Common Abilities and Options

Cult Ambush:
Whenever a friendly WYRMBLADE operative is shooting or fighting during its activation, if its order was changed from Conceal to Engage at the start of that activation, or it wasn’t visible to enemy operatives at the start of that activation, that friendly operative's weapons have the Ceaseless weapon rule.

Familiar Territory:
When setting up a WYRMBLADE kill team before the battle, one third of your kill team can be set up in HIDING: place them to one side instead of in the killzone. CULT AGENT operatives cannot be set up in HIDING.

In the Firefight phase, friendly WYRMBLADE operatives set up in HIDING are activated as normal. When you do, you can either expend that operative or have it emerge. If it emerges, set it up in the killzone in a location it can be placed as follows (it’s no longer set up in HIDING):

  • Wholly within 6" of your drop zone.
  • More than 6" from enemy operatives.
  • With an order of your choice.

The operative is treated as performing the Reposition action (spend the AP accordingly), then continue its activation as normal. If the operative is a WARRIOR, ignore its Group Activation rule. Friendly operatives still in HIDING at the end of the second turning point are incapacitated.

Shadow Vector:
Once per turning point, you can use the Slink Into Darkness or Coiled Serpent firefight ploy for 0CP if the specified friendly WYRMBLADE operative is a NEOPHYTE visible to this operative.

Cult Agent:
Whenever an operative is shooting a friendly WYRMBLADE CULT AGENT operative:

  • Ignore the Piercing and Saturate weapon rules.
  • If you can retain any cover saves, you can retain one additional cover save, or you can retain one cover save as a critical success instead. This isn’t cumulative with improved cover saves from Vantage terrain.

Familiar's Soulsight (1AP):
Select one enemy operative visible to this operative. Until the end of the battle, or until this action is performed again by a friendly operative (whichever comes first), that enemy operative gains one of your Soulsight tokens. Whenever this operative is shooting an enemy operative that has one of your Soulsight tokens, all profiles of this operative's Sanctus sniper rifle have the Saturate weapon rule and that enemy operative cannot be obscured.

This operative cannot perform this action while within control range of an enemy operative.

Heavy Weapon Bipod:
Whenever this operative is shooting with a weapon from its datacard, if it hasn’t moved during the activation, or if it’s a counteraction, that weapon has the Ceaseless weapon rule; if the weapon already has that weapon rule (i.e. from the Cult Ambush faction rule), it has the Relentless weapon rule. Note this operative isn’t restricted from moving after shooting.

Group Activation:
Whenever this operative is expended, you must then activate one other ready friendly WYRMBLADE WARRIOR operative (if able) before your opponent activates. When that other operative is expended, your opponent then activates as normal (in other words, you cannot activate more than two operatives in succession with this rule).

Creeping Shadow: This operative can perform the Charge action while it has a Conceal order. Whenever this operative performs the Fight action, it can immediately perform a free Dash or Fall Back action afterwards (for the latter, it cannot move more than 3"), even if it’s performed an action that prevents it from performing those actions.

Assassinate (2AP): Select one enemy operative this operative isn’t visible to. Perform a free Charge action with this operative, but do not exceed its Move stat (i.e. do not add 2"), and it must end that move within control range of that enemy operative. Then immediately perform a free Fight action with this operative against that enemy operative. The first time you strike during that action, you can immediately resolve another of your successes as a strike (before your opponent).

This operative cannot perform this action while it has an Engage order, or while within control range of an enemy operative.

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

Expert Swordsman: This operative can perform two Fight actions during its activation. Whenever this operative ends the Fight action, if it’s no longer within control range of enemy operatives, it can immediately perform a free Charge action (even if it’s already performed the Charge action during that activation), but it cannot move more than 3" during that action. Doing so doesn’t prevent it from performing the Dash action afterwards during that activation.

Quicksilver Strike: Once per turning point, after an enemy operative performs an action in which it moves or is set up, you can interrupt to use this rule. If you do, this operative can immediately perform a free Charge action (you can change its order to do so), but it cannot move more than 3", and it must end that move within control range of that enemy operative. If this isn’t possible, the interruption is cancelled and this rule hasn’t been used.

Icon Bearer: 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.

Overthrow The Oppressors: Once per turning point, when a ready friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operative is incapacitated while visible to and within 6" of this operative, you can use this rule. If you do, before that operative is removed from the killzone, it can either perform one free Shoot action (you can change its order to do so), or you can use the A Plan Generations in the Making firefight ploy for 0CP if that incapacitated operative is the specified friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operative.

