Special Rule
Regimental Unit: A unit with this special rule can be accompanied by ‘detachments’ (see page 282).
Close Order: A unit consisting of models with this special rule may adopt a Close Order formation.
Stubborn: The first time this unit is required to make a Break test it may choose not to and will automatically Fall Back in Good Order instead, even if the Unit Strength of the winning side is more than twice that of the losing side. A unit that is not Stubborn does not become Stubborn when joined by a character that is. A Stubborn character cannot use this special rule whilst part of a unit that is not Stubborn.
Furious Charge: During a turn in which it made a charge move of 3" or more, a model with this special rule gains a +1 modifier to its Attacks characteristic.
