====Tarellian Warlord Traits====

* '''5: Beyond Rage''' - The Warlord has fought his enemies so long that all his rage has dissipated and given way to weariness, he takes no pleasure in the death that surrounds him, and feels no vindication in the slaughter of his once hated enemies, instead fighting with a cold clarity that tells him this is the only way. The Warlord gains the '''Fearless''' USR and does not have to roll for any leadership check, choosing his result as he wishes.

* '''6: Heart of the Desert''' - The Desert is vast and empty, and at its heart is an infinite stillness, only those Tarellian’s who’ve undergone the Rite of Etaine may pass through the Heart of the Desert, and those who come out changed, their eyes focused on the distance, their thoughts strange and alien. If a Warlord with this trait successfully negates a Psychic power with “Deny the Witch” the opposing Psyker takes a number of S:3, AP2, ignores cover hits equal to the number of Warp Charges expended in manifesting the power.

* '''6: Vs the World''' - The Warlord has survived countless expeditions through the harshest of environments, gaining an almost precognitive ability to avoid danger, whether mutant beasts, or hidden anomalies. The Warlord & his unit gain the '''Move Through Cover''' USR.

====Pakasar Warlord Traits====

* '''4: Rip, Roar, Rampage''' - The Warlord gains the '''Fear''' USR, & gains 2D3 Additional attacks whenever outnumbered in Close Combat (this replaces & does not stack with the Rampage USR).

* '''5: Crushing Tide''' - Such is the eagerness of the Warlord & his troops that they charge into the fight. The Warlord adds a +1 to all reserve rolls so long as he is not yet on the table.

* '''6: FACE ME!!!''' - The Warlord thirsts for combat with such strength that he must issue challenges whenever possible, if he slays a character in a challenge he gains 1 Victory Point, if he slays an independent character in a challenge he gains 2 additional Victory Points, if he slays the Enemy Warlord in a Challenge he gains 3 additional Victory Points. (These Additional Victory Points do not stack with each other, so if the Enemy Warlord is an independent character the Warlord only gains 3 VP, not 5 VP)

====N'Deemi Warlord Traits====

* '''6: That Was Left Handed''' - The Warlords skill with his weaponry allows him to wield two weapons at a time, or quickly double tap the trigger hosing his enemies with firepower.
