Meet the Novitiate Kill Team! Command 10 faithful operatives with incredible versatility. Fueled by Acts of Faith, spend Faith points to reroll dice, upgrade successes, or turn failures into hits. They're a flexible force with specialists for every role - from melee powerhouses like the Penitent to flamer-wielding Purgatus. Average speed and durability, but their faith mechanics make them incredibly adaptable. Play them aggressively with ploys like Righteous Advance and Blessed Rejuvenation to push objectives and outlast opponents!
