Special Rules
Wrath Of The Masters
Wrath of the Masters can turn failed melee rolls into successes, but each converted roll forces the unit to risk self-inflicted damage with a Resolve test.
How Wrath Of The Masters works
Wrath of the Masters is a Masters faction or named-unit special rule.
When this unit resolves melee attacks, after rolling melee attacks and identifying failed melee attack rolls, you may choose any number of those failed rolls and treat them as successful attacks.
Resolve this choice before comparing successful hits for the melee damage outcome.
For each failed roll changed into a success this way, immediately make one Resolve test for this unit.
For each point by which a test roll exceeds this unit's modified Resolve, this unit suffers 1 normal damage.
Damage caused by Wrath of the Masters is self-inflicted rule damage resolved as part of the same melee. It does not create additional melee attacks, cannot itself be converted by Wrath of the Masters, and does not change the weapon's Force, damage allocation, or removal timing unless another rule explicitly states otherwise.
Example
A unit or weapon with Wrath Of The Masters meets the rule's stated condition. Wrath of the Masters is a Masters faction or named-unit special rule. Once those steps are complete, play continues normally.
