ARMY COMPOSITION

This army may include: The Spider Queen; Mirkwood Spiders; Giant Spiders; Bat Swarms and Fell Wargs.

ARMY BONUS

Beasts of Mirkwood – So long as your army includes the Spider Queen, warbands composed entirely of Warg models do not need a Hero to lead them if they number six or more models; warbands composed entirely of Spider models do not need a Hero to lead them if they number two or more models; and warbands composed of a mixture of models do not need a Hero to lead them if they number ten or more models. Instead, one Warrior within the warband takes on the role of the warband's captain for the purpose of deployment.

A Hero model hit by a Spider Web can choose to expend a Fate point in the same manner as if it had just suffered a Wound in order to dodge the attack.
