Saludos, Se\u00f1ores de la Guerra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemos recibido varias peticiones de las FAQ que deber\u00edan tenerse en cuenta jugando a la sexta edici\u00f3n de Warhammer<\/strong>. Son las mejores FAQ que ha habido (por encima de Burjassot, que aunque la mayor\u00eda de veces acertaban, en ocasiones su argumentaci\u00f3n iba en contra de las FAQ de Direwolf).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Por supuesto, todas ellas estar\u00e1n en el Reglamento Anotado que Elendor est\u00e1 preparando (y traducidas, claro est\u00e1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aqu\u00ed lo ten\u00e9is (HOJO<\/em> que es largo).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Q. Where can I find the corrected Unit Strength table which
      \nreplaced the table on page 41 of the Rulebook?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. In Warhammer Chronicles 2004
      \nS. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 page 114<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. How does the sole remaining model of a formerly ranked unit move?
      \nFor example, if a unit of Empire hangunners is reduced to 1 model,
      \nhow does the sole remaining model move? Does he still have to pay
      \nto wheel, etc.? Does he still cause enemy unit to form up on him?
      \nOr does he follow the Single Models Movement Chart?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. He moves like a single model on foot – freely, like a character on
      \nfoot (and thanks his lucky stars he’s still around!).

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. When is Cavalry Not Cavalry?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. The rule that models on a 25 mm x 50 mm base are classed as cavalry
      \nhas thrown up some points regarding beasts such as Chaos Hounds and
      \nDire Wolves, and creatures like Bull Centaurs. To clarify this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      All models on a 25 mm x 50 mm base have a Unit Strength of 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Models on a 25 mm x 50 mm base which consist of a rider on a steed
      \nwith a single Wound are classed as cavalry and follow all of the rules
      \nas such.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Models on a 25 mm x 50 mm base which consist of only one creature (such
      \nas a Bull Centaur) are classed as cavalry with the following exceptions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      They do not gain a +1 Armour save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      They may benefit from using two hand weapons, or the hand weapon
      \nand shield bonus, as if on foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      They use the cavalry rules for spears.

      \npage 24<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. Do units which are bought with the same Troop choice have to be
      \ndeployed together?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. Unless specifically noted otherwise (e.g. war machines, Empire
      \nDetachments, Skaven Weapons Teams) separate units are always deployed
      \nseparately.
      \nS. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 page 112<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. Can two characters join each other, thus forming a unit? What if
      \nthey are mounted on chariots or monsters?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. Characters may form a unit with each other, only if they are on
      \nfoot or a cavalry mount. Characters mounted on larger creatures and
      \nchariots may not form units at all. Remember also that characters
      \non a flying monster may not join a unit of flyers, as described in the
      \nrules for flyers.
      \nS. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 page 112<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. Can a hero mounted on a Great Eagle join with another single Great
      \nEagle (purchased from the special or rare slots of the army) to
      \nform a single US7 unit capable of taking out ranks?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. No. I know that Flying Unit is an actual sub-category of flyers
      \nbut I would think the intent is obvious. To nail it on the head, I
      \nwould say that a character on a flying monster cannot join a
      \nunit of flyers or another flying monster.
      \nS. Gav Thorpe – Warhammer Design Team<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. Can single non-character monsters and creatures, such as Giants,
      \nSpawn of Chaos, etc. join each other, thus forming a unit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. No. You cannot form a unit from two Giants, for example, or three
      \nChaos Spawn.
      \nS. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 page 112 \/ Gav Thorpe – Warhammer
      \nDesign Team (Online Q&A on the Games Workshop Warhammer Forum)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Q. Can a character join a non-character monster or creature, thus
      \nforming a unit? For example, could a Goblin Big Boss mounted on
      \na wolf join a Giant and form a unit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A. Yes (excluding flying monsters). I always like the idea of a
      \nGoblin Big Boss and his forty feet tall ‘minder’\u2026

        DECLARING CHARGES<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Q. Here is the situation: Friendly unit A is engaged in close combat
        \nwith enemy unit B from a previous turn. In the current turn
        \nfriendly unit C, who happens to be in the front zone of enemy unit B,
        \nwants to charge into the combat but the entire frontage of enemy unit
        \nB has already been taken up by friendly unit A. Is friendly unit C
        \nallowed to charge the flank of enemy unit B?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. No. I think that if you allow this to happen, you make a mockery
        \nof one of the most important dynamics of Warhammer strategy \u2013 moving
        \nyour troops into a position to get the most advantageous charge. This
        \nmay seem a bit odd, particularly with skirmishers as in this example,
        \nbut the rules clearly state that to charge in the flank\/ rear, the
        \nmajority of the charging unit must be in that zone, and there are no
        \nexceptions. To get a flank or rear charge, you should have to
        \npositively move the unit into a position where it can do this, rather
        \nthan simply fill up the front with other stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Co-ordinating units to get simultaneous front and flank charges is
        \na defining tactic of Warhammer and should be something that is
        \ntricky to achieve, otherwise the game will lose any sense of the
        \nimportance of planning and maneuver.
        \nS. Gav Thorpe – Warhammer Design Team \/ Rulebook – page 46<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. Can a unit redirect a charge against an enemy unit that it could
        \nhave originally charged?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. No. You can only redirect a charge against a unit if you could
        \nnot have declared a charge against them normally, but can now do so
        \ndue to the enemy fleeing.
        \nS. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 page 112<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. If a enemy unit chooses to flee, and I choose to redirect my charge
        \nagainst a newly revealed enemy unit, can I both run down the fleeing
        \nunit and charge into the newly revealed enemy unit provided I have
        \nenough movement to perform both actions?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. No. First, remember that you do not declare whether or not you
        \nwill be redirecting a charge until after the fleeing unit has
        \ncompleted its movement. At that point, you must make a decision on
        \nwhether or not you wish to chase the fleeing unit or redirect into
        \nthe newly revealed enemy unit. It is critical to follow this order as
        \nin some cases the fleeing unit may not flee very far, and actually
        \nprevent the second enemy unit from being revealed as a target.

