Rules (7)
Fearsome Ruin
The controlling player of any unit which suffers one or more casualties from this weapon and makes a Morale check during the Assault phase must roll an additional D6 for that Check and keep the two highest dice to determine the result of that Morale check.
Two-handed
A model attacking with this weapon never receives +1 Attack for fighting with two Melee weapons (see page 177).
Shred
If a model has the Shred special rule, or is attacking with a Melee weapon that has the Shred rule, it re-rolls failed To Wound rolls in close combat.

Similarly, if a model makes a Shooting Attack with a weapon that has the Shred rule, it re-rolls its failed To Wound rolls.
Breaching (X)
When rolling To Wound for a model that has the Breaching (X) special rule, or is attacking with a weapon that has the Breaching (X) special rule, for each To Wound roll equal to or higher than the value listed in brackets, the controlling player must resolve these wounds at AP 2 instead of the weapon’s normal AP value. This rule has no effect on models that do not have Wounds, such as models with the Vehicle Unit Type.

For example, a model with the Breaching (5+) special rule that rolls To Wound and rolls a result of ‘5’ or higher, the Wound inflicted gains an AP of ‘2’ regardless of the AP value listed on the weapon’s profile. Note that a weapon that has both the Breaching (X) and the Gets Hot special rules always uses the base AP of the weapon when rolls of ‘1’ To Hit inflict Wounds on the attacking model.
Reaping Blow (X)
If a model is in base contact with more than one enemy model in the Initiative step in which they fight, they gain a number of Attacks equal to the value of X as noted in the variant of the special rule (if no value of X is included then count the value of X as 1).
Master-crafted
Weapons with the Master-crafted special rule allow the bearer to re-roll one failed roll To Hit per turn with that weapon.
Melee Weapon*
Both the Lion Sword and the Wolf Blade benefit from the +1 To Hit from the Deathwing Unit Sub-type during any turn where Lion El’Jonson is using that Unit Sub-type.
