Donation

While Necronomicon is completely free, developing and mantaining a website requires a lot of time (and quite some money), if you want to say thank you or just to encourage my work, please, consider making a donation.

Wamp

Loyalty Card

Wamp

⁽⁴⁾

Pay 2 Doom points to obtain this Loyalty Card, then choose an enemy to place all 4 Wamps in any Area without a Gate.

Cost: 1

Combat: 0

Crypt Dweller (Doom Phase):
Choose an enemy to place all Wamps from your Pool int oany Area or Areas without a Gate. (You may still summon Wamps normally.)

Neutral Monsters

A player may purchase a Neutral Monster's Loyalty Card during the Doom Phase. A player may never purchase more than one of these in a given Doom Phase, but there is no limit to the number of Neutral Monster Loyalty Cards a player may possess.

To purchase one of these Loyalty Cards, pay 2 Doom when it is your turn to perform a Ritual of Annihilation. If you wish, you may still perform the Ritual. When spending Doom, choose a Neutral Monster Loyalty Card from among those available, placing that card and its associated Monsters by your Faction Card. You will typically have the opportunity to immediately place one of these new Monsters for free.

Once you have purchased a Neutral Monster Loyalty Card, it is yours for the rest of the game. From then on only you may Summon and Control its associated Neutral Monsters.

Voonith

Loyalty Card

Voonith

⁽²⁾

Pay 2 Doom points to obtain this Loyalty Card, then place 1 Voonith at one of your Controlled Gates.

Cost: 3

Combat: 1

Vicious (Post-Battle):
For each Kill you score fewer than the number of Vooniths involved in the Battle, add 1 Kill. (I.e., if you have 2 Vooniths in the Battle and roll 1 Kill, add 1 extra Kill for a total of 2: if you rolled no Kills, add 2 Kills).

Neutral Monsters

A player may purchase a Neutral Monster's Loyalty Card during the Doom Phase. A player may never purchase more than one of these in a given Doom Phase, but there is no limit to the number of Neutral Monster Loyalty Cards a player may possess.

To purchase one of these Loyalty Cards, pay 2 Doom when it is your turn to perform a Ritual of Annihilation. If you wish, you may still perform the Ritual. When spending Doom, choose a Neutral Monster Loyalty Card from among those available, placing that card and its associated Monsters by your Faction Card. You will typically have the opportunity to immediately place one of these new Monsters for free.

Once you have purchased a Neutral Monster Loyalty Card, it is yours for the rest of the game. From then on only you may Summon and Control its associated Neutral Monsters.

Hound of Tindalos

Loyalty Card

Hound of Tindalos

⁽¹⁾

Pay 2 Doom and 2 Power to obtain this Loyalty Card, then place the Hound of Tindalos at any Gate (even one you don't Control).

Cost: 4

Combat: 4

Cronophage (Ongoing):
The Hound cannot perform the Move Action by itself. The Hound Moves for free whenever you Move any other Unit. In doing so, the Hound teleports directly from an Area with a Gate to another Area with a Gate – neither of which need to be Controlled by you (or anyone).

Angles of Time (Ongoing):
The Hound cannot be assigned a Kill in Battle. However, if a Hound is ever in an Area without a Gate (due to being Pained to such an Area, or the Gate itself being desttroyed or moved, etc.), it is Eliminated. It can also be Eliminated if it cannot be Pained due to Enemy presence in adjacent Areas (per normal Pain rules).

Terrors

Terrors are Summoned as though they are Monsters, and require a Controlled Gate to be able to enter play. They are equal to Monsters in their ability to Capture Cultists. That is, Monsters can protect Cultists against Terrors (and vice versa), and Great Old Ones can still Capture Cultists protected by Terrors. However,as Terrors are a different type of Unit, they are not vulnerable to abilities that specifically target Monsters.

To acquire a Terror, pay 2 Power and 2 Doom when it is your turn to perform a Ritual of Annihilation. You may still perform the Ritual, if you wish. Take your choice of available Terror Loyalty Cards and follow the instructions for placing your new figure on the Map.

Players may only purchase a single Loyalty Card in any given Doom Phase, so they may not gain a Neutral Monster in the same Doom Phase in which they acquire a Terror (and vice versa). Once a Terror Loyalty Card has been acquired, it belongs to that player for the rest of the game. Only that player may Summon and control that Terror.
