Venom

At the end of the Fight phase, if there are no models currently embarked within this TRANSPORT, you can select one friendly DRUKHARI INFANTRY unit that has 6 or fewer models that is wholly within 6" of this TRANSPORT (you cannot select a unit that can FLY). Unless that unit is within Engagement Range of one or more enemy units, it can embark within this TRANSPORT. That unit can embark within this TRANSPORT in a turn it disembarked from this TRANSPORT.

In your Movement phase, when you select this model to Advance, you can spend 1 Pain token to Empower this model. While Empowered, units can disembark from this model after it has Advanced. Units that do so count as having made a Normal move that phase, and cannot declare a charge in the same turn, but can otherwise act normally in the remainder of the turn.

This ability always takes the form Deadly Demise X. Each time a model in this unit is destroyed, after the units embarked within it (if any) have made their emergency disembark moves, roll one D6. On a 6, that model suffers a deadly demise; each unit within 6" of that model suffers a number of mortal wounds denoted by X (if this is a random number, roll separately for each unit within 6").  Example:* An Impulsor with a unit of Intercessors embarked within it is destroyed by ranged attacks. First, any unresolved attacks made by the attacking unit are resolved. Then the Intercessors make an emergency disembark move. Then the roll is made for the Deadly Demise* ability, and on a 6, that ability is resolved. Finally, the Impulsor is removed from the battlefield.

This ability always takes the form Firing Deck X. In your Shooting phase, each time this TRANSPORT is selected to shoot, if one or more units are embarked within it, resolve the following sequence:  1. Select up to X models embarked within this TRANSPORT (excluding models whose units have already been selected to shoot this phase).  2. For each selected model, select one of its ranged weapons (excluding [ONE SHOT] weapons).  3. Until this TRANSPORT has resolved all of its attacks, it has all of those selected weapons in addition to its other weapons.  4. Until the end of the turn, units embarked within this TRANSPORT are not eligible to shoot. 

If every model in a unit has this ability, each time a ranged attack targets that unit, that unit has the benefit of cover against that attack (13.08).

Each time this unit makes an ingress move (20.04), if every model in this unit has this ability, it can be set up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 8" horizontally from all enemy units, even if that is within your opponent’s deployment zone.

All Drukhari units have a Pain ability, tagged with the word 'Pain'. Pain abilities only apply to a unit while it is Empowered. If your Army Faction is Drukhari, you can Empower units from your army with Pain abilities by spending Pain tokens (see below).

GAINING PAIN TOKENS

If your Army Faction is Drukhari, you gain Pain tokens as follows: ■ 1 Pain token at the start of your Command phase. ■ 1 Pain token each time an enemy unit is destroyed. ■ 1 Pain token each time an enemy unit fails a Battle-shock test.

Each time you gain a Pain token, keep it to one side – this is your Pain token pool. Each time you spend a Pain token, reduce your Pain token pool by the same amount.

EMPOWERED THROUGH PAIN

Each Pain ability will state when you can spend Pain tokens to Empower that unit. When you do, until the end of the phase, that unit is Empowered and all Pain abilities it has take effect. While an Attached unit is Empowered, the Pain abilities of all Leader and Bodyguard units in that unit take effect - you do not need to spend additional Pain tokens to activate each of those Pain abilities.

This ability always takes the form [ANTI-X Y+]. Each time an attack is made with an [ANTI] weapon, if the target unit has the keyword denoted by X, an unmodified wound roll of Y+ is a critical wound. Example:* An attack made with an [ANTI-VEHICLE 4+] weapon against a Vehicle unit will result in a critical wound on an unmodified wound roll of 4+, while an attack made with an [ANTI-PSYKER 2+] weapon against a Psyker unit will result in a critical wound on an unmodified wound roll* of 2+.

This ability always takes the form [SUSTAINED HITS X]. Each time an attack made with a [SUSTAINED HITS] weapon results in a critical hit, that attack results in a number of additional hits on the target as denoted by X. Example: An attack made with a *[SUSTAINED HITS 2] weapon results in a critical hit. That attack therefore hits the target three times (once from the critical hit, and twice more from the [SUSTAINED HITS 2] ability).

Units containing one or more models with an [ASSAULT] weapon can shoot using assault shooting (10.05).

Each time an attack is made with a [TWIN-LINKED] weapon, you can re-roll the wound roll.
