(FW) Shadow Captain Korvydae

Korvydae and an Jump Pack equipped squad he is leading gain the Hit and Run special rule.

Korvydae usually leads a fast moving raiding force. If your army is led by Korvydae then it must include at least one Space Marine Scout squad. It may also take any Assault squads as a Troops choice instead of a Fast Attack choice.

When choosing an army, all models in the same Detachment or Formation must be drawn from the same Chapter.  If a unit's datasheet contains a Chapter in brackets after the Chapter Tactics special rule - for example, "Chapter Tactics (Ultramarines)" - the unit must always be drawn from this Chapter, and therefore cannot be included in a Detachment or Formation with any units that are drawn from other Chapters. All models drawn from a given Chapter benefit from that Chapter's Special Rule. If a unit contains models drawn from two different Chapters, it counts as from neither Chapter, and thus benefits from neither Chapter Tactic.

A unit that contains at least one model with this special rule automatically passes Fear and Regroup tests. When it Regroups, the unit does not make the 3" Regroup move, but can instead move, shoot (or Run) and declare charges normally in that turn. Furthermore, if a unit containing one or more models with this special rule is caught by a Sweeping Advance, they are not destroyed, but remain locked in combat instead.

Independent characters can join other units.  They cannot, however, join units that contain vehicles or Monstrous Creatures.  They can join other Independent Characters, though, to form a powerful multi-character unit!  Independent Characters pass Look Out, Sir rolls on a 2+. A unit that contains one or more Independent Characters does not need a double 1 to Regroup if reduced to below 25% of its starting numbres, but instead tests as if it had at least 25% remaining.

Full details in BRB. Rule too long to copy verbatim.

A unit that contains at least one model with this special rule that is locked in combat can choose to leave close combat at the end of any Assault phase. If the unit wishes to do so, it must take an Initiative test.

If the test is failed, nothing happens and the models remain locked in the fight.

If the test is passed, choose a direction - then roll 3D6. As long as the distance rolled, in inches, is sufficient to allow the entire unit to move over 1" away from all of the enemy units they are locked in combat with, the unit breaks away from combat and must immediately move a number of inches in the chosen direction equal to the 3D6 result, ignoring the models they were locked in combat with. No Sweeping Advance rolls are made. Enemy units that are no longer locked in combat immediately Consolidate D6".

A Hit & Run move is not slowed by difficult terrain, but takes Dangerous Terrain tests as normal. It may not be used to move into base or hull contact with enemy units, and models instead stop 1" away. If there are units with this rule on both sides who wish to disengage, roll-off to determine who goes first and then alternate disengaging them. If the last of these ends up no longer in combat, it Consolidates instead.
