Regimental Tactics

If every model from your army (excluding AGENT OF THE IMPERIUM and UNALIGNED models) has the ASTRA MILITARUM keyword:

  • Each time an OFFICER from your army issues a Regimental or Prefectus Order to a unit with this ability, you can select one or more friendly PLATOON units within 6" of that unit; those PLATOON units are also affected by that Order.
  • Each time an OFFICER from your army issues a Mechanised Order (see right) to a unit with this ability, you can select one or more other friendly SQUADRON units within 6 of that unit; those SQUADRON units are also affected by that Order
Summary Execution

Once per turn, when a friendly ASTRA MILITARUM CORE unit within 6" of this model fails a Morale test, this model can use this ability. If it does so, until the end of the phase, each time a Combat Attrition test is taken for that unit, it is automatically passed.

Voice of Command

In your Command phase, ASTRA MILITARUM OFFICERS from your army can issue Orders. There are three types of Orders

  • Regimental Orders, Prefectus Orders and Mechanised Orders. The Commanding Authority section of each OFFICER's datasheet will specify which types of Orders that OFFICER knows, and how many Orders it can issue per turn

Each time an OFFICER issues an Order, you must select one of the Orders it knows. This can be an Order that was already issued by another friendly OFFICER this turn, but the same OFFICER cannot attempt to issue the same Order more than once in the same battle round.

You must then select a target unit for that Order to be issued to. If issuing a Regimental or Prefectus Order, select one friendly PLATOON unit within 6 of that OFFICER'S unit. If issuing a Mechanised Order, select one friendly SQUADRON unit within 12 of that OFFICER'S unit

The unit you selected is then affected by that Order. A unit can only be affected by one Order at a time. If a unit is being affected by an Order when it is selected to be affected by another Order, the new Order immediately replaces the old one.
