(Rule)Description: • All models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type have the following special rules: Independent Character, Eternal Warrior, Fear (2), It Will Not Die (5+), Bulky (6), and Relentless. In addition, all models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type always count as Character models.
• Models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type are not affected by special rules that negatively modify their Characteristics (other than Wounds) and, in addition, models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type always resolve Snap Shots at their normal BS.
• All models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type are immune to the effects of the Fear (X) special rule, cannot be Pinned, and a unit that includes one or more models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type automatically passes Pinning and Regroup tests and cannot choose to fail a Morale check due to the Our Weapons Are Useless special rule. When a unit that includes one or more models with the Daemon Primarch Unit Type fails a Morale check, the unit does not Fall Back as per the standard rules, but instead suffers D3 automatic Wounds with no Saves of any kind allowed which must be allocated to a model with the Daemon Primarch or Daemon Unit Type or the Corrupted Unit Sub-type.
