Ok I have a question, on how this effects normal models with a ward save like a parry or a demon.

It's obvious how it works with characters. They have to reroll because you have to be in B2B to attack them, but lets say you are fighting a squad of deomettes or lizardmen with shields. You only need to be in base contact with one to attack the whole unit, however many of the models that attack you will not be in base contact. So how do you resolve this?
Does it not work, does it work on everyone?
Does it work on all models in that squad that are the same?
Does it only make you reroll the number of saves equal to the number of models in base contact with that save? <--this is how we played it but it doesn't feel correct.

Cool thanks for the clarification.

this is one of those cases where if GW was good at writing rules they would have just made it the whole unit. As it stands only characters in a unit not in b2b are not effected if any RAF model is in contact with the bearer.
