Prioritised Efficiency
If your Army Faction is ^^**Leagues of Votann^^**, ^^**Leagues of Votann^^** units from your army have one of two abilities: Hostile Acquisition or Fortify Takeover (see below). During the battle, which ability those ^^**Leagues of Votann^^** units have will change depending on how many Yield points (YP) you currently have:
- At the start of the battle, your units have Hostile Acquisition until the start of your next Command phase.

- At the end of your Command phase, if you have fewer than 7YP, your units have Hostile Acquisition until the start of your next Command phase.

- At the end of your Command phase, if you have 7YP or more, your units have Fortify Takeover until the start of your next Command phase.

**Hostile Acquisition**
- Each time a model in this unit makes an attack that targets an enemy unit within range of one or more objective markers, add 1 to the Hit roll.

- You can re‑roll Advance and Charge rolls made for this unit.

**Fortify Takeover**
- Each time a model in this unit makes an attack that targets an enemy unit, if this unit is within range of one or more objective markers you control, add 1 to the Hit roll.

- Each time an attack targets this unit, if the Strength characteristic of that attack is greater than this unit’s Toughness characteristic and this unit is not a Vehicle, subtract 1 from the Wound roll.


**Yield Points**
At the end of each player’s Command phase, you gain 1YP if you control one or more objective markers within your deployment zone, and, from the second battle round onwards, you gain 1 additional YP for each of the following conditions you satisfy:
You control one or more objective markers not within your deployment zone.
You control two or more objective markers not within your deployment zone.
You control more objective markers than your opponent.


In your turn, YP gained in this way are always gained before checking which ability ^^**Leagues of Votann**^^ units from your army have.


Whenever a rule allows you to spend YP, reduce the number of YP you have by that amount (your YP cannot go below 0), otherwise you cannot use that rule.

Abilities
Merciless Eradication:

Each time an enemy unit (excluding Monsters and Vehicles) that is within Engagement Range of this unit Falls Back, all models in that enemy unit must take a Desperate Escape test. When doing so, if that enemy unit is Battle-shocked, subtract 1 from each of those tests.

Guerrilla Adepts:

In your Shooting phase, just after this unit is selected to shoot, this unit can use this ability. If it does, select one enemy unit (excluding Monsters and Vehicles). Until the end of the phase, attacks made by models in this unit can only attack that enemy unit (and only if it is an eligible target) and, after resolving those attacks, if one or more of those attacks hit that enemy unit, until the start of your next Shooting phase, that enemy unit is assailed (this simply labels that unit for the purposes of this ability and some Enhancements or Stratagems). If that unit is already assailed, until the start of your next Shooting phase, it is also pinned. While a unit is pinned, subtract 2" from its Move characteristic and subtract 2 from Charge rolls made for it.
