Auxiliary Vehicle Bay Models with the Vehicle Unit Type may Embark on a model with this special rule, Embarking and Disembarking as per the normal rules for Embarking/Disembarking. A model with this special rule may carry one model with the Vehicle Unit Type whose starting Hull Points Characteristic is 4 or less. A model with the Vehicle Unit Type Embarking or Disembarking from a model with this special rule may do so from any point on the model’s base, or its hull if it has no base.
Transport Bay A model with this special rule may carry models of the Dreadnought and Automata Unit Types, as well as models with the Cavalry Unit Type but not the Antigrav Sub-type. Each Dreadnought model uses 10 points of Transport Capacity, while each Automata and Cavalry model uses up a number of Transport Capacity points equal to twice its starting Wounds Characteristic.

After a Shooting Attack has been resolved against a unit composed entirely of models with this special rule, if that unit is not Falling Back, its controlling player can choose for it to become Stupefied. If a unit becomes Stupefied while Pinned or affected by the Blind or Concussive (X) special rules, it ignores the effects of these while Stupefied.
Stupefied
A unit that is Stupefied can only fire Snap Shots and cannot make Reactions in any Phase. If a unit that is Stupefied has a Charge declared for it, then that Charge is always considered to be Disordered. Furthermore, whilst Stupefied, all models in that unit increase their Strength Characteristic by +1 and when a model in a Stupefied unit suffers an unsaved Wound, it can make a special Stupefied roll to ignore it. Stupefied rolls may not be taken against attacks that have the Instant Death special rule. Roll a D6 each time an unsaved Wound is suffered. On a 6+, the unsaved Wound is ignored. On any other result the Wound is applied as normal. Add 1 to Stupefied rolls made for units which have the Fearless special rule. A Stupefied roll is a Damage Mitigation roll – any model may make only a single Damage Mitigation roll of any type for any given Wound.
At the end of its controlling player’s following turn, the unit is no longer Stupefied. Whilst it is Stupefied, a unit does not take further Morale checks in the Movement phase or Shooting phase and cannot be Pinned. If the unit is forced to move, for example, if it has to Fall Back, it is no longer Stupefied. If assaulted, the unit will fight as usual, but enemy units do not receive the Initiative penalty for having Charged a unit through Difficult Terrain, even if the Stupefied unit is in Difficult Terrain. If a unit becomes Stupefied while making a Charge, then that Charge continues as normal, but is automatically counted as Disordered. Units that are locked in combat can be Stupefied, but take Morale checks in the Assault phase as normal and if forced to Fall Back are no longer Stupefied.
