Common Abilities and Options

Morale 6+:

Reanimation Protocols:
If your Army Faction is NECRONS, at the end of your Strategy phase, each unit from your army with this ability that is on the battlefield activates its Reanimation Protocols and reanimates D3 wounds. Each time such a unit reanimates a wound:

  • If that unit contains one or more models with fewer than their starting number of wounds remaining, select one of those models; that model regains one lost wound.
  • If all models in that unit have their starting number of wounds, but that unit is not at its Starting Strength, one destroyed model is returned to that unit with one wound remaining.
  • Once such a unit is at its Starting Strength and all of its models have their starting number of wounds, nothing further happens.

Leader:
This model can be attached to the following units:

  • Immortals
  • Necron Warriors

You can attach this model to one of the above units even if one ROYAL WARDEN or NOBLE model has already been attached to it. If you do, and that Bodyguard unit is destroyed, the Leader units attached to it become separate units, with their original Starting Strengths.

Deadly Demise D6:
When this model is destroyed, roll one D6. On a 6, each unit within 6" suffers ‘x’ mortal wounds.

Deep Strike:
Units where all models have this ability may be set aside before deployment. At the start of any round after the first, after determining initiative, units where all models have this ability may be deployed anywhere on the battlefield over 9” away from enemy models. Players alternate in placing units with DEEP STRIKE, starting with the player with the initiative.

Feel No Pain 5+:
Some models have ‘Feel No Pain x+’ listed in their abilities. Each time a model with this ability suffers damage and so would lose a wound (including wounds lost due to mortal wounds), roll one D6: if the result is greater than or equal to the number denoted by ‘x’, that wound is ignored and is not lost. If a model has more than one Feel No Pain ability, you can only use one of those abilities each time that model suffers damage and so would lose a wound.

Necrodermis:
Each time an attack is allocated to this model, subtract 1 from the Damage characteristic of that attack.

400 Points:

Damaged: While this unit’s Szarekh model has 1-6 wounds remaining, halve the Attacks characteristic of that model’s weapons, and each time this unit makes an attack, subtract 1 from the Hit roll.

Deadly Demise D6+3 (Silent King Model Only): Some models have ‘Deadly Demise x’ listed in their abilities. When such a model is destroyed, roll one D6 before removing it from play (if such a model is a TRANSPORT, roll before any embarked models disembark). On a 6, 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").

The Silent King: While a friendly NECRONS unit is within 6" of this unit’s Silent King model, improve that unit’s Morale characteristic by 1.

Triarchal Menhir - 5 wounds: - This unit includes 2 Triarchal Menhir, each with a wounds value of 5.

  • Each Triarchal Menhir is equipped with 1 Annhilator Beam.

  • When Damage is done to this unit, the controlling player of this unit may allocate damage to a Triarchal Menhir rather than the Silent King himself.

  • Once each Triarchal Menhir has been allocated a total of 5 wounds, it is destroyed and removed from play.

  • If this unit’s Silent King model is destroyed, all of this unit’s remaining Triarchal Menhir models are also destroyed.

Voice of the Triarch: At the start of the battle round, select one of the following Triarch abilities:

  • Phaeron of the Stars
  • Phaeron of the Blades
  • Relentless March

Until the start of the next battle round, this unit has that ability.

Phaeron of the Stars (Aura): While a friendly NECRONS unit (excluding MONSTER units) is within 6" of this unit’s Silent King model, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, re-roll a Hit roll of 1.

Phaeron of the Blades (Aura): While a friendly NECRONS unit (excluding MONSTER units) is within 6" of this unit’s Silent King model, each time a model in that unit makes a melee attack, add 1 to the Strength characteristic of that attack.

Relentless March (Aura): While a friendly NECRONS unit (excluding MONSTER units) is within 6" of this unit’s Silent King model, add 2" to the Move characteristic of models in that unit.

75 Points:

Obelisk Node Control: While this model is within range of an objective marker you control, enemy units that are set up on the battlefield from Reserves cannot be set up within 12" of this model.

Tectonic Reverberations: At the beginning of this unit's activation, you can select one enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this model. Until the start this unit's next activation, that enemy unit is pinned. While a unit is pinned, subtract 2" from that unit’s Move characteristic.

Vanguard Protocols: If this model is attached to a CANOPTEK MACROCYTES unit during the Declare Battle Formations step, this model has the Scouts 8" ability.

Some units have ‘Scouts x"’ listed in their abilities. If every model in a unit has this ability, then at the start of the first battle round, before the first turn begins, it can make a Normal move of up to x", with the exception that, while making that move, the distance moved by each model in that unit can be greater than that model's Move characteristic, as long as it is not greater than x".

DEDICATED TRANSPORT models can make use of any Scouts x" ability listed in their abilities, or a Scouts x" ability that a unit that starts the battle embarked within that DEDICATED TRANSPORT model has (provided only models with this ability are embarked within that DEDICATED TRANSPORT model), regardless of how that embarked unit gained this ability (e.g. listed in their abilities, conferred by an Enhancement or by an attached CHARACTER, etc.).

Seek And Destroy: Sweep & Clear

Reveal: The first time an enemy operative is incapacitated while contesting an objective marker, or the first time a friendly operative performs the Clear action (whichever comes first).

Additional Rules:

When an enemy operative that contests an objective marker is incapacitated, that objective marker gains one of your Swept tokens (if it doesn't already have one) until the Ready step of the next Strategy phase.

Mission Action: Clear (1 AP)

  • An objective marker the active operative controls is cleared for the turning point.
  • An operative cannot perform this action during the first turning point, or while within control range of an enemy operative.

