Rule
Light Troops:

A unit entirely with Light Troops can perform Reform Move Manoeuvres up to twice its Mobility (instead of the normal half Mobility).
If, while doing a Reform Move Manoeuvre, its centre moves further than its Mobility, the move is considered a March Move for the purpose of rules triggered due to Marching (e.g. Dangerous Terrain Test and, if Undead, being restricted from performing a March Move, etc.).
For the purpose of shooting, this is still a Reform Move. I.e. the unit can shoot if moving further than its Mobility.
Note: this rule has no effect on other Move Manoeuvres, including March Moves.
A unit containing Light Troops is always considered to have zero Proper Ranks; ignore Attachable Models with Light Troops joined to a unit for this purpose, unless the unit consists of only Attachable Models.

Skirmisher:

Units containing Skirmisher adopt a unique formation, called a Skirmish Formation. Instead of being in contact with each other, these models are placed 12.5mm apart from each other (roughly half an inch, see the figure below).
These gaps between the models are considered part of the unit for Cover and Line of Sight purposes, and have the same Height as the unit.
Other than this gap between models, units with Skirmisher follow the normal rules for forming units and therefore have a Front, two Flanks, and a Rear Facing, can perform Supporting Attacks, and so on.
Units in Skirmish Formation can only be joined by Attachable Models that have the same Height as the unit.
Unless an Attachable Model has the exact same base size as all Rank-and-File models in the unit, it is considered Mismatched for the purpose of placement within the unit.
The unit ceases to be in Skirmish Formation when all models with Skirmisher have been removed. When this happens, contract their Skirmish Formation into a normal formation when returning the unit into a valid formation, without moving the centre of the first rank. If Engaged in Combat, nudge any unit as normal to maintain contact.
See figure figure/skirmisher for an illustration of this rule. Skirmish formation.An example of a unit in Skirmish Formation with a joined Mismatching Character. All models are 12.5 mm away from each other.
The same unit Engaged in Combat. Only darkened models may attack. Models with a dashed frame can attack a Character (either C1 or C2). Models with a lighter shade cannot attack at all.

Strider:

If Strider is associated with a specific type of Terrain, which would be indicated in brackets (X). In such cases, Strider only affects the unit’s interaction with this Terrain Feature.
Models with Strider may ignore rules associated with Terrain Features, with the following exceptions:
  • They cannot ignore any rule affecting Line of Sight or Cover.
  • They cannot ignore any rule associated with Weakness.
  • They cannot ignore the Impassable rule of Impassable Terrain. A Health Pool with Strider never fulfils the criteria for which models must take Dangerous Terrain Tests due to the associated Terrain Feature (but still needs to take Dangerous Terrain Tests from other sources, such as Terrain Features not associated with its Strider rule, or when making a Flee Move through an enemy unit).
In addition, if the unit contains a Rank-and-File model with Strider, it ignores the Disruptive rule of any Terrain Feature associated to its Strider rule.

Elven Cloak:

For Shooting Attacks allocated against a Health Pool with Elven Cloak a to-hit roll of '1', '2', or '3' is always considered a miss, instead of the usual '1'.

Hard Target:

Shooting Attacks allocated against a Health Pool with Hard Target suffer −X to hit.

Big Game Hunters:

The attack gains +1 to hit and always wounds on at least 4+ when allocated towards a Health Pool entirely with Height 4-5.
