Hello friends,

Recently in a game I had, my friend had 45 renegade militia in a unit. He attached an enforcer to them to help stop losses from failed leadership checks. I polished off so many with a bane wolf in a turn that the nearest militia model was now more than 6" away from said enforcer, and out of cohesion with the enforcer. When he made the uncertain worth check, he rolled 3d6 and said that the enforcer's leadership applied to the militia, even though he was so far away. He claimed that because the enforcer was not a "character", he was part of the militia and his leadership replaced theirs. I hope this hasn't confused you so far, I know it did me. Can someone actually tell me how this works? The rules entry on leadership does nothing to support this. But the enforcer is not a character. Im at a loss.

Thanks!

While the cohesion doesn't matter because the enforcer IS a separate unit and a CHARACTER (due to errata), because he is more than 3" away his Baleful Judge rule doesn't apply and his leadership is never conferred to another unit as he doesn't have a special rule doing so. Characters don't confer their leadership by default to other units now. Seems like your friend wasn't aware that the FW books are pretty much worthless toilet paper and need 6 trillion pages of errata to function:

Funnily enough since single unit models can't take morale checks, his Fanatic rule literally does nothing.
