 Psychic powers and special rules
Psychic powers:
The relentless – All Warrior forms within an 18” radius of the model
using the power gains the “feel no pain” rule

Welcome to your tomb – Enemy models within 24” of the model using
this power must take a morale test when assaulting a Flood unit.
Enemy models within 18” of the model using the power must also take
a morale test when assaulted by a Flood unit.

Join us – Infection forms re-rolls all attempts to infect a target.

Consume! – All Flood creatures gain a re-roll to-hit in close combat.

Special rules:
Infect! – Infection forms always hit on a 4+, they always wound on a
4+ and for every unsaved wound inflicted roll a D6. On a 4+ the
target is infected and becomes a Warrior form forming a separate unit
engaged in close combat. All warrior forms created in the same
combat are of the same unit. Unless the target is Human the warrior
forms are considered Xeno, They have the same equipment as the
targets but cannot use grenades or other equipment besides ranged,
close combat weapons and the targets armour. If the target does not
have the “furious charge” rule this is discarded. Infected units do not
count as kill points as long as they are in combat with their original
unit. Infection forms must assault the closest enemy non-
demonic/monstrous and all organic units.
Infection forms may resurrect a friendly killed warrior form on a 4+.
Monstrous creatures cannot be infected.
Demonic units cannot be infected
Non-organic units cannot be infected(necrons, wraithguard, drones
etc.)
Warrior forms that has suffered instant death or has been killed by a
power weapon/powerfist or a template weapon or an Ap1-2 weapon
cannot be resurrect since their body has been destroyed.
For every successful infection the infection forms loses 1wound, this
does not affect combat resolution.
Open-topped vehicles are infected on a 6+.
Carrier – When a Carrier form dies roll a dice 3-6 place a blast
marker over the model, this is a S4 Ap- hit, then place two Infection
form bases where the Carrier form was. On a 1-2 place a Large blast
marker over the carrier, this is a S4 Ap- hit then place two Infection
form bases where the Carrier form was. Carriers must assault the
closest enemy non-demonic/monstrous and all organic units.

Transform – Pure forms may transform once every turn.

This is done at the start of the movement, but if they do they cannot
move in the movement phase. They may however make a “Run!” move
in the shooting phase and may still assault, the normal restrictions for
running apply. Pure forms may not Transform in combat.
They may transform into one of the following each turn:

Stalker form – A stalker gains the beast rule, a S4, Ws4, “rending”
and a 5+ armour save it also gains a +2I and -1T.
All Pure forms start as Stalkers.
Ranged form – A ranged form gains two of the weapon “Barbed
spikes” and a 3+ armour save they are also relentless and may fire
both their “Barbed spikes” they also gain S3 and Ws 2.
Tank form – A Tank form gains a S5 Ws4 a 2+ armour save and
“Feel no pain” they also gain rending claws.

Immobile – Proto-graveminds are immobile and cannot move, thus

they cannot attack. The Proto-gravemind and its retinue are fearless.

We are one! – all wounds that a Proto-gravemind suffers are

redirected to it’s retinue, also any “No retreat” wounds only affects
the retinue.

Warrior form – Warrior forms may option to disengage their

infection form when in close combat, this is worked out as a normal
infection form attack. But the warrior form dies, any infected targets
join the warrior unit that issued the attack. Imperial forces, Eldar,
Small targets and Tau forces are counted as Human warrior forms
when infected.
