Rules Commentary

3 Q&As

If a friendly operative attempts to shoot or fight against the specified enemy operative in the Execution Order firefight ploy, but is prevented from doing so by an opponent's rule (e.g. SANCTIFIER CONFESSOR Commanding Declamation, NOVITIATE Blinding Aura), is that friendly operative's activation still cancelled?

No. Continue its activation as though the requirements of the Execution Order firefight ploy have been fulfilled.

When using the Guilt Reveals Itself strategy ploy, if my opponent has a rule that says it cannot be selected as a valid target, taking precedence over all other rules except being within 2" (e.g. HERNKYN YAEGIR In Position), does this increase the 2" distance exception to 4"?

Yes.

My LEASHMASTER and R-VR CYBER-MASTIFF operatives are activating simultaneously as a result of the Handler rule. Can I use the Brutal Backup firefight ploy to select one of those operatives that has already performed a Fight action during that activation to fight again?

No.

Whenever an enemy operative is within 3" of your Nuncio-aquila marker (or this operative if your Nuncio-aquila marker isn't in the killzone), your opponent must spend 1 additional AP for that enemy operative to perform the Pick Up Marker and mission actions. Whenever determining control of a marker, treat the total APL stat of enemy operatives that contest it as 1 lower if at least one of those enemy operatives is within 3" of your Nuncio-aquila marker (or this operative if your Nuncio-aquila marker isn't in the killzone).

The first time during each turning point that another friendly Exaction Squad operative would be incapacitated while visible to and within 3" of this operative, you can use this rule, providing neither this nor that operative is within control range of an enemy operative. If you do, that friendly operative isn't incapacitated, has 1 wound remaining and cannot be incapacitated for the remainder of the action. After that action, that friendly operative can immediately perform a free Dash action, but must end that move within this operative's control range. Subtract 1 from this and that operative's APL stats until the end of their next activations respectively, and if this rule was used during that friendly operative's activation, that activation ends. You cannot use this rule if this operative is incapacitated, or if it's a Shoot action and this operative would be a primary or secondary target.

Faction Rules

3 rules

Ruthless Efficiency

Faction Rule

Shoot without friendly operatives blocking targets; limits on operative duplicates.

Exaction Squad 💀

A target, whether marked to be apprehended or eliminated, stands little chance of escaping the attention of an Adeptus Arbites Exaction Squad.

Whenever a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative is shooting (excluding with frag or krak grenades) and you're selecting a valid target, you can use this rule. If you do, having other friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operatives within an enemy operative's control range doesn't prevent that enemy operative from being selected. Other than GUNNER, SUBDUCTOR and VIGILANT operatives, your kill team can only include each operative on this list once. Your kill team can only include up to two GUNNER operatives (each must have a different option) and up to four SUBDUCTOR operatives.

Marked for Justice

Faction Rule

Mark enemy for Punishing weapons; can reassign mark if incapacitated.

Exaction Squad 💀

Exaction Squads prioritise their targets, focusing their ire on those marked for immediate punishment before moving on to the next transgressor.

STRATEGIC GAMBIT. Select one enemy operative to be your mark for the turning point. Whenever a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative is shooting against, fighting against or retaliating against your mark, that friendly operative's weapons have the Punishing weapon rule. Whenever your mark is incapacitated, you can select a new enemy operative to be your mark for the turning point (and can continue to do so during this turning point).

Repress

Faction Rule

Blocks negate two successes; defender resolves first attack dice when retaliating.

Exaction Squad 💀

Experienced in suppressing riots, rebellions and various other kinds of unrest, the Adeptus Arbites are resilient in the face of any oncoming foe, no matter their origin.

Some weapons in this team's rules have the Repress weapon rule below. Repress: Whenever this operative is using this weapon: - Each of your blocks can be allocated to block two unresolved successes (instead of one). - If this operative is retaliating, you resolve the first attack dice (i.e. defender instead of attacker).

Strategy Ploys

4 ploys

Guilt Reveals Itself

Strategy Ploy

Enemies within 4" cannot be in cover for targeting.

