Special Rules

Sanguinius' Chosen: A Sanguinary High Priest is seen as favoured by Sanguinius. Any Blood Angels nearby will try to outdo each other in their acts of devotion and bravery. Any Blood Angels model within 6" of a Sanguinary High Priest may re-roll any missed 'to hit' rolls in the same turn that they charge into close combat. If the Blood Angels are charged, or are in a second or subsequent round of close combat, this has no effect.

Independent Character: Unless accompanied by an Honour Guard, a Sanguinary High Priest is an independent character and follows all the Independent Character special rules as given in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook.

Honour Guard: The Sanguinary High Priest may be accompanied by a Blood Angels Honour Guard. Note that the High Priest and his Honour Guard count as a single HQ choice.
