As a general rule, players should never deliberately attack their own units in order to gain an advantage during a game. This applies for the Shooting, Close Combat and Magic Phases.

No. Unless otherwise stated, the profiles contain base statistics. This means that units and characters armed with halberds or double-handed weapons need to add the appropriate strength modifier before determining the strength of their attack. Mounted chargers also need to add the appropriate strength bonus for spears and lances, and troops with flails need to add the strength bonus for the first round of hand-to-hand combat. This also applies to the strength bonus Witch Elves receive for their poisoned weapons. Units that have heavy armour and shield, or barding need to modify their movement appropriately.

Unless stated otherwise, a unit must consist of at least 5 figures. These 5 models may include a champion character or leader, a musician and a regimental standard bearer.

If a unit has less than five models in it missile hits are randomized in a suitable way. In this way it is possible to hit characters within a unit.

Normally, stats other than movement, wounds and attacks are rated on a scale of 1 through 10.

The stat numbers are for an unequipped model. Equipment and magic item bonuses are added to the profile values.

In rare cases, the number of attacks (A), the number of wounds (W), and leadership (LD) may be raised above 10 by magical means or the use of some special ability.

A weapon skill (WS) of zero means the model cannot attack or defend itself. Combat attacks against such models automatically hit.
A ballistic skill (BS) of zero means the model is unable to use missle weapons.

Several tests and declarations are made at the start of a player's turn. The following order is recommended:

1. General compulsory tests. Take them in the following order. Fleeing units do not test.

   1. Panic due to friendly units fleeing nearby. Move during mandatory movement.

   2. Terror due to nearby terror-causing models. Move during mandatory movement.

   3. Stupidity. Move during mandatory movement.

2. Race specific compulsory tests. Take them in any order.

   1. Orc and goblin Animosity. Move and fight immediately.

   2. Daemon Animosity. Move immediately, fight Close Combat phase.

   3. Beastmen Infighting.

   4. Darkelf Disobedience. Move during mandatory movement.

3. Other compulsory tests. Take them in any order. Examples: Black Gem of Gnar, Storm Banner, Mork Wants Ya.

4. Note war machines recovering from misfires or loss of crew.

5. Optional declarations. Make them in any order. Examples: Sceptre of Norgrim, Potion of Strength.

1. Declare all charges.

2. Declare all charge reactions.

3. Chargers take a terror or fear test if defenders cause terror or fear. If the test is failed and the chargers must flee, move during the Compulsory Movement phase.

4. Defenders take a terror or fear test if chargers cause terror or fear and are within charge range. Measure but do not move chargers to see if they can complete the charge. Defenders that fail a terror test, or that fail a fear test and are outnumbered, must flee. Move the defenders immediately.

5. Defenders take a panic test if already engaged in combat and charged in the flank or rear by a unit of 5+ models. Measure but do not move chargers to see if they can complete the charge. Defenders that fail a panic test must flee. Move the defenders immediately. If opposing units in base contact won the previous round of combat, the units may pursue. Work out the pursuit moves immediately.

6. Resolve stand and shoot missile fire. Remove casualties. If the charging unit panics, move during the Compulsory Movement phase.

7. Move units that declared Flee as the charge reaction. If the unit that is fleeing is engaged in combat, enemy units may pursue if they won the previous round of combat. Work out the pursuit immediately.

8. Chargers may redirect the charge to another unit if the enemy flees. Repeat all the above steps for a redirected charge. Enemy units that become chargeable because the fleeing unit moved out of the way cannot choose Stand and Shoot as the charge reaction.

1. Only units with 25% or more of its original number of troops may attempt to rally. Units that panicked during this turn may not attempt to rally.

2. Associated characters, other than Champions, do not count towards the unit's original size in determining 25%.

3. A player may rally troops in any order he wishes - once a fleeing general is rallied, other fleeing troops may attempt to rally on his leadership if within 12 inches.

All fleeing units are moved now. Units with mandatory movement rules are also moved now. Move the units in any order you wish.

1. Measure and move charging units. Note that units moved during the Compulsory Movement phase may suddenly interefere with a charge, causing it to fail.

2. If a charging unit touches any model in a fleeing unit, the entire fleeing unit is destroyed. Charging units are moved their full movement through fleeing units.

Move remaining units.

When any part of its base is over the edge of the board.

No. If during its turn a unit march moves, and during the opponent's turn a unit engages it in hand-to-hand combat, it fights normally.

No. Note that the Dwarf Anvil of Doom is specifically excluded from this rule.

Yes, but unless the charging unit is able to contact all the enemies it declared its charge against, then count it as a failed charge. Note that if the charge fails the unit can't move closer than 1" to an enemy unit, even if said enemy was one of the units it declared a charge against (i.e. you must get all or none!)

No. Note, this rule does not apply to characters who are affected by frenzy or who have the Berserker Sword. Such characters MUST charge out of their units if they are in charge range of an enemy unit at the start of their turn.

If any part of the charging unit makes contact with its target, align the units into combat with each other. It can happen that a situation is confusing because of interposing terrain or models which make it impossible to align the whole unit.

No, when a flying High figure comes down into hand-to-hand combat, it cannot pursue, and cannot redirect its charge.

No, they can only cause a panic test (if 25% or more casualties caused). If the attacking unit fails its panic test, it flees instead of successfully charging the defender.

Yes.

No. In order to shoot at an enemy unit it has to be in the unit's field of view; enemy units that are charging a unit's flank or rear are not in that unit's field of view.

No, except Jezzails and Warpfire Throwers. Warpfire Throwers cannot stand and shoot at creatures that attack from flying high.

Yes.

Yes.

Assuming the chargers began their charge move more than half their charge move away from the unit declaring stand and shoot, work out range for missile weapons at the actual range before chargers are moved. Missile weapons that are out of range before the chargers move are assumed to be fired or thrown as soon as the chargers come into range. In both cases, a -1 to hit modifier is applied in addition to any long range shooting penalty that may apply.

No. The unit that is being attacked by the magically moved unit/character does not have time to react to the charge. This means that the only charge reaction allowed for magically moved attackers is 'hold'.

If charging foe is within range when the charge is declared, the damage for the breath weapon is worked out before the charging unit moves. If the charging unit is not is range for the breath weapon, move the unit until the breath weapon template covers (50% or more of the base) members of the front rank of the unit, then work out damage.

Yes, as long as the enemy is within missile fire range after movement.

No.

No.

Includes missile fire, artillery, breath weapons, etc. Normally, you declare which unit is going to shoot, work out all dice rolls, casualties and panic, then move on to another unit. In addition, note the following house rules, offered in the interest of good sportsmanship:

All firing that requires range guessing by the player should be declared before the commencement of any other missile fire. After you declare all your ranges, work out the shooting for these units. This is done so that the player does not gain any benefit from measurements made to resolve other missile fire hits.

Only if the unit shooting is at a higher elevation (e.g., deployed on a hill) or has a special rule (e.g., Stegadon Howdah).

