Monument of Glory
URL Copied!

Many nations and races of the world celebrate their grand achievements or righteous beliefs by erecting monuments to their leaders and gods. A monument of glory can take many forms. It could be represented by a small patch of tumbled-down columns, a group of Dwarfen oath stones or a cairn of skulls and so forth. It might be a gilded statue of a god of war, a monolith declaring the triumphs of a Chaos champion, or the rotted remains of the losers! The list is endless.

Controlling A Monument of Glory

A monument of glory is controlled by proximity.

An Inspirational Sight

A monument of glory fills all who look upon it with a sense of achievement (even if the achievements commemorated are not theirs) and inspires them to ever greater acts of bravery. The unit that controls the monument of glory may re-roll failed Panic tests. In addition, all units that belong to the same army may re-roll failed Rally tests.

Honour Thy Forebears

Many warriors are filled with a sense of righteous pride when tasked with the defence of a monument of glory, and will defend it vigorously. The unit controlling the monument of glory gains the Hatred (all enemies) special rule.

Victory Points

Controlling an important landmark is a significant achievement. To represent this, if either player controls this special feature at the end of the battle, that player is awarded a bonus of 50 Victory Points.
