For the Greater Good
When an enemy unit declares a charge, a unit with this ability that is within 6" of one of the charging unit's targets may fire Overwatch as if they were also targeted. A unit that does so cannot fire Overwatch again in this turn.
Drone Support
When a unit is set up on the battlefield, any accompanying DRONE models are set up in unit coherency with it. From that point onwards, the DRONE models are treated as a separate unit.