Only if the rank shooting is at a higher elevation (e.g., deployed on a hill) or has a special rule (e.g., Bretonnian bowmen and High Elven archers).

Yes. Hills, no matter how they are actually modeled, are assumed to have slope that allows models to see over each other.

Suggestion: Negotiate hill rules before the game. Conventions for modeling terrain may vary.

War machines must target an enemy unit it can see. War machines that employ range guessing may shoot over a visible enemy target to strike an enemy target hidden from view. No rule prevents such war machines from guessing long.

No and no.

House Rule: The Warhammer Design Team suggest the following house rule. Large monsters (and characters riding them) can see over other models apart from other large monsters. This also means that large monsters and characters riding large monsters can be seen if they are behind foot-sized or mounted-knight size units (and potentially missile fire aimed there way).

If a unit has unrestricted view of the enemy, the enemy is within the 90-degree fire arc and it is within range, they can shoot it.

No, except for the War Hydra and Dragons.

Yes.

If the template is positioned so that it only touches models from one side and none of these models are actually fighting, then the hits are applied only to that unit. If the template touches any models from either side who are engaged in hand-to-hand fighting, then distribute the number of hits equally between both sides.

If a character is within 5" of a unit of 5 or more models he can only be targeted if he is the closest model to the shooter. If a character is more than 5" away from a unit, he may be freely targeted.

No. The bolt thrower is considered traditional missile fire and must obey targeting rules for missile fire. Therefore, for unit of 5 or more figures, it only kills rank and file troopers.

As long as the unit starts with more than 5 models at the start of the missile fire phase, all hits are applied to rank and file models. The characters cannot be hit in this round of shooting.

Strictly according to the rules, if a unit has 5 or more rank and file models then associated characters cannot be hit by missile fire, even if enough wounds are caused to completely wipe out all of the models in the unit. Players that wish for more complexity should feel free to invent their own house rules for this situation.

No, all models get 1 missile attack. The number of attacks listed as a characteristic is the number of attacks in hand-to-hand combat.

The rules about having more than 1 wound are used to determine if a mount is considered a monster mount or a steed. Therefore, there is no +1 missile fire bonus for shooting at Harpies, Beastmen and Unicorns. Only "big" monsters suffer the +1 to be hit penalty.

Yes. The only combination that is not cumulative is (character & skirmish formation) and (soft cover & hard cover). Combinations of (character & soft cover), (character & hard cover), (skirmish & soft cover), (skirmish & hard cover) are valid cumulative to hit modifiers.

+1 to hit due to large sized model.

Note that the -1 to hit modifier only applies when shooting at single man-sized character model. This means that shooting at a character on a horse would count a 0 to hit modifier (larger than man-sized, but not a large target).

Yes. Pistol rules contain no wording that exempt it from the long range penalty.

House Rule: Given the limited range of pistols, it is suggested that pistols be exempt from the long range penalty.

Yes, however all elevated war machines gain line of sight over friendly troops. It is suggested that warmachines should be allowed to shoot over hostile troops to other hostile units behind them. Note, it is suggested that the goblin Doomdiver should not need line of sight and may be shot over friendly troops, as he picks his target from the air.

No! Anything (ie magic items, wargear, steeds, etc) which increases a model's armour save can never increase it to greater than 1+, under any circumstances whatsoever.

1. Issue challenges.

2. Reveal assassins.

3. Determine model attacking order: first strike, charging, initiative, double-handed weapons.

4. Declare targets for all of a model's attacks before rolling attacks.

5. Roll attacks and remove casualties. Note number of wounds inflicted.

6. Mark units completely destroyed in combat by leaving a single model on its side.

7. Compute combat resolution for each melee.

8. Losers take a break test. If failed, turn a model about to show the unit is fleeing, but do not move yet.

9. Friendly units that have not taken a break test must take a single panic test if within 12 inches of a friendly unit that is broken or destroyed. If the test is failed, turn a model around to show the unit is fleeing.

10. Remove destroyed unit markers and award 'captured standard' victory points if the destroyed unit had a banner.

11. Flying creatures beaten in melee combat but not broken are driven off. Move immediately.

12. Roll flee movement for each unit marked as fleeing and account for any terrain penalties. Pursuing units then roll and also account for terrain penalties. If a pursuing unit moves further than a fleeing unit, then the fleeing unit is destroyed.

13. Victorious units may lap around enemy units that have not broken.

14. Characters that declined a challenge are automatically moved back into a fighting rank.

Frenzy doubles the base number of attacks, then add the extra attack due to 2nd hand weapon, magic weapon, etc.

No. The best you can do is double the base number of attacks. Anything on top of that has no effect.

The second rank of spearmen get to attack on any round that they did not charge into combat. Therefore, if they receive a charge they get to attack. The 2nd rank of spearmen will always get to fight in the 2nd round of hand-to-hand combat.

The models armed with spears directly behind the models involved in the combat may fight with spears (two rows may fight).

No, unless he has special rules that allow him to.

For the first unsaved wounding hit (as per Warhammer Magic, p. 32), determine the number of wounds caused. If this kills the rank and file soldier, then the next wounding hit is applied to the another rank and file soldier, otherwise the next wounding hit is applied to the same soldier until he is dead. Note that wounds do not spill over from one rank and file soldier to the next.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes. How many attacks are directed at what models must be decided before any combat results are determined.

Yes.

Consult the magic item card which confers the first strike ability. Most magic items which confer first strike ability explicitly say to resolve this in initiative order, and if both initiatives are equal, roll a D6. Suggested Amendment: If both models have first strike ability, resolve in initiative order or roll a D6 if both initiatives are equal.

Roll a die to determine. Suggested Amendment: When opposing models have first strike ability, resolve in initiative order, or roll a D6 if initiatives are equal.

No. Please note that moving the two models is only a suggestion to make it clear they are fighting a challenge. The actual rule is that the challengers are moved so they are opposite each other, but remain within their respective units.

Only if he is already fighting in close combat.

No.

The monster can only fight in the challenge.

Automatic hits should be distributed between characters and rank and file as evenly as possible, pursuant to the commentary on p. 108 of the rules. Only the character in the chariot and the steeds fight in the challenge, while the other members of the chariot crew are not allowed to fight. Other members from the unit may not attack the chariot during a challenge.

Use the normal rules for striking order. Unless some weapon penalty or magical effect applies, the charger would normally strike first.

Yes.

The 5th edition Rulebook states "the retired character may not fight or do anything else that turn." However the Warhammer Design Team have stated that the unit can use the character's leadership.

No. Challenges are made before Assassins are revealed. This means that an Assassin cannot take part in a challenge on the turn he is revealed, and may not attack characters that are involved in a challenge either.

No.

Yes and Yes. Although Skaven Assassins are listed in the Regiment section of the army list, they are treated as characters for the purposes of challenges.

Yes.

Consult the rules for each magic item. In general, attacks are resolved in Initiative order. If the combatants have equal initiatives, then roll a D6. Items such as the Helm of Many Eyes, the Sword of Swift Slaying and the Bad Moon Banner all state this explicitly on the item cards. Suggested Amendment: If both models have the first strike ability, always resolve in initiative order, and then roll a D6 if the initiatives are equal.

