Essence Leech: If Khamûl causes a Wound he instantly regains a point of Will for each Wound caused (unless that Wound is ‘saved’ with a point of Fate). This ability cannot be used to take his Will above 12. In addition, Khamûl may expend a single point of Will at the start of the Fight phase (before any heroic combats are resolved) to increase either his Strength, Fight or Attacks value by 1 for remainder of the Fight phase. He may only expend a single point of Will in this way each turn.

The model may not end its movement within woods or upon any terrain that its base will not safely balance upon (flat rocks, hills and the like are fine, but don’t try to perch your model precariously upon trees, sloped roofs and so on). Furthermore, a model with this special rule may pass ‘over’ enemy Control Zones without charging the model – as long as he ends his move outside the Control Zone.
