Legiones Consularis
(Rule)Description: Any Legion Centurion may select a single Consul upgrade; no model may take more than one such upgrade.
All Legion Centurions, Legion Cataphractii Centurions and Legion Tartaros Centurions have the Legiones Consularis special rule – this allows them to select a single Consul upgrade. However, no Legion Centurion, Legion Cataphractii Centurion or Legion Tartaros Centurion may take more than one such upgrade, and some upgrades may not be available to all types of Centurion. If certain upgrades are available to only certain Centurions, it will be noted in their description along with any other benefits or restrictions. Each Consul upgrade must be bought at a cost in points, indicated as part of the Consul type’s description. In addition, each Consul upgrade grants the model a number of additional special rules or items of additional Wargear. They may also modify the model’s Unit Type, Unit Sub-type or Characteristics. In all cases, the Consul type’s description will indicate all changes, benefits and restrictions.
Terminology: Centurions & Consuls
A Legion Centurion, Legion Cataphractii Centurion or Legion Tartaros Centurion that selects any Consul upgrade is thereafter referred to as a Legion Consul. If a rule or requirement specifically calls for a Legion Centurion, Legion Cataphractii Centurion or Legion Tartaros Centurion then that requirement may only be fulfilled by the specific model called for, that has not also selected a Consul upgrade. If a rule or requirement calls for a Legion Consul then that requirement may only be fulfilled by a model that has selected an appropriate Consul upgrade. Both Legion Centurions and Legion Consuls of any kind are HQ choices and may be chosen as Warlords unless a Consul’s specific rules state otherwise.
