Grey Knights Warp-Bane Strike Force
Common Abilities and Options
Personal Teleporters:
Whenever a friendly Warp-Bane Strike Force operative makes the Reposition action, that operative may be removed from the killzone and set back up anywhere wholly within a distance of 6" and outside of control range of enemy operatives (in a killzone that uses the close quarters rules, this distance cannot be measured over or through Wall terrain).
Sanctic Astartes:
During each friendly Warp-Bane Strike Force operative’s activation, it can perform either two Shoot actions or two Fight actions. If it’s two Shoot actions and a psilencer, psycannon, or incinerator is selected for both, 1 additional AP must be spent for the second action. You cannot select the same ranged PSYCHIC weapon more than once per activation.
Each friendly Warp-Bane Strike Force operative can counteract regardless of its order. Whenever it does, it can perform an additional 1AP action for free during that counteraction, but both actions must be different.

Purge Soul
Once per game a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative can make a single Shooting attack using the Purge Soul weapon profile.
Hexagrammic Wards
Once per turning point, when a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative is rolling defense dice, if you roll two or more fails, you can discard one of them to retain another as a normal success instead.
Psybolt Ammunition
Once per turning point, when a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative is performing the Shoot action and you select a Storm Bolter, you can use this rule. If you do, select one of the following weapon rules for that weapon to have until the end of that action:
- Rending
- Lethal 5+
- Torrent 1"
Prognosticar's Gift
Before the battle, roll two D3 and put them to one side, then add one to each result. For each result of 2-4, you can use the Command Re-roll firefight ploy for 0CP once during the turning point that matches the result. For example: You roll a 1 and a 3, then add 1 to each result, which leaves a 2 and a 4, you can then use Command Re-roll for 0CP once during turning points 2 and 4.
Ploys
Blinding Entrance
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy after a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative that was not a valid target for any enemy operative at start of its activation uses the Personal Teleporters rule. Until the end of the turning point that friendly operative is obscured.
Repelling Sphere
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy when a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative is activated. Whenever this operative is first activated, roll a D3, then move all operatives within control range of this operative X". X is the total result of the rolled die. Targets must be moved to a location where they can be placed and as far as possible from this operative, determined by X". The move must be done in one straight-line increment, if that line would intersect with a peice of terrain, it ends. Whenever the target is dropping during that move, ignore the vertical distance. You cannot use this ploy for each friendly operative more than once per battle.
Warp Quake
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy when a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative is activated. For the remainder of the turning point, whenever an enemy operative is within 2" of this operative your opponent must spend 1 additional AP for that enemy operative to perform the Pick Up Marker and mission actions. In addition, whenever determining control of a marker, treat the total APL stat of enemy operatives that contest it as 1 lower if at least one of those enemy operatives is within 2" of this friendly operative. Note this isn’t a change to the APL stat, so any changes are cumulative with this.
Prescient Mind
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy when a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE that is outside control range of enemy operatives finishes its activation. Select one readied enemy operative visible to it, your opponent must then activate the selected enemy operative instead of choosing as normal.
And They Shall Know No Fear
Strategy PloyYou can ignore any changes to the stats of friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operatives from being injured (including their weapons’ stats).
Hallowed Ground
Strategy PloyPlace your Hallowed Ground marker wholly within your territory and outside of 2" of enemy operatives. Whenever a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative is shooting, fighting, or retaliating against an enemy operative that is within 2" of your Hallowed Ground marker, that friendly operative's weapons have the Devastating 1 weapon rule (this is not cumulative with any other instance of the Devastating rule). In the Ready step of the next Strategy phase, if your Hallowed Ground marker is still in the killzone, remove it.
Truesilver Will
Strategy PloyFor the remainder of this turning point, whenever a friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operative is activated, it regains D3 lost wounds.
Gate of Infinity
Strategy PloySelect a up to two friendly WARP-BANE STRIKE FORCE operatives, the selected operatives can immediately make a free Reposition action using the Personal Teleporters rule but must be setup within 3" of its starting location, as opposed to the normal 6".
