Special Rules:
| Psychology: | The Director is an implacable foe and is unaffected by the Psychology rules described in the Warhammer 40,000 Rulebook. He is completely immune to Fear, Terror and any other psychological effect, regardless of the source. |
| Leadership: | The Director cannot be broken - he is automatically assumed to pass any break test, or other Leadership-based test, that he is required to make. The Leadership value given is for comparison only. |
| Dodge: | The Director's highly trained refelexes are argumented by the booster checmicals & drugs of his Synskin and enable him to dodge out of danger. To represent this, the Director can avoid the effects of any damaging hits, including psychic attacks on an unmodified D6 roll of 4+. |
| Gas Weapons: | The Director cannot be harmed by weapons in any way that use Choke, Scare, Hallucinogen, Toxin or Virus effects. |
| Vision: | The Director is affected by gas or smoke weapons that normally obscure vision, although he is affected by Blind grenadesand missiles as normal. |
| Infiltration: | The Director may use the rules for Infiltration as described in the Warhammer 40,000 Rulebook. |
| Dead-eye Shot: | If the Director misses, he may re-roll the "to hit" roll. |
| Marksmanship: | The Director: may shoot any target in line-of-sight, ignoring the choosing a target restrictions, can choose hit location on targets with hit location tables. Im addition he increases both long & short range he can fire at by 50%. This means that his Exitus Longrifle has a max. range of 54" and the Exitus Pistol can fire up to 18". |
| Rapid Fire: | As long as the Director remains stationary, he may fire his Exitus Longrifle three times in the shooting phase. This skill may not be used while on Overwatch, nor may it be combined with the Hipshooting skill. |
| Hipshooting: | The Director may make a run move and fire his Exitus Pistol in the same turn. |
| Stealthy: | The Director may run and hide in the same turn. |
| The Director of the Vindicare temple carries a kinfe and, unlike ordinary Assassins, has five Wargear cards. These are the Director's Exitus Weapons, 2 x Exitus Ammo, Camelioline Stealth Suit and Director's Spymask. The Vindicare Director must take all five Wargear cards, he may not swap these Wargear cards for any others, nor may he be equiped with any additional Wargear. This brings the Director's total cost to 395 points. |
| Exitus Weapons are purpose-built for each Vindicare Assassin. They are manufactured as a matching pair of pistol & rifle. The Director's Exitus Weapons uses different high-powered, armor piercing tip ammunition to the usual Vindicare Assassin's ammunition for general purpose executions. It also accepts a variety of special ammunition types for particulary well-protected targets. |
| Range | To Hit |
| Type | Short | Long | Short | Long | Str. | Dam. | Save Mod. | Armor Pen. | Special |
| Longrifle | 0-18 | 18-36 | +1 | +1 | 6 | D3 | -3 | D6 + D3 + 6 | none |
| Pistol | 0-8 | 8-16 | +2 | -1 | 6 | D3 | -3 | D6 + D3 + 6 | Close Combat |
| Special Exitus Ammunition types may only be used with an Exitus Longrifle or Pistol. The Director carries two each of the following rounds. Discard the two Exitus Ammunition cards when all six rounds have been used. |
| Shield-breaker: | If the target is protected by a force field the field is automatically destroyed, if the target has no force field it takes normal damage. |
| Turbo-penetrator: | This has a -6 saving throw modifier and inflicts double damage. When rolling for armor penetration, double the result. |
| Hellfire: | Always wounds on a 2+ against living targets and causes D6 wounds. Has no splash effect. |
| If the Director fires while he is Hiding, he is not spotted - instead flip over the Hidden counter to show that he is only Detected. When enemy troops come within spotting distance or gain a clear line-of-sight while the Director is Hiding he is only spotted. Also, enemy troops attempting to shoot at the Director have a -1 modifier to their to hit roll. |
| Enables the Director to shoot at Hidden models with a -5 to hit modifier or
Detected models with a -2 to hit modifier. These modifers are in addition to any others for cover,
movement, etc.
Also, the Director's Spymask is equiped with a ER targeter & tracking device. If a target is out of cover and moving the Director may ignore the to hit modifier for moving targets. |
