Knightly Teachings

Each time a model from your army uses its Bondsman ability, if no other model from your army has used that Bondsman ability that turn, you can select up to three friendly ARMIGER models (instead of one) within 12" of that model, or within 15" of that model while your army is Honoured (you still cannot select a model that is already being affected by a Bondsman ability). Until the start of your next Command phase, those models are affected by that Bondsman ability.
