Requirements: You must control a manufactorum.

Requirements: You must control a command bastion.

Requirements: You must control a shield generator.

Effect: Pick one of the Troops units in your army list. An identical unit starts in reserve, but will not be available to enter play until Turn 3 (i.e. don’t roll to see if it arrives before Turn 3, and ignore any special rules that say it may be deployed earlier than this).

Effect: You may bring up to half of your reserves (rounding up) into play on the first game turn. If special rules allow you to bring in reserves on Turn 1 then these are in addition to those allowed by this card.

Effect: All your units receive a 5+ cover save during the enemy’s first Shooting phase.
