Thousand Sons – Tzaangor Enlightened

1. Select Model: Select one model in that unit by following the first instruction below that applies:
   
   

   If a non-CHARACTER model in that unit has lost one or more wounds, you must select that model. Otherwise, if that unit contains one or more non-CHARACTER models, you must select one of those models. Otherwise, if one or more CHARACTER models in that unit have lost one or more wounds, you must select one of those models. Otherwise, you must select one CHARACTER model in that unit.



2. Resolve Damage: The selected model loses 1 wound. If this reduces that model’s remaining wounds to 0, it is destroyed.

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.

PSYCHIC TEST SEQUENCE Roll 2D6 Channel the Warp (Optional) Then, if one or more doubles or triples were rolled during this test, that model’s unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. If that model is not destroyed, the combined total of all the dice rolled during this test is the Psychic test result. If this equals or exceeds the Warp Charge value of the Ritual being attempted, that model manifests that Ritual and you resolve its effects.

• If the target unit is an attached unit, use the highest T characteristic amongst bodyguard models in that unit that are on the battlefield.
• Use the highest T characteristic amongst models in that unit that are on the battlefield.

1. Create Groups: Divide all models in the target unit into the following groups, as many times as required:
   
   • One group for each CHARACTER model.
   • One group for all other models with the same W, Sv and InSv characteristics.
2. Allocation Order: Declare the order in which those groups will have attacks allocated to them, applying all of the following:
   
   • If a non-CHARACTER group contains a model that has lost one or more wounds, that group must be first in the allocation order.
   • No CHARACTER group can be earlier in the allocation order than a non-CHARACTER group.
   • CHARACTER groups containing a model that has lost one or more wounds must be earlier in the allocation order than CHARACTER groups containing no wounded models.
3. Make Save Rolls: The opposing player makes one save roll for each attack that wounded the target by rolling one D6.

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.

• If that roll succeeds, that unit does not become battle-shocked.
• If that roll fails, that unit, and each model in it, is battle-shocked.

• The Objective Control (OC) characteristic of all of its models is modified to ‘-’ (02.02).
• Its controlling player cannot target that unit with stratagems (15).
• It is not eligible to start an action (16), and any action it has started cannot be completed.

The MUTANT tag is used in the following Thousand Sons detachments:

• Servants of Change
• Warpmeld Pact

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.

• Your deployment zone is always within your army’s Flow of Magic.
• At the start of any phase, if you control at least half of the objective markers within No Man’s Land, until the end of that phase, No Man’s Land is within your army’s Flow of Magic.
• At the start of any phase, if you control at least half of the objective markers within your opponent’s deployment zone, until the end of that phase, your opponent’s deployment zone is within your army’s Flow of Magic.

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.

The Human and mutant thralls of the Thousand Sons seek to earn the favour of their Chaos Space Marine masters by enacting rituals and offering sacrifices in the name of the Lord of Change. Thus do they hurl themselves upon the foe in frothing tides of wild aggression.

The flesh and bone ofTzeentch’s malleable servants flow like molten wax when his mutative power is invoked in ritual pleas. Some, such as the devoted Tzaangors, willingly make such requests, while more mindless abominations have their pact made for them by their callous masters. No boon is without its price, however. Some suffer changes so rapid that they burst apart, are absorbed by heaving mounds that were once allies or reduced to mewling piles of bubbling flesh.

Beneath the multitudinous eyes of so many servants of Tzeentch, reality itself shifts and mutates, leaving the foe exposed to the onrushing mutant masses.

• Friendly TZAANGORS units have BATTLELINE.
• In your Shooting phase, while a friendly MUTANT unit is shooting, enemy units have +6" detection range.
