Abilities
This unit can be attached to the following unit: - Tempestus Scions
While this unit contains a Tempestor Prime, ranged weapons equipped by models in this unit have the [SUSTAINED HITS 1] ability.
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.
If your Army Faction is Astra Militarum, Officer models with this ability can issue Orders. Each Officer's datasheet will specify how many Orders it can issue and which units are eligible to receive those Orders. Each time an Officer model issues an Order, select one of the Orders below, then select one eligible friendly unit within 6" of that Officer model to issue it to. Officer models can issue Orders in your Command phase and at the end of a phase in which they disembarked from a Transport or were set up on the battlefield.
Until the start of your next Command phase, the unit you selected is affected by that Order. Unless otherwise stated, a unit can only be affected by one Order at a time (any Order subsequently issued to that unit replaces the current one). Orders cannot be issued to Battle-shocked units, and if a unit being affected by an Order becomes Battle-shocked, that Order ceases to affect that unit.
Only Astra Militarum models gain the benefit of an Order issued to their unit.
MOVE! MOVE! MOVE! Add 3" to the Move characteristic of models in this unit.
FIX BAYONETS! Improve the Weapon Skill characteristic of melee weapons equipped by models in this unit by 1.
TAKE AIM! Improve the Ballistic Skill characteristic of ranged weapons equipped by models in this unit by 1.
FIRST RANK, FIRE! SECOND RANK, FIRE! Improve the Attacks characteristic of Rapid Fire weapons equipped by models in this unit by 1.
TAKE COVER! Improve the Save characteristic of models in this unit by 1 (this cannot improve a model’s Save to better than 3+).
DUTY AND HONOUR! Improve the Leadership and Objective Control characteristics of models in this unit by 1.
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).
At the start of your Command phase, if the bearer's unit is below its Starting Strength, you can return up to D3 destroyed Tempestus Scions models to this unit.
While the bearer is leading a unit, that unit can be affected by up to two different Orders at the same time.
