Rules (4)
Aerobatic Grace
A model with this special rule has a 4+ cover save unless it remained stationary in its previous Movement phase.
Strength from Death
Whenever a unit is completely destroyed within 7" of one or more non-vehicle units that consist only of models with this special rule, pick one of those units to make a Soulburst action.  You cannot pick a unit that is locked in combat, Falling Back, or that has Gone to Ground.  A unit making a Soulburst action can do one of the following, even if it has already done so in this turn:

* The unit can immediately move as if it were your Movement phase.
* The unit can immediately shoot (or Run or Turbo-boost) as if it were your Shooting Phase.
* The unit can immediately make a charge move as if it were your Charge sub-phase (if they do so, enemy units can fire Overwatch as if it were your Charge sub-phase). A unit that makes a charge in the Fight sub-phase does so at the end of the current Initiative step, and once they have charged, the Initiative steps continue to resolve as before (including for models in the charging unit).

A unit can only make a Soulburst action once per turn.
Outflank
During deployment, players can declare that any unit that contains at least one model with this special rule is attempting to Outflank the enemy. This means they are making a wide sweeping move to get behind enemy lines or come at the foe from an unexpected direction.

When an Outflanking unit arrives from Reserves, but not Ongoing Reserve, the controlling player rolls a D6: on a 1-2, the unit comes in from the table edge to the left of their controlling player's own table edge; on a 3-4, they come on from the right; on a 5-6, the player can choose left or right. Models move onto the table as described for other Reserves. If such a unit deploys inside a Dedicated Transport, they may Outflank along with their Transport.
Skilled Rider
A unit that contains at least one model with this special rule automatically passes Dangerous Terrain tests, and receives +1 to its Jink cover saves (other cover saves are unaffected).
