Abilities
Mixed Unit: A unit of Intercessors can contain models with different Toughness characteristics. If this is the case, use the Toughness characteristic of the majority of the models in the unit when the enemy makes wound rolls against it. If there is no majority, the Deathwatch player may choose which of the values is used. For the purposes of determining what models a vehicle can transport, Aggressors and Inceptors have the MARK X GRAVIS keyword and Inceptors have the JUMP PACK keyword.
Combat Squads: Before deployment at the start of the game, a unit with this ability containing 10 models may be split into two units, each containing 5 models. Units of Agressors, Bikers or Inceptors containing 6 models can also be split into two units, each containing 3 models.
