Clan Eshin
Warband size
A Clan Eshin warband may consist of up to 20 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 floor 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 special rules:
[Trait] Strength in Numbers
When this fighter makes an attack action, if the target is flanked, this fighter’s weapons gain the Piercing 1 weapon rule.
[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.
