Editing Warhammer 40,000/Chapter Approved/Kroot Mercenaries

The following is an attempt to update the Kroot Mercenaries for 7th edition. Why? Because [[Kroot]] are awesome, and sadly under-represented in the current edition of [[Warhammer 40,000]].

Please note that, as always, this is completely unofficial and in no way sponsored by [[Games Workshop]] Limited. This is probably obvious (if it isn't, you shouldn't be on 1d4chan), but the legal disclaimer is just there to make sure dear old Wikifag isn't sued (that would be sad, I think we can all agree).

*'''Hyperactive Nymune Organ''' - Certain units may purchase this as an upgrade at a cost indicated in the unit entry.  This adds the ''Fleet'' rule to a model who purchases it.
*'''Knarloc Mount''' - This turns the model's type to Cavalry and grants +1 S/T/W and +2 A to the model's statline. However, doing so will replace the Infiltrate special rule with Outflank and make the unit unable to make a Sweeping Advance, and must always consolidate after a unit disengages from combat.
*'''Purchased Kroot Hounds''' - Certain units may purchase Kroot Hounds.  These Kroot Hounds form a unit with their buyer, and models with ''Independent Character'' will remain able to join other units.  If the Independent Character ever dies while attached to a unit, then the purchased Kroot Hounds are attached to that unit instead.  If the Independent Character ever dies unattached to another unit, then the purchased Kroot Hounds cannot attach themselves to another unit.

=== Signature Evolutionary Adaptation ===

The army must select a single Evolutionary Adaptation from the list below ''at no cost'' and apply it to every Kroot model in the detachment. Note, this means that every model will benefit ''other'' than Kroot Hounds, Unmounted Krootoxes or Great Knarlocs.

*'''Bold''' - Add +1 Leadership to their profile values and gain the ''Stubborn'' USR.
*'''Chameleon''' - Gain the ''Shrouded'' USR.
*'''Fast Reflexes''' - Add +1 Initiative to their profile values and gain the ''Hit and Run'' USR.
*'''Nocturnal''' - Gain ''Night Vision'' and ''Acute Senses'' USR.
*'''Ork Hybrid''' - Add +1 Toughness to their profile values.
*'''Sixth Sense''' - Models with this adaptation gain a 4+ invulnerable save against template or blast weapons.

''Authors note - this is far more than originally presented in Chapter Approved 2004, however with the changing of the editions things have become cheaper and rules more freely distributed, this is an attempt at a "Chapter Tactics" style army benefit that comes at no cost''

=== Totems ===

*'''Kroothawk Totem''' - An army containing this totem may re-roll the dice to determine first turn and may also re-roll to seize the initiative.
*'''Veneration Charm''' - One weapon (except for grenades) carried by the character gains the '''Master-Crafted''' special rule
*'''Mark of the Favoured Child''' - The wielder gains a 4+ invulnerable save
*'''Surefoot Charm''' - When running, the character and his unit may roll an additional dice and discard the lowest (note this stacks with ''Fleet'', allowing one dice to be re-rolled if desired)
*'''Blood of the Stalker''' - The character and any attached unit gain the ''Scout'' special rule and also may deploy D6" closer to the enemy than normally permitted when Infiltrating.

'''Special Rules'''
*'''Feeding Frenzy''' (Great Knarloc Only) - If the Great Knarloc is in combat and rolls more ones than sixes for the to-hit roll, then the Great Knarloc will immediately remove the nearest Kroot Goad from play. If the nearest Kroot Goad is the Shaper, then this rule does not take effect. This rule does not affect combat resolution.
*'''Herding''' - In any Movement Phase where all Kroot Goads and Shapers attached to the unit are dead and the unit is not falling back, the Great Knarloc must test Morale.
*'''Move Through Cover'''
* '''Stealth (Jungles and Forests)'''
'''Wargear'''
*'''Kroot Rifle''' (Kroot Goad and Shaper only)
*'''Heavy Baggage''' (Great Knarloc Only) - Oftentimes a Great Knarloc will be used as a carrier for a Kroot Warband's baggage, as the beasts are very sturdy.  However, such beasts are not used to combat.  This causes -1 Attack and gives the Great Knarloc a 4+ Armour Save.
'''Upgrades'''
*One Kroot Goad may be upgraded to a Shaper for 15 pts.
*May include up to 5 additional Kroot Goads for 8 pts each.
*Any model may replace their Kroot Rifle with a Kroot Shotgun for free.
*Great Knarloc may purchase Heavy Baggage for free.

This rule does not affect the model's attacks or movement, and does not bestow the ability to Tank Shock or Ram or to use any other part of the vehicle rules.

==== Punji Traps ====

'''Points cost''' - 20 points
:After your army deploys, scouts redeploy and infiltrators deploy, but before the roll to Seize the Initiative, you may booby-trap a single piece of battlefield terrain on the table for each set of Punji Traps purchased. The piece of area terrain should be marked with a small marker to remind both players that it has been booby-trapped. Enemy models treat booby-trapped pieces of area terrain as dangerous terrain. Note that booby-traping the same piece of area terrain multiple times has no additional effect.
'''Upgrade'''
*May take up to two additional sets of Punju Traps for 20 pts each
