Once per game, during the Command sub-phase of your turn, unless it is engaged in combat, each Sky Lantern in your army may attempt to enact one of the following 'Grand Strategies' by making a Leadership test. If this test is passed, until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, all friendly Cathayan units that are currently within 12" of that Sky Lantern are affected by the chosen Grand Strategy:

• Defiance of the Dragon: Whilst this Grand Strategy is in effect, affected units gain the Stubborn special rule. If an affected unit is already Stubborn, it becomes Unbreakable instead.

• Strength of the Everlasting Empire: Whilst this Grand Strategy is in effect, affected units whose troop type is infantry or cavalry cannot be wounded by a roll To Wound of 2, regardless of the attacker's Strength.

• Fury of the Falling Blade: Whilst this Grand Strategy is in effect, affected units whose troop type is regular infantry gain a +1 modifier to their Movement characteristics and may re-roll their Charge, Flee or Pursuit rolls.
