Transport: The Battle Barge may carry ten models and an Independent Character (for a total of 11 models).

SPECIAL RULES

Eldar Field:  The Battle Barge is equipped with an Eldar field, giving it a 4+ save against any damage.  Make the roll as soon as damage is determined; if the save is made, no damage occurs.

Landing Skids:  The Battle Barge is equipped with retractable landing gear, allowing it to set down on a level surface.  The Battle Barge may opt to set down at the beginning of the Movement phase, although it must remain stationary for the whole turn.  It no longer counts as a Skimmer and therefore ignores all the Skimmer special rules (it is no longer destroyed on an immobilized damage result, it can be hit as a normal vehicle in close combat, etc.) until the beginning of its next Movement phase.  The Battle Barge may not land in difficult or impassable terrain.  Note that if it is immobilized while set down, it cannot take flight again and must remain stationary where it was immobilized for the rest of the game.
