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.

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.

Life is Cheap:

When calculating Combat Score, ignore the first two Health Point losses of Health Pools with Life is Cheap in each Round of Combat.
Note: the number of ignored Health Point losses is not affected by the amount of Health Pools.
Units containing Life is Cheap that are both Steady and Solid get +2 Discipline when taking Break Tests.

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.

Scout:

Units entirely with Scout are not required to be Deployed inside their Deployment Zone: instead, they can be Deployed anywhere on the Battlefield, at least 12" away from the opponent’s Deployment Zone.
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.

Ambush:

Any unit entirely with Ambush may choose to not be Deployed normally, but to be placed in Ambush by simply not being placed on the Battlefield during Deployment. A unit placed in Ambush will arrive on the Battlefield later during the game.
From your Player Turn 2 and onwards, roll a D6 for each unit placed in Ambush at the start of the Movement Phase: every unit that rolls a 3+ will arrive on the Battlefield if possible.
During your Player Turn 5 and 6, this roll is always considered to have rolled a 3+.
When a unit arrives on the Battlefield, choose a point as specified by X. If no suitable point is available where the unit can be placed on the Battlefield, the unit cannot arrive on the Battlefield this turn.
Deploy each unit arriving on the Battlefield with at least three of its four corners within 6" from the chosen point in any valid formation following the Unit Spacing rule.
There must be no other units or Impassable Terrain directly located between any point on the Unit Boundary and the chosen point. See the figure below for examples.
Ambushing units count as having performed an Advance Move when they arrive on the Battlefield, and cannot perform any Move in the same Phase.
If an Ambushing unit does not arrive on the Battlefield by the end of the game, it is removed as a casualty.
An Attachable Models placed in Ambush can be Deployed joined to a unit placed in Ambush with the same X value, following the usual restrictions. It may choose a unit to be joined to during each of your Player Turns, before rolling to see if your Ambushing units arrive on the Battlefield.
Make a single dice roll for the Combined Unit.
Note: Attached has no effect on this; the choice of a unit to be Deployed in Ambush in may change each turn.

A unit arriving on the Battlefield in Game Turn 6 loses Scoring. Deploying Ambushing units.In these examples, the unit has Ambush (Battlefield Edge). The unit with the yellow check mark is placed in a valid position, while the two units with red crosses are not: the left one because there is an Impassable Terrain Feature between the Unit Boundary and the chosen point, and the right one because parts of the unit are more than 6" away from the chosen point.

Hard Target:

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

Melee Weapon
Paired Weapons:

+1 Att, +1 Off. Two-Handed.
Attacks made with Paired Weapons ignore Parry.

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.
