  Errata-Unit-Advance (2023-12-07)

	Question: When something triggers because an "advancing enemy model that ends their movement" is within a given distance something, and the enemy model advancing is part of a unit, does the trigger only affect the moving model, or does it also affect the troopers that are placed?
	Answer: Only the model moved counts for triggering when something advances into an area.
	Explanation: We are aware of the situation. Currently looking at what the wording of the feats should be as well as the bigger question at hand here. For now it would be just the models that actually moved, not were placed. This is just for these right now amd not looking at other aspects of unit movement. When there is any update for wording i will post. As stated until we have a wording update this ruling is applying here. So for now just the model that was actually moved and not the ones placed will be affected.

Release Trivia

Announcement Blurb

Containment Operatives are a 3-model unit armed with long-range alchemical projectors, which can fire three different types of alchemical cannisters via their Attack Types. Some of these Attack Types are purely offensive, such as their Weaponized Psychotropic attack, while others are meant to be beneficial to friendly models. The Hull Tincture attack, for example, does no damage but instead heals all friendly Faction constructs within in its AOE.

The Containment Operatives are a versatile unit that works well with a wide variety of army types, though they particularly appreciate warcasters who can supplement their ranged attacks, such as Marshal General Baldwin Gearhart."

Lore

"The Crucible Guard contains many brilliant scientists and alchemists, all segregated into various research orders or combat cells based on their areas of expertise. Combat alchemists, for example, are those individuals with a skill not just in alchemy but in its battlefield application. Often they will sneak onto the battlefield themselves, where they can test all manner of strange brews on the enemy.

Some combat alchemists prefer scientific observation from afar, as it is much more likely you’ll live long enough to record and study your data tomorrow. These cautious types are equipped with long-range alchemical projectors—tubelike weapons that use gas propellant to fire cannisters of chemicals deep into enemy ranks. As long as the alchemist’s aim is true, the results are not only fascinating but occur at a distance that promotes a long life of continued study and alchemical application.
