Castellan missiles are fired singly, each contains dozens of mines which upon the Castellan's detonation scatter over a wide area. The Castellan can target enemy units normally or be fired at an empty area so that no friendly or enemy models are under the Blast marker. Resolve the shot as you would if it were firing a Vengeance missile but instead of wounding enemy under the large template place a marker the size of a large Blast marker there for the remainder of the game. This represents the area covered by the minefield. Any enemy model moving over the minefield triggers a mine on a roll of 4+, taking a strength 6, AP- hit. Vehicles are always hit on their rear armour. Skimmers and jump infantry area affected normally.
