Gryphonne IV Skitarii Legion Army List
Forces
The Gryphonne IV Skitarii Legion Army List uses the datasheets from the Skitarii Legion Forces section.
Using The Army List
The following army list allows you to field an Adeptus Mechanicus army that is based on an Gryphonne IV Skitarii Legion. It can also be used as a stand in
army list for other Skitarii Legions as well.
Gryphonne IV Skitarii Legion formations come in three types: demi-century, ordinatus and support formations. Each demi-century you include in the army allows you to field any one ordinatus formation and any two support formations. Although you can only take an ordinatus or support formation if you first take a demi-century, they are treated as separate independent formations during a battle and do not have to move around together.
In addition, demi-centuries may be given up to three upgrades. Each type of upgrade can only be taken once by a company. Upgrades are added to the company and are not a separate formation. Ordinatus and support formations may not be given company upgrades (although Ordinatus Minorus formations must be given Battle Titan Weapon Upgrades). Each upgrade that is taken adds to the cost of the demi-century, as shown on the upgrade chart.
Gryphonne IV Skitarii Legion Adeptus Mechanicus armies may be supported by Mechanicus allies. A maximum of up to a third of the points available to the army may be spent on these formations. In addition, certain Mechanicus ally formations may be given Titan upgrades. Which Titan upgrades a formation may be given are listed in the upgrades
column. Titan upgrades are added to the formation and are not a separate formation. Each Titan upgrade that is taken adds to the cost of the formation, as shown on the Titan upgrade chart.
Gryphonne IV Skitarii Legion Epic Tournament Special Rules
All Weapon Mounts in a Mechanicus ally formation or on an Ordinatus Minorus unit must be mounted with a weapon. Ordinatus Minorus Weapon Mounts must be Battle Titan Weapons; and pay surcharges of an additional +50 points for a Carapace Landing Pad and +25 points for a Quake Cannon.

Automaton
A formation does not receive a Blast marker when a unit with automaton is destroyed, this includes the extra Blast marker from the first casualty of a crossfire and for units destroyed for being out of formation after a move. Automaton units hit by a weapon with disrupt do take a Blast marker however.
If a hit is inflicted on an automaton unit because it is in a broken formation which is receiving a Blast marker (see Blast Markers and Broken Formations) then it may attempt to save normally.
Automaton units killed in an assault count for the purposes of working out its result (see Work Out Result).
Weapon Mount
Weapon Mounts are areas on a unit that may be fitted with weapon systems. When a weapon mount is mounted with a weapon (a character
unit) it gains all the abilities and special rules of the weapon while retaining any of its own. A weapon mount may only be mounted with one weapon.
Imperial Void Shields
Imperial Titans are protected by void shield generators. The number of void shields each Titan has is noted on the Titan’s datasheet.
Each void shield will automatically stop one point of damage and then go down. Do not make armour saves for damage stopped by void shields, nor allocate Blast markers. Once all of the shields have been knocked down, the Titan may be damaged normally and you may make saving throws against any hits that are scored. Hits from close combat ignore void shields but units using their firefight values must first knock down any shields before they can damage the Titan.
Void shields that have been knocked down can be repaired. Each Titan can repair one downed void shield in the end phase of each turn. In addition, if a Titan regroups it can use the dice roll to either repair the void shield or remove Blast markers (e.g., if you rolled a 2 you could repair 2 shields, remove 2 Blast markers or repair 1 shield and remove 1 Blast marker).
