Einhyr Hearthguard

Each time a model in this unit makes a ranged attack that targets the closest eligible target, re-roll a Hit roll of 1.

If your Army Faction is Leagues of Votann, Leagues of Votann units from your army have one of two abilities: Hostile Acquisition or Fortify Takeover (see below). During the battle, which ability those Leagues of Votann units have will change depending on how many Yield points (YP) you currently have: - At the start of the battle, your units have Hostile Acquisition until the start of your next Command phase.

• At the end of your Command phase, if you have fewer than 7YP, your units have Hostile Acquisition until the start of your next Command phase.

• At the end of your Command phase, if you have 7YP or more, your units have Fortify Takeover until the start of your next Command phase.

Hostile Acquisition - Each time a model in this unit makes an attack that targets an enemy unit within range of one or more objective markers, add 1 to the Hit roll.

• You can re‑roll Advance and Charge rolls made for this unit.

Fortify Takeover - Each time a model in this unit makes an attack that targets an enemy unit, if this unit is within range of one or more objective markers you control, add 1 to the Hit roll.

• Each time an attack targets this unit, if the Strength characteristic of that attack is greater than this unit’s Toughness characteristic and this unit is not a Vehicle, subtract 1 from the Wound roll.

Yield Points At the end of each player’s Command phase, you gain 1YP if you control one or more objective markers within your deployment zone, and, from the second battle round onwards, you gain 1 additional YP for each of the following conditions you satisfy: You control one or more objective markers not within your deployment zone. You control two or more objective markers not within your deployment zone. You control more objective markers than your opponent.

In your turn, YP gained in this way are always gained before checking which ability Leagues of Votann units from your army have.

Whenever a rule allows you to spend YP, reduce the number of YP you have by that amount (your YP cannot go below 0), otherwise you cannot use that rule.

In your Shooting phase, just after this unit is selected to shoot, this unit can use this ability. If it does, select one enemy unit (excluding Monsters and Vehicles). Until the end of the phase, attacks made by models in this unit can only attack that enemy unit (and only if it is an eligible target) and, after resolving those attacks, if one or more of those attacks hit that enemy unit, until the start of your next Shooting phase, that enemy unit is assailed (this simply labels that unit for the purposes of this ability and some Enhancements or Stratagems). If that unit is already assailed, until the start of your next Shooting phase, it is also pinned. While a unit is pinned, subtract 2" from its Move characteristic and subtract 2 from Charge rolls made for it.

Each time you gather attack dice for a [BLAST] weapon, add one additional attack dice for every five models that were in the target unit in the Select Targets step (rounding down). If this ability takes the form [BLAST X], each time you gather attack dice for such a weapon, add X additional attack dice for every five models that were in the target unit in the Select Targets step (rounding down) instead.  Example:* If a [BLAST 2] weapon with an A characteristic of 3 targets a unit containing 12 models, you would gather four additional attack dice* for that weapon (for a total of seven for that weapon).

This ability always takes the form [RAPID FIRE X]. Each time you gather attack dice for a [RAPID FIRE] weapon, add X additional attack dice if the target unit was within half range of that weapon in the Select Targets step.  Example:* If a [RAPID FIRE 1] weapon with an A characteristic of 1 targets a unit that is within half range, you would gather one additional attack dice* for that weapon (for a total of two for that weapon).

Each time an attack made with a [DEVASTATING WOUNDS] weapon results in a critical wound, the attack sequence for that attack ends and the target unit suffers a number of mortal wounds equal to the D characteristic of that weapon. These are inflicted after resolving any normal damage inflicted by those attacks.  Mortal wounds inflicted by [DEVASTATING WOUNDS] weapons can damage a maximum of one model for each critical wound; any remaining mortal wounds inflicted by that attack are lost.  Example: An attack made with a [DEVASTATING WOUNDS] weapon with a D characteristic of 3 results in a critical wound against an Intercessor Squad, so inflicts 3 mortal wounds. The first 2 mortal wounds are sufficient to destroy 1 Intercessor model, so the remaining mortal wound* is lost.

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+.

Models in the bearer's unit have the Deep Strike 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.
