WEAPON:
One blood cannon with a 90° field of fire to the front. The blood cannon
uses Inferno Cannon rules. See the Imperial Guard codex for full rules
on the Inferno Cannon. However, the blood cannon will affect crew members
of an armored vehicle target on a D6 roll of 4, 5 or 6, rather than only
on a roll of 6 as is the case with the Inferno Cannon.
SPECIAL:
As a demon engine of Khorne, the Cauldron uses the Demonic Posession
and the Destroyer vehicle cards from the Chaos codex. These cards are
already reflected in the datafax. See the vehicle cards in the Chaos codex
for full details.
PSYCHOLOGY:
The Cauldron of Blood causes Terror as described in the Psychology section
of the rulebook.

| D6 | Wheel Damage Table |
| 1 | The wheels are damaged but keep rolling. The Cauldron of Blood may only move at slow speed for the rest of the game. |
| 2-5 | A wheel is destroyed. The Cauldron of Blood moves out of control next turn and then comes to a permanent halt for the rest of the battle. |
| 6 | A wheel is blown off and the resulting damage causes the Cauldron of Blood to flip over. The wreck comes to rest D6" away in a random direction. Any model it lands on takes D6 S7 hits with a -2 saving throw modifier. |
| D6 | Hull Damage Table |
| 1-4 | No effect. |
| 5 | The Cauldron of Blood's engine explodes and the vehicle is spun round to face in a random direction by the force of the explosion and then comes to a permanent halt. It may still fire. |
| 6 | A spark ignites the Cauldron of Blood's fuel tank and it bursts into flames. The Cauldron of Blood is destroyed and any models within 3" of the vehicle suffer D6 Strength 10 hits with a -3 saving throw modifier. |
| D6 | Blood Cannon Damage Table |
| 1 | The blood cannon is damaged and may only be fired if you first roll a 4 or more on a 1D6. |
| 2-5 | The blood cannon is destroyed and the weapon may not fire for the rest of the game. |
| 6 | The blood cannon is destroyed as above, but the explosion causes a flashback to the hull causing a secondary explosion there. Roll on the Hull Damage Table to find out what effect this has. |
