What are Tormentors?

I may just be really, really stupid but, I can’t understand the wording of the tormentors rule for Drazhar and his Incubi.

I thought it may be: “If the morale results (D6 + Models lost) equals the highest leadership of the unit, they lose a model anyway when in 6” of an INCUBI model”

What do you think? I don’t know ;-;

What it means is if the enemy unit just passes their leadership test they lose one model.

For example, Space Marines lose say 2 models out of 5. They have to make a morale phase roll and roll a 6. With 2 casualties plus the morale roll of 6 that matches their leadership of 8, which normally would mean no losses from morale. With Tormentors they would instead lose a model. As an extra bonus, as they didn't fail the roll, I assume the Marines wouldn't be able to reroll either.

In short. Normally you only lose models if your morale test exceeds the unit's leadership. With tormentors, you still lose a model if the test equals the unit's leadership.