It is then removed from the killzone as normal.

Equipment

Blasting Charges

Once per turning point, a friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operative can use the following ranged weapon:

NameAtkHitDmg
Blasting Charge44+3/5
Weapon Rules
Range 4", Blast 1", Saturate
Cult Knives

Friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operatives have the following melee weapon:

NameAtkHitDmg
Cult Knife34+3/4
Explosive Traps

This equipment allows you to select two mines (see universal equipment). You cannot also select that equipment as normal (i.e. to give you three), and friendly WYRMBLADE operatives are ignored for your mines’ effects (i.e. they cannot trigger or take damage from them). This takes precedence over the normal mines rules.

Spotlights

Whenever a friendly WYRMBLADE operative is shooting, the target cannot be obscured if it is visible to and within 6" of a friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operative that is not within control range of enemy operatives.

Ploys

Crossfire
Strategy Ploy

Whenever a friendly WYRMBLADE operative is shooting an operative that another friendly WYRMBLADE operative has already shot during this turning point, that first friendly operative's ranged weapons have the Accurate 1 weapon rule.
Accurate 1: You can retain 1 Attack Die as a normal success without rolling it.

Divert And Disappear
Strategy Ploy

Up to three friendly WYRMBLADE operatives can immediately perform a free Dash or Charge action in an order of your choice (choose separately for each, and for the latter, it cannot move more than 3"). If a WYRMBLADE CULT AGENT operative is selected for this ploy, it counts as two operatives, and it can perform a free Fall Back action instead (it cannot move more than 3"); if it does, subtract 1 from its APL stat until the end of its next activation.

One With The Shadows
Strategy Ploy

Whenever an operative is shooting a friendly WYRMBLADE operative that has a Conceal order, if Light terrain is intervening, that friendly operative is obscured (unless the intervening Light terrain is within 1" of either operative).

The Day Is At Hand
Strategy Ploy

Whenever a friendly WYRMBLADE operative is activated, if its order is changed from Conceal to Engage, until the end of that activation:

  • Its ranged weapons have the Rending weapon rule.
  • Add 1 to the Atk stat of its melee weapons (to a maximum of 5).

Rending: If you retain any critical hits, retain 1 normal hit as a critical hit instead.

A Plan Generations In The Making
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operative is incapacitated. It can perform a free mission action before it’s removed from the killzone.

Coiled Serpent
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly WYRMBLADE operative is shooting or fighting, after rolling your attack dice. If that friendly operative’s order was changed from Conceal to Engage at the start of that activation and this is the first time it has performed either the Shoot or Fight action during that activation, you can retain one of your normal successes as a critical success instead. Note this ploy cannot come into effect more than once per activation (you cannot use it during both the Shoot and Fight action in the same activation).

Slink Into Darkness
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy at the end of a friendly WYRMBLADE operative’s activation. If that operative has an Engage order, change it to Conceal. You cannot use this ploy for each friendly operative more than once per battle.

Unquestioning Loyalty
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly WYRMBLADE CULT AGENT or WYRMBLADE LEADER operative is selected as the valid target of a Shoot action or to fight against during the Fight action. Select one other friendly WYRMBLADE NEOPHYTE operative (excluding LEADER) visible to and within 3" of that first friendly operative to become the valid target or to be fought against (as appropriate) instead (even if it wouldn’t normally be valid for this). If it’s the Fight action, treat that other operative as being within the fighting operative’s control range for the duration of that action. If it is the Shoot action, that other operative is only in cover or obscured if the original target was.

This ploy has no effect if it’s the Shoot action and the ranged weapon has the Blast or Torrent weapon rule.

Tac Ops

Sweep & Clear
Seek And Destroy

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).

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

Dominate
Seek And Destroy

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 Dominate tokens.

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

Rout
Seek And Destroy

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

Victory Points:

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

Track Enemy
Infiltration

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 your opponent's objective marker has one of your Device tokens, you score 1VP.
  • For each other objective marker enemy operatives contest that has one of your Device tokens, you score 1VP.

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

Steal Intelligence
Infiltration

Reveal: The first time an enemy operative is incapacitated.

Additional Rules:

Whenever an enemy operative is incapacitated, before it's removed from the killzone, place one of your Intelligence mission markers within its control range.

Friendly operatives can perform the Pick Up Marker action on your Intelligence mission markers, and for the purposes of that action's conditions, ignore the first Intelligence mission marker the active operative is carrying. 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.
