Scout heroes are the officers of the chapter’s scout
companies. These Marines have made it their lives work to train and fight alongside the
newest recruits. All of this training has allowed these full marines to develop the skills
of the scout and hone them to exceptional heights.
Options: The Force
Recon Commander may be given any equipment allowed from the Force Recon Armory.
| SPECIAL RULES Independent
Character: Unless accompanied by a command squad, a Force Recon Commander is an
independent character and follows the independent character special rules in the Warhammer
40,000 rulebook.
Command Squad: The Commander may be accompanied by a Command
Squad. Note that the Recon Commander and his accompanying squad count as a single HQ
choice.
Infiltrate: In the right circumstances Force Recon Commanders can work their troops into a
forward position on the battlefield. To represent this the Commander and his Command Squad
(if he has one) may set up using the Infiltrators rule. The Commander may be attached to any other infiltrating squad if he is not
accompanied by a Command Squad.
Experienced Infiltrators: If the mission does not allow infiltrators then a Force Recon Commander may
deploy up to two of his Infiltrating units up to 18" onto the board from his
table edge. (remaining no less than 18" from any enemy units) Or may opt to
deploy those same two units last on the board even if the enemy has infiltrators of his
own. Scout Support teams may not be forward deployed except in games that allow infiltrators.
Move Through Cover: Force Recon Commanders roll an extra D6 when rolling to move through difficult
terrain. In most cases this will mean that they roll 3D6 and pick the dice with the
highest score. |
