Armoured CeramiteA vehicle with armoured ceramite is not subject to the additional D6

armour penetration caused by weapons with the Melta special rule.

Explorator Augury WebWhile the Proteus is on the table, at the start of any of the owning

player’s turns, before any Reserve rolls are made, they may declare

that the Proteus’ augurs are being used in either Disruption or Relay

modes, their effect lasting until the start of the next player turn.

• Disruption Mode: The opposing force suffers -1 to their Reserve

rolls.

• Relay Mode: The owning player’s Reserve rolls may be re-rolled

(whether failed or successful!) if they wish.

In addition, enemy units using the Infiltrate special rule to deploy may

not be placed within 24" of a Land Raider Proteus which itself has

already been deployed (this has no other effect on the deployment of

enemy units).

A Land Raider Proteus is an Elites choice in a Codex Space Marines,

Chaos Space Marines², Codex Black Templars, Codex Space Wolves,

Codex Blood Angels¹ or Codex Dark Angels army.

¹Note that in a Codex Blood Angels army, the Land Raider Proteus

may not Deep Strike as other Blood Angels Land Raiders may.

²When included in a Codex Chaos Space Marine army, the Land

Raider Proteus has a reduced points cost of 215, and does not have

the Power of the Machine Spirit special rule.
