And They Shall Know No Fear
Space Marines automatically pass tests to regroup, and can take such tests even if the squad has been reduced to less than half strength by casualties, though all other criteria apply. Usually troops that regroup cannot move normally and always count as moving whether they do or not, but these restrictions do not apply to models subject to this special rule. If Space Marines are caught by a sweeping advance, they are not destroyed and will instead continue to fight normally. If this happens then the unit is subject to the No Retreat! rule in this round of close combat and might therefore suffer additional casualties.


Units which include Servitors are still subject to this rule, providing that the unit contains at least one Space Marine.
Combat Tactics
A non-fearless Space Marine unit with this special rule can choose to automatically fail any Morale check it is called upon to take

Profiles:

Abilities
Titanic Might:

Calgar can re-roll all failed attempts to wound with shooting and close combat attacks.

God of War:

Calgar can choose whether to pass or fail any Morale check he is called upon to make. Whilst Calgar is on the table, all units with the Combat Tactics special rule can also choose whether to pass or fail any Morale check they are called upon to take.

Independent Character:

Independent characters follow the Movement rules for models of their type, be it infantry, jump infantry, bike, etc. In addition, independent characters can move through difficult terrain more quickly and safely than ordinary troops. All independent characters have the ‘move through cover’ and ‘skilled rider’ special rules. This advantage does not extend to any vehicles they may be travelling in.

Independent characters are allowed to join other units. They cannot, however, join vehicle squadrons (see the Vehicles section) and units that always consist of a single model (like most vehicles and monstrous creatures). They can join other independent characters though, to form a powerful multi-character unit!

Eternal Warrior:

The model is immune to the effects of the Instant Death rule.

Ordnance 1, Barrage (This ability can be used once per game in the unit's shooting phase, provided they did not move in the preceding Movement phase (though they may later assault if the controlling player wishes). Calling down an orbital bombardment otherwise counts as firing a ranged weapon. Note that if an arrow is rolled on the scatter dice and orbital bombardment will always scatter the full 2D6", the model's Ballistic Skill makes no difference)

Wargear
Iron Halo:

An Iron Halo confers a 4+ invulnerable save.

Melee Weapons
Power Weapon:

Models wounded in close combat by the attacks of a model armed with a power weapon are not allowed armour saves.
