Warbikes

Bikes are large, solid constructions, and are often fitted with protective armour and shields to deflect and absorb incoming fire. Bike riders benefit from the protection offered by their bike, which increases their Toughness characteristic by 1. Note that this increase does not affect the model’s Toughness for the purposes of instant death.


Bikes can move up to 12" in the Movement phase. Bikes are not slowed down by difficult terrain. However, they treat all difficult terrain as dangerous terrain instead. 


Bikes also have the ‘Turbo-Boosters’ special rule.


As bikes are so fast moving, they fall back 3D6", rather than 2D6". Remember that they treat all difficult terrain as dangerous.


Bikes cannot run in the Shooting phase.
Bikes have the ‘relentless’ special rule


Each bike in a unit may fire with one weapon for each rider on the bike. Thus a Space Marine Attack Bike with a driver and passenger in sidecar can fire two weapons.


Bike assault moves are not slowed down by difficult terrain. However, each model entering or moving through difficult terrain, or assaulting an enemy who is standing in difficult terrain or behind an obstacle, must take a dangerous terrain test.
