Who is affected ?
(Rule)Description: Unless specifically mentioned otherwise:
• Global and Defensive Characteristic modifiers are applied only to the model part taking the Magic Item (and not to other model parts such as mounts)*.
• Model Rules that are not Attack Attributes are applied to the combined model as a whole.
• Offensive Characteristic modifiers and Attack Attributes are applied only to the model part.
• Rules and modifiers from a Weapon Enchantment are only applied to the Standard Melee Attacks made with the Enchanted Weapon.
Exceptions to above may be noted in the item's description, using terminology such as:
• The wielder, wearer, bearer: These terms mean the same thing for rules purposes and refer to the model part the Magic Item was bought for, and therefore generally do not affect mounts.
• The wielder's model, wearer's model, bearer's model: These terms refer to all model parts of the model the Magic Item was bought for, including their mounts.
• The wielder's unit, wearer's unit, bearer's unit: affects all model parts in the same unit as the model the Magic Item was bought for, including mounts and the model itself.
*Characters on Mounts with fixed Global or Defensive Characteristics values, i.e. anything not C or C+X, do not benefit from +X modifiers to thoses Characteristics.
See Character Mounts section for examples of interactions with Mounts.
