Once per game, a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative can perform the following action: Narthecium (1 AP): Select one other friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative visible to and within 1" of this operative. That operative regains 2D3 lost Wounds. This operative cannot perform this action while within Engagement Range of an enemy operative.

Once per turning point, when a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative is shooting, fighting or retaliating, if you roll two or more fails, you can discard one of them to retain another as a normal success instead.

Once per game, a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative can perform the following action: Plant Teleport Homer (1 AP): Place a Teleport Homer token within 1" of this operative. This operative cannot perform this action if it is within Engagement Range of an enemy operative. A friendly operative deploying via Teleport Strike can deploy directly onto the Teleport Homer token, even if it is within Engagement Range of an enemy operative.

Once per turning point, when a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative performs the Shoot action and you’re selecting a valid target, you can use this rule. If you do, until the end of the activation (or counteraction), enemy operatives within 8" of it cannot be obscured.

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Ammo Cache markers wholly within your territory. Friendly operatives can perform the following mission action during the battle: AMMO RESUPPLY (0 AP): One of your Ammo Cache markers the active operative controls is used during this turning point.

Until the start of the next turning point, whenever this operative is shooting with a weapon from its datacard, you can re-roll one of your attack dice.

An operative cannot perform this action while within control range of an enemy operative, if that marker is not yours, or if that marker has been used this turning point.

Razor wire is Exposed and Obstructing terrain. Before the battle, you can set it up wholly within your territory, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points, and Accessible terrain.

Obstructing: Whenever an operative would cross over this terrain feature within 1" of it, treat the distance as an additional 1".

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Comms Device markers wholly within your territory. While a friendly operative controls this marker, add 3" to the distance requirements of its SUPPORT rules that refer to friendly operatives (e.g. ‘select one friendly operative within 6"’ would be 9" instead). Note that you cannot benefit from your opponent's Comms Device markers.

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Mines markers wholly within your territory and more than 2" from other markers, access points, and Accessible terrain. The first time that marker is within an operative's control range, remove that marker and inflict D3+3 damage on that operative.

Light barricades are Light terrain, except the feet, which are Insignificant and Exposed. Before the battle, you can set up any of them wholly within your territory, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points, and Accessible terrain.

A heavy barricade is Heavy terrain. Before the battle, you can set it up wholly within 4" of your drop zone, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points, and Accessible terrain.

Ladders are Insignificant and Exposed terrain. Before the battle, you can set up any of them as follows:

• Wholly within your territory.
• Upright against terrain that’s at least 2" tall.
• More than 2" from other equipment terrain features.
• More than 1" from doors and access points.

Once per action, whenever an operative is climbing the terrain feature a ladder is placed against, treat the vertical distance as 1" if the ladder is within that operative’s control range during that entire climb.

A portable barricade is Light, Protective and Portable terrain, except the feet which are Insignificant and Exposed. Before the battle, you can set it up wholly within your territory, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points, and Accessible terrain.

Protective: While an operative is in cover from this terrain feature, improve its Save stat by 1 (to a maximum of 2+).

Portable: This terrain feature only provides cover while an operative is connected to it and if the shield is intervening (ignore its feet). Operatives connected to the inside of it can perform the following unique action during the battle:

Move With Barricade (1 AP): The same as the Reposition action, except the active operative can move no more than its Move stat minus 2" and cannot climb, drop, jump, or use any killteam's rules that remove it and set it back up again (e.gh. HEARTHKYN SALVAGER Fly, MANDRAKE Shadow Passage).

Before this operative moves, remove the portable barricade it is connected to. After it moves, set up the portable barricade so it is connected again, but the portable barricade cannot be set up within 2" of other equipment terrain features, access points or Accessible terrain. If this is not possible, the portable barricade is not set up again.

This action is treated as a Reposition action. An operative cannot perform this action while within control range of an enemy operative, or in the same activation in which it performed the Fall Back or Charge action.

When you select this equipment, select two utility grenades (2 smoke, 2 stun, or 1 smoke and 1 stun). Each selection is a unique action your operatives can perform, but your kill team can only perform that action a total number of times during the battle equal to your selection.

SMOKE GRENADE (1 AP):

• Place one of your Smoke Grenade markers within 6" of this operative. It must be visible to this operative, or on Vantage terrain of a terrain feature that is visible to this operative. The marker creates an area of smoke 1" horizontally and unlimited height vertically from (but not below) it.
• While an operative is wholly within an area of smoke, it is obscured to operatives more than 2" from it, and vice versa. In addition, whenever an operative is shooting an enemy operative wholly within an area of smoke, weapons with the Piercing 2 or Piercing Crits 2 weapon rule have the Piercing 1 or Piercing Crits 1 weapon rule (respectively) instead, unless they’re within 2" of each other.
• In the Ready step of the next Strategy phase, roll one D3. Remove that Smoke Grenade marker after a number of activations equal to that D3 have been completed or at the end of the turning point (whichever comes first).
• An operative cannot perform this action while within control range of an enemy operative, or if you have reached the total number of times your kill team can perform it.

When you select this equipment, select two utility grenades (2 smoke, 2 stun, or 1 smoke and 1 stun). Each selection is a unique action your operatives can perform, but your kill team can only perform that action a total number of times during the battle equal to your selection.

STUN GRENADE (1 AP):

• Select one enemy operative visible to and within 6" of this operative. That operative and each other operative within 1" of it takes a stun test. For an operative to take a stun test, roll one D6: on a 3+, subtract 1 from its APL stat until the end of its next activation.
• An operative cannot perform this action while within control range of an enemy operative, or if you have reached the total number of times your kill team can perform it.

When you select this equipment, select two explosive grenades (2 frag, 2 krak, or 1 frag and 1 krak).

When you select this equipment, select two explosive grenades (2 frag, 2 krak, or 1 frag and 1 krak).

Once per battle, when a friendly operative performs the Breach action, you can use this rule. If you do, that operative can perform that action for 1 less AP (to a minimum of 1AP) as though it had the word "breach marker" on its datacard.

Use this firefight ploy when a ready friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative is incapacitated. Before it is removed from the killzone, it can immediately perform one free action. Unless otherwise specified, the operative would be injured for this.

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative is performing the Fight action during an activation in which it has performed the Charge action, at the start of the Resolve Attack Dice step. Until the end of that action:

Its melee weapon has the Shock weapon rule. The first time you strike during that sequence, inflict 1 additional damage (to a maximum of 7).

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative is activated. Select one objective marker within 3" and visible to that operative. Until the end of the battle or until you use this ploy again (whichever comes first), when determining control of that objective marker, treat friendly operatives’ APL stat as 1 higher. Note this isn’t a change to the APL stat, so any changes are cumulative with this.

Use this firefight ploy when an operative is shooting a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative, in the Roll Defence Dice step. You can retain one of your normal successes as a critical success instead.

Use this Firefight Ploy before deploying your kill team. Select one SPACE HULK VETERAN operative, this operative is not deployed in the Killzone. Instead, during any of its activations, it can deploy anywhere in the Killzone that is more than 6" away from enemy operatives. Operatives deployed via Teleport Strike count as having made a Reposition action this Turning Point.

You can ignore any changes to the stats of friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operatives from being injured (including their weapons' stats).

Until the end of the Turning Point, whenever an attack dice inflicts damage of 3 or more on to a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative, roll one D6: on a 5+, subtract 1 from that inflicted damage.

Until the end of the Turning Point, while a friendly SPACE HULK VETERAN operative is within 3" of and Visible to a friendly LEADER operative, each time it fights in combat or makes a shooting attack, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that combat or shooting attack, operatives' weapons have the balanced weapon rule.
