SLICK WITH GORE

Either player’s turn - Fight phase
WHEN: Fight phase, just after an ADEPTA SORORITAS unit from your army destroys an enemy unit.

TARGET: That ADEPTA SORORITAS unit.

EFFECT: Until the end of the battle, your unit is slick with gore. In the Battle-shock step of your opponent's Command phase, if an enemy unit that is below its Starting Strength is within 6" of and visible to a unit from your army that is slick with gore, that enemy unit must take a Battle-shock test. If that enemy unit is also Below Half-strength, subtract 1 from that test. This cannot cause a unit to take two Battle-shock tests in the same phase.

RESTRICTIONS: You cannot use this Stratagem while a unit from your army that is slick with gore is on the battlefield.
