Stormcast Eternals – Neave Blacktalon
7" 6 3+ 2 Neave Blacktalon is Sigmar’s foremost assassin. With the winds aetheric swirling at her feet, she can move with such speed that she appears to have teleported, sinking her axes into an enemy’s neck and darting away before they can react. Having beaten back the forces of Nurgle time and time again, Neave’s accolades across Aqshy and Ghyran have seen her ascend into legend. | ||

15.3 Pile-in Moves
Some abilities, such as FIGHT abilities, allow a unit to make a short move called a pile-in move to get into a better position for combat. To do so:If your unit is in combat: Pick an enemy unit your unit is in combat with to be the target of the pile-in move. Each model in your unit can move up to 3". That move can pass through the combat ranges of any enemy units, but each model must end that move no further from the target unit. At the end of the move, your unit must still be in combat with all units that it was in combat with at the start of the move.
If your unit is not in combat: Each model in your unit can move 3" in any direction. That move can pass through and end within the combat ranges of any enemy units.
