Rules: Legiones Astartes (Sons of Horus)
Reactions: Sons of Horus Advanced Reaction

Reactions Description Ref

This Advanced Reaction is available only to units composed entirely of
models with the Legiones Astartes (Sons of Horus) special rule. Unlike
Core Reactions, Advanced Reactions are activated in unique and
specific circumstances, as noted in their descriptions, and can often
have game changing effects. Advanced Reactions use up points of a
Reactive player’s Reaction Allotment as normal and obey all other
restrictions placed upon Reactions, unless it is specifically noted
otherwise in their description.

Death Dealers – This Advanced Reaction may be made once per

battle during the opposing player’s Shooting phase when any enemy Liber
unit declares a Shooting Attack targeting a friendly unit under the Hereticus
Sons of Reactive player’s control composed entirely of models with the – Traitor
Horus Legiones Astartes (Sons of Horus) special rule that is within 12" of the Legiones
Advanced attacking unit. Before the enemy unit resolves any To Hit rolls, the Astartes
Reaction Reacting unit may make a Shooting Attack targeting the unit that Army
triggered this Reaction, increasing its BS by +1 for the duration of the Book
Reaction. A unit that makes a Shooting Attack as part of a Death p281
Dealers Reaction may not make any attacks indirectly (without line of
sight) including weapons with the Barrage special rule or other
weapons or special rules that otherwise ignore line of sight, and
Vehicles may only fire Defensive weapons. Template weapons may
only be used as part of a Death Dealers Reaction if the target unit is
within 8" and must use the Wall of Death rule instead of firing normally.
Once this Shooting Attack is fully resolved, and all casualties caused
by it removed from play, the enemy unit may resolve its own Shooting
Attack – though models removed as casualties due to this Reaction
may still attack.

Selection Rules
Armourbane (Melta): If a model or weapon has this special rule, it rolls an additional D6 for armour
penetration when targeting a Vehicle model, or, when targeting a model with the Automata or Dreadnought
Unit Type, re-rolls all failed rolls To Wound instead. These effects apply to both Shooting Attacks and close
combat attacks.

Some instances of the Armourbane special rule may include a qualifier after the rule in brackets, for
example Armourbane (Melta) or Armourbane (Melee). These variant rules are described below:

Armourbane (Melta): A model or weapon with this Armourbane special rule only gains the benefits of the
Armourbane special rule when at half range or less. If the attack is more than half its Maximum Range away,
it rolls to penetrate as normal. If a weapon with this version of Armourbane also has the Blast special rule
(see page 234), measure the distance to the centre of the Blast marker after it has scattered. If this is half
the weapon’s range or less, then all Hits are counted as having the Armourbane special rule, otherwise the
Hits are resolved as if they did not have the Armourbane special rule.

Armourbane (Melee): A weapon or model with this version of the Armourbane special rule only gains the
benefits of the Armourbane special rule when attacking in close combat.

Armourbane (Ranged): A weapon or model with this version of the Armourbane special rule only gains the
benefits of the Armourbane special rule when making Shooting Attacks. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy -
Age of Darkness Rulebook p231)
Assault Vehicle: Passengers Disembarking from Access Points on a Vehicle with this special rule can
Charge on the turn they do so (including when forced to make an Emergency Disembarkation) unless the
Vehicle arrived from Reserves that turn. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook
p231)
Blast: When firing a Blast weapon, models do not roll To Hit. Instead, pick one enemy model visible to the
firer and place the Blast (3") marker with its hole entirely over the base of the target model, or its hull if the
target is a Vehicle. The hole at the centre of the marker must be within the weapon’s Maximum Range. You
cannot place the Blast marker so that the base or hull of any friendly model is even partially under it.

The large area affected by the blast means it is going to be very hard to miss completely. Nonetheless, the
shot might not land exactly where intended. Roll for the Blast marker to scatter and subtract the firer’s
Ballistic Skill from the distance (if any) that it scatters, to a minimum of 0". Note that it is possible, and
absolutely fine, for a shot to scatter beyond the weapon’s Maximum or Minimum Range and line of sight.
This represents the chance of ricochets, the missile blasting through cover and other random events. In
these cases, Hits are worked out as normal and can hit and Wound units out of range and line of sight (or
even your own units, or models locked in combat). If the shot scatters so that the hole in the centre of the
marker is beyond the battlefield’s edge, the shot is a complete miss and is discarded.

