If your Army Faction is **^^Astra Militarum^^**, **^^Officer^^** models with this ability can issue Orders. Each **^^Officer^^**'s datasheet will specify how many Orders it can issue and which units are eligible to receive those Orders. Each time an **^^Officer^^** model issues an Order, select one of the Orders below, then select one eligible friendly unit within 6" of that **^^Officer^^** model to issue it to. **^^Officer^^** models can issue Orders in your Command phase and at the end of a phase in which they disembarked from a **^^Transport^^** or were set up on the battlefield.

Until the start of your next Command phase, the unit you selected is affected by that Order. Unless otherwise stated, a unit can only be affected by one Order at a time (any Order subsequently issued to that unit replaces the current one). Orders cannot be issued to Battle-shocked units, and if a unit being affected by an Order becomes Battle-shocked, that Order ceases to affect that unit.


Only **^^Astra Militarum^^** models gain the benefit of an Order issued to their unit.

Leader

Before the battle, in the Muster Armies step, for each leader and support unit in your army, you can select one friendly bodyguard unit that unit can lead. That unit will then lead that bodyguard unit for the battle and form an attached unit with it. Unless otherwise stated, each bodyguard unit can only have one leader unit and one support unit attached to it.

Abilities
Summary Execution: Once per battle round, at the start of any phase, you can select one friendly ASTRA MILITARUM INFANTRY or ASTRA MILITARUM MOUNTED unit that is Battle-shocked and within 12" of this model. If you do, one model in that unit is destroyed, and that unit is then no longer Battle-shocked.
Political Overwatch: While another Officer model is in the same unit as this model, you can re-roll Battle-shock tests taken for that unit.
Leader: This model can be attached to the following unit: Death Riders You can attach this model to the above unit even if one Death Rider Squadron Commander, Lord Marshal Dreir or Lord Solar Leontus model has already been attached to it. If you do, and that Bodyguard unit is destroyed, the Leader units attached to it become separate units, with their original Starting Strengths.
