Tenien's Trenchers

Common Abilities and Options

Markerlight (1AP):
Select one enemy operative Visible to this operative. That enemy operative gains one Markerlight token until the end of the Turning Point. This operative cannot perform this action while within Engagement Range of enemy operatives. If an operative would perform this action and a Shoot action in the same activation, only the target of that Shoot action's shooting attack can be selected for this action.

Each time a shooting attack is made against an enemy operative, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that shooting attack, if that enemy operative has one or more Markerlight tokens, you can re-roll one of your attack dice.

Artificial Intelligence:
This operative cannot perform mission actions or the Pick Up action For the purposes of determining control of objective markers, treat this operative's APL as 1 lower. Each time a shooting attack is made against this operative, in the Roll Defence Dice step of that shooting attack, if it has an Engage order, defence dice cannot be automatically retained as a result of Cover. When drawing a Visibility line from a DRONE operative, draw it from any part of the round disc at the top of the miniature, as shown by the red keyline area on the diagram below. Unless otherwise specified, this operative cannot be equipped with equipment.

Savior Protocols:
Each time a friendly HUNTER CADRE operative (excluding DRONE operatives) is selected as the target of a shooting attack, if there is a friendly DRONE operative with this ability Visible to and within 2" of it and not within Engagement Range of an enemy operative, if that friendly DRONE operative is not protecting any other operatives, it can protect that friendly HUNTER CADRE operative until the end of the Turning Point. If it does so, until the end of the Turning Point or until they are no longer within 2" of each other (whichever comes first), each time a shooting attack is made against that friendly HUNTER CADRE operative, make that shooting attack against that friendly DRONE operative instead, even if it would not be a valid target. In the Roll Defence Dice step of that shooting attack, defence dice cannot be automatically retained as a result of Cover. Friendly HUNTER CADRE operatives cannot be protected by Saviour Protocols from shooting attacks made against each operative within range of a specified point (e.g. remote mine, see Kill Team: Octarius). Note that this also means they cannot be protected from the subsequent shooting attacks made as a result of the Blast X or Torrent X special rules.

Smart Targeting: Each time this operative makes a shooting attack with this weapon, you can use this special rule. If you do so, for that shooting attack:

Enemy operatives with an Engage order that are not within Engagement Range of friendly operatives are valid targets and cannot be in Cover.

In the Roll Attack Dice step of that shooting attack, attack dice results of 6 are successful normal hits. All other attack dice results are failed hits.

Support Turret: This operatives cannot have a conceal order and can only perform shoot and overwatch actions. It cannot fight in combat and cannot provide combat support.

Note: tactical support turrets are automated defensive batteries that ptovide support for Fire Warriors and T'au kill teams. They are often deployed by orca dropships into fixed positions and add the considerable power of their missiles to the fight.