Once the final position of the Blast marker has been determined, take a good look at it from above – each
unit suffers one Hit for each of the models included in that unit that is fully or partially beneath the Blast
marker, even if those models are not within the firer’s line of sight.

Once the number of Hits inflicted on the unit has been worked out, roll To Wound and Save as normal. Note
that, unlike other attacks, Wounds inflicted by an attack with the Blast special rule can be allocated to any
models in the target unit, even if they are out of sight of any models from the attacking unit.

Multiple Blasts
If a unit is firing more than one shot with the Blast special rule, scatter each shot, one at a time, as described
above and determine how many Hits are scored with each individual Blast marker. After the last shot, add
up the total number of Hits scored and roll all of the To Wound rolls as normal.

Blast Weapons and Re-rolls

If a model has the ability to re-roll its rolls To Hit and chooses to do so after firing a Blast weapon, the player
must re-roll both the Scatter dice and the 2D6. Note that this applies only to models able to fully re-roll a To
Hit roll, not to models that may re-roll To Hit rolls of a specific value – for example, models that can re-roll To
Hit rolls of a ‘1’ cannot re-roll either the Scatter dice or 2D6 unless another rule allows them to do so.

Blast Weapons and Snap Shots

Blast weapons cannot be fired as Snap Shots.

Large Blast
Large Blast weapons use the 5" Blast marker, but otherwise obey all the rules for Blast weapons.

Massive Blast
Massive Blast weapons use the 7" Blast marker, but otherwise obey all the rules for Blast weapons.

Apocalyptic Blast
Apocalyptic Blast weapons use the 10" Blast marker, but otherwise obey all the rules for Blast weapons.

Apocalyptic Mega-blast (5"/7"/10")

Apocalyptic Mega-blast weapons use the Apocalyptic Blast marker. They obey the rules for Blast weapons,
with the following exceptions:

Apocalyptic Mega-blast weapons have three Strength values and three AP values. Correspondingly, the
Apocalyptic Blast marker is divided into three zones, as shown in the diagram on the next page, one for
each Strength and AP value.

The Strength and AP of any Hits depends on the zone in which the target model is located. The first
Strength and AP value are used for the inner zone, the second Strength and AP value are used for the
middle zone, and the third Strength and AP value are used for the outer zone. Always use the best Strength
and AP if a model straddles two or more zones. If a unit has models in several zones, work out the Hits
inflicted for each zone separately. Note that there will be a different Wound Pool for each zone.

To determine whether a unit wounded by an Apocalyptic Mega-blast weapon is allowed a Cover Save, and
when determining Wound allocation, always assume the shot is coming from the centre of the Apocalyptic
Blast marker, instead of from the firing model.

Hits from Apocalyptic Mega-blast weapons made against Vehicles are always resolved against their Side
Armour Value. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p234)
Breaching (4+): When rolling To Wound for a model that has the Breaching (X) special rule, or is attacking
with a weapon that has the Breaching (X) special rule, for each To Wound roll equal to or higher than the
value listed in brackets, the controlling player must resolve these wounds at AP 2 instead of the weapon’s
normal AP value. This rule has no effect on models that do not have Wounds, such as models with the
Vehicle Unit Type.

For example, a model with the Breaching (5+) special rule that rolls To Wound and rolls a result of ‘5’ or
higher, the Wound inflicted gains an AP of ‘2’ regardless of the AP value listed on the weapon’s profile. Note
that a weapon that has both the Breaching (X) and the Gets Hot special rules always uses the base AP of
the weapon when rolls of ‘1’ To Hit inflict Wounds on the attacking model. (Both Astartes Army Books p117)
Breaching (6+): When rolling To Wound for a model that has the Breaching (X) special rule, or is attacking
with a weapon that has the Breaching (X) special rule, for each To Wound roll equal to or higher than the
value listed in brackets, the controlling player must resolve these wounds at AP 2 instead of the weapon’s
normal AP value. This rule has no effect on models that do not have Wounds, such as models with the
Vehicle Unit Type.

