Kestrel Knight

Command Tests taken by a unit containing Disciplined benefit from Minimised.

A unit entirely with Feigned Flight automatically passes any Rally Test it takes after voluntarily becoming Shaken.
In addition, models with Fearless and Feigned Flight ignore Fearless for the purposes of choosing 'Flee!' as a Charge reaction. I.e. if every model with Fearless in a (combined) unit has Feigned Flight, the unit can 'Flee!'.

A unit entirely with Hit and Run in contact with an enemy unit may choose to voluntarily become “Broken” at the start of Take Break Tests (Round of Combat, 3.C). In that case, the unit is considered to have failed a Break Test and is ignored for the rest of step 3.C.
If the unit was on the winning side of the Round of Combat, the enemy cannot Pursue.
Note: this means units with Supernal or Unstable suffer no Health Point loss if they voluntarily become “Broken”.

Units entirely with Fly ignore Terrain Features, Open Terrain and other units during Move Manoeuvres and Charge Moves.
The unit must follow the Unit Spacing rule at the end of any of its moves, and Terrain Features and Open Terrain from which the model starts or ends its move still affect it.
The charged unit is not ignored during a Charge Move, and there must be room for the unit’s Front Facing to be placed in contact with the charged unit before the Initial Align Move.

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.

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.

Rolls for Charge Range, Flee Distance and Pursue Distance by units entirely with Swiftstride gain Maximised.

After Deployment, units entirely with Vanguard may perform a pre-game Reform, Advance, or March Move, called a Vanguard Move, with the following exceptions:
  • If a value X is given, the units Mobility is always X during the Vanguard Move otherwise use the units Mobility.
  • No model can move further than 12" during the Vanguard Move, regardless of its Mobility.
  • The unit cannot end the Vanguard Move within 6" of an enemy unit.
  • Attachable Models cannot leave a unit as part of the Vanguard Move. If both players have units entirely with Vanguard, they alternate moving their units one by one, starting with the unit the Defender has given Vanguard (3" Mob) to.
A unit that starts the game outside its own Deployment Zone cannot declare a Charge in the first Player Turn of the first Game Turn.

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'.

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

A Charging model part with Devastating Charge, or using a weapon with Devastating Charge, gains the Rules and Characteristic modifiers stated in brackets.
For example, a model part with Devastating Charge (+1 Str) gains +1 Str when Charging.

During Combat Choices a model part can only choose a Hand Weapon if it has no other options, or is a Weapon Master.
Models with a Shield using a Hand Weapon gain Parry.
All model parts without Innate Weapons come equipped with a Hand Weapon as their default equipment and cannot lose it.
