Iron Hands
“The Flesh is Weak”
Descended from the gene-seed of the vanished Primarch Ferrus Manus, the Iron Hands hold to a creed of contempt for the flesh, replacing lost limbs and organs with augmetics until precious little of the man remains beneath the armour. Steeped in the doctrines of the Cult Mechanicus, they see emotion and weakness as one and the same, prizing cold logic, brutal efficiency and unrelenting firepower over passion or glory. Their Clan Companies wage war with a grim, isolated pragmatism, favouring dreadnoughts and heavy armour above all, for these are warriors that have already shed most of what made them mortal. To the Iron Hands, victory is not glorious - it is simply correct.
Army Rule
Oath of Moment
At the start of your Command phase, select one enemy unit as your Oath of Moment target. Each time an attack targets it, re-roll a Hit roll of 1, or the entire Hit roll if the attacker is Battleline or under 5 models.
Chapter Tactic: Machine Empathy
Each time a friendly IRON HANDS VEHICLE or DREADNOUGHT unit is destroyed, roll one D6 before removing it: on a 4+, that unit can shoot or fight (as appropriate) one final time before being removed.
