The Path to War: Battle Report - Eldar vs. Imperial Fists & Legion of the Damned (Updated from Chapter Approved in White Dwarf 228)

LEGION OF THE DAMNED

There are tales of the Legion of the Damned from all across the galaxy. Just who they are and where their true loyalty lies, is a matter of much speculation. Some even doubt they exist at all, but the heaps of corpses left in the wake of their awesome, implacable advance cannot be disputed.

SPECIAL RULES

Apparitions: The Legion of the Damned appear from nowhere, completely unheralded. In every battle they use the special Deep Strike deployment rules, even if the mission does not normally allow troops to Deep Strike. However, you roll for the Legion of the Damned on the FIRST turn, rather than the second.

Fearless: It is debatable whether the Legion of the Damned are truly alive and have real minds. Legion of the Damned automatically pass any Leadership-based tests, including Morale Checks, that they are required to make.

Terrifying: Any unit which loses an assault whilst fighting the Legion of the Damned suffers an additional -1 modifier to its Leadership for the subsequent Morale Check.
