Ironblaster

Ogres are great hulking monstrosities with a real appetite for destruction. They are utterly ruthless and enjoy using their massive brawn to dominate others. The way Ogres figure it, their enemies have two choices – surrender their treasures, or get flattened and then surrender their treasures – and Ogres aren't bothered about which option their foes pick. Ogres combine a mercenary outlook and a bullying nature with an insatiable gluttony – a voracious hunger for food, wealth and power. An Ogre army is a fearsome sight – a sweaty mass of colossal warriors backed up by primeval monsters and shaggy tusked beasts from an ice-ridden age that still prowl the world. On the battlefield, Ogres don't just defeat their enemies, they break them, grind them and then consume them in great gory chunks. Then they look for more...

Ironblaster Misfire Table Chart

Fire the cannon of the Sky-titans in the same way as a normal cannon, using the profile and special rules that follow. If a misfire is rolled on the first artillery dice, roll a D6 and consult the following table: 

Cannon of the Sky-titans

All models in a unit should as much as possible be armed with the same weapon and armour type for ease of distinguishing their armament. Some variation is acceptable, but it should be clear to the opponent what sort of equipment a unit has. In case it might not be apparent at first glance, this should be clearly declared upon deploying the unit. If a model has more than one weapon, they must choose which weapon they want to use at the start of the shooting phase or close combat. A model cannot choose to use two different weapons in the same shooting phase or close combat unless clearly specified. However, if the model has multiple crew or riders (like chariots or ridden monsters), each crew or rider may use one weapon each as normal. Whichever weapon they select must then be used for the entire close combat, unless the weapon they are using is somehow destroyed – it's no easy thing to change to a different weapon partway through a fight.

D6	Result
1	Krakabooom! The much-abused cannon finally gives up under constant mistreatment by the Ogres and explodes spectacularly, showering redhot shrapnel and cannonballs in all directions. The Ironblaster is destroyed and all units within D6" take 2D6 Strength 5 hits.
2	Krrack! The cannon splits along its length with an earsplitting crack. It is rendered useless and may not be fired for the rest of the battle.
3-4	Squelch! The Gnoblar attendant, having stuffed several mangled corpses into the cannon to see what would happen, has fouled the mechanism. The cannon may not fire this turn or next turn as the Gnoblar gets the highly unpleasant task of cleaning gore out of the barrel.
5-6	Lurch! Moments before firing, the Rhinox pulling the Ironblaster gets spooked and lurches in its harness, bucking and snorting. Roll a scatter dice and turn the Ironblaster to face the direction rolled. The cannon may not shoot this turn.