If both sides are armed this way the side with the highest initiative strikes first

The side that won combat the previous turn goes first or if that doesn't apply roll a D6.

Roll a D6 at the start of each combat to decide which takes precedence. Suggested Amendment: Magical first strike ability takes precedence over non-magical double-handed weapons.

The models in the second rank do get to strike back.

No, the Rulebook does not count them as "double-handed weapons."

Any figure with multiple wounds that is killed in hand-to-hand combat has all of its wounds apply towards combat resolution.

Yes.

Compute the rank bonus before casualties have been taken out of the unit.

No, as long as there are 5 models in the enemy unit, the +1 combat resolution bonus is given.

No. Rank bonus is only negated when a unit is actually charged in the flank.

No. Once all the units are engaged, it is considered a single combat.

The casualties come out of the front rank, "as normal"

No, never. If a unit is engaged with 2 enemy units, and 1 enemy unit flees, it may not pursue as long as it is in contact with the other enemy unit.

Yes.

Yes, even if the unit winning the combat has frenzy.

Yes, the unit does not have time to flee.

The character flees directly away from where the two units intersect.

No.

Yes.

No, its fleeing movement is halted 1" from enemy unit. Units can only come into contact with enemy units by charging.

If a situation should arise where the fleeing unit can flee through a gap that the pursuing troops couldn't fit through, then the pursuing troops should be allowed to chase after the opponent. This would be allowed as long as no individual model in the unit moves further than the distance rolled on the dice (effectively the pursuing troops move in the same way as the fleeing troops). The pursuing unit may end up in an odd formation. This is not intended to allow pursuing units to change formation willy-nilly; they may only change formation in order to catch an opponent.

No. The summary card is wrong - fleeing troops always move towards their own table edge during compulsory moves if at all possible.

The pursuing unit moves its full distance. The fleeing unit is removed from the game.

No. The rules judge the fleeing unit as caught based upon the distance each unit actually moves. That is why terrain penalties are factored in. The rule book does not enumerate every possible battlefield condition that might restrict a pursuer's movement. One should factor in all conditions that restrict movement.

No.

Only if the model had 5 or more wounds on its profile (or was the general).

A terror test. If it fails, it will flee.

It lands on the ground where it was intending to & flees 3D6", towards their starting table edge if possible. The unit that was charged does not get to pursue.

No. Creatures whose view is obstructed by terrain don't cause terror tests. Note however that creatures behind a unit, or outside its "charge arc" are still "seen" for purposes of causing terror.

The number of models in the unit is determined at the beginning of the phase.

No. The Battle Standard only allows re-rolls of break tests.

No, not unless the unit description specifically states that the unit is immune to break tests. Psychology and break tests are "quite separate."

Yes, although they do not ignore psychology tests until there is an enemy unit within charge "distance."

Yes. Once the unit is immune to psychology, it is immune to all psychology.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Any wounds applied to the giant don't affect the combat results. The rest of the combat then carries on as normal.

No.

No, because the unit ignores the fear in the first place, it is not affected by the automatic break rule.

The non-magical weapons and armour available to characters depends upon the army that the character fights for. Every army book has an equipment list printed right before the discussion of the units and characters for the army. In that equipment list, any item that does not have a '*' by it is available to the characters of that army.

Champions of units must be armed and armoured the same as rank and file members of the unit (With a few exceptions such as Chaos or Undead Champions). Character points must be expended to equip unit champions.

Characters may attack the Fleshounds with non-magical weapons (temporarily sheathing that magic Frostblade to use a regular axe, etc.). All special characters come with 1 non-magical hand weapon. A character may change weapons in a combat freely.

Yes.

No and yes.

Characters are defined as General, Battle Standard Bearer, Hero, Champion (and equivalent figures to heroes and champions, such as Plague Priests and Wardancer champions), Magic Users and in most cases, Assassins. As a general rule, if you pay "character points" for it (see your army book if you are unsure), it is subject to the special rules for characters.

As a general matter, it is good to remember that characters suffer the same fate as the units in which they are placed - they may not leave a unit when it breaks, nor may they attempt to rally when their unit is smaller than 25% of its original size. Moreover, with the exception of champions, characters do not gain the special abilities of the units in which they are placed - thus a character placed with a unit that is immune from breaking will still have to take break tests. Keeping these rules in mind will help avoid many rules disputes.

The 5th edition rules went a long way towards resolving any ambiguities in this area. If a unit suffers a psychological failure or breaks, any characters with that unit are subject to that liability, even if they would have been otherwise immune to it. Conversely, if a character is liable to a psychological rule or break test that the rest of the unit he is placed with is immune to, he must make any appropriate tests on his own and suffer the consequences alone, if he should fail.

The different Chaos champions of Slaneesh have a special rule that allows them to stay in hand-to-hand combat when the unit that they are in breaks. This is an exception to the general rule stated above.

No.

As a notable exception Assassin (Skaven and Dark Elf) characters have a special rule that allows them to leave fleeing units.

Just like everybody else, characters can only charge a target they can see. In Warhammer, regiments and individual models can only see 90 degrees to their front, so if a unit is outside this arc they are safe.

When the Battle Standard Bearer character is killed. The Battle Standard Bearer is considered a character, and all of the character targeting rules for missile fire, hand-to-hand combat, and magic spells apply.

No. The battle standard allows units within 12" to re-roll failed break tests; it does not allow re-rolls for failed panic, fear, or terror tests.

No.

No, characters are always placed in the front rank, unless the unit is in combat on another side.

Yes, and yes. Note, unlike earlier editions, in 5th edition this rule is not based on a rank and file member physically pushing the character out of the way, but merely giving him a warning shout.

Yes and No. Whether a mounted character can be singled out for missile fire depends on his size relative to the size of the unit rank and file.

There is no definitive base sizes for the different monsters, use what fits.

This is up to the players' discretion.

Allow figures to fight the monster if it seems reasonable, the figures do not have to be in contact with the base.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

If the rider of a monstrous creature is killed whilst flying up, then the monster will fly off and takes no further part in the game.

Assume all dragons are not subject to the Bound Monster Rules, but all other monsters not covered in the Beastiary are subject to them.

The flying high creature may be positioned in the unit's flank. It is suggested that they be placed in the front if there is any room.

Yes. Play it that fliers are not affected by the 'defended obstacle' rule (i.e. they hit normally).

No and No. In reality the flyer is still wheeling above the unit. Combats are worked out against the target's front.

Note, this would not be the rule if the flyer charged using its ground movement.

Only the chariot carrying the magical standard gains its benefits.

If a single model is involved in combat, the others can still move freely. Offensive and defensive spells only affect the targeted model.

If a champion/leader is in the unit, all chariots may use his leadership value. If the leader of a loose unit has the crown of command, all models in the leader's chariot get to use his unmodified leadership of 10, but break tests for other models in the loose unit would be modified.

Only 1 chariot is transported.

