Each time a DEATH GUARD unit from your army makes a Consolidation move:
- It can move up to D3+3" instead of up to 3".
- If it cannot end that move within Engagement Range of one or more enemy units that are visible to it (and in Unit Coherency), it can still make that Consolidation move, and when doing so can move in any direction.
