Additional Rules

Minefield

You have five Minefield markers for the battle. On the reverse side, three of them are HY-Pex mines (see below) and two are blank. Set up all your Minefield markers as if they were one item of equipment. Each must be set up reverse-side down (their specifics aren’t revealed), more than 2" from other markers, access points and Accessible terrain, and more than 6" from your opponent’s drop zone and your other Minefield markers. Whenever this operative is readied, if it’s not within control range of enemy operatives, you can reset one of your flipped Minefield markers that’s within its control range (flip the marker back over again).

HY-Pex Mines

Whenever one of your reverse-side down Minefield markers is both within an enemy operative’s control range and not within a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative’s control range, flip the marker over. If it’s a blank, there’s no effect. If it’s a HY-Pex mine, inflict 3 damage on that enemy operative and roll one D6: if the result is less than that enemy operative’s Save stat, inflict additional damage on it equal to the dice result; regardless of the result, if it isn’t incapacitated, end its action (if any), even if that action’s effects aren’t fulfilled. If it cannot be placed, move it the minimum amount to do so. Regardless, that marker isn’t removed.

Faction Rules

RESOURCEFUL

Faction Rule

Gain Resourceful points based on friendly operatives not near enemies each turn.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Hernkyn Yaegirs are self-sufficiency specialists. They are also skilled warriors who, usually unsupported, embark upon missions equipped for countless contingencies. This allows them to adapt to hazardous environments and enemy actions with decisive speed.

In the Ready step of each Strategy phase after the first, you gain Resourceful points determined by the number of friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operatives in the killzone that aren’t within control range of enemy operatives. At the end of each turning point, discard your Resourceful points. OPERATIVES RESOURCEFUL POINTS 6+ 2 3-5 1 0-2 0

DAUNTLESS EXPLORERS

Faction Rule

Strategic Gambit: Operatives in drop zone can Reposition within 4" of it.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

The first of their Kindred to set foot on new worlds, Yaegirs are frequently deployed for extended periods and are experts in swiftly evaluating and exploiting their area of operations.

STRATEGIC GAMBIT in the first turning point. Each friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative wholly within your drop zone can immediately perform a free Reposition action. Each that does so must end that move wholly within 4" of your drop zone.

Strategy Ploys

4 ploys

HIDDEN ENGAGEMENT

Strategy Ploy

Gain Balanced when shooting from cover.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Being experienced survivalists, Hernkyn Yaegirs are skilled hunters, well used to stalking and engaging their prey from the shadows.

Whenever a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative is shooting, if it’s in cover from the target’s perspective, that friendly operative’s weapons have the Balanced weapon rule. Note that your opponent still determines the targeting lines for this (i.e. they decide which point of their operative’s base targeting lines are drawn from).

MASTERFUL BLADEWORK

Strategy Ploy

+1 Atk and Balanced or Ceaseless in melee.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Yaegirs are extensively trained in the use of plasma knives and other close combat weapons, wielding them with ruthless precision.

Whenever a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative is fighting, or has a Conceal order and is retaliating, add 1 to the Atk stat of its melee weapons (to a maximum of 4) and they have the Balanced weapon rule; if the weapon already has that weapon rule, it has the Ceaseless weapon rule instead of Balanced.

TOUGH SURVIVALISTS

Strategy Ploy

Halve first damage each turning point.

IN POSITION

Strategy Ploy

Cannot be targeted when concealed in cover.

Firefight Ploys

4 ploys

STURDY

Firefight Ploy

Change critical successes to normal successes

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Stocky and stalwart, Hernkyn Yaegirs grit their teeth and shrug off wounds that would fell other species.

Use this firefight ploy when an operative is shooting a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative, when you collect your defence dice. Change the attacker’s retained critical successes to normal successes (any weapon rules they’ve already resolved aren’t affected, e.g. Piercing Crits).

BONDS THAT BIND

Firefight Ploy

Activate another operative when first is expended

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Squads of Hernkyn Yaegirs are exceptionally close-knit and operate with instinctive coordination.

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative is activated. Select one other ready friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative visible to and within 3" of that operative. When that first friendly operative is expended, you can activate that other friendly operative before your opponent activates. When that other operative is expended, your opponent then activates as normal. Neither operative can be a BOMBAST operative if its Wroughtlock Negotiation STRATEGIC GAMBIT has been used this turning point.

NO KIN LEFT BEHIND

Firefight Ploy

Retain fails as successes or successes as criticals

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

All Kin desire to return to their Hold’s Ancestor Core upon their death. Hernkyn will fight tooth and nail to ensure that none of their fallen are left behind.

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative is incapacitated. Before that operative is removed from the killzone, remove your Fallen Kin marker from the killzone (if any), then place it within that operative’s control range. That operative is then removed from the killzone as normal. Whenever a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative within 3" of your Fallen Kin marker is shooting, fighting or retaliating, in the Roll Attack Dice step, you can retain one of your fails as a normal success instead of discarding it, or retain one of your normal successes as a critical success instead.

STALWART DEFENCE

Firefight Ploy

Free Shoot action against nearby enemy

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

The Kin are steadfast and determined in defence. They maintain accurate and punishing fire even as their enemies close in.

Use this firefight ploy when an enemy operative ends a move within control range of a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative. Select one other friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative visible to and within 6" of that friendly operative, but that isn’t itself within control range of enemy operatives. The selected operative can perform a free Shoot action. During that action: - It can target that enemy operative even though it’s within control range of a friendly operative. - You cannot select any other enemy operative as a valid target. - You cannot select a frag or krak grenade, or a weapon with the Blast or x" Devastating x weapon rule (i.e. Devastating with a distance).

