Rules (3)
Forward Operatives
Units of Chosen are Troops choices instead of Elites choices. In addition, all units of Chosen, Chaos Space Marines, and Chaos Cultists have the Infiltrate special rule.
Many Heads of the Hydra
If your Warlord is from an Alpha Legion Detachment or Formation and they are slain, you can immediately select another character from a friendly Alpha Legion Detachment or Formation to take their place; generate a Warlord Trait for your new Warlord immediately. This can happen multiple times in the same battle, provided you follow these steps each time. Furthermore, if your Warlord is from an Alpha Legion Detachment or Formation and the mission you are playing grants Victory Points for slaying the enemy Warlord, your opponent will only achieve that objective if all of the characters in your Alpha Legion Detachment(s) and/or Formation(s) have been slain.
Infiltrate
Units that contain at least one model with this special rule are deployed last, after all other units (friend and foe) have been deployed. If both sides have Infiltrators, the players roll-off and the winner decides who goes first, then alternate deploying these units.

Infiltrators can be set up anywhere on the table that is more than 12" from any enemy unit, as long as no deployed enemy unit can draw line of sight to them. This includes in a building, as long as the building is more than 12" from any enemy unit. Alternatively, they can be set up anywhere on the table more than 18" from any enemy unit, even in plain sight.

If a unit with Infiltrate deploys inside a Dedicated Transport, they may Infiltrate along with their Transport. 

A unit that deploys using these rules cannot charge in their first turn. Having Infiltrate also confers the Outflank special rule to units of Infiltrators that are kept as Reserves.

If a unit has both the Infiltrate and Scout special rule, that unit can deploy as per the Infiltrate special rule and then redeploy as per the Scout special rule.
