Stratagems

AGGRESSIVE IMPULSE

Cost: 1CP Type: Strategic Ploy Stratagem Detachment: Haloscreed Battle Clade

Urgent imperatives flood into the crew thralls of Skitarius transport units, urging them to deploy their cargo of cybernetic soldiers into the heart of the fight. WHEN: Your Movement phase . TARGET: One SKORPIUS DUNERIDER model from your army that has not been selected to move this phase. EFFECT: Until the end of the turn, each time an ADEPTUS MECHANICUS unit disembarks from that model after it has made a Normal move , that unit is still eligible to declare a charge this turn.

ERADICATION PROTOCOLS

Cost: 1CP Type: Battle Tactic Stratagem Detachment: Haloscreed Battle Clade

Fresh imperatives flow down from on high. The orders are simple: eliminate the foe. WHEN: Your Shooting phase or the Fight phase . TARGET: One ADEPTUS MECHANICUS unit from your army that has not been selected to shoot or fight this phase. EFFECT: Until the end of the phase, each time a model in your unit makes an attack, re-roll a Wound roll of 1, and, if it is a HALO OVERRIDE unit, re-roll a Hit roll of 1.

GUIDED RETREAT

Cost: 1CP Type: Strategic Ploy Stratagem Detachment: Haloscreed Battle Clade

From their distant strategium pulpit, the Tech-Priest commander’s guiding hand descends, seizing control of allied minds, steering their troops carefully away from harm whilst maintaining a hail of killing fire. WHEN: Your Movement phase , just after an ADEPTUS MECHANICUS unit from your army makes a Fall Back move . TARGET: That ADEPTUS MECHANICUS unit. EFFECT: Until the end of the turn, your unit is eligible to shoot and declare a charge in a turn in which it Fell Back, and, if it is a Halo Override unit, you can re-roll Desperate Escape tests taken for it.

NEURAL OVERLOAD

Cost: 1CP Type: Strategic Ploy Stratagem Detachment: Haloscreed Battle Clade

By projecting their consciousness into the minds of tech thralls, a Tech-Priest may significantly enhance their warriors’ lethality. However, doing so risks overloading their combat units’ more limited neural networks. Such hazards are seen as an opportunity to give one’s life in the name of the Omnissiah. WHEN: Your Movement phase . TARGET: One ADEPTUS MECHANICUS unit from your army. EFFECT: If your unit is a HALO OVERRIDE unit, it suffers D3 mortal wounds . Select one Override ability . Until the start of your next Command phase , that ability is active for your unit. Designer’s Note: This means that if the targeted unit already has the HALO OVERRIDE keyword, it can be affected by multiple Override abilities at the same time, but suffers mortal wounds to do so. Alternatively, if your unit does not have the HALO OVERRIDE keyword, it instead has the chosen Override ability until the start of your next Command phase, but does not benefit from any other Override abilities that are active.

TARGETING OVERRIDE

Cost: 1CP Type: Battle Tactic Stratagem Detachment: Haloscreed Battle Clade

Experienced Tech-Priests rapidly analyse the foe’s weaknesses and feed the resultant data to their soldiers, who exploit these flaws to destroy their targets. WHEN: Your Shooting phase or the Fight phase . TARGET: One ADEPTUS MECHANICUS unit from your army that has not been selected to shoot or fight this phase. EFFECT: Until the end of the phase, each time a model in your unit makes an attack, an unmodified Hit roll of 5+ scores a Critical Hit .
