Composition

1 Chaplain

Weapons

Pistol or none as depicted on the models.

Special Rules

• Inspiring Presence: Upon receiving his order die (except for Down), a chaplain may select one friendly unit within 6" and roll a D6, applying the following modifiers: Inexperienced -1, Veteran +1. On a 4+, the chaplain may remove 1 pin from the selected unit.
• Non-Combatant: The chaplain is there to support the soldiers, not win battles. A chaplain unit cannot be used to claim or contest objectives.
• Self-Defence Only: Clergymen are not soldiers and will not take part in hostile actions - they cannot fire any weapon, nor assault enemy units. However, there is anecdotal evidence of several examples of chaplains who broke regulations to carry a pistol for self-defence only; German chaplains were even issued with a pistol. If your chaplain is equipped with a pistol, it can only be used in close quarters if the enemy assaults him (including firing it at the assaulting enemies as a reaction, if applicable).

Special Rules

• Sniper Detachment Fire: On a Fire order, decide whether all models in the unit will fire their weapons normally, or the unit will use its sniper rifles. If you decide on the latter course, only the sniper rifle armed models can fire. They must target the same enemy unit, and declare the models they are targeting before firing is resolved. This can be the same model or two separate models in the target unit.

Composition

1 NCO and 2 soldiers

Weapons

Sniper Rifles

Special Rules

• Master and Zaichata: One sniper is the master sniper, and the other two are the zaichata in training. The master sniper should be differentiated in some way, and acts as an NCO. If the master sniper is killed, the quality of the squad drops to inexperienced as the two zaichata no longer have veteran guidance to rely upon (in addition to the normal morale penalty for losing the NCO). However, should both zaichata be removed from play and only the master sniper remains, his quality will upgrade to veteran.
• Team Spotting: On a Fire order, you decide who will fire: the master sniper or the zaichata. The other acts as a spotter and may not fire. If the zaichata fire they must target the same enemy unit, and declare the models they are targeting before firing is resolved. This can be the same model or two separate models in the target unit.
