Detachment Rule
Purge-Sweep Protocols
Tempestus Scions are drilled to progress through voidships chamber by chamber, corridor by corridor, clearing each with blitzing firepower before sweeping on to the next.
Each time a MiLiTARUM TEMPESTUS unit from your army is selected to shoot, if one or more models in that unit are within 1" of an open Hatchway and every model in that unit is on the same side of that Hatchway, select one enemy unit on the opposite side of that Hatchway from that unit. Until the end of the phase, ranged weapons equipped by models in that unit have the [LETHAL HiTS] ability while targeting that enemy unit.
