A war machine consists of several models – the war machine itself and the crew that operate it, together making a single model. To represent this, a war machine model has a split profile. In game terms, this works as follows:

• This model is treated as a single model and, unless noted otherwise, any special rules that apply to one element (war machine or crew) apply to the other as well.

• In combat, use the Toughness and Wounds characteristics of the crew.

• When not in combat, use the Toughness and Wounds characteristics of the war machine.

• For each Wound the crew loses, it suffers a -1 modifier to its Attacks characteristic.

• When this model makes an Armour Save roll, it uses the crew's armour value.

• If either the crew or the war machine is reduced to zero Wounds, the model as a whole is removed from play.
