Stalwarts - Once per battle, in your Command phase, this unit can use this Battle Trait. When it does, if it is Battle­-sh­ocked, it is no longer Battle­-sh­ocked and, until the end of the turn, this unit is eligible to perform an Action in a turn in which it Fell Back and/or while within Engagement Range of one or more enemy units.

Warp Alacrity - You can re-roll Advance and Charge rolls for this unit. In addition, each time this unit is selected to Advance, you can remove one Warp counter from it.

Artificer Relics

Periapt of the Righteous - Add 2 to the bearer’s Wounds charac­ter­istic. In addition, in your Command phase, you can remove one Warp counter the bearer’s unit has. If you do, the bearer regains up to D3 lost wounds.
Tartarine Cuirass - Each time an attack is allocated to the bearer, subtract 1 from the Damage charac­ter­istic of that attack. This is not cumulative with any other modifiers that worsen the Damage charac­ter­istic of an attack.
Grimoire Abjuratis - Each time a BEAST or MONSTER model makes an attack that targets the bearer’s unit, subtract 1 from the Wound roll. If the attacking model is an UNBOUND ADVERS­ARIES unit, subtract 1 from the Hit roll as well
Cowl of Vehemence - PSYKER model only. Each time the bearer makes a Psychic Attack, re-roll a Wound roll of 1. While the bearer’s unit has one or more Warp counters, each time the bearer makes a Psychic Attack, you can re-roll the Wound roll instead.
 

Antiquity Relics

Riftwa­lker's Astrolave - The bearer has the Deep Strike ability. While the bearer is leading a unit, models in that unit have the Deep Strike ability.
Weapon of Renown - Select one melee weapon that the bearer is equipped with (excluding a weapon that has been replaced by an Enhanc­ement or upgraded via the Weapon Modifi­cations Battle Trait). That weapon is now a Crusade Relic and it has the [ANTI-­UNBOUND ADVERS­ARIES 4+] and [DEVAS­TATING wounds] abilities.
Excorc­ist's Thurible - The bearer has the Feel No Pain 5+ ability against mortal wounds and Psychic Attacks. In addition, once per battle, just after rolling to generate an Anomaly, you can remove one Warp counter the bearer has. If you do, you can change one of the dice that were part of that roll to a dice result of your choosing (changing the anomaly genera­ted).
Sangui­flamme of Armageddon - At the start of your Command phase, if the bearer is within range of an objective marker you control, you can choose one of the following: Remove 1 Warp counter that the bearer’s unit has. If you do, gain 1CP. Take a Leadership test for this model. If that test is passed, gain 1CP.
 

Legendary Relics

Vengeance Totem - When the bearer’s unit is destroyed, roll one D6 for every enemy unit within 6": on a 4+, that enemy unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. Then, if the bearer’s unit had one or more Warp counters when it was destroyed, you can set up one unit of UNBOUND ADVERS­ARIES on the battle­field as close as possible to where the bearer’s model was destroyed and not within Engagement Range of any enemy units. The Power Level of this unit is equal to the number of Warp counters the bearer’s unit had.
Empyro­man­cer's Focus - PSYKER model only. The bearer’s Psychic weapons gain the [sustained hits 2] ability. In addition, at the end of the Set Warp Events step, if the bearer is in your Crusade army, you can choose to increase or decrease the intensity of the Warp Events used in that battle by 1 (to a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3).
Warp-t­ouched Weapon - INFANTRY or MOUNTED model only. Select one melee weapon that the bearer is equipped with (excluding a weapon that has been replaced by an Enhanc­ement or upgraded via the Weapon Modifi­cations Battle Trait). That weapon is now a Crusade Relic and you add 1 to the Attacks, Strength and Damage charac­ter­istic of that weapon. In addition, each time the bearer is selected to fight, you can first remove up to 3 Warp counters from the bearer’s unit. For each Warp counter removed in this way, until the end of the phase, add an additional 1 to the Attacks and Strength charac­ter­istics of that weapon.
Beast-ward Barbute - Each time a BEAST or MONSTER unit targets the bearer’s unit, before making any attacks, that BEAST or MONSTER unit must take a Battle­-shock test. Each time a model in that BEAST or MONSTER unit makes an attack that targets the bearer’s unit, subtract 1 from the Hit roll and, if that test was failed, subtract 1 from the Wound roll as well. In addition, once per battle, in your Command phase, you can select one UNBOUND ADVERS­ARIES unit within 18" of the bearer. If you do, until the start of your next Command phase, that UNBOUND ADVERS­ARIES unit loses the UNBOUND ADVERS­ARIES keyword and is part of your Crusade army.