        CHARGE RESPONSES<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Q. How do you determine if a defending unit is ineligible to perform
        \na stand and shoot reaction?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. To determine if a unit can perform a stand and shoot reaction, you
        \nmust calculate the actual charge movement expended (taking into
        \naccount wheels, difficult terrain, etc.) by the charging unit(s).
        \nIf one or more charging units can expend half or less of its charge
        \nmovement to complete the charge, then the defending unit may not
        \nstand and shoot.

        \nTeam \/ Direwolf FAQ Council Interpretation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. If a unit fails a charge against a defending unit that has chosen
        \nstand and shoot as a charge reaction, does the defending unit still
        \nget to stand and shoot?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. Yes, as long as the failed charge brings the charging unit into range
        \nof the defender’s missile weapons.

        Q. If a character joins a war machine and has a missile weapon, could
        \nhe stand & fire with that weapon?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. Unless specifically acting as crew (ie, an Engineer who used his
        \nability the previous turn) a character who joins a war machine unit
        \nis not considered crew and so may stand & shoot.
        \nS. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 page 114<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. What happens when the monstrous mount of a rider is killed by a
        \nstand and shoot reaction prior to the monstrous mount beginning
        \nits charge move? Does the rider continue to attempt the charge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. In cases where the stand and shoot is resolved before the charger
        \nmoves, the rider will be on foot before the model starting
        \nmoving. In this situation, the rider should attempt to complete
        \nthe charge using his own charge move.

        Q. What happens when the monstrous mount of a rider is killed by a
        \nstand and shoot during its charge move? Can the rider continue
        \nto attempt the charge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. In cases where the stand and shoot is resolved after the charger has
        \nstarted moving (which only happens if the charger starts out of range
        \nof the defending unit’s missile weapons) the charge fails automatically
        \nat the point the monstrous mount was killed.

        Q. What happens when the chariot a character is riding in is destroyed
        \nby a stand and shoot reaction prior to the chariot beginning
        \nits charge move? Does the character continue to attempt the charge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. In cases where the stand and shoot is resolved before the charger
        \nmoves, the character will be on foot before the model starting
        \nmoving. In this situation, the character is allowed to be placed
        \nanywhere within 2″ of the destroyed chariot and he should attempt to
        \ncomplete the charge using his own charge move.

        Q. What happens when the chariot a character is riding is destroyed by a
        \nstand and shoot during its charge move? Can the character continue
        \nto attempt the charge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. In cases where the stand and shoot is resolved after the charger has
        \nstarted moving (which only happens if the charger starts out of range
        \nof the defending unit’s missile weapons) the charge fails automatically
        \nand the character is placed anywhere within 2″ of the destroyed chariot.

        RALLY FLEEING TROOPS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Q. If a character is in a unit that flees, he flees with the unit.
        \nIf the unit is below 25% of its original size, it cannot rally –
        \ncharacter included. However, what happens if the character is the
        \nonly model left in the unit? Is he still part of that unit if he
        \nbreaks and flees? Can he then not rally, since his \u00abunit\u00bb is below
        \n25% of its original size?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. If the character is the only one left, the unit has been destroyed
        \nand therefore the character is no longer a part of it. Since the
        \ncharacter is above 25% of their own starting size they will always
        \nbe able to rally.

        COMPULSORY MOVES<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Q. When a unit that utilizes random compulsory movement (e.g. Chaos
        \nSpawn, Snotling Pumpwagon, etc.) pursues another unit off the board,
        \nand returns in its next compulsory move phase, can its move that
        \nturn take it into contact with the enemy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. Yes. As units that utilize random compulsory movement do not
        \ndeclare charges, they are not restricted from coming into contact
        \nwith an enemy unit on the turn they return to the table.
        \nS. Rulebook page 76<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        MOVE CHARGERS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Q. Where can I find guidance on how to align the combatants during
        \n\u00abawkward\u00bb charges, charges involving multiple charging units or
        \ntarget units, and \u00abclipping\u00bb?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. In Appendix Six (Rules Commentary) of the Warhammer Rulebook
        \nS. Rulebook pages 265-268<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. In the Appendix Six (Rules Commentary) guidance covering charges
        \ninvolving multiple charging units, it indicates that the player moving
        \nthe charging units must divide evenly the frontage of the target unit
        \nbetween the charging units and shows examples of how to resolve this
        \nusing ranked units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        When one or more of the charging units is a single model (such as
        \na chariot, giant, lone character, etc.) does the rule on page 268
        \nabout equally dividing the frontage of the target unit between
        \nthe charging units still apply?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. Yes, the rule about splitting the frontage of the target unit
        \nstill applies. The Appendix Six (Rules Commentary) guidance does not
        \nprovide an exception for single models. The maximize chargers rule
        \nfound on page 52 of the Rulebook is still applied, however it is simply
        \napplied to the portion of the target unit each charging unit has been
        \nallocated. Note that resolving the alignment of the combatants
        \nin this manner has the important benefit of reducing clipping
        \nsituations.
        \nS. Rulebook page 268 \/ Direwolf FAQ Council Interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. During the move chargers step of the movement phase, if a charging
        \nunit catches an enemy unit which just fled from their charge (thus
        \ndestroying the fleeing unit) and the charging unit’s full charge move
        \nwould move it into contact with an additional enemy unit, does this count
        \nas pursuit into fresh enemy? Or is the charging unit forced to stop 1″
        \naway from the additional enemy unit as a charge (or redirected charge)
        \nwas not declared against it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. The rules do not allow us to come into contact with an enemy unit
        \nduring the Move Charges step of the movement phase unless A) valid
        \ncharge or re-directed charge was declared against the enemy unit we wish
        \nto contact or B) the unit was \u00abdrawn-in\u00bb to the combat per the rules
        \ncovering multiple targets in Appendix Six of the main rulebook.
        \nTherefore, in the example above, the charging unit is forced to stop 1″
        \naway from the additional enemy unit.

