SPECIAL RULES:
Black Templars are fanatic to the extreme even by Space Marine standards. When other Marines would fall back to regroup for a counter attack the Black Templars hurl themselves at the enemy in righteous anger. When a Black Templar detachment or company reaches break point, make a morale check as normal. However, if the check is failed the Black Templar detachment must immediately charge the nearest enemy unit within LOS. The detachment may only be given charge orders until it "rallies" and must always charge the nearest enemy unit.
A Black Templars army must include one Emperor's champion.
Black templars do not use scouts like other Marine Chapters do. Instead, the neophytes as they are called are taught the skills of war by their full-fledged brethren. Each Black Templars tactical detachment has two neophyte stands and a rhino and each bike detachment has three Neophyte bike stands as additional troops. The neophytes have the same stats as space marine scouts but they may not infiltrate.
NEW UNITS:
Emperor's Champion
Emperor's Champions are chosen from the most zealous Black Templars. They are the embodiment of the virtues of the Emperor's chosen and inspire their brothers to ever greater deeds and sacrifice in the service of the Emperor. A Emperor's Champion must issue a challenge if a enemy HQ or character stand is within charge reach in the movement phase. Both stands are moved to base contact and a close combat is fought in the CC phase as normal. If there are more than one eligible stand the Black Templars player may choose which one is challenged. The challenge may not be refused and no other models may attack either the Champion or his opponent.
