Detachment Rule

Worthy Foes

With a command transmitted by regal carrier wave, signalled by a glowing glyph or via a haughty gesture with their blade, the ruling nobles mark their chosen enemy. With this declaration are the Triarchal Codes observed, and the ignorant foe doomed. The nobles’ powerful servants and the Triarch’s guardians of tradition march to war obediently, driven to best the mightiest of foes on the battlefield as a demonstration of the dynasty’s honour and a warning to the rest of their enemies’ foolish kind.

In your Command phase, select one enemy unit. Until the start of your next Command phase, each time a Noble, Lychguard or Triarch unit from your army makes an attack that targets that unit, add 1 to the Wound roll.
