Decoding the CADIAN SHOCK TROOPS Datasheet
The CADIAN SHOCK TROOPS Datasheet is more than just a list of numbers; it’s the key to understanding how these hardened warriors function within the game. It outlines their Movement, Weapon Skill, Ballistic Skill, Strength, Toughness, Wounds, Attacks, Leadership, and Save characteristic. These stats, often shortened to WS, BS, S, T, W, A, Ld, and Sv, define their capabilities in combat.

- Orders: Cadian Officers can issue orders to the Shock Troops, granting them powerful buffs and tactical advantages.
- Wargear: From lasguns and grenades to special weapons like plasma guns and grenade launchers, the wargear choices drastically impact their role on the battlefield.
- Keywords: Keywords such as “Infantry,” “Astra Militarum,” and “Cadian” determine which stratagems and abilities can be used on the unit.
