Detachment Rule
Optimal Application
With advanced engineering knowledge and cogitational expertise, a hearthfyre arsenal’s specialists can apply the resources and information seized by the Kin to eradicate their foes efficiently. Such assets are used to coordinate the devastating fire patterns of the force’s support infantry, empowering already heavily armed Kin to the extent that little can escape their murderous fusillades.
At the end of your Command phase, you gain 1YP for each objective marker you control that is not within your deployment zone and has one or more Iron-master and/or Memnyr Strategist models from your army within range of it (to a maximum of 2YP gained from this Detachment rule per turn).
In your Shooting phase, each time a Brôkhyr, Ironkin Steeljacks or Arkanyst Evaluator unit from your army is selected to shoot, you can spend 1YP. If you do, until the end of the phase, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, re-roll a Hit roll of 1.
