Detachment Rule
Stitchflesh Abominations
The Haemonculi and their servants have been surgically altered in body and mind beyond any measure of sanity. For beings so twisted as these, pain is little more than a fascinating diversion, while none but the most grievous wounds can lay them low for long.
Each time an attack targets a Haemonculus Covens unit from your army, if the Strength characteristic of that attack is greater than the Toughness characteristic of your unit, subtract 1 from the Wound roll.