For example, a model with the Breaching (5+) special rule that rolls To Wound and rolls a result of ‘5’ or
higher, the Wound inflicted gains an AP of ‘2’ regardless of the AP value listed on the weapon’s profile. Note
that a weapon that has both the Breaching (X) and the Gets Hot special rules always uses the base AP of
the weapon when rolls of ‘1’ To Hit inflict Wounds on the attacking model. (Both Astartes Army Books p117)
Brutal (3): When a model is allocated a Wound inflicted by a weapon with this special rule, it does not suffer
only one Wound but instead a number of Wounds equal to the number in brackets associated with the
specific varient of this special rule, with all of the Wounds inflicted using the same AP and special rules as
that of the initial Wound. Roll to save against each Wound inflicted separately, but note that Wounds do not
spill over to other models and are lost. This special rule has no effect on models that do not hae a
Toughness value. (Both Astartes Army Books p117)
Bulky (2): Bulky models count as a number of models equal to the value X in brackets after the rule’s name
for the purposes of Transport Capacity and whether a given unit outnumbers another in combat.

For example, a unit comprised of five odels all of which have the Bulky (3) special rule, would count as 15
models when attempting to Embark on a Transport Vehicle or when deciding if they outnumber an enemy
unit. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p236)
Chosen Warriors: A model with this special rule may issue and accept Challenges as if it had the Character
type. Note that this does not allow a model with this special rule to use any other special rules associated
with the Character type. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p236)
Counter-Attack (1): If a unit contains at least one model with this special rule, and that unit is Charged,
every model with the Counterattack special rule gains a number of additional Attacks equal to the value in
brackets listed as part of this special rule. If no value is listed then the unit gains +1 Attack.
If, when Charged, the unit was already locked in combat or has made the Hold the Line Reaction, the
Counterattack special rule has no effect. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook
p236)
Detonation: A weapon with this special rule may only be used to attack models of the Vehicle, Dreadnought
or Automata Unit Types, any model with a Movement Characteristic of 0 or ‘-’, or Buildings or Fortifications.
Furthermore, a model that is chosen to attack with a weapon with this special rule during the Assault phase
may only make a single attack in the Fight sub-phase, regardless of its Attacks Characteristic and any bonus
attacks from Charging or other special rules. (Both Astartes Army Books p118)
Dreadnought Talon: When deployed onto the battlefield (either at the start of the battle or when arriving
from Reserves), all models with this special rule in a unit must be placed within unit coherency, but
afterwards operate independently and are not treated as a unit. (Both Astartes Army Books p118)
Dreadnought Unit-type: • Successful Wounds scored by attacks with the Poisoned or Fleshbane special
rules must be re-rolled against models of the Dreadnought Unit Type.
• All Dreadnought models have the Fearless special rule.
• A model with the Dreadnought Unit Type may fire all weapons they are equipped with in each Shooting
Attack they make, including as part of a Reaction.
• A model of the Dreadnought type may fire Heavy and Ordnance weapons and counts as Stationary even if
it moved in the preceding Movement phase, and may declare Charges as normal regardless of any Shooting
Attacks made in the same turn.
• No model that is not also of the Dreadnought Unit Type may join a unit that includes a Dreadnought model.
(Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p195)
Exoshock (6+): If this weapon successfully scores a Penetrating Hit on a target, roll a D6. If the result of
that roll is equal to or higher than the value in brackets after the rule, a second automatic Penetrating Hit is
inflicted on the same target against which Cover Saves may not be taken. For example, a weapon with the
Exoshock (4+) special rule would inflict a second Penetrating Hit on the score of a 4+. This second
Penetrating Hit does not gain the effects of any other special rules, and cannot trigger additional Hits.

If, for any reason, a given instance of this rule does not have a value in brackets after the special rule,
assume the value is 6+. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p237)
Expanded Army Lists: Some events/group choose not to allow official rules in "Legacies of The Age of
Darkness" download pdf (which are not playtest). This option is included to make it easier for users for those
events/groups. ()
Fast Vehicles: When a Fast Vehicle moves, other than to pivot in place, it is always considered to have
moved at Combat Speed regardless of how many inches it moves, unless it chooses to move Flat-out.
In addition, when a Fast Vehicle moves, it may choose to move at Flat-out: ()
Fearless: Units with one or more models with the Fearless special rule automatically pass Pinning tests.
Regroup tests and Morale checks.In addition, models with the Fearless special rule ignore the effects of the
Fear special rule.

