Rule
Callous:

The model may use Shooting Attacks towards enemy units Engaged in Combat, with the following rules and restrictions:
  • Friendly units Engaged in this Combat are ignored for Cover purposes (but not for drawing Line of Sight).
  • Roll to-hit as normal against the intended target. Immediately after determining the number of hits, roll a D6 for each hit. On a roll of 4+, the hit is distributed onto a randomly chosen friendly unit Engaged with the original target. Otherwise, proceed as normal.

Attack Attribute
Cohort Coordination:

While the unit has a Standard Bearer and the General is on the Battlefield, it:
  • Gains Fight in Extra Rank.
  • May reroll a failed Command Test. If it chooses to do this, and still fails the test, the unit loses Standard Bearer, and you must remove one Rank-and-File model from the unit as a casualty (no saves allowed).

Melee Weapon
Hand Weapon:

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.
