Weapons powered by unstable and dangerous energy sources pose a substantial risk to the wielder every time they are used.
Weapons with [HAZARDOUS] in their profile are known as Hazardous weapons. Each time a unit is selected to shoot or fight, after that unit has resolved all of its attacks, for each Hazardous weapon that targets were selected for when resolving those attacks, that unit must take one Hazardous test. To do so, roll one D6: on a 1, that test is failed. For each failed test you must resolve the following sequence (resolve each failed test one at a time):Some attacks are so powerful that no armour or force field can withstand their fury.
Some rules inflict mortal wounds on units. Each time mortal wounds are inflicted on a unit, each of those mortal wounds inflicts one point of damage to that unit, and they are always applied one at a time. Each mortal wound is allocated to a model in the same manner as allocating an attack. Excess damage from mortal wounds is not lost if the damage can be allocated to another model. Instead, keep allocating damage to another model in the target unit until either all the damage has been allocated or the target unit is destroyed.From detonating ammo stores to corrosive innards or frenzied death throes, some targets are deadly even in defeat.
Some models have ‘Deadly Demise x’ listed in their abilities. When such a model is destroyed, roll one D6 before removing it from play (if such a model is a TRANSPORT, roll before any embarked models disembark). On a 6, each unit within 6" of that model suffers a number of mortal wounds denoted by ‘x’ (if this is a random number, roll separately for each unit within 6").Mighty heroes fight at the forefront of battle.
Some CHARACTER units have ‘Leader’ listed on their datasheets. Such CHARACTER units are known as Leaders, and the units they can lead – known as their Bodyguard units – are listed on their datasheet.Assassins and other covert agents are difficult to track and pinpoint in the swirling maelstrom of battle.
Unless part of an Attached unit (see Leader), this unit can only be selected as the target of a ranged attack if the attacking model is within 12".The Thousand Sons are wreathed in the energies of the Warp. It is the gift of their sorcerous leaders to channel this power through battlefield ritual, to divine forbidden knowledge, to weave illusory magicks or to ravage their foes with empyric fire and mutation.
If your Army Faction is , at the start of your Shooting phase, one or more models from your army with this ability can attempt Rituals from those listed below. To do so, select one model from your army with this ability that has not yet attempted a Ritual this turn and select one Ritual no model from your army has manifested this turn, then take a Psychic test for that model by following the sequence below.

DESTINY’S RUIN (PSYCHIC) WARP CHARGE 5 |
TEMPORAL SURGE (PSYCHIC) WARP CHARGE 6 |
DOOMBOLT (PSYCHIC) WARP CHARGE 7 |
TWIST OF FATE (PSYCHIC) WARP CHARGE 9 |
High-explosives can fell several warriors in a single blast, but firing them where your comrades will get caught in the ensuing detonation is simply unwise.
Weapons with [BLAST] in their profile are known as Blast weapons, and they make a random number of attacks. Each time you determine how many attacks are made with a Blast weapon, add 1 to the result for every five models that were in the target unit when you selected it as the target (rounding down). Blast weapons can never be used to make attacks against a unit that is within Engagement Range of one or more units from the attacking model’s army (including its own unit).Rapid fire weapons are capable of long-ranged precision shots or controlled bursts at nearby targets.
Weapons with [RAPID FIRE X] in their profile are known as Rapid Fire weapons. Each time such a weapon targets a unit within half that weapon’s range, the Attacks characteristic of that weapon is increased by the amount denoted by ‘x’.Certain weapons are the bane of a particular foe.
Weapons with [ANTI-KEYWORD X+] in their profile are known as Anti weapons. Each time an attack is made with such a weapon against a target with the keyword after the word ‘Anti-’, an unmodified Wound roll of ‘x+’ scores a Critical Wound.The VEHICLE keyword is used in the following Thousand Sons datasheets:
The SMOKE keyword is used in the following Thousand Sons datasheets:

The SCINTILLATING LEGIONS keyword is used in the following Thousand Sons datasheets:
Some units make their way to battle via tunnelling, teleportation, high-altitude descent or other extraordinary means that allow them to appear suddenly in the thick of the fighting.
During the Declare Battle Formations step, if every model in a unit has this ability, you can set it up in Reserves instead of setting it up on the battlefield. If you do, in the Reinforcements step of one of your Movement phases you can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" horizontally away from all enemy models. If a unit with the Deep Strike ability arrives from Strategic Reserves, the controlling player can choose for that unit to be set up either using the rules for Strategic Reserves or using the Deep Strike ability.Shattered ruins and twisted wreckage afford much-needed shelter from enemy salvoes. Even heavily armoured warriors unfazed by small arms fire are thankful for such cover when foes bring their biggest guns to bear.
Models can sometimes gain a measure of protection from terrain features. The rules below detail the conditions under which a terrain feature confers the Benefit of Cover on a model.Some warriors are masters of disguise and concealment.
If every model in a unit has this ability, then each time a ranged attack is made against it, subtract 1 from that attack’s Hit roll.Some warriors refuse to be laid low, even by what should be fatal wounds.
Some models have ‘Feel No Pain x+’ listed in their abilities. Each time a model with this ability suffers damage and so would lose a wound (including wounds lost due to mortal wounds), roll one D6: if the result is greater than or equal to the number denoted by ‘x’, that wound is ignored and is not lost. If a model has more than one Feel No Pain ability, you can only use one of those abilities each time that model suffers damage and so would lose a wound.With each site seized by the thrallband’s warriors, the flow of arcane energies increases, and the veil between reality and the Warp erodes. The resultant influxes of Warp energy are potent enough to invoke the flesh-change and must be channelled carefully by the thrallband’s Sorcerers. With masterful skill, they wield these mutagenic energies, expertly syphoning excess magic to empower themselves and the warriors at their command while maintaining control of their ever-expanding ritual.
Certain areas of the battlefield are within your army’s Flow of Magic, as follows:For an instant, the chanting voices of the Thousand Sons achieve eerie synchronisation. Their words of malign incantation roll out like the peal of some cursed bell amidst the Empyrean to signal the onset of the next fateful tide of ritual power.
In your Command phase, you can select one of the abilities listed below to take effect until the start of your next Command phase. You can only select each of these abilities once per battle.Imbued Manifestation Add 6" to the Range characteristic of ranged Psychic weapons equipped by models from your army. |
Psychic Maelstrom Each time a model from your army makes an attack with a Psychic weapon, add 1 to the Wound roll. |
Wrath of the Immaterium Psychic weapons equipped by models from your army have the [devastating wounds] ability. |
The SCINTILLATING LEGIONS and PSYKER keywords are used in the following Thousand Sons datasheets:
The otherworldly auras of Tzeentch’s daemons and the empowering arcane sigil carried by his mortal servants wear away at the fragile skein of reality.
SCINTILLATING LEGIONS units from your army have the following the ability:To the Sorcerers of Warpforged Cabals, logic cores and data-wafers, plasma cells and advanced augurs are merely matter, as subservient to their will as flesh and spirit is to others. They infuse dangerous eldritch protocols into the war engines under their command, pouring raw Warp magic into shell casings or capturing malevolent sprites within targeting cogitators, magnifying their vehicles’power. Such battle tanks and combat walkers seem to throb with barely contained sorcery, and their greater danger is apparent to those with empyric senses.
Each time a VEHICLE unit from your army is selected to shoot or fight, apply one of the following when resolving those attacks:
