Zeal
Over the course of a battle, you must keep track of the warband’s Zeal. As your warband passes each Zeal threshold, apply the corresponding effect to all friendly fighters in the warband with the WITCH HUNTERS keyword.
| Zeal Threshold | Effect |
|---|---|
| 0 | Grim: When a friendly fighter makes an attack action against a fighter with an accusation token, you may increase their Fight or Shoot characteristic by 1. |
| 5 | Wrathful: When a friendly fighter makes an attack action against a fighter with an accusation token, you may turn 1 hit into a critical hit. |
| 10 | Frenzied: When a friendly fighter is targeted by an attack action, you may turn 1 critical hit into a hit. |
| 15+ | Maddened: All friendly fighters must decrease their Defense characteristic by 1, but will pass any Bravery test they are required to take. |
