Editing Tectonic Fragdrill (section)

== Tabletop ==

The Fragdrill is played more as a useful offensive terrain than an actual vehicle or machine. It has a couple of cool abilities that allow for some [[Just As Planned|sneaky re-deployments, and it can mess with your opponent's ability to charge]]. This ability is called Underground Ingress. Once per turn during the Movement Phase, one infantry or biker unit with a Cult Ambush ability can move off the battlefield if all of its models are on ground level and can move within 1" of this model (a unit cannot do so in the same phase it arrive as reinforcements). Once this is done, remove the selected unit from the battlefield and at the end of your Movement Phase, you can set up that unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" from the enemy models. If the battle ends before this unit is set back up, it is destroyed. For all intents and purposes, it is an underground deepstrike.

The first secondary ability is Seismic Tremors, which subtracts 2 from charge rolls made for units whilst they are within 12" of the Fragdrill. Flyers are obviously not effected by it and the effects of multiple Siesmic Tremors are not cumulative. The second secondary ability is called Seismic Quake which is the offensive ability. [[Wat|It also has one of the weirdest ways to attack, for you need to draw a straight imaginary line from any point of one battlefield edge to any point of another battlefield edge in such a way that it crosses this model]]. You then roll a D6 for every unit this line crosses that is on ground level (Flyers exempted as usual): [[Troll|on a 4+ that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds and its Move characteristic is halved until the end of its next Movement Phase.]]

Basically, this piece of machinery is there to [[Troll|fuck speedy assault-oriented armies over]]. Say goodbye to fucking successful charges [[Khorne|Khornate Warbands]], [[Ork|Ork WAAAAAGHS!]], [[Blood Angels|Bishonen Vampires]], [[Space Wolves|Space Furries]], and [[Dark Eldar|BDSM Space Elves]], because now half of your entire forces are stuck foot-slogging across the entire battlefield. [[Butthurt|We can foresee this machine being Grade A fucking annoying to deal with if you're a melee army.]] [[Dakka|Not so much if you're an army that prioritize flyers or just stands there launching an ungodly amount of explosives at that eyesore of a drill.]]
