War Platform
(Rule)Description: Unless selected as a mount for a Character , a model with War Platform gains Character with the following exceptions:
• It does not count towards theCharacters Army Category (for Army List creation).
• It does not count asCharacter when Deploying Units (it may still be deployed inside units) .
• It cannot issueDuels , accept Duels , or Make Way .
• It can performSwirling Melee .
• It does not count asCharacter regarding Bodyguard and Multiple Wounds , unless the War Platform is specifically mentioned in the Bodyguard rule.
The model can joinunits , and having Exclusive (Chariot ) does not prevent it from joining units without Chariot . Additionally, it does not prevent Characters without Exclusive (Chariot ) from joining a unit containing a model with War Platform and Chariot . When joined to a unit, it must always be placed in the centre of the first rank, possibly pushing back other models with Front Rank , and must keep its position in the centre of the first rank at all times, including during casualty removal (as long as it is joined to the unit). Should the model ever be forced to leave its position in the centre of the first rank, immediately redistribute models in the unit until the model is back in the centre of the first rank, following the priority order in 16.B.e Illegal Formation after Removing Models . If two positions are equally central (e.g. in a unit with an even number of models in the first rank and a War Platform replacing an uneven number of models per rank), the War Platform can be placed in either of these positions. If the War Platform cannot be placed in the centre of the the first rank, the model cannot join the unit. A War Platform with Mismatching Base can never join a unit, and only a single War Platform can be in the same unit unless specifically stated otherwise.
