Ion Shield

Codex: Renegades & Heretics, p. 6

A model with this special rule has a 4+ Invulnerable save against all Shooting Attacks resolved against its Front Armour Value (FA). In addition, you gain the Rotate Ion Shields Reaction (see below).

Rotate Ion Shields (Reaction): Instead of Setting to Overwatch, this unit may set to Rotate Ion Shields in its Shooting Phase. If you do so, the unit may still shoot in the Shooting Phase but all attacks made by the unit are resolved as Snap Shots. At the end of your Opponent's Charge Phase, you may select one of your units Armour Facings (FA/SA/RA). The units 4+ Invulnerable save from the Ion Shields special rule now applies to Shooting Attacks resolved against the chosen Armour Facing.
