Warhammer Magic

Warhammer Rulebook

Dwarfs have a unique system of runic magic, which involves enscribing items with magic runes to give them special powers. The full rules for runic magic items, and more detailed descriptions of the runes, can be found in Warhammer Armies - Dwarfs.

Dwarf Runes Summary

In the Warhammer game magic items are represented by magic item cards. The magic items are divided into different types, each of which has its own distinctively coloured and styled card decks. For example, the magic weapons have a red border, are decorated with the sword motif, and have the words 'Magic Weapon' emblazoned on all four sides. The decks are divided into the following categories. We suggest you start by sorting these into different piles. Magic Weapons Magic Armour Wards Enchanted Items Wizard Arcana Magic Standards Bound Spells In addition, there are some special magic items which are used only by one race. The cards for these items have a blue background colour and indicate the race which can use them, but they also fall into one of the above categories. Sort these cards out into separate decks by race. Once you have sorted out the cards into their correct decks it is suggested you keep them separate in future. We find zip-lock bags are ideal for keeping the decks apart, but elastic bands will do the job just as well. The magic items are arranged on cards primarily for ease of reference. If you are playing a game at a friend's house or a club, you can work out your army and take along the cards for your magic items. This way you will have the rules ready to refer to during the game. Note that there is no obligation to take the cards along as they are never dealt, shuffled or played as the winds of magic cards or spell cards are. You might instead prefer to note down the rules on your roster sheet for example.
