This is the first of what will be many house rules I will be
creating for the Age of Sigmar, as I bring many beloved and forgotten things
from the world that was into the new age.
I present the first draft of the rules for Prince Ulther and
his Dragon Company, they were a Regiment of Renown back in the mid 80’s so 2nd
and 3rd edition Warhammer Fantasy.
There are two Warscrolls one for Prince Ulther himself and
one for his Imperial Dwarfs in the Dragon Company.

Vengeance of the Ancestors: If Prince Ulther uses this
ability, then until your next hero phase all Dispossessed units from your army
that are fighting models with the Chaos Keyword may make one extra attack with

it suffers a mortal wound.

I will eventually test these scrolls out and make a nice PDF download once they are ready for prime time and I have the new models painted for them.
Just for fun reference this is my original unit of the models painted in the 80's I have a new set in the box just waiting to be painted for Age of Sigmar.
Until next time may you dice roll sixes!
I like those dragon motifs you painted on the shields!
