampire Lord Vlad von Carstein and many more besides. Special Characters are exceptional individuals but, more importantly for our army selection purposes, they are unique – each can be included in an army only once.

Special Characters

Dishonourable

Models with this rule must always accept challenges and re-roll all failed Psychology tests. In addition, they ignore Panic caused by units with a lower unmodified Leadership value (excluding any characters) than them. Lastly, they treat all models listed as Dishonourable as Expendable.