Loose units do not block line of sight (although the individual models do), unless the shooter is attempting to shoot between two models which are no more than 2 inches apart - in which case, treat the two models as skirmishers, which do block line of sight.

Yes, however note that unless charging, models which move to within 1 inch of an enemy model must immediately come to a halt.

Strictly according to the rules, No. Suggested house rule: roll a D6 to determine this in each case.

Yes.

The cannon ball causes one hit to a random location. Use the chariot shooting chart to determine location.

Studio House Rule: "In the studio we take the path of a cannon to be one long template. If in doubt, imagine the template to be the width of a range ruler or normal tape measurer (about one quarter inch wide) and as long as the path the ball takes from its initial bounce to the point it comes to rest."

Yes.

No, but having a standard on a chariot will not add +1 to combat resolution either.

Yes, but note that there must be another model in the same chariot as the character.

A character may join a unit of chariots, but does not get into the chariot itself (he stays on foot, or horse, etc.).

House Rule: It is suggested that characters who "may ride" in chariots be allowed to join a loose unit of chariots.

A chariot counts as a single figure no matter how many crew or pulling beasts. Note, this is not the rule with respect to Undead Chariots.

Everything in contact with the chariot is considered to be in base to base contact with the character.

Yes and yes.

No, all the crew is involved in the combat.

No.

No.

All of the crew are moved into base to base contact with the enemy and must fight.

Yes. This includes Warpfire Throwers, bolt shooters and cannon for example, but obviously excludes the Doomwheel and the Steam tank as they have specific rules regarding turning.

Yes and Yes. The delays would be added together, such that the machine may actually only fire every third or fourth turn.

Yes if of the same type.

No, the formation of batteries is optional. Note, unless a player declares such warmachines to be independent, it is assumed that they are a battery.

Double the points of a normal figure in the unit. Include the cost of all of the equipment for a rank and file member of the unit before doubling it. Note, this rule does not apply to certain specified troop types such as Dragon Princes, Chaos knights, & Bretonnian knights.

Yes, towards the center. The Leader, who may either be a champion or an ordinary member of Rank and File only, must be placed in the center of the front rank.

Yes. There is nothing in the rules that exclude these units from getting unit standards.

A unit may only have a single unit standard bearer. The only time a unit may have 2 standards in it is if one of them is the unit standard, and the other is the battle standard.

No.

1. Determine Winds of Magic

2. Return model using Earthblood to table, deal the player the 1st D6 magic cards available (Colour Magic users only).

3. Magic items within 12" of skull staff wielders should be revealed.

4. Deal cards for magic mushrooms.

5. Deal remaining winds of magic cards, phasing player first.

6. Deal out cards as needed for Chalice of Sorcery, War Altar, and other magic items.

7. WAAAGH! tests (count only Orc units of 10+, Goblin units of 20+).

8. Work out results of spells already in play.

9. Cast spells and test for warpstone (if used).

10. Dispel attempts, dispel power boosts.

11. Spell casters reinforce spells.

12. Roll dispel dice.

13. Resolve spell effect if dispel fails (make armour saving rolls if applicable).

14. Test for Crown of Sorcery, Potion of Knowledge, Wand of Jet, etc. (if used).

15. Cast further spells.

16. Test for panic for units suffering 25%+ casualties.

17. Casting player may attempt to dispel any spells "in play" from previous turn.

18. End of Magic Phase, each wizard may retain one Wind of Magic card.

The Dark Elf Sorcerers get to draw from the Dark Magic deck before all other types of spell casters, no matter what the level of the Dark Elf Sorcerer and the level of the other spell caster. This means that they get access to the Dark Magic Spell Deck before the various Chaos spell casters, and the various Undead spell casters.

To determine the drawing order between Dark Elf Sorcerers, the level of the spell caster is used (higher level drawing first).
Suggested House Rule: If some spell casters are of the same level, what type of spell caster they are determines the order. That order is:

1. Dark Elf Sorcerer's drawing dark magic cards.

2. High Elf and Wood Elf Mages.

3. Dark Elf Sorcerers using decks other than dark magic.

4. Chaos Sorcerers, Beastmen Shamans, Greater Daemons, and Necromancers.

5. Lesser Daemons.

6. Grey Seers, Orc Shamans, Skaven Warlocks and Human Mages.

7. Goblin Shamans.

If 2 spell casters draw are tied, and draw from the same deck, use a die roll to determine which spell caster draws first (highest roll draws spells first). Breaking ties is not necessary if the 2 spell casters draw from entirely different decks.

Yes. For non-Dwarf armies, the dispel will work on a basic die roll of 5+. The dispel may be boosted with power cards and the caster may reinforce as normal.

For Dwarf armies, the dispel will work on a basic die roll of 4+. The dispel may be boosted with power cards and the caster may reinforce as normal.

No.

No. For example, assume an allied Empire and High Elf army, with a High Elf Mage (with High Magic), and the Grand Theogonist with Battle Magic spells. The Grand Theogonist gets his own D3+1 Winds of Magic cards, but could not use the High Elf Mage's ability to treat power cards as if they were dispel cards. What the Grand Theogonist gets in his draw he is stuck with.

A wizard who casts a spell which remains in play may dispel it automatically at the start of his own magic turn without expending a card to do so. He may cast the spell again that turn if he wishes.

No and no. Assume he has strayed too far from the winds of magic until he returns to the board.

Yes.

No. A roll of '6' on the die is always considered a failure unless stated otherwise on the spell card.

Yes. The same targeting restrictions that apply to missile fire governs a spell that affects a 'unit' or 'figure or unit.' If the spell can do a lot of damage to a unit, the spell caster is going to kill as many people as possible.

If a spell affects a 'single model', then characters can be targeted with impunity. Even if the character is within a unit they may be targeted.

Yes.

There are two types of spell damage done to a chariot that are randomized per the charts in the Rulebook.

One is the damage done by a spell that states "the first model hit suffers a strength x hit that causes y wounds". This "first model in path" spell hits a random part of the chariot to do its damage.

The other type of damage done by a spell that is randomized is the spell that states "the unit suffers x strength y hits". Once the number of hits is determined, randomize where each hit potentially wounds.

Template spells affect everything under the template. Spells that can target a single model for damage can target any part of the
chariot.

Note: In the case of the Dark Magic Spell Doombolt and other spells which attack war machines directly, all hits are assumed to be against the chariot chassis at Strength 10, and are therefore not randomized.

No.

Yes.

Yes and No.

The chariots get their charge damage only if the magic movement spells states 'counts as charging if moved into hand-to-hand combat.'

No. Unlike other characters, the Champion character cannot leave his unit as he wishes, and this applies to magic spell movement as well. Some spells allow the breaking up of units, and these can target the Champion of a unit.

No.

No.

Yes.

Yes.

No tests are required when the unit is moved, however a unit subject to terror will still have to test at the start of its next turn.

Move the unit if within range, no guessing required.

No.

You don't have to have line of sight unless the spell states so.

