When a slayer's strength increases to the toughness of his opponent, is that increased strength used only for rolling to wound or does it affect armour save as well?

Can I place the Slayer King on a Throne of Power? Can I have a Slayer King in my army aside from the special character?

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.

May a Runesmith use additional power cards stored in the Anvil to reinforce the casting of Lightning bolts?

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.
