You may include Captain Cortez in a Crimson Fists army. If you decide to take him then he counts as one of the HQ choices for the army. He must be used exactly as described below, and may not be given any additional equipment. He can only be used in a battle where both players have agreed to the use of special characters.
Wargear: Bolt pistol, power fist and purity seals.
Special Rules
Stubborn: Captain Cortez instills a sense of stubborn pride in his men. Ignore the first failed Fall Back test made by a unit in the army. This also applies to things that normally cause a unit to fall back automatically. Note that this ability can only be used once per battle, and must be used the first time a unit has to fall back.
Invulnerable: Cortez carries on fighting no matter what, ignoring wounds that would normally stop even a Space Marine. He is treated as being invulnerable, which means that even if a hit normally ignores all armour saves, Cortez still gets to try and make his saving throw as normal.
Independent Character: Unless accompanied by a Command squad, Cortez is an independent character and follows all the independent character special rules as detailed in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook.
Command Squad: Cortez may be accompanied by a Command squad, see the special entry in the army list. Note that Cortez & his Command squad count as a single HQ choice.