However, units containing one or more models with the Fearless special rule cannot use any Reactions that
grant a Cover Save, Armour Save or Invulnerable Save, and cannot choose to fail a Morale check due to the
Our Weapons Are Useless special rule (see page 188). If a unit has become Pinned and then gains the
Fearless special rule,all the effects of being Pinned are immediately cancelled. (Warhammer: The Horus
Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p238)
Flat Out: Flat-out - A Vehicle choosing to move Flat-out may move up to twice its Movement Characteristic,
but at the end of its move must roll a single D6. If the result of this roll is a ‘1’ then the Vehicle suffers a
Glancing Hit and all the effects of the Crew Stunned result on the Vehicle Damage table. Vehicles moving at
Flat-out speed may only fire Snap Shots. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook
p214)
Furious Charge (1): In a turn in which a model with this special rule Charges into combat, it adds a bonus
to its Strength Characteristic until the end of the Assault phase.The bonus added to the model's Strength is
equal to the value in brackets after the special rule, for example a model with FuriousCharge (2) adds a
bonus of +2 to its Strength.
A model that has made a Disordered Charge that turn receives no benefit from Furious Charge (sec page
182). (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p239)
God-Engine: A model with this special rule ignores all Psychic Powers and Cybertheurgic Rites and Attacks
made by Psychic and Cybertheurgic Weapons. In addition, a model with this special rule ignores the effects
of the Haywire and Disruption (X) special rules. In all cases, weapons which benefit from these special rules
must attempt to damage a model with this special rule normally using the attack’s Strength value. In
addition, all friendly Mechanicum units with at least one model within 24" of a model with this special rule
gain the Fearless special rule. (Liber Mechanicum - Forces of the Omnissiah Army Book p104)
Grenades: Grenades are represented in battle as Wargear items with a specific effect rather than as
weapons. Using grenades does not count as a Shooting Attack and their effects are entirely covered by the
rules presented here. Note that grenade launchers do not use these rules and are Shooting Weapons
governed by the standard Shooting rules. (Both Astartes Army Books p142)
Heavy Sub-type: • A unit that includes only models with the Heavy subtype may re-roll failed Armour Saves
against Template and Blast weapons.
• A unit that includes any models with the Heavy subtype may not Run and when making a Movement during
a Reaction based on its Initiative Characteristic, reduces the distance moved by -1. (Warhammer: The Horus
Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p197)
Independent Character: Independent Characters can join other units. They cannot, however, join units that
contain Vehicles, Dreadnoughts, Automata or any model with the Monstrous sub-type (unless the
Independent Character also has that Unit Type or sub-type). They can join other Independent Characters
though to form a powerful multicharacter unit.

Joining and Leaving a Unit

An Independent Character can begin the game already with a unit, either by being deployed in unit
coherency with it or, if the unit is in Reserve, by you informing your opponent which unit it has joined.

In order to join a unit, an Independent Character simply has to move so that they are within unit coherency
distance of a friendly unit at the end of their Movement phase. If the Independent Character is within unit
coherency of more than one unit at the end of its Movement phase, the player must declare which unit it is
joining. If an Independent Character does not intend to, or cannot, join a unit, it must, where possible,
remain outside of unit coherency with that unit at the end of the Movement phase. This is to make clear
whether they have joined a unit or not. Note that after an Independent Character joins a unit, that unit can
Move no further that Movement phase.
An Independent Character can leave a unit during the Movement phase by moving out of unit coherency
with it. They cannot join or leave during any other Phase – once shots are fired or Charges are declared.

An Independent Character cannot leave a unit while either they or the unit are in Reserve, locked in combat,
Falling Back or have been Pinned. They cannot join a unit that is in Reserve, locked in combat or Falling
Back. If an Independent Character joins a unit, and all other models in that unit are killed, they again
become a unit of one model at the start of the following Phase. While an Independent Character is part of a
unit, they count as part of the unit for all rules purposes, though they still follow the rules for Characters.

Special Rules
When an Independent Character joins a unit, it might have different special rules from those of the unit.
Unless specified in the rule itself (as in the Stubborn special rule), the unit’s special rules are not conferred
upon the Independent Character, and the Independent Character’s special rules are not conferred upon the
unit. Special rules that are conferred to the unit only apply for as long as the Independent Character is with
them.

Independent Characters and Infiltrate

An Independent Character without the Infiltrate special rule cannot join a unit of Infiltrators during
deployment, and vice versa.

Independent Characters and Ongoing Effects

Sometimes, a unit that an Independent Character has joined will be the target of a beneficial or harmful
effect, such as those bestowed by the Blind special rule, for example. If the Independent Character leaves
the unit, both the Independent Character and the unit continue to be affected by the effect, so you’ll need to
mark the Independent Character accordingly.

