Scrollhammer: Dwemer Animunculi

This is a work in progress of Dwemer Animunculi, for Scrollhammer, by FatherDuke.

Overview

These units are meant to be taken as cohorts for certain heroes in other codexes. Ash Vampires and (maybe Aldmeri Inquisitors) are among those that do.

General Rules

Centurion Racial Traits:

Centurions are much like Automatons, and share many of the same rules, save that they are weak to Frost and resistant to Shock.

• Dwemer-make: Centurions are Fearless, unaffected by disease, and are Immune to Shock and Poison. Frost damage ignores the armor saves of Centurions, and gets +1 to wound against them. Centurions are not mortals.
• Mechanical: Centurions cannot be affected by Blind, Paralyze, Silence or Command effects, or Illusion spells an opponent controls, unless a special rule specifically allows it. Centurions may be chilled.
