Rule
Solitary:

Units containing Solitary can never join other units, and can never be joined by other models.
Note: if a model has both Solitary and Attached, it cannot be Deployed and is therefore considered a casualty.

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.

Stubborn:

When a unit containing Stubborn loses a Round of Combat, halve the penalty to its Discipline from the Combat Score difference, rounding fractions up (i.e. towards a larger modifier).
If the unit is also Steady, the modifier is first set to no smaller than −2 (following the Steady rules), and then halved, rounding up, to −1.
If the unit is Unstable, the Health Point losses due to Unstable are halved, rounding fractions up (i.e. towards more Health Point losses).

Drill Down!:

One use only.
Start of Vanguard Units (Battle Setup, 3.F), a unit containing Drill Down! may choose to be removed from the Battlefield. If so, the unit gains Ambush (Terrain Feature with a friendly Tunnel Marker).
.

Terror:

When a unit containing Terror declares a Charge in the Charge Phase, the target must take a Panic Test. If the test is failed, the unit must choose Flee! as its Charge Reaction if allowed to do so (e.g. not already Engaged in Combat, etc.).
Units containing Terror are themselves immune to the effects of Terror.

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.

Attack Attribute
Grind Attack:

A model part with a Grind Attack can make a Special Attack which is resolved at the model part’s Agility, and inflicts X hits, using the model part’s Strength, Armour Penetration, and Attack Attributes, but not Weapons.
Remember that attacks multiplied into several hits are allocated after establishing how many hits are scored (i.e. after the attack has hit).

Devastating Charge:

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.

Melee Weapon
Innate Weapons:

During Combat Choices a model part can only choose Innate Weapons if it has no other options.
All model parts with Beast, Construct, or Mount come equipped with Innate Weapons as their default equipment and cannot lose them.
