Gilded Champion
Any Phase - Strategic Ploy
Target

That ADEPTUS CUSTODES CHARACTER model.

When

Any phase, just after an ADEPTUS CUSTODES CHARACTER model from your army has used an ability on its datasheet that states it can only be used ‘once per battle’.

Effect

Your model can use that ‘once per battle’ ability one additional time during the battle (but not in the same phase).

Restriction

You cannot use this Stratagem on the same ADEPTUS CUSTODES CHARACTER model more than once per battle.

Defiant To The Last
Fight Phase - Strategic Ploy
Target

One ADEPTUS CUSTODES unit from your army that was selected as the target of one or more of the attacking unit’s attacks.

When

Fight phase, just after an enemy unit has selected its targets.

Effect

Until the end of the phase, each time a model in your unit is destroyed, if that model has not fought this phase, roll one D6, adding 2 to the result if that model has the CHARACTER keyword. On a 4+, do not remove it from play; the destroyed model can fight after the attacking unit has finished making its attacks (when doing so, it is treated as having 1 wound remaining), and is then removed from play.
