Guardian Protocol: Whenever an enemy operative is performing a Shoot action, if this operative has an Engage order, that operative cannot select a friendly LEADER operative within this operative’s control range as a valid target.

Available Equipment: - Tesla Weave

  • Mindshackle Scarabs
  • Devourer Nanoscarabs
  • Quantum Reanimytes
  • Sempiternal Weave

*Shield: Whenever this operative is fighting or retaliating with this weapon, each of your blocks can be allocated to block two unresolved successes (instead of one).

VETERANS OF THE WAR IN HEAVEN (Strategy Ploy): Until the end of the Turning Point, each time Critical Damage would be inflicted upon a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative from an attack dice, you can choose for that attack dice to inflict Normal Damage instead.

UNRELENTING ASSAULT (Strategy Ploy): Whenever a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative is fighting during an activation in which it performed the charge action, its melee weapons have the Ceaseless weapon rule.

ARTIFICE OF AEONS (Strategy Ploy): Whenever an enemy operative is shooting a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative who is within range of an objective marker or a mission marker, you may re-roll one of your defense dice.

GUARDIAN PROTOCOL (Strategy Ploy): Until the end of the turning point, whenever a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative is retaliating within 6" of a LEADER operative, you resolve the first attack dice. (i.e. defender instead of attacker)

LEECH POWER (Tactical Ploy): Use this Tactical Ploy when a friendly LEADER operative is activated. Select one friendly WARRIOR operative within 2'' of that LEADER operative. If that other friendly operative’s APL is not negatively modified (in total after applying all modifiers), subtract 1 from its APL and add 1 to that LEADER operative’s APL.

SUBSERVIENCE PROTOCOL (Tactical Ploy): Use this tactical ploy during a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative’s activation. Until the end of that activation, that operative can perform a free shoot or fight action if the selected target is within range of an objective marker or one of your mission markers. It may not use this ploy when counteracting.

TERRITORIAL OBSESSION (Tactical Ploy): Use this tactical ploy when activating a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative. Whenever determining control of a marker, treat this operative's APL stat as 1 higher. Note this is not a change to its APL stat, so any changes are cumulative with this.

ENGRAMMATIC OVERRIDE (Tactical Ploy): Use this tactical ploy when a friendly LYCHGUARD or PRAETORIAN operative is incapacitated while fighting or retaliating. You can strike the enemy operative in that sequence with one of your unresolved successes before it’s removed from the killzone.