        Q. If an unengaged unit classified as \u00abMoves as a Monster\u00bb in the
        \nSingle Models Movement Chart is charged in the Flank or Rear does
        \nit have the ability to turn and face the chargers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. No. The updates in Warhammer Chronicles replaced the wording on
        \npages 54 and 55 of the rulebook in regards to flank and rear charges
        \ninvolving single models. Anything larger than a man sized character on
        \nfoot now has a clear front\/flank\/rear for combat purposes and his
        \nopponent will get the flank \/ rear bonuses if the model is charged
        \nin the flank \/ rear.

        \npage 114.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. Situation: Unit A wants to charge unit B, however there is a patch
        \nof difficult ground in the way. If Unit A goes through the difficult
        \nground it will fail the charge. If unit A wheels a bit it will be able
        \nto contact the enemy unit, but the wheel will bring fewer charging
        \nmodels into contact with the enemy than if Unit A was able to complete
        \nthe charge by moving straight ahead. Can unit A wheel around the
        \ndifficult terrain to make the charge in this situation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. Yes. As outlined in the Charging rules, the first rule of charging is
        \nto bring as many models from the charging unit into combat as possible.
        \nAs \u00abfewer\u00bb is greater than \u00abzero\u00bb, Unit A must perform the wheel and
        \ncomplete the charge.

        Q. Single Models that move \u00abAs Monsters\u00bb or \u00abAs Skirmishers\u00bb are
        \ndescribed as \u00abno need to turn or wheel\u00bb and can \u00abpivot on the spot
        \nwith no penalty\u00bb. Does this mean these models can zig zag or
        \notherwise change direction several times while charging?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. No. When charging, move single models exactly like other units,
        \nexcept instead of the single wheel allowed, the model may be rotated
        \nonce in place for no movement penalty. In other words, single models
        \ncan only change direction once when charging.

        \nInterpretation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Q. What happens when the charging rules would force a charging unit
        \nto move off the board? For example: a target of a charge flees, is
        \ncaught, and the required full charge move through the target’s final
        \nposition ends would take the charging unit off the board. Is the charging

        Q. Can you change the position of a character within a ranked up
        \nunit in the movement phase?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. As long as you\u2019re not charging, you can change the position
        \nof a character, though he must still remain in the front rank
        \nif possible (except for Skaven\u2026).

        Q. When a unit that pursued another unit off the board returns, do you
        \nplace the entire unit back on the table and then move it, or do you
        \nexpend movement to move it back onto the table?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. I always play it that the unit has to physically move on to the
        \ntable, as if its front rank started the phase touching the outside
        \nedge of the board. This isn’t directly supported in the rules,
        \nbut is the intent.

        Q. If a unit has pursued another unit off the board, when in its

        A. It arrives back on the battlefield when it would normally move.
        \nSo, most units would arrive back on the battlefield in the Remaining
        \nMoves phase (as they cannot charge). Units like Spawn of Chaos will
        \narrive back in the Compulsory Moves phase (otherwise they would never
        \nactually get back onto the table!)

        A. Move the unit back on as close to the position it left as possible.

          Q. If a character is further away than a friendly unit in combat,

          A. A character can be picked out if he is the closest ‘target’.
          \nTarget means a unit that the shooting models are allowed to
          \nshoot at, and so would not normally include units in combat, and
          \ncertainly doesn’t include units that are out of line of sight.

          \n\n\n\n

          Q. The rules on targeting characters mounted on monsters are causing
          \nus a few problems. So, when does a monster count as being bigger
          \nthan cavalry? For example, the Empire Pegasus comes with a 40mm
          \nbase, but a Wood Elf Unicorn from the Preview Army List has a
          \ncavalry base?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          A. Yes, some difficulty arises because over the years some
          \nmonsters have been mounted on a variety of base sizes. As we go
          \nthrough the Army books and miniatures range (in 6th edition), all
          \nmonsters will eventually be packaged with 40mm or 50mm bases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Any mount with more than 1 Wound is a monster and is treated as
          \nbeing larger than cavalry for the purposes of targeting. Anything
          \nthat is a ‘large target’ is bigger than anything else, including
          \nother monsters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          If you have monsters on cavalry bases to fit with your units, we
          \nsuggest you mount them on 50mm bases (like Daemonic Mounts and
          \nTyrion’s mount, Malhandir). This helps the unit rank up more
          \neasily. If they are normally fielded as independent models, such
          \nas a Pegasus, a 40mm base is fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Models on 40mm and 50mm bases are treated as the same size for
          \npurposes of targeting unless they are a large target.

          Q. For purposes of targeting characters, are Models on 20mm and 25mm
          \nsquare bases treated as the same size?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          A. Yes. Both base sizes are used for characters considered to be
          \nroughly man sized and on foot and are treated as the same size for
          \npurposes of targeting.

          Q. Can single models that are smaller than the unit they are adjacent
          \nto (e.g. a single character on foot adjacent to a unit of 5+ cavalry
          \nmodels) claim the \u00abproximity\u00bb rule and thus be protected from
          \nstandard shooting attacks?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          A. Yes. A character in close proximity to a rank and file unit of 5+
          \nmodels can only be singled out if he is larger. Note that the
          \nonly current specific exemptions to the \u00abproximity\u00bb rule discuss

          \nhe \u00abprotected\u00bb?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Q. Can models outside the range of missiles (mundane or magical) be
          \nkilled?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          A. Yes. In Warhammer, the targeting and the removal of casualties is
          \ndone on a unit basis rather than on an individual model basis as
          \nin other game systems. This means that as long as one model in a target
          \nunit is within range of the firing\/casting models, then the entire
          \ntarget unit is subject to being killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Note however that it is the owning player who removes casualties from
          \nhis units. Casualties are removed from the back ranks of ranked units,
          \nand as the owning player wishes in regards to skirmishing units. This
          \nmeans that the owning player may remove casualties from the back of
          \nskirmishing units in order to preserve those models that are closest
          \nto the enemy.

          A. In this case, a hit anywhere on the base of a chariot or
          \nmonster (including hitting the rider) should be randomised to
          \ndetermine where the ‘big’ hit actually hits.

          A. No. Skirmishers do not form into ranks outside of close combat
          \nand thus the maximum amount of models that can be hit by a Bolt
          \nThrower is one. Note that a skirmish unit is required to adopt the
          \nloose skirmish formation as soon as combat ends.

