Hitting the Enemy
URL Copied!

To determine whether hits are scored roll a D6 for each model fighting. If you have more than 1 Attack (A) with your troops then roll a D6 for each Attack. For example, 10 Elves have 1 Attack each so roll 10 dice, but 10 Minotaurs have 2 Attacks each so roll 20 dice.

The dice roll needed to score a hit on your enemy depends upon the relative Weapon Skills (WS) of the attacker and his foe. Compare the Weapon Skill of the attacker with the Weapon Skill of his opponent and consult the chart below to find the minimum D6 score needed to hit.

If you look at the chart you will see that if your warrior's Weapon Skill is greater than that of his enemy you hit him on a dice roll of 3+. Otherwise you hit on a 4+, unless the enemy's Weapon Skill is more than double yours in which case you require a 5+.
