A Model with this Special Rule may Embark or Disembark from a Transport, even if its Type would normally stop it from doing so. A Model with this Special Rule may Embark and Disembark from a Model with the Transport Sub-Type as though it had the Infantry Type. This does not replace its existing Type or grant it any other benefits of the Infantry Type, nor allow it to interact with other Rules or Special Rules that target or affect the Infantry Type.
"A Model with this Special Rule can explode and cause Hits to nearby Models and Units." Before a Model with the Explodes (X) Special Rule is Removed as a Casualty, the Controlling Player must roll a Dice. If the result of that roll equals or exceeds the value of X attached to this variant of the Explodes (X) Special Rule, the Model explodes. Every Unit with one or more models within 6" of an exploding Model suffers a number of Hits equal to the Base Wounds Characteristic of Base Hull Points Characteristic of the exploding Model. Each such Hit has a Strength of 8, an AP of '-', and a Damage of 1. Once all Hits caused by this Special Rule have been resolved, the Model with the Explodes (X) Special Rule is Removed as a Casualty as normal.
"On a successful Charge, a Model with the Impact (X) Special Rule temporarily increases a Characteristic by 1." If a Unit that includes any Models with the Impact (X) Special Rule or any Models that have any Weapons with the Impact (X) Special Rule, and that Unit makes a successful Charge, then this Special Rule is triggered. Once triggered, until the end of that Assault Phase, when making Melee Attacks for Models in that Unit, each Model or Weapon that is selected for one of those Models, that has a variant of this Special Rule, gains a modifier of +1 to any Characteristics that is the value of X.
"A Model with this Special Rule improves their Invulnerable Save against Shooting Attacks." When the Controlling Player of a Model with this Special Rule chooses to make an Invulnerable Save for that Model against a wound generated by a Shooting Attack, that Invulnerable Save is improved by one step. For example, a Model with a 6+ Invulnerable Save Characteristic and this Special Rule that makes an Invulnerable saving throw against a wound inflicted by a Shooting Attack would have its Invulnerable Save Characteristic improved to a 5+ for that roll.