          Q. A skirmishing unit with two models outside of the woods, and the

          \nskirmishing unit count as being in soft cover?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          A. No. Having part of your unit out of cover is like being a little bit
          \npregnant. Either you’re completely in cover or you’re not. If the unit
          \nshooting has line of sight to any models that aren’t in cover, the
          \nunit being shot at can be targeted without the cover penalty. The
          \nsame answer would apply if the situation involved a ranked unit with
          \nthe front rank outside of the woods and the remainder of the unit
          \ninside of the woods.

          \nrider and mount pick different targets or must they shoot at the same
          \ntarget?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          A. In general, the normal rules for shooting apply. If there is a
          \nunit which can be reached by the shooting attack with the shortest
          \nrange, the model cannot Divide Shots. Otherwise (i.e., no unit can
          \nbe reached by both shooting attacks) the Divide Shots rule applies
          \nand the shooting attacks can choose different targets. Note that
          \nif the only target within range of the breath weapon and the missile
          \nweapon is a single model, the Divide Shots rule also applies and
          \nthe shooting attacks can choose different targets.

            Q. If a unit charges into the rear\/flank of an enemy, but in the

            A. Rank bonus is claimed and calculated at the start of the
            \nClose Combat phase, so the rank bonus is nullified this turn. The
            \nflank\/rear bonus is calculated at the end of the Close Combat phase,

            \npursuing unit is charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. When a combat involves charging units from both sides, the chargers
            \nstrike in the order in which they charged. However, models may not
            \nstrike against an enemy that has charged them until that charging unit’s
            \nattacks are resolved. All units striking first are allowed the normal
            \ncharge bonuses for lances, etc. A unit hat has been charged and is
            \nnot charging itself will always strike after all charging units – only
            \nthe order of the charger’s attacks are relevant. Note that Empire
            \ndetachments have their own special rules so that when counter-charging

            Q. If a unit chooses to expand frontage during combat is this

            Q. I have two units attacking one enemy unit, one from the front and
            \nthe other on the flank. Due to casualties being removed, the enemy
            \nunit now only has models in contact with the ‘front’ unit. Has this
            \nlegally brought my flanking unit out of combat and thus allow it to
            \nmake an overrun move?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. No, there are still models remaining in the unit it is engaged in
            \ncombat with. In this case, the easiest thing to do is \u2018fudge it\u2019
            \nslightly – just slide the flanking unit across a little so that it
            \nis in contact with at least one enemy model.

            Q. I have two units attacking two enemy units all embroiled in a single
            \ncombat. During the combat one of my units wiped out the only enemy
            \nunit which it was in base to base contact with. Does my unit still
            \ncount as being in combat, or is it free to act independently in
            \nsubsequent turns?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. All units involved in a combat are subject to combat resolution and
            \nresulting Break tests. However, if a unit is no longer in contact with
            \nthe enemy due to the elimination of the only enemy unit it was in
            \ncontact with, it does not count as being in combat in subsequent turns
            \nand thus can charge, shoot, be shot at, and so on.

            Q. In a situation where one side is completely wiped out in a combat,
            \ndo you still have to determine the combat’s result?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. No! If one side is completely wiped out, the other side has won
            \nwith no need for a Break Test.

            \n\n\n\n

            Q. How do you work out close combat attacks that do multiple wounds
            \nagainst units of creatures with multiple Wounds (such as Trolls,
            \nOgres, or Fellbats)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. When fighting rank and file troops with more than one Wound, use
            \nthe same procedure you would for normal troops. Roll to hit, roll to
            \nwound, make saves. After this, roll for each wounding hit to see how
            \nmany actual wounds are inflicted by the weapon. The maximum number
            \nof wounds per hit is the number of Wounds the enemy models have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            For example if you have a magic sword that does D3 wounds and are
            \nfighting Fellbats (which have 2 Wounds each), you would have to count
            \nresults of 3 as 2 wounds inflicted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Once the total number of wounds have been rolled, add them all up
            \nand remove whole models as normal. To continue the previous example,
            \nif you did 1, 2, and 3 wounds from three hits, this is 5 wounds and
            \nso you remove two Fellbats and one Fellbat has a single wound
            \nremaining.

            Q. How do you kill a champion in close combat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. To kill a champion in close combat, the enemy must generally
            \nspecifically allocate attacks at the champion. Unless specifically
            \nnoted otherwise (as in the case of the champion in a Tomb Kings
            \nLight Chariot unit), if no attacks are allocated at the champion,
            \nthe champion will still be killed if enough wounds to kill all
            \nrank and file members of the unit are inflicted. While Champions may
            \nhave differing weapon skills, abilities, and in some instances carry
            \nmagic items, they are still considered to be rank and file members of
            \nthe unit.

            \nyou remove the enemy champion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A. No.

            Q. If attacks allocated on the champion cause more unsaved wounds than

            A. In a non-challenge situation the excess unsaved wounds are lost.
            \nPer the Warhammer Rulebook Errata excess unsaved wounds on a champion
            \nno longer carry over onto the rank & file. Note however that in a
            \nchallenge situation, the enemy can score up to +5 overkill points
            \nover the champion\u2019s wounds characteristic.

            A. No, they cannot. Champions remain part of the command group at the
            \ncenter of the front rank of their unit.

            A. No. If attacks are allocated against ordinary troops, then any
            \nexcess wounds caused by those attacks are not carried over onto
            \nenemy characters fighting alongside them.

