FACTION Power from Pain

Rapid Deployment (Pain): When you pick this model to Advance in your Movement phase, you may spend 1 Pain token to Empower it. While Empowered, units may disembark from this model after it Advances. Such units count as having made a Normal move that phase and cannot declare a charge that turn, but may otherwise act normally for the rest of the turn.
Aerialists: At the end of the Fight phase, if no models are embarked in this TRANSPORT, you may choose one friendly Drukhari Infantry unit of 6 or fewer models that is wholly within 6" of it (it cannot Fly). Unless that unit is within Engagement Range of an enemy unit, it may embark within this TRANSPORT.

TRANSPORT

This model has a transport capacity of 6 Drukhari Infantry models (excluding Jump Pack models).

Before the battle, at the start of the Declare Battle Formations step, you can select one Kabalite Warriors, Hand of the Archon or Wyches unit from your army that has not already been split. If you do, that unit is split into two units, each containing as equal a number of models as possible (when splitting a unit in this way, make a note of which models form each of the two new units]. One of these units must start the battle embarked within this model; the other can start the battle embarked within another TRANSPORT, or it can be deployed as a separate unit.
