Summoned Lesser Daemons
(Rule)Description: Units of Summoned Lesser Daemons do not use up any force organisation chart selection, but are otherwise treated as Troops units.
Units of Daemons always start the game in Reserve, even in Missions that do not normally allow the Reserves rule to be used. When a Daemon unit becomes available from Reserve, it must be deployed as detailed below.
Once deployed, the Daemons cannot do anything else in that turn's Movement phase, but after that they are free to act as normal (they can Assault in the same turn that they enter the game).
A unit of Summoned Lesser Daemons is deployed in the same way as a unit that arrives from Reserve using the Deep Strike rule, and the first model must be placed within 6" of an Icon of Chaos. If there are no Icons of Chaos on the table at the time the summoned unit becomes available, the unit cannot enter the battle and is destroyed (Icons belonging to other units that have arrived from Reserve in the same turn cannot be used). As normal, because they always appear within range of an Icon of Chaos, the Deep Striking Daemons do not roll for scatter. If the model carrying the icon is inside of a transport when the Daemons become available from Reserve, the Daemons must Deep Strike within 6" of the vehicle (and will not scatter).