            A. The pursuing unit will go around that unit if at all possible.

              \ntaken?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Q. How does psychology work with monster mounts (and chariots) and
              \ntheir character riders? Does the rider\u2019s psychology take precedence?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. The character\u2019s psychology takes precedence. So, if the character is
              \nImmune to Psychology, the entire model is Immune to Psychology. Also, if
              \na character rider is frenzied, then it must always charge (using the
              \nmovement of the monster). However, there are some exceptions to this.
              \nThese exceptions are : Fear, Terror, Stupidity and Frenzy. A Fear or
              \nTerror causing monster (or chariot) passes on immunity to fear\/terror
              \nto its rider. If the monster (or chariot) suffers from Stupidity, or is
              \nsubject to Frenzy, then these are out of the control of the rider, and
              \nthe entire model may suffer from it. In all other cases, the entire
              \nmodel uses the character rider\u2019s psychology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Further Direwolf FAQ Council clarification: In these cases where the
              \nmount’s Stupidity or Frenzy affects the rider, it is the movement effects,

              \napply. However, as well known, friendly fire isn’t friendly at all,

              A. No test required. The panic test for friends destroyed is very
              \nspecific about enemy magic and shooting again. In this case, most

              A. No. Even single models with less than five wounds on their

              \ntest for friendly units within 4″? Do single models with less than

              \nsituations?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. In the Warhammer Chronicles Errata section, the wording on

              A. This is determined at the start of each phase – if it’s a single

              Q. Concerning panic from flank and rear charges, the rules say that you
              \nuse the Unit Strength (five or more) to require the check, but then
              \nsay at the end that no test is required if the charging unit numbers
              \nless than five models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Q. Do failed panic tests \u00abcascade\u00bb? That is, does a unit failing a panic
              \ntest force nearby friendly units to take a panic test (as failing a
              \nbreak test does)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. No. Panic does not cascade. If, in the player’s subsequent turn, the
              \nunit that panicked is still fleeing and is close enough to friendly
              \nunits to force them to take a panic check, one must be taken. None of
              \nthe listed cases for taking a panic test is based on another friendly
              \nunit failing a panic test.

              FEAR<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Q. When do you resolve Fear tests for an enemy unit that wishes to
              \nstand & shoot?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. Use the following procedure: The Fear causing unit declares a
              \ncharge. The charged player says, \u00abThe unit will stand and shoot.\u00bb
              \nCheck to see if the charging unit is in range; if it is, then the
              \ncharged unit must take a Fear test. If it fails the test and is
              \noutnumbered, it will flee as normal and not make its stand and
              \nshoot charge reaction. If for any reason it does not flee, then the
              \ncharged unit may stand & shoot as normal.

              \n\n\n\n

              Q. How do you resolve situations where a single model causing fear is
              \nin the front rank of a unit that does not cause fear?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. If a single model (e.g. a character) that causes fear is in a unit
              \nthat doesn’t cause fear then any tests or effects that the fear causes
              \nis only applied to that character, not the entire unit he is with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              For example, a unit would have to take a fear test if a unit with a
              \nsingle fear causing model in it charges them. However if that test is
              \nfailed then the unit only flees if the fear causing character by itself
              \nhas a higher Unit Strength than the unit being charged. If the test is
              \nfailed and the unit requires 6’s to hit, then it is only 6’s to hit the
              \nsingle fear causing model, not the rest of the unit he is with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              In an instance where a unit declares a charge against an enemy unit with
              \na single fear causing model and the unit declaring the charge will come
              \ninto contact with the single fear causing model, then the unit declaring
              \nthe charge must also take a fear test and, if the fear test is failed,
              \nthe unit will not charge.

              \n\n\n\n

              Q. For purposes of determining if fear causing units outnumber their
              \nfoes to force an auto-break situation, do you determine it by the
              \nlargest fear causing unit engaged in the combat or do you use the
              \ntotal Unit Strength of the fear causing units and compare it to the
              \ndefender’s combined Unit Strength?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. Neither. If a unit is outnumbered by fear-causing enemies, then
              \nit automatically breaks. Operative word is unit, not side, so it is
              \nworked out on its Unit Strength versus total Unit Strength of fear-
              \ncausing enemies it is actually fighting (i.e. in base to base contact
              \nwith), in the same way that break test are rolled for individually
              \nrather than per side.

              Q. Does placing a fear (or terror) causing character in a unit
              \nactually make the unit immune to fear (or terror)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              The Fear \/ Terror liability section on page 82 of the Rulebook states
              \n\u00abObviously a large monster is less likely to suffer from fear or
              \nterror itself. There is not way a huge Dragon is going to be scared
              \nof a Troll for example. These special liabilities also apply to any
              \nrider of a large monster (or steed) too, so a Dragon rider wouldn’t
              \nbe afraid of a creature that would frighten him on foot. They also
              \napply to units that are accompanied by fear or terror causing
              \ncreatures, a skink unit with a Kroxigor would be immune to fear
              \nfor example.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Does the last sentence only applied to mixed units such as Rat Ogres
              \n& Packmasters, War Hydras & Apprentices, etc., or does it apply to
              \ncharacters as well?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. The way I would see it most easily solved is to say that the
              \nexample quoted on page 82 refers only to mixed units including some
              \nmodels in the unit causing fear, others not – and that it does not
              \nrefer to characters at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              This would mean a fear causing character does not make a unit immune
              \nto fear – and it does say on page 100: \u00abif a unit of troops panics, or
              \nis forced to flee because of a Fear of Terror test, then any character
              \nwho is part of the unit must also flee even if he is immune to panic,
              \nfear, or terror.\u00bb

              A. Test once per unit, as each is found to be in range.

              Q. Say Shadowblade, or some other Assassin, is in a unit that is charged
              \nby a Fear-causing creature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              The unit fails its Fear test and requires 6’s to hit. Does the Assassin
              \nalso require 6’s to hit, or do you make a separate test on his own,
              \nprobably higher, Leadership? In other words, the Assassin cannot pass
              \non his Leadership to the unit, but does the unit in effect pass on its
              \nLeadership to him?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. If, for some reason, a Character does not pass hi Ld on to a unit he
              \nhas joined, then he may make a separate Ld test. In most cases, this
              \nrule won’t make a difference; if the unit flees (from Terror or Panic,
              \nfor example), the Character has to flee with it, regardless of Ld
              \nvalues.

              A. Yes, each unit is only forced to take one Terror test per
              \nBATTLE. After taking the first Terror test, units treat Terror
              \ncausing units as causing Fear.