Yes. This means that items such as the Black Armour of Nagash and the Heart of Avelorn that protect the wearer from a spell, but do not dispel it, would work.

Items that "ignore" the effects of magic, such as certain Bretonnian virtues, will likewise ignore the effects of spells cast with Total Power.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

No.

Yes. The Total Power card only takes effect when a spell is initially cast, so the spell can be dispelled in later turns and is taken off if Drain Magic is played.

The answers given for the "color decks" below were all made either by the Warhammer Design Team during the tenure of 4th edition, or with reference to the 4th edition Warhammer Battle Magic Rulebook. Although Colour Magic is now optional, it is still a part of the game for those who wish to use it, and it is assumed that the game designers rulings would still apply to 5th edition with equal weight. In those cases where there was clear contradiction with the 5th edition magic rules, this FAQ has applied the 5th edition rule.

Yes and no. The enemy model gets one last attempt to break free before it is taken off the table.

Earthblood fails.

They are removed again.

Roll the 2D6 for winds of magic, then roll D6 for the Earthblood mage. The Earthblood mage then takes his D6 out of the 2D6, the t of the 2D6 are then distributed evenly between the 2 players.

It is based upon the modified leadership value (the value for the unit leader, or general.

No.

Yes.

It does 3D6 hits (treat WS as 0).

No.

Dark Mist is a "remains in play" spell and can be ended in the players own Magic Phase.

Wardancers cannot use their special ability during the Magic Phase, and Chaos gifts cannot be used to give Chaos troops attacks during the Magic Phase. Chaos gifts can be used to re-roll daemonic saves, and to provide saves versus wounds.

Yes and yes.

A character that is a Mummy (Settra), Wight, or Wraith that are not in units are affected by Vanhel's Dance Macabre. Other characters (Necromancer, Liche, Vampire) are only affected if they are in units of Undead troops (where the Undead troops are affected by Vanhel's Dance Macabre).

No.

Yes.

He is effected regardless of his immunity.

Unless a spell specifically states that it does not affect Undead, it does.

In this case, the number needed is 10. You must be able to summon at least 5 complete models, not just 5 "models worth." Cavalry count as two models, so a roll of 10 still only gets you 5 models, but 5 must be summoned. Screaming Skull Catapults and chariots are exceptions. You need only summon one complete model (including its crew) to succeed in summoning new catapults and chariots.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No, new units must be raised at least 1" away from enemy units.

The Throne of Power saves based upon the bearers' initiative. A house rule is suggested that allows the Throne of Power to be treated as a chariot.

It does not affect the chariot when it is flying high, otherwise yes.

Yes.

Yes. The correct rule is printed in the Warhammer Armies: Orcs & Goblins book. If you fail deduct -1 from the D6 roll on the 'Eadbangerz Chart.

No. The Orc & Goblin player receives winds of magic cards the same as any other player.

The Hand of Gork should be allowed to move all Orcs & Goblins army units except monsters, Snotlings, Snotling Pump Wagons, Trolls, Ogres, and Giants.

The game designers suggest that such units be immune to panic tests while held by these spells. These units are still required to take combat break tests, and if they fail and cannot flee, they are automatically destroyed.

Magical item special rules override mundane weapon rules. Magical items override other special rules that come into conflict with them only if the result is 'bad' for the user of the magic item. So, for example, the effect of the Potion of Knowledge will effect a mage who is immune to psychology, as this is bad for the user of the item, but the Dread Banner will not effect an enemy unit that is immune to psychology, as this would not be bad for the user of the item (in fact it would be very good!). Please note that this is a guideline only, but it should help resolve most situations that occur in the correct 'spirit of the game'. We know this still allows the old 'item plus 2-h weapon combos', but we're not too worried about this, as they are rather limited in number and who can use them.

Magical effects which allow a model to strike first take precedence over normal strike order, including charging, initiative and non-magical double-handed weapon penalties. If both models have first strike ability, then resolve in initiative order, or if the initiatives are equal, then roll a D6. This does not apply if the wielder has a magical weapon, in which case roll a D6 at the start of each combat phase to see which takes precedence.

All characters can take at most 1 magic or runic weapon (if Dwarven), 1 ward, 1 bound spell, 1 magic item from the magic armour category or 1 item of runic armour (if Dwarven) and, provided the character is a Battle Standard Bearer , 1 magic standard.

No. Nowhere in the rules does it state that you have to do this, and there is a magic item whose power is to reveal enemy magic items.

No, the only exceptions to this are specifically stated. Some exceptions stated are Dispel Scrolls, Runefangs, the Dwarf Rune of Stone and Chaos Armour.

Yes.

No.

If the effects of the item are considered to be a bound spell, yes, otherwise no.

Yes they can be used to dispel the spell, and the item will be destroyed on a further roll of 6.

Assuming that it is otherwise legal, it is suggested that a character with one head should never be able to wear two helms or two crowns in the same battle. However, crowns can be worn with helms. See answer to above regarding how magic items interact with with other for more details.

No and no.

No.

Yes. Treat all "killed" or "dead" results as "destroyed." Some magic weapons and spells are so powerful that they will rip apart or obliterate wood and steel as easily as flesh.

Glancing blow rules are too ambiguous to resolve this question. If players cannot agree, roll a D6 at the start of the game. Items which directly affect the to hit, wound and save rolls would always apply.

No.

That character loses any magic level gained, and loses one randomly determined spell. The others are assumed to have been memorized by the spell caster, so he may continue to have them, even if not otherwise allowed to.

Only if he is an Orc or Goblin shaman.

No. Thus a wizard using the Book to get Necromantic spells cannot pick his spells, Dark Magic users cannot use dispels as power, High Magic users are not considered a higher level for purposes of dispelling, do not get an extra spell to discard at the start of the game and can not use power cards as dispels. Non-Skaven Warlocks would get no warpstone, non-Goblin shamans get no mushrooms.

Yes.

No and no.

Yes on all accounts. The Book of Nagash Magic Item card should allow Liches and Vampires to take it.

No. The Carstein Ring is limited to (Vampire Only) Settra is allowed to use items that are limited to (Vampire, Liche or Necromancer only).

No.

No.

Yes.

The die roll cannot be a die roll that the opponent makes.

No.

When a spell caster has a Familiar, and is mounted on a steed or monster it is assumed that the spell caster carries the Familiar with him. Therefore, the spell caster gets to move at the rate of his mount. When the spell caster stops moving, place the Familiar next to him.

Yes.

The character knows that an Assassin is in the unit, but may not target the Assassin with spells or missile fire. The Assassin may not 'surprise attack' the character with the Skull Staff.

No, No, and No. Although the character 'knows' the Gyrocopter is there, and even roughly where it might be, he can't attack it because he can't actually see it.

No.

Special saves only.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

No.

Make the roll to save the wound before the magical effect or multiplication of wounds occurs.

A weapon with the Dwarf Rune of Smiting generates its multiple wounds before the special save. This rune is an exception to the way all other magic weapons are treated.

Yes.

No, the rebounded wound affects the model that causes the original wound.

