Doomseekers plough recklessly into the enemy, whirling their weapons madly around their heads. They do not attack normally in close combat. Instead, before any attacks are made (even if the enemy charged, and including chariot impact hits and other special attacks that always go first) every enemy model in base contact with one or more Doomseekers takes an automatic hit. Other enemy touching one or more models in base contact with a Doomseeker each take a hit on a roll of a 4+. Resolve rolls to wound and so on as usual. Survivors may attack the Doomseeker as normal, except that his whirling blades always mean the enemy are at -1 to hit.

Against units consisting of only a single model (including mounted monsters and chariots) the Doomseeker inflicts D3 automatic hits on each such unit in contact.
