Adamantium Will (X+) Models with the Adamantium Will special rule gain an Invulnerable Save against any Wound inflicted by a weapon with the Force or Psychic Focus special rules and Wounds inflicted by Perils of the Warp – the value of this Save is indicated in brackets after the rule. For example, a model with Adamantium Will (5+) gains a 5+ Invulnerable Save against any Wound inflicted by a weapon with the Force or Psychic Focus special rules and Wounds inflicted by Perils of the Warp. If, for any reason, the Adamantium Will special rule is presented without a value in brackets then consider the rule to be Adamantium Will (5+).
Shrouded (X) When a model with this special rule suffers an unsaved Wound, Glancing Hit or Penetrating Hit, it can make a special Shrouded roll to ignore it (this is not a Saving Throw and so can be used against attacks that state that 'no Saves of any kind are allowed'). Shrouded rolls may not be taken against Melee Attacks, against attacks with the Ignores Cover special rule or for models with the Fearless special rule.
Roll a D6 each time an unsaved Wound, Glancing Hit or Penetrating Hit is suffered by a model with this special rule. On a result that is equal to or greater than the value in brackets, that unsaved Wound, Glancing Hit or Penetrating Hit is ignored. On any other result, the Wound, Glancing Hit or Penetrating Hit is applied as normal. For example, a unit with the special rule Shrouded (6+) would need to score a 6 in order to ignore a Wound, Glancing Hit or Penetrating Hit inflicted upon it.
If on any unit this rule is presented simply as Shrouded, without a value in brackets, then count it as Shrouded (6+)
This is a Damage Mitigation roll - any model may make only a single Damage Mitigation roll of any type for any given Wound, Glancing Hit or Penetrating Hit (see page 174).
Legiones Astartes (Thousand Sons) Cult Arcana: All models with the Infantry or Cavalry Unit Type (but not those with the Artillery or Automated Artillery Sub-type) with this special rule gain the Psyker Sub-type (this does not grant any Disciplines, but does not otherwise remove any Discipline a model already has access to). In addition, all models with the Infantry or Cavalry Unit Type and and the Character Unit Sub-type that have this special rule must select one Minor Arcana option ( See the Prosperine Arcana special rule). Any model with the Infantry or or Cavalry Unit Types and both the independent Character and Legiones astartes (Thousand Sons) special rule that does not already have one or more Psychic Disciplines may be upgraded for +15 additional points to gain a single Psychic Discipline from the Core Psychic Discipline list (see the Horus Heresy Age of Darkness rulebook, page 322).
