Not unlike any other mounted model, a character that is mounted upon a Ridden Monster will have a split profile. In game terms, this works as follows:

• Unless noted otherwise, any special rules that apply to one element (character or mount) apply to the other as well.

• This model uses the Movement characteristic of the mount.

• The character and mount each use their own Weapon Skill, Ballistic Skill, Strength, Initiative and Attacks characteristics, and their own weapons.

• In combat, all enemy rolls To Hit are made against the character's Weapon Skill.

• Impact Hits and/or Stomp Attacks use the mount's Strength.

• When this model makes an Armour Save roll, it may use either the mount or the character's armour value, whichever is better.

• If the character is reduced to zero Wounds, the model as a whole is removed from play.

Improved Characteristics

Ridden monsters are invariably huge and fearsome beasts, and being mounted upon one will increase the character's Toughness and/or Wounds characteristics. In such cases, this will be noted within the mount's profile.
