The Day Of Sorrows
(Rule)Description: Effects
• A Detachment using this Rite of War may select Crimson Paladin units as non-Compulsory Troops choices and all Crimson Paladin units in a Detachment with this Rite of War gain the Line Sub-type.
• All models in a unit from a Detachment using this Rite of War that are made up entirely of models with the Infantry Unit Type and the Legiones Astartes (Blood Angels) special rule, gain the Stubborn special rule while they have at least one model within 6" of an Objective, If they already have the Stubborn or Fearless special rules then they gain no further benefit.
• When any unit made up entirely of models with the Infantry Unit Type and the Legiones Astartes (Blood Angels) special rule which is a part of a Detachment which uses this Rite of War is reduced to 50% or less of its starting number of models, the remaining models gain the Heart of the Legion and Hatred (Everything) special rules and Line Sub-type (if they did not already have it) from the beginning of their next turn – this lasts for the remainder of the battle.
Limitations
• In any combat that includes one or more models with the Character Sub-type from a Detachment using this Rite of War, the controlling player must issue or accept Challenges in combat where applicable. The controlling player chooses which of their Characters issues or accepts Challenges where there is more than one eligible model in a given combat.
• Any units made up entirely of models with the Infantry or Cavalry Unit Type and the Legiones Astartes (Blood Angels) special rule which are a part of a Detachment using this Rite of War and that have been reduced to 50% or less of its starting number of models must declare a Charge at the closest enemy unit if they are capable of making a Charge (i.e., not Pinned, Falling Back or otherwise restricted from Charging) at the beginning of the Charge sub-phase, as long as the target unit is no more than 12" away from a model in the Charging unit. If there are no enemy units with at least one model within 12" then no Charge need be declared.
• No units from a Detachment using this Rite of War may be assigned to a Deep Strike Assault, Subterranean Assault or Flanking Assault, and may not be placed in Reserves at the beginning of the battle (although models may enter Reserves after play has begun).
