Among the Ranks
(Rule)Description: An Imperialis Militia Discipline Master Cadre is selected like any other unit, using up a single Force Organisation slot and bought in the same manner. However, before the first turn begins and any models are deployed to the battlefield, all models in an Imperialis Militia Discipline Master Cadre must be assigned to another unit from the same Detachment of the army they were selected as part of. Discipline Masters may only be assigned to units composed entirely of models with the Infantry Unit Type and Militia Unit Sub-type, unless upgraded to a Mounted Discipline Master, in which case that model must be assigned to an Imperialis Militia Cavalry Squad. No more than one Discipline Master may be assigned to any given unit. Once assigned to a unit, the Discipline Master is considered part of that unit and may not leave it under any circumstances – if that unit is removed as a casualty then the Discipline Master is removed as well. In battles using Victory points, no Victory points are ever scored for removing a Discipline Master as a casualty. When assigned to a unit, a Discipline Master gains all of the special rules (with the exception of those that specifically forbid it, such as the Bitter Duty special rule) and Unit Sub-types listed for the unit to which it is attached, but does not gain access to any additional Wargear options available to the unit to which it is assigned.
