Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc. ▲ Armoured & Shielded: Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage.As the world teeters on the precipice of epochal events, Khorne’s bloodlust crescendos once more, His violent whims, as ever, to be served unquestioningly by the inimitable Gorequeen. And now the Consort of Khorne comes to blight the mortal plane once again, this time her coming foretold many years in advance by tribal shamans, with the iconic and primitive etchings of the winged warrior-queen long adorning the walls of hermit grottos across the north. The annals of history recall many of Valkia the Bloody’s appearances in the world, her arrival always met with fear but also reverence from the faithful of the Blood God who worship her as a goddess. The Blood God raged at Valkia’s passing, His fury so thunderous that it awoke her from death and, taking her in His claws, He reforged the queen into a vision of destructive power.
By the time of her death she had defeated countless minions of Khorne’s brother-Gods, reaching the end of her mortal existence while on a journey of slaughter into the Realm of Chaos to pay tribute to her battle-hungry patron personally. Valkia the Bloody rose to infamy as the merciless warrior queen of a great northern tribe who cut down anyone who dared question her reign.
