Airborne

Hard to Hit

Your opponent must subtract 1 from hit rolls for attacks that target this model in the Shooting phase.

Supersonic

Each time this model makes a Normal Move, Advances or Falls Back, first pivot it on the spot up to 90 (this does not contribute to how far the model moves) then move the model straight forwards. It cannot pivot again after the initial pivot

Angels of Death

This unit has the following abilities: And They Shall Know No Fear, Bolter Discipline, Shock Assault and Combat Doctrines.

Explodes (6"/D6)

When this model is destroyed, roll one D6 before removing it from play. On a 6 it explodes and each unit within 6" suffers D6 mortal wounds.

Shock Assault

Each time this unit fights if it made a charge move, was charged or performed a Heroic Intervention this turn, then until that fight is resolved, add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of models in this unit.

Bolter Discipline

Instead of following the normal rules for Rapid Fire weapons, models in this unit shooting Rapid Fire bolt weapons make double the number of attacks if any of the following apply

- The shooting model's target is within half the weapon's range
- The shooting model is Infantry (excluding Centurion models) and it's unit Remained Stationary in your previous Movement Phase.
- The shooting model is a Terminator or Biker

For the purposes of this ability, a Rapid Fire bolt weapon is any bolt weapon (see page 195) with the Rapid Fire type.
