Master-crafted Weapon

10 pts

Those who command the Ravenwing on their hunts are often honoured with a masterwork blade, mace or other deadly close-quarters weapon. Such implements are fashioned by the Chapter’s artificers and weighted perfectly to be wielded from the saddle of a speeding armoured steed.

RAVENWING* model only. Melee weapons equipped by the bearer have the [PRECISION] ability.

Mounted Strategist

30 pts

This warrior has mastered the art of such advanced ploys as feigning flight only to turn swiftly upon overextended foes and launch a devastating counter-offensive to shatter their lines.

RAVENWING* model only. You can re-roll Advance and Charge rolls made for the bearer’s unit.

Master of Manoeuvre

15 pts

Daring and audacious, this commander favours breakneck outflanking manoeuvres that allow them to plunge into the enemy’s midst from unexpected quarters.

Ravenwing* model only. If the bearer’s unit starts the battle in Strategic Reserves, its points value does not count towards the combined points limit for units from your army that are in Strategic Reserve, and for the purposes of setting up that unit on the battlefield, treat the current battle round number as being one higher than it actually is.

Recon Hunter

20 pts

This commander is an expert scout as well as hunter, and takes advantage of these skills to seize the most advantageous position before battle begins.

RAVENWING* model only. Models in the bearer’s unit have the Scouts 9" ability.
