SPECIAL RULES
Shields: The Protoss are a powerful, advanced, warrior race, but they are frail as individuals, and few in number. To protect their valuable lives from the ceaseless wars they must fight, the Protoss have mastered using their psychic energy to create shields around themselves. As well as granting the Protoss a 3+ armor save, it allows them to re-roll failed saves for Wounds.
Psychic Resistance: Many of the Protoss are potent psykers, and even those who aren't have enough psychic might and skill to resist the powers of others. Whenever a psychic power is targeted on a Protoss squad or character that requires a Psychic test, that unit can resist it by rolling a D6 and adding the higest Leadership value in the squad. The power user must roll higher on a D6 adding his Leadership to penetrate the Protoss' defenses. If the psyker rolls under the Protoss squad's score, the power fails. Minor Psychic powers have no effect on the Protoss.
Shields:
-HQ-
The HQ choices for the UED Marines are the same as those for regular Space Marines.
-ELITES-
Ghost
Taken as children due to their latent psychic powers, Ghosts are trained to be Covert ops specialists, and assassins without peer.
| Unit Name | Points/Model | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld | Sv | |||||||||||
| Ghost | 75 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 | 10 | 3+ |
Number/Squadron: 1-3.
Weapons: C-10 Canister Rifle (equals Exitus Rifle).
SPECIAL RULES
Base Stats: Use the Vindicare Assassin for Ghosts.
Nuclear Barrage: One of the Ghost's primary tasks is targeting nukes for their superiors. So long as they have any nukes left, a Ghost can target a laser beam at an enemy squad within 36" during the opponent's Shooting Phase, and the nuke lands at the beginning of the opponent's Assault Phase before any Assault moves. If the Ghost is still alive by the end of that Shooting Phase, the nuke does not scatter, but if the Ghost does die, use the inaccuracy scatter for the Daemonhunter's Orbital Strike.
Psychic Agent
The UED has allowed a very small number of their psykers, who would otherwise become Ghosts and have their powers neutralized instead evolve to full psykers.
| Unit Name | Points/Model | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld | Sv | |||||||||||
| Psychic Agent | 75 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 2 | 10 | 3+ |
Number/Squadron: 1-5 can be taken as a single Elites choice. They are not required to maintain coherency.

A slight ste up from the Marines, Firebats are the demolition crews of the UED.
| Unit Name | Points/Model | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld | Sv | |||||||||||
| Firebat | 75 | 2 | 3 | 6 | 6 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 9 | 3+ |
Number/Squadron: 5-10.

-HEAVY SUPPORT-
Siege Tank
| Unit Name | Points/Model | Front Armor | Side Armor | Back Armor | BS | ||||||
| Siege Tank | 75 | 14 | 14 | 12 | 4 |
Crew: 2 Space Marines.
Weapons: Assault Cannon/Siege Cannon.
SPECIAL RULES
Firing Mode: Siege Tanks have two firing modes; attack mode and siege mode. When in attack mode, the Siege Tank can move and shoot as normal, but it must shoot its assault cannon. When in siege mode, however, it can fire its siege cannon. Note however that the siege cannon cannot target anything within 12" of the tank. During the movement phase, the tank can either sit or move and fire its turret gun or it can lock itself in place and not move, thus entering siege mode. It counts as having moved to return to battle mode, so once it does, it must wait another turn to be able to move. During Assault phase, if the thank is in siege mode and being assaulted, it can return to battle mode, but it cannot leave combat, as it cannot yoet move. For its respective weapons, these are their profile:
Range Strength AP Type Assault Cannon 36" 6 4 Heavy 3 Siege Cannon 48" 10 2 Heavy 1
Used often as a last-ditch weapon, or a retributive strike,
| Unit Name | Points/Model | Front Armor | Side Armor | Back Armor | BS | ||||||
| Nuclear Silo | 70 | 14 | 14 | 14 | N/A |
Deployment: 1-3 silos can be taken as a single Heavy Support choice.
Crew: None. Ghosts in the field target for silos. If all Ghosts perish, then unexpended silos cannot fire.
Weapons: 1 nuclear missile (cannot be reloaded).
SPECIAL RULES
Immobile: Obviously, being a large silo, the nuke silo is an immobile structure.
Targeted: Much like support weaponry, nuke silos are targeted for. Due to this, the silo itself has no Ballistic Skill or Range. Launched nukes use this profile:
Range Strength AP Type Nuclear Missile N/A 10 1 Ordinance 1
Friendly Fire: If a silo is destroyed before it launches its ordinance, than the missile detonates where the silo was, damaging any units within the area of the template.
-SPECIAL CHARACTERS-
Admiral Gerard DuGalle
One of the finest soldiers and leaders the United Earth Directorate has ever produced, DuGalle was placed in charge of the UED Expeditionary Force, assigned to the Command Ship Aleksander.
| Unit Name | Points/Model | Front Armor | Side Armor | Back Armor | BS | ||||||
| Admiral DuGalle | Lots | 14 | 14 | 12 | 4 |
Special Character: A 4000-point UED army may include DuGalle. If selected, he counts as an HQ choice on the Force Organization Chart.
Aleksander: Dugalle's Battlecruiser is a mighty weapon, several actually. It has Triple-Linked Armor Saves, Four Lascannon Batteries, and the Yamato Gun.
SPECIAL RULES
Yamato Gun: During the Shooting Phase, DuGalle can order his Battlecruiser to fire its primary superweapon, the Yamato Gun. If the Yamato Gun is fired, it cannot be fired again until a turn goes by when it doesn't fire. Thus, if fired during Turn 2, it could not be fired again until Turn 4. It uses the following profile:
Range Strength AP Type Yamato Gun 24" 9 2 Blast 1
Commander Jim Raynor

Field Medic
These brave nurses follow the marines into the battlefield without weapons in order to keep up the Marines in combat.
| Unit Name | Points/Model | WS | BS | S | T | W | I | A | Ld | Sv | |||||||||||
| Field Medic | 10 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 7 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 10 | 3+ |
Weapons: None.
Free Choice: Field Medics do not count as one of your Force Selections. Instead, you may include one Field Medic per squad in the army. The medic may not leave the squad she is assigned to and a squad may not have more than one Field Medic included.
Equipment: Power Armor, Storm Shield
SPECIAL RULES
Healer: The medical knowledge of the Field medics is so outstanding that they can patch up even the seemingly dead. Any model that dies in the squad that the Field Medic is a part of is laid down, rather than removed, and treated as if they have bionics. If they succeed, they get up again with one wound, while failure has them removed as a casualty.
