Chaos Cerastus Knight Acheron

In your Shooting phase, after this model has shot, select one enemy unit hit by one or more of those attacks made with an Acheron flame cannon. Until the end of the phase, that enemy unit cannot have the Benefit of Cover.

While a friendly War Dog model is within 6" of this model, it is affected by this ability. At the start of the Fight phase, each enemy unit within Engagement Range of one or more War Dog units affected by this ability must take a Battle-shock test.

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.

While this model has 1-10 wounds remaining, subtract 5 from this model’s Objective Control characteristic and each time this model makes an attack, subtract 1 from the Hit roll.

If your Army Faction is Chaos Knights, each model from your army with this ability gains Dread abilities, depending which are active for your army. The Deathly Terror ability is active for your army from the start of the battle. In addition, at the start of the first, third and fifth battle rounds, you can either select one of the other Dread abilities or randomly select two Dread abilities to apply by rolling two D6 and applying the results rolled, from those numbered 1-6 below.

Any Dread abilities that have been selected are active until the end of the battle. You cannot select the same Dread ability more than once, and any duplicated Dread abilities (as a result of randomly selecting them) have no additional effect.

N/A - Deathly Terror (Aura) While an enemy unit is within 9" of this model, worsen the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit by 1.

1 - Despair (Aura) While an enemy unit is within 9" of this model, worsen the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit by 1. This is cumulative with the Deathly Terror ability (see above).

2 - Doom Each time this model makes an attack, if the target is Battle-shocked, add 1 to the Wound roll.

3 - Darkness This model has Stealth.

4 - Dismay (Aura) In the Battle-shock step of your opponent's Command phase, for each enemy unit that is below its Starting Strength and within 9" of this model, that enemy unit must take a Battle-shock test.

5 - Delirium (Aura) While an enemy unit that is Below Half-strength is within 9" of this model, each time that model fails a Battle-shock test, it suffers D3 mortal wounds.

6 - Dominion Add 3" to the range of this model's Aura abilities.

Each time a unit with this ability makes a normal, advance or fall-back move:  - Models in that unit can move through models (including MONSTER/VEHICLE models, but excluding TITANIC models) and can move horizontally through sections of terrain features that are 4" or less in height.  - Before moving that unit, you can select for all models in that unit to have the MOBILE keyword until that move ends. If you do, when that move ends, roll one D6: on a 1, that unit is battle-shocked.  Designer’s Note:* Gaining the MOBILE keyword for the duration of a move will enable models in that unit to move horizontally through dense terrain features* (13.06).

While a friendly Damned unit is within 9" of this unit, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, re‑roll a Hit roll of 1 and re‑roll a Wound roll of 1.

Each time a Chaos Knights unit with this ability is selected to shoot or fight, it can make a Dark Sacrifice. If it does, select one friendly Damned unit within 6". That Damned unit must take a Leadership test: if passed, destroy D3 models in that Damned unit; if failed, destroy D3+3 models in that Damned unit. In either case, then select one of the following abilities for your Chaos Knights unit’s weapons to have until the end of the phase: [LETHAL HITS]; [SUSTAINED HITS 1].

This model has a 5+ invulnerable save against ranged attacks.

Each time an attack is made with an [IGNORES COVER] weapon, the target cannot have the benefit of cover against that attack (13.08), including from rules that give a model or unit the benefit of cover (e.g. Stealth).

Each time an attack is made with a [TORRENT] weapon, that attack automatically hits the target.

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).

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