- Troops units in ADEPTUS CUSTODES Detachments gain the Objective Secured ability (see the Warhammer 40,000 Core Book).
- Each ADEPTUS CUSTODES model counts as one additional model when determining control of an objective marker. This is

cumulative with any other rules that makes them count as additional models.
- For the purposes of determining whether all units in an ADEPTUS CUSTODES
Detachment have a Faction keyword in common,
ANATHEMA PSYKANA units in that Detachment are treated as having the ADEPTUS CUSTODES Faction keyword.

- Each time an attack made by a model in this unit targets an enemy PSYKER or DAEMON unit within 6" of it, add 1 to that
attack's wound roll.
(Codex: Adeptus Custodes p88)

- You cannot include more ANATHEMA PSYKANA Troops units than you do ADEPTUS CUSTODES Troops
units in each ADEPTUS CUSTODES Detachment from your army.

you do ADEPTUS CUSTODES HQ units in each ADEPTUS
CUSTODES Detachment from your army.

- You cannot select an ANATHEMA PSYKANA model as your WARLORD.

(Codex: Adeptus Custodes p52)
From Golden Light:
During deployment, if every model in this unit has this ability, then you can set up this unit in a teleportarium
chamber instead of setting it up on the battlefield. If you do so, then in the Reinforcements step of one of your Movement
phases, you can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" away from any enemy models.
(Codex: Adeptus
Custodes p88)
Host of Heroes:
You can include a maximum of one of each type of SHIELD-CAPTAIN (i.e. GUARDIAN, ALLARUS and VERTUS)

Objective Secured:
A player controls an objective marker if they have any models with this ability within range of that objective
marker, even if there are more enemy models within range of that objective marker. If an enemy model within range of an
objective marker also has this ability (or a similar ability), then the objective marker is controlled by the player who has the most
models within range of that objective marker as normal.
(Warhammer 40,000 Core Book p237)
 Shield Host Fighting Style:
Each shield host has its own way of waging war, suited to its particular combat traits. All ADEPTUS
CUSTODES units with this ability, and all the models in them, gain a shield host fighting style so long as every unit in their
Detachment that is assigned to a shield host is assigned to the same shield host. The fighting style gained depends upon which
shield host they are assigned to, as shown on the following pages.
(Codex: Adeptus Custodes p52)
Watchers of the Throne:
For the purposes of the Look Out, Sir rule, each ADEPTUS CUSTODES INFANTRY and ADEPTUS
CUSTODES BIKER model counts as 2 models for friendly ADEPTUS CUSTODES CHARACTER models of the same <SHIELD
HOST>.
