These nocturnal creatures are not only very large, but are also ferocious predators, capable of attacking and killing an animal the size of a man. They are also cunning scavengers, feeding off the carcasses of larger creatures and found most commonly in the forests of the eastern Old World. The Old World Vampire has the ability to transform itself into a Giant Bat.

Special Rules[]
Giant Bats fly as hoverers and their M score given here is for ground movement. When flying, their mobility allows them to attack in any direction, irrespective of facing, and, in the first round of combat, they gain a +10 bonus to I - unless attacking in illumination equivalent to daylight. The natural "sonar" of a Giant Bat allows it to "see" up to 20 yards in total darkness. There is a 35% chance that the bite of a Giant Bat may cause infected wounds.
