Coven Throne Question

[Taternuts]

Hey Gang quick question. If I mount a vampire lord or hero on the throne does he inherit the 4++ from the throne or not?
Thanks in advance

No. Rules that apply to the rider never apply to the mount and vice versa. For him to have the 4++ you'd need armour of destiny or ToP.

Thanks for the quick response, I was afraid of that. Darn AB getting my hopes up.

Same reason you can Dwellers a Grey Seer right off his Bell. He has to take his own Strength test.

Couple more quick questions. If a cannonball shoots the vampire off the throne does the throne go away since its a mount? Also how many hand maidens fight it looks like 2 with 2 attacks each.

But at the same time you can't just suck a Zombie Dragon out from under a Vampire Lord with Purple Sun, because the model tests on the lords Initiative of 7.

I imagine the Throne would act as a normal Chariot if he was killed. I don't have the book on ahnd so I can't say what it would do, though I think Chariot rules would govern that.

Yep 2 handmaidens 2 attacks each, with always strikes first. Don't forget in addition to the 4++ there is also battle of wills which offers some extra protection.

The Throne keeps on "living" until it is destroyed.

Also for some reason, you don't give up Victory Points if both the rider and the mount are not killed! (I know it applies to the mounts when destroyed... not sure if it goes viceversa)

Thanks for all the help!
