Bloodlock Playtest Rules V2! *The REAL V2!*


Atttteeeeeen-Shun! Bloodlock has been updated.

Done a bit of an overhaul on the leader system as well as targeting. Also changed some unit's stats.

For perspective, Bloodlock is meant to be a game about the rank & file infantry not overpowered heroes with hammers. It is also meant to be a command & control game so to that end Leaders are crucial. With that said, players should not be playing with strong individual models nor should they be able to just pick off Leaders & ruin the 'fun' element playing a game. To that end Leaders are still targetable but when declaring a target you must select the nearest target. If you do not wish to do so, you will roll a nerve test & if passed, select a different target. If you fail the nerve test, your attack fails! If you are a fan of 40k 4th edition like I am this will feel very familiar. Hope you enjoy, as always looking forward to feedback.
