Common rules
-
Tough
This unit does not count as being Wounded by a failed Grit Check and instead receives the Stunned Condition (even if not normally able to be Stunned or if the hit would cause them to become Stunned anyway). If the unit is already Stunned, 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.
-
Durable The unit may ignore the first point of Piercing from an attack. However, if the hit is caused by a weapon with a Piercing of -4 or greater then Durable has no effect.
