In this case, the maximum number of AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM units you can include in your army depends on the battle size, as shown below. Incursion: 1 RETINUE, 1 CHARACTER, 1 REQUISITIONED Strike Force: 2 RETINUE, 2 CHARACTER, 1 REQUISITIONED Onslaught: 3 RETINUE, 3 CHARACTER, 2 REQUISITIONED Note that you can include AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM DEDICATED TRANSPORT units in such an army as normal, but each unit must start the battle with one or more units embarked within it, or it cannot be deployed for that battle and will count as having been destroyed during the first battle round.

At the start of your turn, if your current Oath is fulfilled, determine an additional Oath, with the exception that you cannot select a Deed or Quality you have already selected (if you are randomly selecting the Deed and/or Quality and roll any result that you have already selected, select a Deed or Quality you have not already selected instead). If you cannot determine an additional Oath because you have already selected each Deed and each Quality, do not determine an additional Oath. The Qualities from Oaths you have fulfilled continue to apply to all models in your army with the Code Chivalric ability. When the Deed for an additional Oath is completed, you instead gain 1CP, regardless of how you selected the Deed or Quality.

Until the start of your next Command phase, those models are affected by that Bondsman ability.