Conversely, if an Independent Character joins a unit after that unit has been the target of an ongoing effect
(or joins a unit after they themselves have been the target of an ongoing effect), benefits and penalties from
that effect are not shared. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p241)
Inexorable: A unit that contains only models with this special rule ignores modifiers to Leadership when
making a Morale check or Pinning test - except those caused by the Fear (X) special rule or the Corrupted
and Anathema Sub-types. If a unit has both the Fearless and Inexorable special rules, it uses the rules for
Fearless instead of Inexorable. (Both Astartes Army Books p121)
Instant Death: If a model suffers an unsaved Wound from an attack with this special rule, it is reduced to 0
Wounds and is removed as a casualty. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p242)
Legiones Astartes (Sons of Horus): Merciless Fighters: During a turn in which a unit made up entirely of
models with the Legiones Astartes (Sons of Horus) special rule successfully charges, or are successfully
Charged, the Strength of all Melee attacks made against any model in that unit that does not have the
Vehicle unit type suffer a modifier of -1. Models with the Vehicle Unit type and this special rule instead inflict
an additional 3 Hits (for a total of 1D6+3 Hits, or 2D6+3 if the Vehicle has the Super-heavy Sub-type) on
unitscomposed of models that do not have the vehicle Unit Type when conducting a Ramming Attack. (Liber
Hereticus – Traitor Legiones Astartes Army Book p280)
LoW (where are they?) THIS ENTRY CAN BE REMOVED FROM YOUR ROSTER WITHOUT ISSUE: To
add Lords of War you now need to add the additional detachment to your list. To do this:

A - On Mobile, after adding your initial detachment, press the + sign at the bottom left
B - On Desktop after adding your first force then just press add force again
Then choose the army you wish to have a lord of war from, then pick "Lord of War Detachment". This allows
the choice of any LoW from any army as per the rules of HH2 (apart from the new Ruinstorm Deamons one
can only be taken in a Lord of War Detachment for Ruinstorm Daemons).
THIS IS A TEMPORARY NOTIFICATION THAT WILL BE REMOVED IN A FEW MONTHS WHEN
HOPEFULLY EVERYONE WILL BE USED TO WHERE THE NEW LOCATION IS, AND I DON’T GET 100S
OF BUG REPORTS FROM PEOPLE NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND THEIR LOW ()
Master of the Legion: The Master of the Legion special rule grants the following benefits:
• Rites of War: If a Detachment with the Legiones Astartes Faction includes at least one model with the
Master of the Legion special rule then that Detachment may select a single Rite of War. Rites of War are
presented in the Appendix: Legiones Astartes Rites of War, found on page 96.
• The Few and the Proud: An army may only include a maximum of one model with this special rule per
1,000 points. This counts across all Detachments of an army. Thus, an army that totals at least 1,000 points
may include only a single model with the Master of the Legion special rule, and an army that includes at
least 2,000 points may include up to two models with the Master of the Legion special rule, etc.
• Retinue: A model with this special rule may also include a Legion Command Squad, Legion Cataphractii
Command Squad or Legion Tartaros Command Squad as part of the same Force Organisation slot as the
model with the Master of the Legion special rule. The full rules for doing so can be found in the Appendix:
Legiones Astartes Special Rules on page 124. (Both Astartes Army Books p19 and 123)
Night Vision: A unit that contains at least one model with this special rule ignores the effects of Night
Fighting (see page 308) and no model may make Shrouded rolls to negate Wounds inflicted by their attacks.
(Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p243)
One Use/One Shot: A weapon or ability with this special rule can only be used once during the course of a
battle. Once a weapon with the One Use or One Shot special rule has been used to attack, it is no longer
counted as a weapon and may not be destroyed (for example, by rolls on the Vehicle Damage table) or
repaired by any other rule or effect. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p243)
Ordnance: When making Shooting Attacks, a model equipped with an Ordnance weapon fires the number
of times indicated in its profile after its Type. A non-Cehicle model carrying an Ordnance weapon cannon
attack with it in the Shooting phase if they moved in the preceding Movement phase. Ordnance weapons
cannot make Snap Shots. Futhermore if a non-Vehicle model attacks with an Ordnance weapon, that model
may not make any further Shooting Attacks with any other weapon in the Phase nor will it be able to Charge
in the ensuing Assault phase. Vehicle models that fire Ordnance weapons may also suffer some restrictions
based upon th distance they have moved that turn.
Ordnance weapons hit with such force that when you roll to penetrate a Vehicle's armour with an Ordnance
weapon, roll two dice instead of one and pick the highest result. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of
Darkness Rulebook p177)
Pinning: If a non-Vehicle unit suffers one or more unsaved Wounds from a weapon with the Pinning special
rule, it must take a Leadership test once the firing unit has finished its Shooting Attacks for that Phase. This
is called a Pinning test. If the unit fails the Test, it is Pinned. As long as the Test is passed, a unit can be
called upon to take multiple Pinning tests in a single turn, but only once for each unit shooting at them.

