Subject: Shooting at a unit where some models have the character keyword (Death Korps Quatermaster Cadre)
The Death Korp unit "Death Korps Quartermaster Cadre" in Forgeworlds index AM contains 2-4 servitors and a single Quartermaster.
The Quartermaster has the keyword "Character".
The Medicae-servitors do not.
However, this is a single unit (no separate orders rules).
I have been unable to find any reference to this in an FAQ.
So my question is: can my opponent shoot at the unit like a regular unit, or does it have the protections of a Character (e.g must be the closest unit).

I suspect this works the same as Deathwatch, where the unit has all the keywords of every model in the unit until there ceases to be any models with that keyword in the unit (dies, splits off to form a different unit, w/e).

Q: Some Character units can include
non-Character models – the Genestealer
Cults Patriarch and its Familiar ‘upgrade’,
for example. Can such a unit be shot
at even if it isn’t the closest visible
enemy unit?
A: No. The restrictions on targeting
Characters applies to a unit whilst any
model in the unit has the Character
keyword (and none have 10 or
more wounds).
