Rules (5)
Bulky (X)
Models with the Bulky (X) Special Rule take up more space on Transport Models."
A Model with the Bulky (X) Special Rule does not use up 1 Point of Transport Capacity when it Embarks on a Model with the Transport Sub-Type. Instead it uses up a number of points of Transport Capacity equal to the value of X attached to eh variant of the Bulky (X) possessed by that Model.
Vanguard (X)
"A Unit that includes Models with this Special Rule scores fewer Victory Points for controlling Objectives, but can score Victory Points destroying enemy Units that hold Objectives."
A Unit that includes a majority of Models with the Vanguard (X) Special Rule may only ever score 1 Victory Point for Controlling an Objective, regardless of that Objective's value (see Core Missions in the Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook). However, the Player that controls a Unit that includes a majority of Models with the Vanguard (X) Special Rule gains Victory Points equal to the value of the X in the Vanguard (X) Special Rule, in addition to any Victory Points scored for controlling an Objective, whenever either of the following two statuses are fulfilled:

- If an attack made for a Unit that includes a majority of Models with the Vanguard (X) Special Rule causes the last Model in an enemy Unit that is Controlling or Contesting an Objective to be Removed as a Casualty.

- If a Unit that includes a majority of Models with the Vanguard (X) Special Rule has at least one attack made for it in a Combat that results in one or more enemy Units that had at least one Model within 3"" of an Objective at the start of that Assault Phase either Falling Back from Combat or being Massacred.

Note that the Vanguard (X) Special Rule may only be used to score Victory Points once per Objective per Player Turn - no matter how many enemy Units were Controlling or Locked in Combat near that Objective.
Firestorm
"A Model with this Special Rule does not have to make Volley Attacks as Snap Shots"
When a Model with this Special Rule makes Volley Attacks, it is not required to fire Snap Shots. In addition, after making Volley Attacks in Step 4 of the Charge Procedure, a Unit containing any Models with this Special Rule is not required to make a Charge Roll in Step 5. If the Controlling Player chooses not to make a Charge Roll in Step 5 of the Charge Procedure then the Charge Procedure ends immediately.
Implacable Advance
"Models with this Special Rule can make Volley Attacks with other Weapons."
The Controlling Player of a Model with this Special Rule treats all Ranged Weapons such a Model has that do not have any variant of the Heavy (X) Special Rule or Ordnance (X) Special Rule as having the Assault Trait.
Outflank
"A Unit of Models with the Outflank Special Rule can enter play from outside of Deployment Zones."
A Unit made up entirely of Models with this Special Rule that enters play from Reserves may do so from any point on the Battlefield Edge. The Unit may not enter play from any point that is within the Opposing Player's Deployment Zone or withing 7"" of any enemy Model.

Note that a Unit Embarked on a Model with the Outflank Special Rule does not need to have the Outflank Special Rule in order for the Model it is Embarked upon to benefit from it. A Model that enters the Battlefield from a point outside of the Controlling Player's Deployment Zone by means of this Special Rule, and any Units Embarked on such a Model, may not have a Charge declared for them in the Player Turn on which they enter play.