A unit that is affected by any of the following conditions does not take Pinning tests, and if called upon to do
so is considered to automatically pass them:
• The unit is locked in combat.
• The unit is already Pinned (the unit remains Pinned, but takes no further Tests).
• The unit is composed entirely of Vehicle models.
• The unit is Embarked on a Transport Vehicle.
• The target unit is affected by the Fearless special rule.

A unit that has become Pinned cannot Move, Run or Charge. It can only fire Snap Shots if it attacks during
the Shooting phase and cannot make Reactions in any Phase. At the end of its following turn, the unit
returns to normal and the unit is free to act as normal from then on. Whilst it is Pinned, a unit is affected
normally by enemy actions (for example, it takes Morale checks as normal). If the unit is forced to move, for
example if it has to Fall Back, it returns to normal immediately. If assaulted, the unit will fight as usual, but
because they are not set to receive the Charge, enemy units do not receive the Initiative penalty for
assaulting a unit in Difficult Terrain (sec page 222), even if the unit is in Difficult Terrain. If a unit becomes
Pinned during a Charge, then that Charge automatically fails. Units that are locked in combat cannot be
Pinned and do not take Pinning tests. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p244)
Power of the Machine Spirit: A Vehicle with this special rule may attack different targets with each Ranged
weapon it is permitted to fire during any Shooting Attack. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of
Darkness Rulebook p244)
Precision Shots (6+): If a model with this special rule, or attacking with a weapon with this special rule, rolls
equal to or higher than the value in brackets when making a To Hit roll as part of a Shooting Attack, that shot
is a ‘Precision Shot’. For example, if a model with the Precision Shots (4+) special rule rolls a 4 or higher
when making a To Hit roll, then that attack is a Precision Shot.
Wounds from Precision Shots are allocated against a model (or models) of the attacking player’s choice in
the target unit, as long as the target model is in range and line of sight of the attacking model, rather than
following the normal rules for Wound allocation.
Note that Snap Shots and shots from weapons that scatter, or do not roll To Hit, can never be Precision
Shots. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p244)
Precision Strikes (6+): If a model with this special rule, or attacking with a weapon with this special rule,
rolls equal to or higher than the value in brackets when making a To Hit roll as part of a melee attack, that hit
is a ‘Precision Strike’. For example, if a model with the Precision Strikes (4+) special rule rolls a 4 or higher
when making a To Hit roll, then that attack is a Precision Strike.
Wounds from Precision Strikes are allocated against a model (or models) of the attacking player’s choice in
the target unit, as long as that model is engaged in combat with the attacking model’s unit, rather than
following the normal rules for Wound allocation. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness
Rulebook p245)
Reactor Meltdown (Magna): When a model with this special rule is destroyed, the damage caused by its
Catastrophic Damage is altered depending on the value of (X) in the version of this special rule as follows:
Magna: When destroyed, a model with this special rule resolves Hits caused by Catastrophic Damage as
Destroyer attacks.
Major: When destroyed, a model with this special rule resolves Hits caused by Catastrophic Damage as
Destroyer attacks at AP2.
Maxima :When destroyed, a model with this special rule resolves Hits caused by Catastrophic Damage as
Destroyer attacks at AP2, and doubles the range of the Catastrophic Damage effect. (Liber Mechanicum -
Forces of the Omnissiah Army Book p108)
Reactor Overload: A weapon with this special rule may double the number of shots it makes, but if it does
so the firing model suffers D3 Wounds or Hull Points of damage with no Saves or Damage Mitigation rolls of
any kind allowed. (Liber Mechanicum - Forces of the Omnissiah Army Book p106)
Reinforced Sub-type: • A model with the Reinforced Sub-type ignores the effects of any Crew Shaken
result on the Vehicle Damage table
• A model with the Reinforced Sub=type does not have to make Snap Shots due to the effects of the Crew
Stunned result on the Vehicle Damaage table (but still cannot move or pivot until the end of its next turn).
(Liber Astartes – Loyalist Legiones Astartes Army Book p95)
Relentless: Relentless models can shoot with Heavy or Ordnance weapons, counting as Stationary, even if
they moved in the previous Movement phase. They are also allowed to Charge in the same turn they fire
Heavy, Ordnance, or Rapid Fire weapons. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook
p245)
Rending (5+): If a model has the Rending special rule, or is attacking with a Melee weapon that has the
Rending special rule, there is a chance that their close combat attacks will strike a critical blow. For each To
Wound roll equal to or higher than the value listed, the target automatically suffers a Wound, regardless of
its Toughness. The controlling player may choose to resolve these Wounds at AP 2 instead of the weapon’s
normal AP value.
Similarly, if a model makes a Shooting Attack with a weapon that has the Rending special rule, a To Wound
roll of equal to or greater than the listed value wounds automatically, regardless of Toughness, and is
resolved at AP 2.
In either case, against Vehicles each Armour Penetration roll of equal to or greater than the listed value
allows a further D3 to be rolled, with the result added to the total Strength of the attack. These Hits are not
resolved at AP 2, but are instead resolved using the weapon’s AP value.
For example, a model with the Rending (5+) special rule that rolls To Wound against a non-Vehicle model
will wound automatically on the roll of a 5+, and the attacking player has the choice of using an AP value of
2 instead of the AP value of their weapon. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook
p246)
Shell Shock (1): Pinning tests taken due to an attack or weapon with this special rule are made with a
penalty to Leadership Characteristic equal to the value listed as part of the special rule.

