Warband size
A Clan Eshin warband may consist of up to 15 fighters
Faction rules
[Faction Trait] Black-clad Killers
When setting up a battle, you may decide to split your warband into four search parties instead of three. The fighters in the fourth search party are hidden and kept in reserve – even if the deployment map doesn't feature reserve search parties.
In the second or third battle round, when it is your turn to activate a fighter, you may reveal and activate a hidden fighter instead. Set up the fighter on the battlefield more than 6" from enemy fighters and more than 3" from objective markers and wyrdstone tokens. During that fighter's activation, enemy fighters cannot make reactions.
In addition, all CLAN ESHIN fighters have the following abilities:
[Double] Murder-Stab
For this fighter’s next melee attack action, add (X/2) to the damage points allocated to the target by each critical hit. In addition, if this fighter was revealed this battle round, you may reduce the target’s Fight characteristic by 3 for that attack action (to a minimum of 1).
[Double] Slink Away
A fighter can only use this ability if they are within 1" of an enemy fighter. This fighter makes a free Retreat action.
