Block (X): Units with this trait have large shields designed to protect themselves from enemy fire. Units with this trait get a free chance to block the shot with their shield at the cost of the chance to dodge. They do not pay any command points for the attempt. Units with this trait roll a single D6. If the roll is lower than or equal to the Block value the attack is blocked. These damage point are allotted to the mecha’s shield MD. Once the points that the shield has are gone excess damage will hit the unit directly. Explosive hits like those from missiles do half damage against shields. Only attacks from the Front arc can be blocked. Brawler: This ability allows the unit to make a second melee attack for free during each activation phase while in melee combat. Bury: Units with this trait may bury themselves into the ground and ambush enemy forces by coming out of the ground. These units can only come out once buried if any ground unit approaches to within 12 inches of the unit. Claw/Spikes: Units with any one of these three traits will add +1 MD to all of their melee attacks. Protoculture Scope: All invid mecha units have a specialized scope that gives them a +1 GUN bonus against other protoculture powered mecha. Only a few units are not powered by protoculture. Units with Shadow Devices may nullify or ignore this advantage as the device blocks all protoculture emanations by these units rendering them invisible to the protoculture scope. Weakness: There are two different effects that units may suffer if they have the Weakness trait. The effect depends upon if they also have the Life is Cheap trait or not. Units with the Life is Cheap and this trait may be destroyed when hit with any attack that hits them with the roll of a natural unmodified 6. When this happens the die is re-rolled. If the unmodified result is another 6 the unit hit is instantly destroyed. If the attacker has the Accurate trait for his weapons then the second roll gets a +1 added to the total making it so that the unit can be destroyed on a 5 or 6 on the second roll. The only defense is dodging the attack or parrying the attack with a shield as long as the shield has sufficient points to absorb all of the damage. If even one point of damage passes through the shield the unit is destroyed. Units that do not have the Life is Cheap trait but have the weakness trait will also re-roll any die that strikes them with a natural 6. If another 6 is rolled then the unit loses its Protoculture Scope trait and will no longer receive the +1 GUN bonus.

The Invid Swarm The Invid Swarm is known for overtaking enemies by using massive swarms of small but deadly mecha designed to tear the enemy limb from limb. The Regent was especially known for taking pleasure watching through his drones eyes as the troops tore the enemy to shreds. In Invid armies, whenever a unit with Life is Cheap is destroyed set the destroyed mecha aside. At the beginning of the next turn, during the Pre-Action Effects Step of the Command Phase, you may pay one Command Point for every three lost units set aside as long as there is a Command Unit currently on the battlefield. This includes Enforcers, Royal Command Battloids, Invid Soldiers, and Overlords. For each Command Point spent, three of the destroyed up to 3 mecha from one specific squadron that were set aside are returned to the game as new reinforcements for that squadron. move 2 inches onto the battlefield from any point along the board edge in your deployment zone during the Pre-Action Effects Step after the Command Point is paid. These reinforcements become normal members of the squadrons they have reinforced. If not brought back the units are removed from play.
