All Melee hits landed by this unit have a +(n) modifier when rolling to damage.
If this unit, or any Friendly Core unit within 6" is Routed, the opponent must re-roll that Nerve test, according to name or keyword qualifiers. The second result stands.
When this unit completes its hit and damage rolls in Melee combat, it removes 1 damage previously suffered for every 1 damage it causes, up to a max of (n). Lifeleech has a max total of 3.
When this unit receives a Movement order, before doing anything else, roll a number of dice equal to the damage on the unit. For every result of (n) or higher, it immediately removes 1 damage previously suffered.
RANGE: 12" || TARGETS: Friendly (Shambling) || MODIFIERS: - || EFFECT: For each hit landed, the target must move directly forward 1" (stopping just out of contact with Friendly units and Blocking Terrain). Fly is not in effect for this. Contacting Enemies results in a Charge (so align & shuffle), but those units will now skip this Ranged Phase's Nerve tests, if any. Align to facing contacted, or IF you'll Charge a corner, note the leader point BEFORE Surging forward, and align to the arc's facing that the target Friendly unit's leader point started in! If contacting 2+ Enemies simultaneously, the casting player chooses which to Charge. Surging over an Obstacle or Difficult Terrain is a Hindered Charge as normal. No effect on units with Speed 0.
Never block LoS and does not provide Cover. Free 360 degree pivots before Movement orders and picking Ranged targets. Nimble, and may protect this unit's facings in Friendly base contact. Yielding (KoW3 p34), unless also Mighty. Enemies making Ranged attacks against this unit suffer an additional -1 to hit modifier. Steady Aim. Aligns to the first Charger to contact (except during Overrun), but the Chargers shuffle. Enemies, and this unit, do not double/triple attacks against each other for flank/rear Charges, except this unit against War Engines. Overrun (KoW3 p34).
Individuals with this rule are no longer Yielding.