              Q. Would a frenzied unit which lost a combat, auto-break from a
              \noutnumbering fear causing enemy in the same round?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              A. First, Frenzied units that lose combat always take break tests,
              \njust like any other unit. Second, the break test isn’t to see if you
              \nare defeated. If you have to take a break test you are already
              \ndefeated, that’s what losing the combat resolution means. So
              \nregardless of the outcome of a break test, a frenzied unit has
              \nalready lost its frenzy, just by having to take one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              An outnumbering fear causing enemy will therefore normally
              \nbreak a formerly frenzied unit, as the state of frenzy is lost
              \nprior to having to take a break test.

                \nequipment option than his unit ? Like a Greatbeard uses Handweapon
                \nand Shield while the rest of the Longbeards in combat use their
                \nGreatweapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                A. Only if the champion is armed with different weapons than the
                \nrest of the unit. If he is armed exactly the same as the rest of the
                \nunit, then both the champion and the unit must use the same weapon
                \ncombinations.

                A. Yes. The pistol rules clearly state that a model armed with a pistol

                  CHARACTERS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Q. How do characters interact with units of differently sized models?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A. Unless otherwise forbidden by the rules (or in a Q&A), a
                  \ncharacter can always join a unit, regardless of their mount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A unit always moves at the speed of its slowest model, so if a
                  \ncharacter on foot joins a cavalry unit, they would move at the
                  \ncharacter\u2019s Movement rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A character only gains \u2018Look out, Sir!\u2019 if part of a unit of \u2018similar
                  \nsized models\u2019. The same applies to targeting characters within 5″
                  \nof a unit. This does not change, whether they are actually within the
                  \nunit or not. So a character on a horse can still be picked out if he
                  \njoins a unit of infantry, for example. For these purposes, a character
                  \non a monster base (40mm or larger) counts as being bigger than normal
                  \ncavalry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A character in a chariot cannot join a unit unless it is a chariot
                  \nunit, and only a character in a chariot may join with another chariot
                  \nor chariot unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A character takes up the space of an equivalent number of rank and
                  \nfile models as their base fills. For example, a cavalry model would
                  \ntake up one space in the first rank and one space in the second rank
                  \nof an infantry unit. These ranks still count as complete if four
                  \n\u2018spaces\u2019 wide or more, whether that space is filled with a rank and
                  \nfile model or a character. See the diagrams on page 113 of Warhammer
                  \nChronicles 2004 for examples.

                  Q. There are shooting limitations at characters near units. Can they

                  A. They can be freely charged.

                  A. They still have it (and still count as a unit of two models). If
                  \nthey decide to split up then you can choose which of the characters
                  \nretains the
                  \ncaptured standard.

                  A. If there is space in the single rank for him to be positioned where
                  \nhe cannot fight, he may refuse the challenge. If the entire rank is
                  \nengaged, he cannot avoid the challenge, just as if he were on his own
                  \n(the challenger hunts him down like the cowardly dog he is!).

                  \ncharacters involved in the same combat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A. If there is a lone character involved in a combat (even a multiple
                  \ncombat where there are more characters involved), the owning player\u2019s
                  \nside can never refuse a challenge.

                  Q. Can you can use the multiplying affect of multiple wound weapons
                  \nto rack up a bunch of overkill on one wound champions (or characters
                  \nwho are starting the combat round with one wound) in a challenge
                  \nsituation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  To illustrate: In a challenge, can a Character with 3 Attacks on his
                  \nprofile and wielding a multiple wound weapon gain +6 combat resolution
                  \npoints from trashing a unit champion with only one wound on his
                  \nprofile (or an enemy character starting the combat round with only
                  \none wound)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A. Number of Wounds doesn’t matter, because a character with 3 wounds
                  \nreduced to one, or a champion starting with one wound is all the same
                  \nfor purposes of multiple wound weapons in a challenge. When attacks
                  \nare allocated (when excess wounds may be wasted, unlike attacks
                  \nagainst rank and file) then each unsaved wound is multiplied.
                  \nIn this case, you can tear the champion apart and get your +6 combat
                  \nresolution (1 Wound plus up to 5 overkill), even though he has only
                  \none wound.

                  Q. How do weapons\/items that affect all models in base to base contact
                  \nwork when held by a character (or champion) in a challenge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A. The models engaged in the challenge are considered to be in single
                  \ncombat during the challenge and may not attack or be attacked by models
                  \noutside of the challenge. Therefore the weapon \/ item only affects the
                  \nopposing model in the challenge (and the bearer if it would normally
                  \naffect him).

                  \nengaged in an ongoing challenge be charged by another enemy unit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A. Yes. Simply because a single model is engaged in a challenge
                  \nand cannot be attacked by a model outside of a challenge, does not mean
                  \nthat it is impossible for an additional enemy unit to charge the single
                  \nmodel. The enemy may wish to do this to add ranks, Unit Strength, the
                  \nflanking bonus, etc. to the overall combat result.

                  Q. A Battle Standard can only be captured if the Battle Standard Bearer
                  \nis killed in close combat, but will he still lose the standard if
                  \nbroken in combat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A. A Battle Standard will not automatically drop the banner if it is
                  \nbroken in combat. However, if he is broken and subsequently run down,
                  \nthen it is captured.

                  \n\n\n\n

                  Q. Can a Battle Standard Bearer take any standard, even those that can
                  \nonly be taken by specific units? For example, can an Orc Battle
                  \nStandard take a \u2019goblin only\u2019 banner (though the effects will only work
                  \nif he joins a unit of goblins)? Or can an Icon Bearer take the Icon of
                  \nRakaph (which is Tomb Guard or skeleton warriors only)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  A.The restrictions apply to the bearer. So, an Orc Battle Standard
                  \ncannot carry a Goblin only banner. However, an Icon Bearer can carry
                  \nthe Icon of Rakaph as he is effectively a Tomb Guard character.

                    Q. After the rider or crew is killed, when do you take the
                    \nmonster reaction test?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    A. If you are not in close combat then you take the monster
                    \nreaction test at the end of the phase in which the rider or
                    \ncrew are killed. If you are involved in close combat the
                    \nrules clearly state that the test is not taken until after
                    \nthe combat is entirely resolved. If the monster is
                    \nvictorious in the combat, then it states to take the test
                    \nin the first turn when the monster would be free to move
                    \nand act normally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    If you lose a combat and flee, but are not caught by the
                    \nenemy, the book is silent on when to take the test. If we
                    \nuse the timing of a victorious monster as a guide, then the
                    \ntest should be taken the first turn when the monster would
                    \nbe free to move and act normally. Therefore, in cases where
                    \nthe monster loses a combat and flees, take the monster
                    \nreaction test at the beginning of the turn after it rallies.

