Walker

Walkers have the following characteristics and have bases.

Characteristic	Abv.	Description
Type	Type	The base size/diameter in millimeters followed by weight class.
Weapon Skill	Ws	How good a unit is at combat. If listed X/Y, then X is it’s melee skill and Y is it’s shooting skill. If there’s only one number listed, then the unit’s melee and shooting skill is the same.
Strength	S	How strong the unit is.
Toughness	T	How hard the unit is to hurt, each walker arc has a different toughness
Grit	Gr	How mentally fortuitous the unit is. Resisting casualties and battle shock.
Sagacity	Sg	How Intelligent the unit is. Psychic powers and tactical objectives.

Walker Arc

Walkers have a front, side, and rear arc. Each of these will have their own weapons and armor values. All weapons can only fire into the same arc they’re located in, with top mounted weapons being able to fire into all firing arcs.

Walker Types

Walker types are comprised of base size and weight class. The combination of these two factors determine the walker’s Hull points, Armor points, and how far it can move. If a walker has an oval base, average the two dimensions and use the closest base size listed below.

Walker Table - the table describes (hull points/armor points) that walkers have

Base Size	Light	Medium	Heavy
60mm	3/1	3/3	3/4
80mm	4/2	4/4	4/6
100mm	5/2	5/5	5/7
120mm	6/3	6/6	6/9
140mm	7/3	7/7	7/10
160mm	8/4	8/8	8/12
180mm	9/4	9/9	9/13

Walker Movement

Walkers can only move forward or backward. Movement backward costs twice as much as normal.

Walker Type	Walker Movement
Light	10y
Medium	8y
Heavy	6y

Walker Turning

Walkers aren’t allowed to make turns as freely as other units. Instead before you move a walker, you must declare how much it’s going to turn throughout it’s move. The more a walker turns, the slower it moves as described on the table below.

Turn	Move
no turn	full move
up to 90 degrees	half move
full 180 degrees	no move

Wounding Walkers

Walkers have two types of points: Armor points and Hull points. When a walker takes damage, reduce the walker’s armor points first. Once no armor points are remaining, reduce the walker’s hull points. Whenever a walker loses a hull point, not just from being wounded by an attack, roll on the table below to see how it’s affected.

2D6	Vehicle Damage Table
2	Explodes!
3	Control Hit - reduce the walker’s weapon skill in melee and shooting by 1. If you can’t because 0, the walker explodes.
4	Weapon Shot - destroy all weapons in a random arc in the attacker’s line of sight.
5	Flesh Wound - No Further Affect
6	Ammo Hit - reduce the number of shots all your weapons make by one.
7	Leg Hit - Half the walker’s movement, rounded down. If can’t half because already 0, the walker explodes.
8	Ammo Hit - reduce the number of shots all your weapons make by one.
9	Flesh Wound - No Further Affect
10	Weapon Shot - destroy all weapons in a random arc in the attacker’s line of sight.
11	Control Hit - reduce the walker’s weapon skill in melee and shooting by 1. If you can’t because 0, the walker explodes.
12	Explodes!

Exploding!!

When a walker explodes, all models within a number of yards equal to the lowest toughness value of the walker takes a Strength D6, Damage 1 hit. Roll for the Strength of this explosion once, and apply to to all hits. Once all hits are resolved, the walker is removed from the battlefield.

Timber!

When a walker is slain roll a scatter die. If you roll a direct hit, then walker walker dies on its feet. Otherwise the walker turns its back towards that direction and falls over face up. If there are models that wound be crunched by this, move them a minimum distance out from underneath it and have each model that had to move make an Initiative check. If the initiative check is failed, then they take a hit with Strength equal to the half the walker’s rear toughness, value rounded down. The damage of this hit is equal to the walker’s starting hull points.

Blast, Template, and Beam Hits

If a blast template, flamer template, or beam line pass through multiple arcs/sides of a vehicle; each of arcs/sides take hits rather than just one set for the whole vehicle.

Walker Shooting

Walker use the normal shooting methods as described in the battle round/shooting phase section of the rules and can fire every weapon they’re equipped with.

Walker Combat

Walkers get a number of attacks equal to half their remaining hull points, rounded up for each melee weapon they’re equipped with. For example, an undamaged 60mm heavy walker with two power claws would have 4 attacks. If the walker wins the combat and land hits, you can split hits as you want between the weapon(s) they’re equipped with amoungst multiple enemies.

Walker Morale

Walkers take a morale check every time they roll on the walker damage table.
