Special Forces Rampart Squad
Space Marine Special Forces Rampart Squad ................... 425 Points
Space Marine Ramparts are Heavily armoured, slow moving defensive troops, highly useful for holding key positions deep in enemy territory. Their armour is even more protective than regular Terminator Armour, and they are trained to hold their ground even in the face of death, terror and damnation.
Squad consists of 5 Space Marine Ramparts equipped with Rampart Suits, Storm Bolters and Power Swords. Any number of models may upgrade their Storm Bolter to a Plasma Blaster for +5 points each. Up to one model may replace his Storm Bolter with an Assault Cannon for +40 points or a Heavy Flamer for +20 points. The entire Squad may be teleported into battle for +50% of the total cost. The entire squad may be mounted in a Rhino for 50 points. The Rhino counts as part of the Squad for point allocation. The Rhino may be upgraded with auto-launchers and vehicle cards as normal.

Space Marine. As Space Marines, Ramparts are subject to the Rapid Fire and Shaken special rules as described in various Codices.
Conditioned. Space Marine Ramparts are genetically conditioned to make them even tougher and harder to kill than a normal Space Marine. They are devoutly loyal to their mission and never falter in their task. To represent this, they are given an extra wound and their toughness is increased by +1. However, all of that natural resilience tends to weigh them down, reducing their movement by -1. They also undergo Psychological conditioning which increases their Leadership by +1. All of these enhancements are accounted for in the profile above.
Rampart Suit. The Rampart Suit consists of a suit of Terminator Armour, enhanced with extra Armour Plates (2+ save on 2D6), a Targeter and a Defender Scanner System.
Defender Scanner System. The DSS is a higly specialized scanner that automatically detects any hidden models within 10" of the model carrying it. It also adds a +1 To Hit Modifier for Overwatch Shots and negates all To Hit modifiers for rapid Movement.
