Common Weapons (Points Values)

Points values are a useful means of working out evenly matched armies. By allocating a fixed points value to each kind of warrior, monster and war machine it is possible to field armies to a mutually agreed total. A game with, say, 1,000 points on each side will, theoretically at least, be an equal contest of skill and generalship. In order to assemble armies to a fixed points value you will need access to the 'army list' for your chosen force. Each army has its own list defining the costs of each troop type and character, and how many of each an army is normally permitted to use. Each Warhammer Armies book contains the army list for that army as well as exhaustive background, special rules, 'Eavy Metal painting guides and other useful information. Although we don't have space to provide all the army lists or points values in the Warhammer game itself, we can take a look at how the points value system works and provide some examples.
