Guardsmen Squad (Emperor's Shroud)

"To each and every one of you falls a task. We are the Hammer of His will, the bane of His foes, the flak-armored legion of His light made manifest! Ahead of us lies the foul heretics of the Lost Legion! Do not be fooled, men! These are not your brothers and sisters, these are dirty men and women who have strayed from His light, never to return again. Now, forward! FOR THE EMPEROR!"

- Lieutenant John Thorne, third day of fighting on Klendatthu Primus.

Abilities: Killing Field: If a Guardsman squad overwatches, they hit their weapons on a 5+ rather than a 6+.

Judicial Execution: If this unit fails its morale test and its Commissar is alive, you may choose to let the squad's Commissar execute a cowardly soldier. Slay one model in the unit, it is not counted as a casualty and must not be the Commissar themself, and the unit immediately passes its morale test.

Medical Supplies: Once per turn after a phase where at least one model in the unit has been slain, if the medic model in this unit is still alive, they can enact medical treatment. Roll a D6 for each model slain in the turn, on a 4+, that many models are brought back to the unit alive.

Helmet Vox-Link: When an OFFICER unit uses their Voice of Command ability to issue an order and is within 3" of this unit's Sergeant model, the order's range is increased to 18 inches.
