Special Rules
Schism
Schism lets a unit spend Host tokens to improve a weapon's attacks, Force or Range for an attack. Each token uses a D3 roll to determine the size of the improvement.
How Schism works
When using a melee or ranged weapon, you may spend a Host token to roll 1D3 and add the result to either the weapon’s RoF/Att or its Force, OR double the result and add to the weapon’s Range.
You cannot spend more Host tokens than there are models in the unit during a single activation, and you cannot stack multiple tokens on the same weapon for one attack.
> Example: Spending a Host token yields a 1D3 roll. You roll a 2. You could add +2 to the weapon’s RoF, or +2 Force, or +4″ Range for that attack. A unit of 3 models could spend up to 3 tokens on different weapons in one activation.
