Eye of the Ancestors
If your Army Faction is LEAGUES OF VOTANN, each time an enemy unit destroys a LEAGUES OF VOTANN unit from your army, that enemy unit gains 1 Judgement token. An enemy unit can never have more than 2 Judgement tokens (any further Judgement tokens a unit would gain beyond this are ignored).
Each time a model from your army with this ability makes an attack that targets a unit that has one or more Judgement tokens, until that model’s attacks have been resolved, apply the relevant bonus from the table below to that attack.

JUDGEMENT TOKENS BONUS
1. Eminent Threat: Add 1 to the Hit roll.
2. Now We’ve Got a Grudge to Settle: Add 1 to the Hit roll and add 1 to the Wound roll.


In addition, at the start of the battle, select two units from your opponent’s army; each of those units start the battle with 2 Judgement tokens.

Designer’s Note: If a unit with Judgement tokens is removed from the battlefield, make a note of how many Judgement tokens it had when it was removed. If that unit is set up on the battlefield again, place the corresponding number of Judgement tokens next to it. If a unit with Judgement tokens splits up into two or more smaller units, each of those units gains a number of Judgement tokens equal to that of the original unit. If two units combine to form a single larger unit and either of those units had Judgement tokens, make a note of how many the unit with the most has, just before they combine – the new unit has a number of Judgement tokens equal to this.
Ruthless Efficiency
At the start of the battle, select a additional number of units from your opponent’s army depending on the battle size, as shown below: 
■ Incursion: 1 units 
■ Strike Force: 2 units 
■ Onslaught: 4 units.
Each of those units starts the battle with 2 Judgement tokens (see Eye of the Ancestors).

If, at the start of any of your Command phases, any of those enemy units have been destroyed, you gain a number of CP depending on how early in the battle you destroyed it, as shown below (you can only gain CP in this way once per battle, and CP gained in this way are an exemption to the Core Rules that limit the maximum number of CP you can gain per battle round to 1).

Unit destroyed by the start of your first or second Command phase: You gain 3CP
Unit destroyed by the start of your third or fourth Command phase: You gain 2CP
Unit destroyed by the start of your fifth Command phase: You gain 1CP
Scouts
Some units have ‘Scouts x"’ listed in their abilities. If every model in a unit has this ability, then at the start of the first battle round, before the first turn begins, it can make a Normal move of up to x", with the exception that, while making that move, the distance moved by each model in that unit can be greater than that model's Move characteristic, as long as it is not greater than x". 

DEDICATED TRANSPORT models can make use of any Scouts x" ability listed in their abilities, or a Scouts x" ability that a unit that starts the battle embarked within that DEDICATED TRANSPORT  model has (provided only models with this ability are embarked within that Dedicated Transport model), regardless of how that embarked unit gained this ability (e.g. listed in their abilities, conferred by an Enhancement or by an attached Character, etc.). 

A unit that moves using this ability must end that move more than 9" horizontally away from all enemy models. If both players have units that can do this, the player who is taking the first turn moves their units first.