                    Q. If the monster reaction test is failed, when do you apply
                    \nthe results of the monster reaction chart?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    A. It depends on which reaction you roll. Also remember that
                    \nthe monster only performs actions in the owning players turn.
                    \nSo for example if a result of 1-2 (monster runs away) is rolled
                    \nthen it will be applied in the owning player’s compulsory movement
                    \nphase. If a result of 3-4 (monster charges) is rolled then it will
                    \nbe applied at the declare charges step in the owning player’s
                    \nmovement phase. If a result of 5-6 (shooting \/ guarding
                    \nthe body of its master) is rolled then it is applied immediately
                    \nbut will only come into play if the monster has a ranged attack
                    \nor breath weapon and an enemy unit is within range during the
                    \nowning player’s shooting phases.

                    Q. How do mixed units of monsters and handlers that are not defined
                    \nas skirmishers (e.g. Dark Elf War Hydras) work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    A. These units do not count as skirmishers even though the models are
                    \nnot ranked up. When determining what the unit can charge, or for the
                    \npurposes of flank\/rear charges by enemy units, use 90 degree arcs
                    \ncentered on the monster itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    When the unit is in close combat, it forms up following the rules
                    \nfor skirmishers – ie those in range get into base-to-base contact,
                    \nthose our of range form up behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The models in the unit move at their own Movement value as long as
                    \nthey remain within 1″ of each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Also note that any character allowed to join the unit counts as
                    \n‘riding’ the monster for the purposes of any special rules they may
                    \nhave. For example, if a Dark Elf Beastmaster joins a War Hydra unit,
                    \nthen it does get to ignore Monster Reaction tests if all the \u00abcrew\u00bb

                      A. Yes flyers should be on square bases. In the future, all
                      \nflyers will also come with square bases of the appropriate size
                      \n(generally 40mm for Fell Bats, Carrion, Terradons, Warhawk Riders,
                      \nand other things with a wide wingspan).

                        KILLING BLOW<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        Q. Is Killing Blow effective against \u00abUnits of Flyers\u201d which consist of a
                        \nflying mount and an approximately man-sized rider? What about against
                        \nriderless cavalry models such as Bull Centaurs and Centigors? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        A. If a model consists of both a rider that would be placed on a 20mm or
                        \n25mm square base if alone on foot and another creature, but the model
                        \ncannot be separated into components (e.g. Standard Cavalry models, Pegasus
                        \nKnights, Terradons, Warhawks, Daemonic Cavalry, etc.), then Killing Blow
                        \nis effective vs. the model as a whole (excluding chariots).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        In cases where the model can exist as two (or more) separate parts
                        \nand one (or more) of the components would be placed on a 20mm or 25mm
                        \nsquare base if it was by itself on foot, Killing Blow is only effective
                        \nvs. that component(s) of the model (e.g. a character in a chariot, a
                        \ndragon rider, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        Bull Centaurs and Centigors can not be separated into a component which
                        \nwould be placed on a 20mm or 25mm square base (in addition to the fact
                        \nthat they are larger than approximately man-sized) and Killing Blow is
                        \ntherefore not effective against these models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        A. You cannot regenerate a wound caused by a Killing Blow.
                        \nNote that for the purpose of combat resolution, use the
                        \nremaining wounds of a model slain by Killing Blow.

                        \n\n\n\n

                        Q. Can a model with Regeneration suffer more wounds than are on
                        \nits profile? In other words, if a Troll suffers 4 wounds
                        \ndoes it have to regenerate all 4 wounds, or only the 3 wounds
                        \non its profile?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        A. A model does not suffer more wounds than it started with. The
                        \nonly time excess wounds have any importance is during a Challenge
                        \n(see the Overkill discussion below). As mentioned in a previous
                        \nQ&A, an attack that does multiple wounds cannot inflict more wounds
                        \nthan the model struck has, and they do not carry over from model
                        \nto model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        For example a ball from an Empire Great Cannon ploughs through a
                        \nunit of Trolls, hitting and wounding three of them. Each suffers
                        \nD6 wounds – let’s say the rolls are 6, 5, and 2. Since no Troll
                        \ncan take more than 3 wounds (because if the wounds were carried over
                        \na Troll that wasn’t hit could take damage, which would be odd), the
                        \nnumber of wounds inflicted is actually 3, 3, and 2. On average that
                        \nwould be 4 wounds regenerated at the end of the phase, so one Troll
                        \nis killed outright and the unit has one wound carried over. Note
                        \nthat this does mean that it is potentially tricky to kill the last
                        \nmodel in the unit, as there is always a 50\/50 chance of the model
                        \ngetting back up again, but I guess that’s why they call it
                        \nRegeneration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        In challenges, this would normally mean no chance of Overkill
                        \nwounds, although I would suspect that hacking apart a regenerating
                        \ncreature would have just as important an effect on morale as
                        \nobliterating a non-regenerating one. So, to take this into account,
                        \nif the model fails to regenerate, any excess woulds inflicted count
                        \ntowards Overkill as normal. E.g. a Strigoi Vampire Count with the
                        \nCurse of the Revenant bloodline power is in a challenge and suffers
                        \n5 wounds after its ward save. It only needs to make three Regeneration
                        \nrolls (the number of wounds it had at the start of the combat).
                        \nHowever, if all three rolls are failed and the Vampire dies, the total
                        \n5 wounds inflicted count towards combat results.

