Rules (5) Manta Strike During deployment, if every model in this unit has this ability, you can set up this unit in a Manta hold instead of setting it up
on the battlefield. If you do, then in the Reinforcements step of one of your Movement phases you can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" away from any enemy models. Valued Sacrifice Each time a DRONE model in this unit is destroyed, it is ignored for the purposes of Morale tests if this unit contains models without the DRONE keyword. Artificial Helpers DRONE models are ignored for the purposes of:
- The Look Out, Sir rule.
- Determining this unit's Starting Strength, and whether this unit is below Half strength.
- Determining this unit's toughness characteristic, if it also contains models without the DRONE keyword. Limited Parameters If this unit contains only DRONE models, this unit cannot perform actions (excluding the Fire Markerlights action, page 93) and loses the Objective Secured ability if it has it, and cannot gain it through any means. Docked Drones If this model is docked with another:
- Any weapons this model is equipped with are considered to be equipped to the model it is docked with instead.
- Attacks cannot be allocated to this model and it does not count as a model on the battlefield for any rules purposes.
- If the model it is docked with is destroyed, this DRONE model is destroyed as well.
