Bulky: - This operative cannot be placed on Vantage terrain higher than 2" from the killzone floor

• Whenever this operative would perform the Fight action, the distance requirements of its control range can be changed to 1" horizontally and 4" vertically until the end of that action
• This operative can move through other operatives (excluding NEMESIS operatives)
• Ignore all changes to this operative's APL and if it is a player operative, APL changes do not affect the 5AP you can spend per turning point.

Extra Defence: Whenever an operative is shooting this operative, collect and roll one additional defence die, unless this operative is injured.

Nemesis - Large: ### Weapon and Option Selection

KillTeam Composition

Towering Size: - In the Firefight phase, whenever you determine this operative's order, you cannot select Conceal

• This operative cannot be in cover or obscured by Light terrain, terrain parts less than 3" tall or terrain that is not wholly intervening
• Whenever another operative is performing the Shoot action, being within control range of other operatives does not prevent this operative from being selected as a valid target. In other words, this operative can be shot while within control range of friendly operatives
• This operative can move through terrain parts less than 2" tall. It cannot move through Accessible terrain (excluding hatchways) unless that terrain is also less than 2" tall
• Whenever this operative would finish a move in a terrain feature less than 2" tall, temporarily remove that terrain feature from the killzone, then return it when this operative leaves that location; if it is an equipment terrain feature, remove it from the battle instead

Behaviour: Guardian: This NPO will shoot the enemy as a priority, but will fight if the need arises. When activated, if it's a NEMESIS NPO or will perform the Fight, Charge or Shoot action during that activation, give it an Engage order. Otherwise, give it a Conceal order.

1. Fight.
2. Shoot.
3. Charge the closest player operative that's within 4" of it via the shortest possible route.
4. Reposition. If possible, to a location where there's a valid target that isn't obscured, if not, to a location that's appropriate for the NPOs to better win the mission (a subsequent Dash action can fulfil these).
5. Dash. If possible, to a location where there's a valid target that isn't obscured, if not, to a location that's appropriate for the NPOs to better win the mission.

Allegiance: Tyranid: Will Of The Hive Mind:

Ignore the changes to Tyranid NPO and Tyranid Nemesis operatives' stats from being injured (including their weapon stats).

Trait: Armoured: With a tough hide of dense carapace or artificial plating, this operative can stride through hailstorms of the enemy's increasingly desperate small arms fire.

Whenever an operative is shooting this operative with a weapon that has a Normal Dmg stat of 3 or less, improve this operative's Save stat by 1.

Trait: Blitz: This warrior strikes the enemy like a thunderbolt, their fury-driven charge fuelling a flurry of savage blows against their enemy.

Whenever this operative performs the Charge action during its activation, its melee weapons have the Severe and Shock weapon rules until the end of that activation.

Trait: Duellist: Through exceptional parrying, deft evasion or the capacity to bodily deflect a foe's blows, this operative wears down enemy fighters.

Whenever this operative is fighting or retaliating, you can resolve one of its successes before the normal order. If you do, that success must be used to block.

Trait: Close-range Lethality: Those who venture too close to this destructive entity invite its full ire as it bends its will - and considerable firepower - to their swift eradication.

Whenever this operative is shooting the closest valid target within 8" of it, its ranged weapons have the Lethal 5+ weapon rule; if the weapon already has that weapon rule, it also has the Severe weapon rule.

Trait: Crushing Impact: Thundering headlong into the fray, this combatant uses both the impetus of their charge and their armoured bulk to bring swift death to their foes.

When this operative finishes moving during the Charge action, inflict D3+3 damage on one enemy operative within its control range.

Trait: Shielded: With an ablative outer skin, redundancy mechanisms or the ability to call upon esoteric protection, this operative can shrug off what should be a devastating blow.

Once per battle, when an attack dice inflicts damage on this operative, you can ignore that inflicted damage.

Trait: Tough: Some operatives are exceptionally hardy, capable of enduring even in the face of horrific wounds. Such a trait may be due to thickened endoskeletons, reinforced subsystems or even supernatural warding.

Whenever an attack dice inflicts damage of 4 or more on this operative, roll one D6: on a 5+, subtract 1 from that inflicted damage.

Trait: Violent Demise: From detonating ammunition stores to corrosive innards and frenzied death throes, some large targets are dangerous even in defeat.

If this operative is incapacitated, before it's removed from the killzone, inflict D6+1 damage on each other operative within 3" of it (excluding operatives with Heavy terrain wholly intervening between them and this operative).

Behavior: 1. Fight.

2. Charge the closest player operative via the shortest possible route.

3. Reposition towards the closest player operative, to cover if possible (a subsequent Dash action can fulfil this, if able).

4. Dash towards the closest player operative, to cover if possible.

Hiddden Predator: After this operative performs the Fight action, it immediately performs a free Fall Back action, to cover if possible. Whenever this operative is in cover from a player operative, it is not visible to that player operative.

Behaviour - Brawler: This NPO will move towards the enemy to fight them, but will seek cover on its way. When activated, if it's a NEMESIS NPO or will perform the Fight or Charge action during that activation, give it an Engage order. Otherwise, give it a Conceal order.

1. Fight.
2. Charge the closest player operative via the shortest possible route.
3. Reposition towards the closest player operative, to cover if possible (a subsequent Dash action can fulfil this).
4. Dash towards the closest player operative, to cover if possible.

Lightning Reflexes: Whenever this NPO is fighting, worsen the Hit stat of the enemy operative's weapons by 1 (to a minimum of 5+).

Behaviour - Marksman: This NPO will move to an ideal position to shoot the enemy. When activated, if it's a NEMESIS NPO or will perform the Shoot action during that activation, give it an Engage order. Otherwise, give it a Conceal order.

1. Fall Back. If possible, to a location where there's a valid target that isn't obscured, if not, to a location that's appropriate for the NPOs to better win the mission.
2. Shoot.
3. Reposition. If possible, to a location where there's a valid target that isn't obscured, if not, to a location that's appropriate for the NPOs to better win the mission (a subsequent Dash action can fulfil these).
4. Dash. If possible, to a location where there's a valid target that isn't obscured, if not, to a location that's appropriate for the NPOs to better win the mission.