Exaction Squad 💀

Exaction Squads are relentless in their pursuit of the condemned. Few escape their clutches.

Whenever you're selecting a valid target for a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative, enemy operatives within 4" of it cannot be in cover (instead of 2"). While this can allow such operatives to be targeted (assuming they're visible), it doesn't remove their cover save (if any), unless the friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative is within 2" as normal.

Inviolate Jurisdiction

Strategy Ploy

Reroll one defence dice when shot near objective or enemy.

Dispense Justice

Strategy Ploy

Melee weapons gain Ceaseless if not moved or counteraction.

Terminal Decree

Strategy Ploy

Ranged weapons gain Balanced when shooting close or as Gunner.

Firefight Ploys

4 ploys

Long Arm of the Emperor's Law

Firefight Ploy

add 3 inches to range x

Exact Punishment

Firefight Ploy

free shoot or fight after being attacked

Exaction Squad 💀

To strike against an Arbitrator is an offence punishable by immediate termination.

Use this firefight ploy after an enemy operative shoots against or fights against a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative within 6" of it, and that friendly operative isn't incapacitated as a result. That friendly operative can immediately perform either a free Shoot or a free Fight action, but you cannot select any other enemy operative as a valid target or to fight against during that action (note that secondary targets from the Blast weapon rule can still be targeted).

Brutal Backup

Firefight Ploy

another operative performs free fight

Exaction Squad 💀

When combating the most belligerent of foes, Arbitrators may combine their considerable might to bludgeon the guilty with baton and maul.

Use this firefight ploy during a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative's activation, before or after it performs an action. Select one enemy operative within its control range. One other friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative can immediately perform a free Fight action, but you cannot select any other enemy operative to fight against during that action.

Execution Order

Firefight Ploy

interrupt enemy activation to attack them

Exaction Squad 💀

Those who have earned the ire of the Imperium are marked by the Adeptus Arbites for execution, their termination prioritised.

Use this firefight ploy when an enemy operative performs a mission action (excluding Operate Hatch ). Alternatively, use it at the end of the Firefight phase and select one enemy operative that controls an objective marker. In either case, the next time your opponent would activate that enemy operative, you can interrupt that activation and activate a ready friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative. If you do, during that activation, that friendly operative must shoot against or fight against that enemy operative, and cannot do so against any other enemy operatives until it does (if this isn't possible, that friendly operative's activation is cancelled). After completing that friendly operative's activation, continue that enemy operative's activation (if possible). You cannot use this ploy again until that enemy operative is activated or incapacitated.

Faction Equipment

Reinforced Mirror-Visor

Faction Equipment

Manacles

Faction Equipment

Chance to prevent enemy Fall Back action when alone in control range

Exaction Squad 💀

These adamantine manacles prevent captive subjects from escaping custody.

Whenever an enemy operative would perform the Fall Back action while within control range of a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative, if no other enemy operatives are within that friendly operative's control range, you can use this rule. If you do, roll two D6, or one D6 if that enemy operative has a higher Wounds stat than that friendly operative. If any result is a 4+, that enemy operative cannot perform that action during that activation/counteraction (no AP are spent on it).

Strobing Phosphor-Lumen

Faction Equipment

Enemy cannot reroll attack dice results of 1 within 2"

Special Issue Shells

Faction Equipment

Twice per turning point, grant shotgun weapons special rules

Exaction Squad 💀

Arbites shotguns can be loaded with a wide range of specialist ammunition, including but not limited to incendiary rounds and armour-piercing slugs.

Up to twice per turning point, when a friendly Exaction Squad 💀 operative is performing the Shoot action and you select a combat shotgun, executioner shotgun, scoped shotpistol or shotpistol, you can use this rule. If you do, select one of the following weapon rules for that weapon to have until the end of that action: - Saturate. - Piercing 1, but only if the target has a Save stat of 3+ or better. - Torrent 1", but you cannot select more than one secondary target.
