Common rules
-
Mettle
This unit does not count as being Wounded by a failed Grit Check and instead receives the Disordered Condition (even if not normally able to be Disordered or if the hit would cause them to become Disordered anyway). If the unit is already Disordered, it is Wounded as normal.
-
The Quick and the Dead
Once per turn, unless Hunkered, this unit may declare they will use this rule against an enemy model’s Combat Action that declares them as the Initial Target (but before dice are rolled). This unit must make a Quick Check. Should they pass the Quick Check, all hits from that model’s Action against this unit are ignored and this unit becomes Hunkered. If this unit fails the Quick Check, then they are hit as normal. You may not use this rule against hits using Blast or Torrent templates.
-
Target priority
This unit may only be targeted by a Shoot Action if they are the closest enemy unit in Line of Sight or if they are within 12” and Line of Sight.
-
Sure foot
The unit ignores the penalty for Uneven Ground and may re-roll Quick based checks.

Special rules
-
Panday Beck may only be included in a Force that includes Wayland the Smit. Beck may only make Combat Actions with weapons with the Special quality if he is within 4" of Wayland the Smith. Furthermore, while Beck is within 4" of Wayland the Smith, should Beck be nominated as the Initial Target of an attack, Wayland the Smith instead becomes the Initial target of the attack as he dives in front of the bullet, or pushes Beck aside at the last minute. Calculate range, Line of Sight and cover bonuses etc to Beck but resolve the Grit Check on Wayland the Smith instead.
-
The unit must be held in Reserve. Once available the unit is deployed anywjere in the Play Area. You must deploy at least 12" from an enemy unit and cannot deploy into a transport. Unless it is within 8" and Line of Sight, this unit cannot be nominated as the Initial Target of an attack by any HUMAN enemy units unless that unit fist successfully passes a Mind Check.