Yes. For a single model all to hits rolls are taken together, then all to wound rolls, then all saves for the victim. The only exception is when a model makes attacks with different initiative values (i.e. a character riding a monster, or in a chariot), in which case all attacks with the same initiative are made at the same time (i.e. for a character on a monster, roll the attacks for the character all together, and the attacks for the monster all together).

The Black Amulet only rebounds wounds cause by hand-to-hand combat attacks from other models, not wounds caused by 'devices' such as the Black Amulet or Rune of Spite. Spells that cause wounds during the Close Combat Phase would not be rebounded, although they may still be saved.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, treat him as a Necromancer in all respects.

No.

No. Once you use the Black Gem of Gnar, the affected models are effectively removed from the game and are ignored.

The unit is free to move and fight normally. If the effect of the gem wears off, then treat the champion or trooper as a stranded single character that must attempt to rejoin the unit whenver possible. Award victory points for the entire unit if it is defeated, even if a champion or a trooper model is still gemmed or stranded.

Items that target magic items (to destroy/disable) can work against the Black Gem of Gnar before it is activated, but not after.

No. The Escape Winds of Magic card can only be used when the spell caster would otherwise be killed, and the Black Gem of Gnar does not kill the spell caster.

The character with the Black Gem of Gnar can activate before he and his unit are run down by the chariot. Thus, the chariot/rider/harnessed beasts and the Black Gem of Gnar character are all frozen before the chariot causes any casualties.

The Gem bearer may activate the Gem as soon as he is in contact with an enemy model

No.

No.

Roll a D6 at the start of each combat to see which takes precedence.

Suggested Amendment: when armed with a non-magical double-handed weapon, magical first strike takes precedence. Roll a D6 at the start of each combat if the weapon is a magical weapon.

Yes.

No.

Yes and no.

Yes.

Note, however, that the Wizard himself is no longer able to retain Winds of Magic cards.

No.

Yes.

Yes.

Use the riding characters statistics.

No.

Both dice can be re-rolled.

Yes.

No.

No.

Yes.

Yes - these items effect all creatures capable of flight, regardless of their current mode of movement.

No. The Collar of Khorne worn by Flesh Hounds neutralizes magical attacks. Skaven special weapons are considered magical due to warpstone.

No. You must declare that you are drinking it at the start of your own turn.

Yes, however race specific effects, such as Night Goblins striking first with the Bad Moon Banner, will not affect other races, such as Orcs.

Only the Battle Standard Bearer may take a magic standard as one of his magic items. Other than Battle Standard Bearer s, only unit standard bearers in units that are allowed magic standards may take magic standards.

Roll a D6 at the start of each combat to see which takes precedence. Suggested Amendment: Magical first strike ability allows models with non-magical double-handed weapons to strike first.

No.

No. The reference to 'side' in the Battle Banner card text is referring to the 'side' of the hand-to-hand combat that the Battle Banner is involved in. The Battle Banner bonus only applies when the character/unit carrying it is involved in the combat.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, but only the figures in base to base contact with the bearer of the standard. Take these casualties at the beginning hand-to-hand combat every turn.

Yes.

No. This includes characters using Aldred's Casket of Sorcery (assuming the Casket has captured a spell). Although the character is unharmed, roll a D6 to determine whether the item is destroyed.

No.

The magical banner prevents the frenzied unit from pursuing. As a house rule, it is suggested that you roll a D6 at the end of each round of combat. On a 1-3 the banner does not provide the unit with its magical benefits, and the unit's frenzy causes the unit to pursue. On a 4-6 the banner works and the frenzied unit will not pursue.

Yes, assuming the character is using the Master Rune of Adamant. In all other cases, even if circumstances would give the character a 0+ or better armour save, treat it as a 1+ armour save.

Yes, the Orcs & Goblins characters can get any magic armour.

Yes.

The Dawnstone only allows the original armour save to be re-rolled, not the special save. The Special save of the armour may still be made.

No. This is a classic example of how the fictional fluff must take a back seat to the rules where the two conflict. While the card suggests that the effect of the shield is to interfere with the shooter's aim, in actuality what is being conferred upon the bearer is a simple armour save, which a bolt thrower's bolts will ignore.

The character pursues, the unit does not.

Yes

Yes

Yes.

Yes, this is specified on the card description for the magic item. Assume the character also has a supply of regular arrows.

The Bow can be used, but the arrow's special abilities only work against targets flying high.

No.

If the Sword of Destruction bearer is in base to base contact with the unit standard bearer, then the magic banner is nullified, otherwise it is not.

Note, if the magic banner is not affected by the sword of destruction, models in base to base contact with the Sword of Destruction bearer continue to gain the benefits of the magic banner.

The wielder may pick from the known items, or may pick randomly.

Yes.

Yes.

No.

He adds a mounted figure.

No.

Yes

No.

No. If a weapon multiplies a hit, then the multiple hits are applied against a single model.

If 1 wound will be turned into many wounds by the weapon, or some other magical effect will apply (such as a Frostblade's effect) make the roll to rebound the wound before the 1 wound is turned into many wounds or the magic takes effect, as per the Black Amulet. Thus, if the Master Rune of Spite rebounds a wound from a Frostblade, the attacker is not killed.

Note, a weapon with the Dwarf Rune of Smiting generates its multiple wounds before saves and rebounds can take effect. This rune is an exception to the way all other magic weapons are treated.

No. A Dwarf Character cannot have 2 magic items of the same type.

Yes. The special effect of the Master Rune of Spite is not considered an armour save.

The Rune of Luck can only modify die rolls that directly involve the character, and it cannot be a die roll that the opponent makes.

Yes

Yes.

No.

No.

No.

The Ring of Corin targets the entire device

The Ring of Corin would have to exceed the point cost of the runes. The war machine would still operate after its runes have been removed.

No.

No.

No.

No

The Warhammer Design Team have stated on more than one occasion (in both White Dwarf #201 and Citadel Journal #20) that the Rune of Forging cannot be placed on these warmachines. Under a strict interpretation of the wording in the Dwarf Army Book, it is permissible. It is suggested that players decide for themselves before playing whether they believe allowing this rune on these machines is unbalancing. One common house rule requires a separate Rune of Forging to be purchased for each barrel of the Organ gun. Another good house rule simply limits the Rune of Forging to one use per Rune per turn.

Yes, but once the Gyrocopter moves or shoots, it is visible for the rest of the game.

The Rune of Forging can be on more than 1 cannon as long as the set of runes on each cannon is unique.
The uniqueness rule for runes applies to all runes other than the Rune of Stone; this means that it includes the war machine runes.

Therefore, 2 organ guns that just have the Rune of Forging are illegal. On the other hand, 1 organ gun with (Rune of Forging) and another organ gun with (Rune of Forging, Rune of Disguise) is legal.

Yes.

Before any rolls to wound.

The Master Rune of Death affects everything, as to the points value, we're happy with them!

A runic item counts as a single magic item no matter how many runes are on it. Therefore, a Dwarf General can have 3 runic items with 3 runes apiece for a total of 9 runes held by 1 figure.

