Doom Diver Catapault
URL Copied!

The Doom Diver Catapult is an unusual variant of the Rock Lobber in that it lobs Goblin Doom Divers rather than rocks. The Doom Diver Catapult can launch one Goblin in each of its Shooting phases.

When firing a Doom Diver Catapult treat it exactly as you would a Rock Lobber. Point the Catapult at a suitable target, nominate distance, roll the Artillery dice and Scatter dice and determine where the Goblin lands as for a Rock Lobber. If the Goblin lands on top of an enemy unit then it automatically causes D6 Strength 5 hits with no armour saving throw for wounds caused. No template is used with the Doom Diver - the plummeting Goblin either hits the unit or misses altogether.

As Doom Divers are able to direct themselves onto their target to some extent, the player is allowed to re-roll the Scatter dice. If he does so then the re-roll will either hit or send the Goblin off in another direction as shown by the arrow on the re-rolled dice.

If a Doom Diver launch should misfire then roll a D6 and consult the misfire chart.
