FORMATION: One Baneblade must be designated as the command tank.


3+ Baneblades

SPECIAL RULES:
Combined Fire: Should a shot from any of the company’s Baneblade cannons cause an enemy to roll on the catastrophic damage
table, the roll is modified by +1 for each of the company’s Baneblade cannon shots that hit it.

The Ground Shakes: Any enemy wishing to assault any of the company’s Baneblades must take a Morale check, at -1 for each
Baneblade within 12” of the command tank. If they fail, they may not assault that turn.

Strike Force: All Baneblades in the Steel Fury company must be deployed within 12” of the command tank, or, if coming on from
reserve, they must enter the table within 12” of the point entered by the command tank.

Command tank: Whilst the command tank is still mobile, any tank in the company within 12” of it (including the command tank
itself) may ignore Gun Crew Shaken results on the super-heavy damage table.