For example, a unit that is forced to take a Pinning test by an attack made using a weapon with the Shell
Shock (2) special rule, suffers a penalty of -2 to their Leadership Characteristic when resolving that Test.
(Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p246)
Shred: If a model has the Shred special rule, or is attacking with a Melee weapon that has the Shred rule, it
re-rolls failed To Wound rolls in close combat.

Similarly, if a model makes a Shooting Attack with a weapon that has the Shred rule, it re-rolls its failed To
Wound rolls. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p246)
Specialist Weapon: A model fighting with this weapon does not receive +1 Attack for fighting with two
weapons unless it is armed with two or more Melee weapons with the Specialist Weapon rule. The
additional weapon does not have to be the same weapon as the one used to attack, but it must have the
Specialist Weapon rule in order to grant an additional Attack for fighting with two weapons. (Warhammer:
The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p247)
Stubborn: When a unit that contains at least one model with this special rule takes Morale checks or
Pinning tests, the unit ignore any negative Leadership modifiers. If a unit is both Fearless and Stubborn, the
unit uses the rules for Fearless instead. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p248)
Sunder: Attacks with this special rule may re-roll failed Armour Penetration rolls against Vehicles and
Buildings (both with Shooting Attacks and in close combat) and re-roll Glancing Hits, in an attempt to instead
get a Penetrating Hit, but the second result must be kept. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of
Darkness Rulebook p247)
Twin-linked: When attacking with a weapon that has this special rule, the controlling player may re-roll all
failed To Hit rolls.

Twin-linked Blast Weapons

If the Scatter dice does not roll a Hit, you can choose to re-roll the dice when making a Shooting Attack with
a Twin-linked Blast weapon. If you choose to do so, you must re-roll both the 2D6 and the Scatter dice.

Twin-linked Template Weapons

Twin-linked Template weapons are fired just like a single weapon, but must re-roll failed To Wound rolls and
Armour Penetration rolls. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness Rulebook p249)
Unwieldy: A model attacking with this weapon Piles-in and fights at Initiative step 1, unless it has the
Dreadnought Unit Type or Monstrous sub-type. (Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness
Rulebook p249)
Void Shields (2): A model with this special rule has a number of void shields, as listed on its profile.
Shooting Attacks which Hit a model with this special rule instead target this model’s void shields while at
least one remains active. Void shields have an Armour Value of 12. A successful Glancing Hit, Penetrating
Hit or any successful Hit from a Destroyer weapon which targets a void shield causes it to collapse, reducing
the number ‘X’ by -1. When the number of void shields is reduced to 0, this special rule has no further effect
and subsequent Shooting Attacks target the model instead. Void shields have no effect on close combat
attacks, and may not be affected by close combat attacks. (Both Astartes Army Books p127)
