The Maw is a direct damage. Place the small round template anywhere within 18" of the caster. Roll the artillery dice and the scatter dice. Unless a Hit! Is rolled, move the template the distance shown on the artillery dice, in the direction shown on the scatter dice. If a misfire is rolled, the opposing player picks up the template and repositions it anywhere on the battlefield. The artillery dice and scatter dice are then rolled again to see if the template scatters from the new target point (re-roll any further misfires until a result other than a misfire is rolled). Once the final position of the template is determined, all models under the template must take an Initiative test. Models that pass the test suffer a Strength 3 hit from The Maw's sharp teeth as they scrabble clear. Models that fail the test are savaged by The Maw and suffer a Strength 7 hit with the Multiple Wounds (D6) special rule. The Maw then closes with a satisfied burp and the template is removed. The caster can choose to use the large template instead of the small template. If he does so, the casting value of The Maw is increased to 21+.
