Special Rules
Fearless: Wraithguard are not living creatures and are therefore not affected by emotions such as dread and urges of self-preservation. A Wraithguard unit never falls back and cannot be pinned. Even attacks which normally cause the enemy to automatically fall back have no effect on Wraithguard. If a character joins the Wraithguard, then he also becomes fearless.
Wraithsight: Wraithguard do not see the world as mortals do, but instead witness an ever-shifting image of spirits, which makes them slow to react to changes on the battlefield. At the start of every Eldar turn, roll a D6 for each Wraithguard unit that is not led by a Farseer or Warlock. On a roll of a 1, the Wraithguard may do nothing that turn.
Errata — Chapter Approved: Codex: Eldar Q&A (v2.0): Firing a wraithcannon at a skimmer that moved more than 6" that turn can never score a penetrating hit — all such hits are treated as glancing only, the same as any other weapon against a fast-moving skimmer.
