Caiman Mentors
(Rule)Description: Caiman Mentors may be added to the unit. Caiman Mentors use the unit profile of the models stated in brackets (X). In addition, they follow the rules for Matching Bases (see Front Rank) and gain Fight in Extra Rank and Stand Behind.
Caiman Mentors count as Characters for the purpose of distributing hits. They are not forced to choose the same Close Combat Weapons as other R&F models in the unit. Excess Health Point losses never transfer between Caiman Mentors and other Health Pools.
Instead of allocating Close Combat Attacks as usual, R&F models can allocate Close Combat Attacks towards any non-Champion R&F model in a unit withCaiman Mentors , even when they are not in base contact. Attacks allocated against Caiman Mentors that are not in base contact with the attacker, including attacks from Swirling Melee but excluding Supporting Attacks that could normally be allocated towards Caiman Mentors , suffer -1 to hit.