This also means that items that destroy/disable magic items will disable/destroy all runes on a given item.

Yes.

No.

No, the unit does not get to use the character's leadership under any circumstances.

Measure the shortest distance between a skirmishing model and the enemy unit. This is the side of the enemy unit the model must charge. If you cannot fit all the models along the side they must charge, then the excess models may not charge that unit that turn. You may move them around to an open side so they may charge in their next turn.

The skirmishers fill ranks. Remove casualties from models not in base contact to represent this.

The unit in skirmish formation suffers the same amount of damage as regular units.

House Rule: It is suggested that when Chariots and Night Goblin Fanatics damage units in skirmish formation that the number of hits be reduced by 1/2, minimum 1 hit.

Yes.

No, these restrictions are not applied to allies. This means two things:

1. The allied army is not a mini-army unto itself with restriction on 25% allied war machines, and 50% allied characters, etc.

2. The components of the allied army are not counted towards the percentages of the overall army. If the ally army contingent contains war machines, they do not count towards the 25% restriction on war machines for the entire army.

Yes. So, for example, no more than 1 Swordmaster of Hoeth unit could appear in a High Elf ally contingent, a unit of Halflings would have to be present in an Empire army to take a Halfling Hot Pot Catapult, Rat Ogres could not be taken without Packmasters, etc.

No. So, for example, a Chaos Army does not have to take a mandatory unit of Chaos Dwarf Warriors if they take Chaos Dwarf allies.

House Rule: Limit allies as follows: For every allied unit of rank and file troopers taken, 1 character and 1 war machine may be taken.

House Rule: The Warhammer Design Team suggest that allies not be allowed unless your opponent agrees to let you have allies in your army.

Yes.

No, The character is not technically dead.

No, the character is not technically dead.

No, The character is not technically dead.

No. Any model which is all one thing, all one model, is not able to be affected by this attack. A crewman for a cannon or similar war machine could be picked out, but a crewman on a chariot cannot be.

Yes.

House Rule: The Warhammer Design Team suggests that units that are immune to psychology are immune to the Giants bawling attack.

No.

It automatically wins combat by an unmodified -2.

The cost of a Hippogriff should be 145 points. Early printings of the Bretonnian book incorrectly listed it as 125 points, however later printings have corrected this error.

Yes.

It pivots from the back rank.

No.

Yes, these Virtues only effect the knights that they are given to.

No.

No, the unit must counter-charge

After the Virtue's extra attacks are rolled.

The Green Knight's save is in fact a regeneration effect, and can be taken whenever he dies, no matter what killed him. It doesn't prevent him from dying, it just keeps him from staying that way.

The latter - the Bretonnian player is assumed to have demonstrated sufficiently chivalrous behavior already.

No and no Victory Points.

No. Even though one might still need to roll 2+ to hit and 2+ to wound with an autokill weapon, the rules of the Tress forbid the use of an autokill weapon regardless of how the weapon actually slays a model.

The Direwolf FAQ Council Interpretation could not decide this question based on the published rules. Roll a D6 to decide if the magic of the Tress defeats to-hit and to-wound penalties everytime it occurs, or come to an agreement before the game starts.

Yes. However Chaos God specific magic items, Gifts and Rewards (Khorne Only, Slaneesh only, etc.) cannot be used by Chaos Dwarves.

The Champion is treated as having the same BS as the regiment he is leading if he fires a Blunderbuss.

It is 1/2.

No Please note that ally lists are not reciprocal, in other words it is possible for a race to appear as allies of another race, while not having that race in their own ally list. This simply reflects the fact that to get a race as an ally there must be a good chance of a small contingent of their troops serving in a large army of troops drawn from the main list. In the case of Dark Elves and Skaven, for example, it seemed sensible to me (Jervis) that small contingents of Dark Elves could serve in a Skaven army, but not vice-versa.

No.

Characters can join either unit, but note that with the exception of Champions they will not benefit from the unit's special rules. Thus a character with the Scouts can't infiltrate, and a character with the Dark Riders can't make a free march move at the start of the battle or fire and flee.

Yes

Yes.

Yes

The Witch King always comes with the chariot, but may leave it voluntarily during the battle.

The panic test is taken first, and if passed, then the must charge the enemy test is taken.

Yes.

The Witch Elves lose hatred when they frenzy.

Yes, he can be challenged.

Dark Elf Assassins can hide in the following units: Executioners, Black Guard, Corsairs, Warriors, Spearmen, City Guard, Crossbowmen. It should be noted that Dark Elf Assassins are male, and cannot disguise themselves as scantily clad female witch elves. See e.g. Warhammer Armies: Dark Elves, p. 40 "the Witch Elves steal away the male children who they raise in the temples of Khaine."

No.

No, the Witch Elves strength when attacking is 4.

Yes, but not their magic weapons (see Assassins above).

The only Hag Queens that can be purchased are the special characters listed.

Yes, he must take this as equipment. It costs 5 points. It is considered magical, but does not fill his magic item slot. No other Dark Elf characters may have the cloak.

Yes.

6.

4+.

Yes, just like any other army in the situation without any Wizards.

No. If the a character was allowed to ride a monster it would specifically state that in the Dwarf Army book, since it does not, it is not allowed.

The strength increase affects armour saves as well. There is a White Dwarf battle report that handles this incorrectly.

Multiple models.

No.

The only Slayer King available is the special character. The special character is not a high king and therefore cannot be put on the Throne of Power. A Generic Dwarf General may be considered a High King and put on the Throne of Power.

Yes.

No

Yes. The runesmith casts the lightning spell according to the normal rules of spellcasting and may use any power cards he holds in the Anvil to reinforce the spell against dispell attempts. The rules in the older army book are modified to account for the new magic system.

No, they already have the Rune of Stone.

At the end of the Magic Phase.

They are treated as individual characters.

No.

Maximum guess range is 12".

No. If the Empire army was to be able to take these characters, they should be described in the Empire Army Book. The Chaos Army book specifically describes the Minotaur lords, and Beastman champions allowed for Chaos Armies.

Yes.

No. Only the units in the hand-to-hand can have their rank bonus apply.

No.

No.

No and no.

Only if the standard affects the parent unit's leadership (i.e. the Valorous standard and the Banner of Courage).

Yes.

No.

The only special characters who can replace the empire general are Karl Franz, Magnus the Pious and Kurt Helborg.

Ice magic is considered part of "Colour Magic" in 5th edition, and may therefore only be used with the prior approval of your opponent. If Ice magic is used, it is suggested that the limitation contained in the 4th edition book Arcane Magic be applied, i.e., the army should contain at least one unit of Kislevites.

No.

Yes.

No. A lot of people would like to arm all the war wagon crew members with the long range rifle so that they can shoot at specific enemy figures.

No.

Use the Tank's statistics for all spells, use the commanders leadership (leadership 10) for leadership checks.

They always escape.

Yes.

No.

No.

Yes

Not until the War Altar is destroyed.

Yes.

No.