PLASMA KNIVES

Faction Equipment

Melee weapon with Lethal 5+ rule.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

The superheated edge of a plasma knife can slice through several inches of solid metal. Armour and bone are no match for such a cutting edge.

Friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operatives have the following melee weapon. Note that some operatives already have this weapon but with better stats; in that instance, use the better version, and that weapon has the Balanced weapon rule for the battle.

STABILISED BOLT SHELLS

Faction Equipment

Twice per turn, improve bolt shotgun hit and damage.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Fitted with fin stabilisers, these specially crafted bolt shells are designed to enhance accuracy and lethality at extreme range.

Up to twice per turning point, whenever a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative is performing the Shoot action and you select a bolt shotgun (long range), you can use this rule. If you do, until the end of that action, improve the Hit stat of that weapon by 1 and add 1 to both of its Dmg stats.

FIRESTORM BOLT SHELLS

Faction Equipment

Once per turn, bolt shotgun gains Blast 1" rule.

KV-CERAMIDE UNDERSUIT

Faction Equipment

Reroll one defence die vs Blast/Torrent; ignore Devastating range.

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Hernkyn Yaegirs ordinarily wear only light armour. These thin but resilient semi-ceramic undersuits provide the wearer with an additional layer of protection.

Whenever an operative is shooting a friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operative, if the ranged weapon in that sequence has the Blast or Torrent weapon rule, you can re-roll one of your defence dice. In addition, friendly HERNKYN YAEGIR operatives aren’t affected by the x" Devastating x weapon rule (i.e. Devastating with a distance) unless they are the target during that sequence.

Universal Equipment

10 items

AMMO CACHE

Universal Equipment

RAZOR WIRE

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Spooled rapidly out and affixed to jutting posts, razor wire acts as an easily deployed barrier and a painful deterrent to enemy operatives seeking to attack along particular routes.

Razor wire is Exposed and Obstructing terrain. Before the battle, you can set it up wholly within your territory, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points and Accessible terrain. Obstructing: Whenever an operative would cross over this terrain feature within 1" of it, treat the distance as an additional 1".

COMMS DEVICE

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Communications devices can be swiftly hijacked and employed to coordinate operations or call in support during a firefight.

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Comms Device markers wholly within your territory. While a friendly operative controls this marker, add 3" to the distance requirements of its SUPPORT rules that refer to friendly operatives (e.g. ‘select one friendly operative within 6"’ would be 9" instead). Note that you cannot benefit from your opponent’s Comms Device markers.

MINES

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

The battlefields of the 41st Millennium are plagued by myriad types of mine, from simple frag charges to monofilament web‑snares and microplasma charges. Ultimately, all serve a similar, horrible purpose.

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Mines markers wholly within your territory and more than 2" from other markers, access points and Accessible terrain. The first time that marker is within an operative’s control range, remove that marker and inflict D3+3 damage on that operative.

LIGHT BARRICADES

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Designed to be lugged into place and then deployed by operatives and combat engineers, these barriers are proof against small arms fire.

Light barricades are Light terrain, except the feet, which are Insignificant and Exposed. Before the battle, you can set up any of them wholly within your territory, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points and Accessible terrain.

HEAVY BARRICADE

Universal Equipment

LADDERS

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Carried into battle in their compacted forms, these ladders provide a rapid route of ingress to strongholds, or access to vital vantage points.

Ladders are Exposed terrain. Before the battle, you can set up any of them as follows: - Wholly within your territory. - Upright against terrain that’s at least 2" tall. - More than 2" from other equipment terrain features. - More than 1" from doors and access points. In addition, an operative can either move through ladders as if they aren’t there (but cannot finish on them), or climb them. Once per action, whenever an operative is climbing this terrain feature, treat the vertical distance as 1". Note that if an operative then continues climbing another terrain feature during that action (including another ladder), that distance is determined as normal.

UTILITY GRENADES

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

From neuro‑suppressant psybombs to smoke‑belching chemical charges, grenades of this sort can suppress the enemy and be the difference between life and death.

When you select this equipment, select two utility grenades (2 smoke, 2 stun, or 1 smoke and 1 stun). Each selection is a unique action your operatives can perform, but your kill team can only perform that action a total number of times during the battle equal to your selection.

EXPLOSIVE GRENADES

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

A variety of offensive grenades are employed by the forces of the 41st Millennium. These range from simple fragmentation grenades to plasma and gravitic concussion grenades, while even more exotic devices are used to crack open enemy armour.

When you select this equipment, select two explosive grenades (2 frag, 2 krak, or 1 frag and 1 krak). Each selection is a ranged weapon your operatives can use, but your kill team can only use that weapon a total number of times during the battle equal to your selection.

PORTABLE BARRICADE

Universal Equipment

HERNKYN YAEGIRS 💀

Little more than a suppression shield with armoured feet, these barricades can be hefted and borne forwards to provide mobile cover.

A portable barricade is Light, Protective and Portable terrain. Before the battle, you can set it up wholly within your territory, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points and Accessible terrain. Protective: While an operative is in cover from this terrain feature, improve its Save stat by 1 (to a maximum of 2+). Portable: This terrain feature only provides cover while an operative is connected to it and if the shield is intervening (ignore its feet). Operatives connected to the inside of it can perform the following unique action during the battle.
