Profile of Smaug (Desolator of the North)

Special Rule(s)
Ancient Evil

PASSIVE

An enemy model within 18" of this model suffers a -1 penalty to its Courage. Note, this is not cumulative with other similar penalties such as those provided by Goblin Drums, the Harbringer of Evil special rule, and so on.
Resistant to Magic

PASSIVE

If this model is targeted by a Magical Power, it may use an additional ’free’ dice when it makes a Resist test, even if it has no Will remaining or decides not to use any Will points from its store.
Fearless

PASSIVE

This model automatically passes any Courage test it is required to make.
Terror

PASSIVE

Should a model wish to Charge this model, it must first take a Courage test before it moves. If the test is passed, the model may Charge as normal. If the test is failed, the model does not Charge and may not move at all this turn.
Fly

ACTIVE

This model may ignore all intervening models and terrain as it moves - flying over buildings, woods and so on. The model may not end its movement within woods or upon any terrain that its base will not safely balance upon (flat rocks, hills and the like are fine, but don’t try to perch your model precariously upon trees, sloped roofs, and so on). When flying, a model may move up to 12". A model with this special rule may still choose to use their normal Move value if they wish, however, they will gain none of the benefits of the Fly special rule if they move in this way. If a model with the Fly special rule walks into a wood, they cannot use the Fly special rule again until they have fully left the wood.
Furthermore, a model with this special rule may pass ’over’ enemy Control Zones without charging the model - as long as they end their move outside the Control Zone.
Breathe Fire

ACTIVE

Each time a Dragon Breathes Fire, it expends a point of Will. Treat the Dragon’s fiery breath as a bow with a range of 12". If the shot hits, the target and all models (friend and foe) within 2" suffer a Strength 10 hit. Any model that suffers an unsaved Wound (Fate may still be taken) from a Dragon’s Breathe Fire is automatically slain.
*Desolator of the North

PASSIVE

Smaug may expend a single point of Will each turn without depleting his own store. Furthermore, Smaug re-rolls To Wound rolls of 1 when making Strikes against Dwarf models.
Immovable Object

PASSIVE

Smaug cannot be Knocked to the Ground or otherwise moved against his will, and never Backs away if he loses a Fight - his opponents must Back Away, even if they win! As a result of this, Smaug can never be Trapped.
Missing Scale

PASSIVE

If a model rolls a natural 6 To Hit Smaug with a shooting attack, then makes a sucessful roll To Wound, Smaug suffers a number of wounds equal to the Strength value of the missile weapon used by the shooting model.
Unstoppable Momentum

ACTIVE

If Smaug Charges into combat and wins the ensuing Fight, all of his opponents are Knocked to the Ground, regardless of their size (except a War Mumak, Iron Hills Chariot, or any other model that can never be knocked Prone). Furthermore, should Smaug choose to make a Barge Brutal Power Attack, any models forced to Back Away also suffer a Strength 9 hit.

Magical Power(s)
Immobilise/Transfix (Duration :Temporary)Range : 12’’Casting : 3+
This power targets one enemy model within range. Whilst this power is in effect, the target model may not move ( except to Back Away should they lose a Fight), shoot, cast Magical Powers, declare Heroic Actions, call a Stand Fast! or use Active abilities, and may not Strike if they win a Duel. If the target has a piece of wargear that has an Active ability, they will still have that piece of wargear but cannot use the ability tied to it.

Channeled
The target's Strength is instead reduced by D3.
Command/Compel (Duration :Temporary)Range : 12’’Casting : 4+
This power targets one enemy model within range. The caster may move the target model up to half of its maximum Move distance. They can do this even if the model has already moved this tum, though cannot move a model out of combat. The move cannot force the target to jump, leap, climb, dismount or lie down, but can take them into difficult terrain, and even make them Charge an enemy. No Courage test is required to Charge Terror-causing foes ( see page 111 ). It can even force an unengaged victim to drop an object (but not wargear) that it is holding or to put on The One Ring (if they carry it). Once the target has finished the move, it may move no further that tum for any reason.
Finally, the target suffers the effect of the lmmobilise/fransfix magical power.

Channeled
The target's Strength is instead reduced by D3.
Instill Fear (Duration :Instant)Range : 3’’Casting : 5+
This power targets all enemy models within range. Each affected model must take a Courage test, in an order chosen by the caster; if the test is failed then the model must move its maximum Move distance directly away from the caster, though this cannot move a model out of combat. If the model comes into contact with another model or impassable terrain, or would be forced to fall, then it will stop so it is not in base contact with it. If a model comes into base contact with the edge of the board, they will immediately stop moving; this will not allow or force models to leave the board in Scenarios where models may leave the board. Models that fail a Courage test due to the effects of this Magical Power may then move no further that tum, for any reason. Models that cannot be moved against their will are unaffected by this Magical Power.

Channeled
The target's Strength is instead reduced by D3.
Sap Will (Duration :Instant)Range : 12’’Casting : 5+
This power targets one enemy model within range. The target immediately loses D3 Will points. If the target is a Cavalry model, the caster must choose whether the rider or the mount loses the Will.

Channeled
The target's Strength is instead reduced by D3.
