The security guards and patrol services industry comprises companies primarily engaged in providing guard and patrol services, including the prevention of unauthorized activity or entry, traffic regulation, access control, and fire and theft prevention and detection. Other security services such as roving patrol services, bodyguard services, and guard dog services also are included but are a very small portion of the industry. These services broadly may be described as the protection of personnel and assets. Excluded from this industry are security guard and patrol services that are performed in-house (known as proprietary security) by companies classified into other NAICS industries. An example of an in-house security service is a college or university that provides its own security and patrol services.


The index for security guards and patrol services measures changes in the revenue received by companies that provide security services. A security contract is selected, and the services provided by that contract are held fixed. Security contracts usually are long term but may not be binding because either party may terminate the contract with 30 days’ notice. Because current month prices are provided based on a fixed service level, most of the price changes are the result of changes in the billing rate. Price adjustments may occur either within the parameters of existing contracts or through contract renewals. For any given contract, a single composite billing rate may apply, or there may be multiple billing rates that apply to security personnel of various skill levels. This industry relies heavily on labor, so changes in local labor conditions are a major factor in price movements for this index.


Five input indicators were selected. Conventions: Convention 87: a value of 1 is given if the country has ratified Convention No. 87 on Freedom of Association, and 0 otherwise; 1: Restricting hours of work Convention 98: a value of 1 is given if it has ratified Convention No. 98 on the Right to Organize and Collective Bargaining, 0 otherwise; Convention 141: a value of 1 is given if it has ratified Convention No. 141 concerning Organizations of Rural Workers and their Role in Economic and Social Development, 0 otherwise.

Laws Fourth, a value of 1 is given if the country's laws have no restriction on the type of union that can be formed. The reason for this is that national and sectoral unions provide a greater degree of collective representation than is possible when only local or plant-level unions are allowed. Fifth is the existence and coverage of a law on collective bargaining. This has three possible values, 0 if there is no law or other formal instrument on collective bargaining in the country, 1 if such a law exists but with a limited coverage, and 2 if there is a law with near-general coverage.


Since we did not wish to give a disproportionate weight to the most formal and international components of the input index, the five input indicators are divided into two sets. The first set includes the three Convention ratification indicators and is given only half the weight of the second, which is the national law component.


As expected, the Scandinavian countries and other western European countries have the highest scores. Top performers are Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway. There are no ''Pacesetters'' in the Americas or Asia.


Africa is the continent having the best-performing developing country, South Africa. It happens to have been one of the very few countries where the unionization rate rose quite strongly in the 1990s. Its position thus comes as little surprise. The only other non-western European country classified as a ''Pacesetter'' is Bulgaria. It has reached this position mainly due to its outstanding achievements in terms of the legislation and other norms established to guarantee and promote the voice representation of workers.


The next best voice security providers - the ''Pragmatists'' - are mainly countries from the Americas, East Asia and Pacific, and the higher income eastern European countries plus the Russian Federation (Figure 10.6). Outsiders in this cluster, in decreasing order of security provision, are Switzerland, Mauritius, the Philippines and China.


By contrast, almost two thirds of the countries have unsatisfactory levels of representation security, and over one in every two of these come under the ''Much-to-be-Done'' label. Almost all countries in Africa and the Middle East fall into either the ''Conventional'' or ?Much-to-be-done? categories.


The latter group also includes large Asian countries such as India and Indonesia, and the Central Asian republics. The average performers - the ''Conventionals'' - come mostly from Africa and Latin America. Surprisingly, France and Greece also enter this cluster, the former mainly because it has a very low unionization rate and the latter because of a large decline in unionization over the 1990s.


This three-tiered system seems a little arbitrary, and takes some getting used to. But on the battlefield it actually feels pretty natural. Your Tech-Priests need their congregations for them to receive the blessings of the Machine Spirit. That checks out.


The Rad-Bombardment detachment ability comes in two parts; one that takes effect at the start of the first battle round, and another that triggers at the start of each subsequent battle round.


When a character leads a unit, then the combined unit is vulnerable to all abilities that target either keywords of the leader unit or keywords of the bodyguard unit. If you hide a Psyker character with some non-Pskyer bodyguards, for example, then those bodyguards are still vulnerable to Anti-Psyker.

The overarching theme of the Aeldari will be the level of reliability with which they take to the table. Many of their army rules are geared towards the idea that when the Eldar commit their ever-waning forces to battle, that the game plan plays out exactly as the runes have foretold it would. This theme is carried out at each level, starting at the top with the Faction Rule.


Strands of Fate: At the start of the battle, the Eldar player may roll 12 d6 which then become a dice pool that may be inserted in place of any hit, wound, damage, save, advance, charge, or battle shock test die roll. The player may reroll this initial set as many times as they like but lose 1 d6 each time that they do so.


Importantly, the 10th edition version extends the options for using Fate dice. No longer are you restricted to a single dice on a roll, and with the expanded categories available, it is possible to carry a single attack all the way through the damage step ensuring max possible success. It is also particularly horrifying with anything that has high damage and Devastating Wounds. On the defensive side, the dice representing themselves (a 4 is 4) opens a lot of opportunity for saves, particularly those models that have a lower invulnerable save. Think big bads here like the Avatar, Yncarne, or Wraithknight or characters who are now saving on 4s or even 3s in the case of Asurmen or the Solitaire. That grants a lot of mileage out of these dice!


Along with the six stratagems, the index provides four enhancements which are all support-oriented in nature, with no direct damage options. Instead, as might be expected by now, the enhancements largely focus on dice manipulation and ensuring your units do what you want them to do. I think the two that we are going to see most commonly are:


The Yncarne is still a fearsome and incredibly fun unit to use on the table. It maintains its famed Inevitable Death teleportation capabilities albeit limited to once per phase (more on this in a moment). The Swirling Soul Energy attacks can no longer target all units in range, but rather become a Torrent and Psychic weapon that Ignores Cover for d6 + 3 attacks at S7 AP-1 with d3 damage. In combat, the Yncarne packs one less attack than the Avatar of Khaine at a slightly lowered strength and damage output on both options but is nonetheless still strong. However, what makes the Yncarne truly fearsome is the a critical change to its Inevitable Death ability and another change to the core rules.


Farseers, Warlocks, & Psychics: I think the single biggest change to how the Eldar operate in 10th edition will come from the diminished flexibility of Farseers, Warlocks, and psychic powers on the overall force. At their heart, these units will still be force multipliers, but the specific type of Farseer/Warlock you choose will determine what type of power you have access too, and in the case of Warlocks, these powers may only be applied to the unit that the character is joining (Guardians or Windriders). While generally the Farseers grant some nice capabilities with respect to Fate, they may find themselves limited vs their current incarnation by whether they can be in position to be effective. Which takes me to my next point.


Character Survivability: Way down in 10th edition. With few options for Lone Operative and the universal removal of Look Out, Sir, Eldar characters find themselves reliant on their Bodyguard units for protection. Unfortunately, those bodyguard units are often T3 1W bodies that a volley of lasguns or a particularly stiff breeze could murder.
