A command vox relay grans a bonus to reserves tests and can be used to grant other benefits.
While a model with a command vox relay is on the battlefield, before making a reserves test for a unit in reserves, the controlling player can select for that model to activate that command vox relay. If they do they can modify the result of that reserves test by a +1. Only one command vox relay can be activated for each reserves test.
In addition, in the effects sub-phase of the start phase, the controlling player of a model with a command vox relay can make an intelligence check for that model ( if that model has the vehicle type, it is treated as having an intelligence characteristic of 8 ). If that check is successful, the controlling player can select a friendly unit which includes only models with the same faction trait as the model with the command vox relay and select one of the following effects:
- Until the end of this turn, models in that unit gain the Line(1) special rule ( and lose the Vanguard(X) special rule if they had it ).
- Until the end of this turn, models in that unit gain the Vanguard(1) special rule ( and lose the Line(X) special rule if they had it ).