Since the pistoliers have 2 guns, it is assumed that 1 is always loaded and can be used to stand and shoot, shoot in the missile phase, or shoot in hand-to-hand combat. Note that the pistol shot attack uses the pistoliers BS instead of WS to determine hits.

Yes. How many hands it takes to deflect a shot with a sword is never defined, so the ability to wield a shield and a sword during the shooting phase is not excluded under the rules. The intent is to give Swordmasters both options.

A unit of White Lions which contains the High Elf General is immune to both psychology and break tests. They will not auto-break if they lose combat to a fear-causing unit that outnumbers them.

According to the Italian Lizardman book and White Dwarf #215, Q&A, the maximum number is 10. It is assumed that later printings of the Lizardman book in English will include this rule.

Yes.

Roll a D6 at the start of each combat to see which takes precedence. Suggested Amendment: Magical item special rules override mundane weapon rules. The Kroxigors will strike first.

No, they must fight the challenge on foot.

Yes for both.

They still use 3 dice.

Use 2 dice.

Pay for the actual stegadon from the regiments.

Randomize between the Skinks & Krozigor as normal. If a Skink is hit, randomly determine which one to see if the next target will be another Skink or a Kroxigor.

No. They always save on a 6.

No. The absence of a "1" in front of the Warlord heading is a misprint.

Yes.

House Rule: It is suggested that an Orcs & Goblin army with a unit of Black Orcs not be allowed to get a unit of Black Orcs in a Chaos Dwarf ally contingent.

Yes.

House Rule: The Warhammer Design Team suggest that due to the Orcs & Goblins mistrust of Hobgoblins that when the Orcs & Goblins take Chaos Dwarf allies that no Hobgoblins be allowed in the ally contingent.

Yes.

Technically yes, however the Warhammer Design Team have endorsed a house rule to the contrary.

No, individual Fanatics cannot be moved with the Hand of Gork.

Place the Fanatic right next to one of the sides of the unit (on the outside of the unit). Choose the side that is closest to the Fanatics end position in the unit.

The player can choose what direction they go on the turn they come out.

Yes

The Fanatics are released in a random direction.

The Fanatics are released in a random direction.

Yes and no.

No.

Yes, Yes, and Yes.

Only regular Gobbos.

No.

No.

No, pump wagons must turn at the start of ther movement and then move in a straight line

Select the direction first, then roll the 2d6.

Yes.

Yes.

The only parts of the armour save not modified by the attackers strength are the parts provided by the Protective Tattoos (+1) and the Savage Orc Shaman in Unit (+1). The rest of the Savage Orc armour save (riding boar for +2, shield for +1, Standard of Shielding for +1) are modified by the attacker's strength.

Yes.

With no units within 12", the dice roll needed to pass a Waaagh! test is 1, so it's impossible to fail. As stated, eating mushrooms does not increase your chances of failing a Waaagh! test (only the consequences if you do!). This means that by eating mushrooms alone (no units within 12"), your Night Goblin Shaman cannot fail his Waaagh! test so there isn't really any point in taking one.

Yes.

They are treated as individual characters.

Yes.

Each herder gets 1 attack, so a 25mm x 50mm base with 2 herders gets 2 attacks.

Yes.

Hunter teams in fighting ranks can be attacked, Hunter teams in the second rank cannot be attacked in place of Squigs in the front rank. However, once wounds are applied to the unit, if all the Squigs in the front rank are killed, then wounds are applied to the Hunter teams.

Yes.

Yes.

No.

Technically, since the bearer of the Sword of Destruction cannot carry a second magic item, and Chaos Armour is classified as such, a Khorne champion with the Sword of Destruction is an illegal combo. If you wish to play with a house rule where the Khorne Champion's armour is a Chaos Reward, the Sword of Destruction may be taken. In such a case, treat the Chaos Armour as if it were ordinary heavy armour.

D3 wounds once the creature is wounded (p. 82 is correct, p. 114 is wrong).

Yes.

Yes. The driven off rule applies in this case (the Slaanesh character is only immune to break tests).

No.

1.

6.

No.

Yes, riding a Disc of Tzeentch doesn't imbue a character with mystical protection from cannons, in the same way that models which fly can also be hit.

Yes.

As with any cavalry model, only the mount's Movement is used unless it has its own attacks, in which case its Attacks and Weapon Skill characteristics are also used. The Steed of Slaanesh's higher Toughness confers no benefit to its rider and is given for comparative purposes.

Yes.

No.

A regenerating creature that is caught fleeing is considered dead, and cannot regenerate wounds to return.

No, only Skaven war machines count.

They are treated as individual characters.

No, he can only operate one missile weapon.

No, Ikit must be the general.

No.

No.

Yes.

If attached Globadiers are in the path of a charge they will move around the regiment , so that charging troops do not get in base to base contact with them.

Evading Globadiers can't stand shoot. Otherwise Globadiers follow normal rules.

Use the statistics for the steam tank for the poison wind globes, it takes 5 wounds to kill the steam tank. A '6' is always a failure.

No and no. Snikch fights using the special rules in the army book - he leaves the hiding in units stuff to the ordinary Assassins of the Clan Eshin.

No. He gets a massive 7 attacks in hand-to-hand combat!

They get two as per their profile - they do not carry an extra hand weapon or Weeping Blade

No, but they can be included in units of Gutter Runners.

No.

Yes and no.

Yes.

Yes.

The model has to roll 1 time.

Only when they are in combat.

No, they are different from Witch Elves in this respect.

No.

The Screaming Bell does not affect itself, nor Warpfire Throwers, nor Jezzails teams. The Skaven Doomwheel is affected. If other Screaming Bell's are present, they are affected.

No. They are immune to psychology and never break.

No.

No.

Yes, but Warpfire Throwers cannot stand and shoot at chargers attacking from flying high.

No.

2 Beastmen die, and another has 1 wound, the extra wounds from the Jezzail are lost (same as cannon balls or attacks against rank and file by characters wielding the Bone Blade).

Yes, as long as the Warpfire thrower has line of sight to the enemy unit it may shoot at it.

Line up the units. Only swarm bases in contact with enemy models may fight.

No.

The save is modified by its current strength.

No and yes.

No. The Warlock Engineer is only a crewman and is not a wizard.

When both the rats and the Engineer are killed.

Yes.

No.

No, each Packmasters must control at least one beast of his own.

They are part of the pack, so other Skaven do not need to test.

Only the rats may lap without first winning combat.

Yes. Attacks from jezzails, warpfire throwers, weeping blades, warplock pistols, poisoned wind globes, plague censers and doomwheel lightning should be considered magical attacks.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

No.

One - the profile in the bestiary section of the army book is incorrect.

Yes. Those around Settra can use his higher WS, but would not choose to use his horrible BS. See the section in Magic Items on the Mummy Tomb King's Crown.

Settra can use things that are Vampire, Necromancer, or Liche only.

(Vampire Only) does not equal (Vampire, Necromancer, or Liche only).

(Liche Only) does not equal (Vampire, Necromancer, or Liche only).