Victory Points:

  • At the end of each turning point after the first, if at least one objective marker (excluding your objective marker) is cleared and enemy operatives do not contest that marker, you score 1VP. If that marker also has one of your Swept tokens, you score 2VP instead.
  • If friendly operatives control an objective marker that has one of your Swept tokens, you score 1 VP.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.

Seek And Destroy: Dominate

Reveal: The first time an enemy operative is incapacitated by a friendly operative.

Additional Rules:

Each time a friendly operative incapacitates an enemy operative, that friendly operative gains one of your or two of your Dominate tokens if that enemy operative had a Wounds stat of 12 or more.

Victory Points:

At the end of the third and fourth turning point, you can remove Dominate tokens from friendly operatives that aren't incapacitated. For each you remove, you score 1VP.

You cannot score more than 3VP from this op per turning point.

Seek And Destroy: Rout

Reveal: The first time you score VP from this op.

Victory Points:

Whenever a friendly operative incapacitates an enemy operative, if that friendly operative is within 6" of your opponent's drop zone, you score 1VP; if this is true and that enemy operative had a Wounds stat of 12 or more, you score 2VP instead.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.

Security: Plant Banner

Reveal: When you perform the Plant Banner action.

Mission Action: Plant Banner (1 AP)

  • Place your Banner mission marker within the active operative's control range, wholly within your opponent's territory and more than 5" from a neutral killzone edge. Operatives can perform the Pick Up Marker action on your Banner mission marker.
  • An operative cannot perform this action during the first turning point, while within control range of an enemy operative, or if a friendly operative has already performed this action during the battle.

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first, if your Banner mission marker is wholly within your opponent's territory and friendly operatives control it, you score 1VP; if that's true and no enemy operatives contest it, you score 2VP instead. Note your Banner mission marker must be in the killzone (not being carried) to score.

Security: Martyrs

Reveal: The first time a friendly operative is incapacitated while contesting an objective marker.

Additional Rules:

Whenever a friendly operative is incapacitated while contesting an objective marker, that marker gains one of your Martyr tokens.
Note that this is only the first time each operative is incapacitated, so if an operative is incapacitated, set back up (e.g. HIEROTEK CIRCLE Reanimation Protocols) and then subsequently incapacitated again, a second Martyr token cannot be gained as a result.

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first, if friendly operatives contest an objective marker that has one or more of your Martyr tokens, you can remove any of those tokens. For each token you remove, you score 1VP; if friendly operatives also control that marker, you score 2VP instead.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.

Security: Envoy

Reveal: The first time you select an envoy.

Additional Rules:

As a STRATEGIC GAMBIT in each turning point after the first, select one friendly operative to be your envoy until the Ready step of the next Strategy phase. You cannot select an operative you selected during a previous turning point or an operative that's ignored for the kill op.

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first, if your envoy is wholly within enemy territory and not within control range of enemy operatives, you score 1VP; if this is true and your envoy has not lost any wounds during that turning point, you score 2VP instead.

Infiltration: Track Enemy

Reveal: The first time you score VP from this op.

Additional Rules:

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first:

  • If one enemy operative is being tracked, you score 1VP, or 2VP instead if it's the fourth turning point.
  • If two or more enemy operatives are being tracked, you score 2VP.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.

Infiltration: Plant Devices

Reveal: The first time a friendly operative performs the Plant Device action.

Mission Action: Plant Device (1 AP)

  • One objective marker the active operative controls gains one of your Device tokens.
  • An operative cannot perform this action during the first turning point, while within control range of an enemy operative, or if that objective marker already has one of your Device tokens.

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first:

  • If your opponent's objective marker has one of your Device tokens, you score 1VP.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.

Infiltration: Steal Intelligence

Reveal: The first time an enemy operative is incapacitated.

In other words, each friendly operative can carry up to two Intelligence mission markers, or one and one other marker.

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first, if any friendly operatives are carrying any of your Intelligence mission markers, you score 1VP.

At the end of the battle, for each of your Intelligence mission markers friendly operatives are carrying, you score 1VP.

Recon: Flank

Reveal: As a STRATEGIC GAMBIT.

Additional Rules:

Divide the killzone into two flanks (left and right) by drawing an imaginary line that's just like the centreline, except it runs from the centre of each player's killzone edge. An operative contests a flank while both wholly within it and wholly within their opponent's territory. Friendly operatives control a flank if the total APL stat of those contesting it is greater than that of enemy operatives.

Victory Points:

  • After you reveal this op, at the end of each turning point after the first, for each flank friendly operatives control, you score 1VP.
  • In the fourth turning point, ff friendly operatives also controlled that flank at the end of the third turning point, you score 2VP instead.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.

Recon: Retrieval

Reveal: The first time you score VP from this op.

Friendly operatives can perform the Pick Up Marker action on your Retrieval mission markers.
  • An operative cannot perform this action during the first turning point, while within control range of an enemy operative, or if it's already carrying a marker.

Victory Points:

  • At the end of the battle, for each of your Retrieval mission markers friendly operatives are carrying, you score 1VP.
Recon: Scout Enemy Movement

Reveal: The first time a friendly operative performs the Scout action.

Mission Action: Scout (1 AP)

  • Select one ready enemy operative visible to and more than 6" from the active operative. That enemy operative is now monitored until the Ready step of the next Strategy phase.
  • An operative cannot perform this action while it has an Engage order, during the first turning point, or while within control range of an enemy operative.

Victory Points:

At the end of each turning point after the first, for each monitored enemy operative that's visible to friendly operatives, you score 1VP. Note that it doesn't have to be a friendly operative that performed the Scout action.

You cannot score more than 2VP from this op per turning point.