                          Q. How do skirmishing units form into rows (ranks) when charged by
                          \nmultiple units?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          A. The charging player controls where the skirmishing unit forms
                          \ninto rows (ranks) as you move the charging units in the order in
                          \nwhich the charges were declared. Per the updated text and diagrams
                          \ncovering skirmishers and charges found in the errata in Warhammer
                          \nChronicles, when the skirmishers are charged the charging unit is
                          \nbrought into base contact with the closest skirmisher model and then
                          \nthe charging unit is halted. The charging unit is not aligned against
                          \nthe skirmishing models. The skirmishers form up against the charging
                          \nunit as explained in the skirmishing section of the Rulebook and the
                          \ncharging player then proceeds with further charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Therefore, the first step is to move the first unit that declared a
                          \ncharge into contact with the skirmishing unit. The second step is for
                          \nthe skirmishing unit to form up with its front facing that unit. The
                          \nthird step is to attempt to move the remaining chargers into contact
                          \nwith the skirmishing unit. Note this may result in the skirmishing
                          \nunit being hit in the flank or rear by the remaining chargers or for
                          \nthe remaining charges to fail.

                          \nNo other characters (mounted, riding in chariots, etc.) can join

                          Q. How do characters and command models (standards, musicians, and
                          \nchampions) in a skirmishing unit rank up when engaging in close combat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          A. A Skirmishing unit ranked up for close combat should be thought of
                          \nlike a regular, ranked formation for the duration of the combat. The
                          \nStandard Bearer, Musician, Champion, and any characters must generally
                          \nbe placed in the front rank. However, note that the general Skirmishers
                          \nrules do not have special allowances for command and character models
                          \nthe way the Beast Herd rules do. The rules for Skirmishers may prevent
                          \nthese models from reaching the front rank, if a model does not have
                          \nenough movement to reach the fighting line, or if the ranked up
                          \nformation is not wide enough. In that case these models should be
                          \nplaced in the closest rank to the front they can reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          When assigning placement due to limited space, the Standard Bearer has
                          \ntakes precedence and must bump the other models back, then the Musician
                          \nand Champion, and characters next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          As noted in their respective sections of the Rulebook, character and
                          \ncommand models add little or no benefit to a unit if they are not in
                          \nthe front rank. A Standard Bearer will not add +1 to combat resolution,
                          \na Musician will not break a tie, a Champion cannot attack, and
                          \ncharacters are considered \u00about of the game\u00bb (note that if the enemy
                          \nsomehow engages a Champion or character in a rear rank, they may
                          \nfight back as normal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          In subsequent turns a character, if not fighting, may move to replace
                          \na fighting trooper in his movement phase. However, there are no rules
                          \nfor similarly moving command models within the unit if they are
                          \nstranded away from the fighting line. It is suggested players ignore
                          \nnormal casualty practice, and instead remove killed models from where
                          \nthe wounds occur in the fighting line. During the Redress the Ranks
                          \nphase, models can be shuffled forward to fill the vacated fighting
                          \npositions. In this way a stranded Standard Bearer, Musician, or
                          \nChampion may reach the front rank. Benefits would apply starting with
                          \nthe first close combat phase each respective model is in the front
                          \nrank.

                            A. No. It is stated that they can move normally, but not that they

                            \ndegree LoS for the purposes of standing and shooting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            A. No. Per the rulebook, \u00ab\u2026for charging, stand & shoot reactions,
                            \netc, the model needs to be facing the enemy as normal.\u00bb

                            \nshoot through a friendly model in the same unit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            A. No. If a model in a Fast Cavalry unit can not draw LOS from its
                            \nbase to its target without going through a friendly model, it may not
                            \nfire.

                            Q. Can a character in a fast cavalry unit shoot in a 360 degree arc?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            A. Only if the character himself has the Fast Cavalry rule. Also note
                            \nthat characters without the Fast Cavalry rule may not shoot if the
                            \nunit marches.

                            A. No. As specified in the Fast Cavalry rules, the improved LoS only
                            \napplies to models with the Fast Cavalry rule and only applies to
                            \nshooting.

                            A. No, as described in the rules for fast cavalry, they use normal

                            A. Per the errata in Warhammer Chronicles, an unlimited number of
                            \nreforms may be performed, though no model may move more than its
                            \nmaximum movement distance.

                            A. No. This was an error printed in the Special Rules Summary Appendix
                            \nand subsequently corrected in the Warhammer Chronicles errata.

                            \nvoluntarily flees a charge, can it move in that turn?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            A. No. The ability to move is limited to when the unit rallies on

                            Q. If a Fast Cavalry unit involuntarily flees (from fear, terror,
                            \npanic, etc.), and rallies on its next turn, can it move as normal?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            A. No. The ability to move upon rallying is limited to when the unit
                            \nrallies on the next turn after it has VOLUNTARILY fled a charge.

                            A. No. Per the errata in Warhammer Chronicles, any character model
                            \nmay join a fast cavalry unit and move with the unit, but they do not
                            \nbenefit from any of the special rules. However, please note that if
                            \nyou join a character on foot to a unit of fast cavalry, the character
                            \nmay slow the unit down as all units are restricted to moving at the

                              A. Yes. Writing down previous guesses pretty much reflects how
                              \na ‘real’ artillery captain would work.

                              A. No. When the crew is not attached to the machine, a war machine
                              \nis considered to be a single model and if it has less than 5 wounds
                              \non its original profile then its destruction by the enemy will not
                              \ncause a panic test.

                              Q. When a war machine unit destroys itself via a misfire do friendly
                              \nunits within 4″ have to take a Panic check at the end of the phase?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              A. No test required. The panic test for friends destroyed is very
                              \nspecific about enemy magic and shooting again. In this case, most
                              \nsoldiers are just waiting for the whirly-gun of doom to blow itself
                              \nup. They’re pretty used to this type of behaviour.

                              Q. Is a war machine\u2019s crew that is separated from the
                              \nwar machine (due to fleeing from combat, panic, etc.) treated
                              \nas a normal unit for purposes of causing panic tests from being
                              \nwiped out, run down by a charging enemy, fleeing past friends, etc.? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              A. Yes. No exceptions for war machine crews in regards to
                              \nthese types of panic tests are given in the Rulebook.
                              \nRemember that if a separated war machine\u2019s crew has been reduced
                              \nto only a single model to apply the panic test exemptions
                              \ngiven for single models with less than 5 wounds on their
                              \nprofile.

                              \nphase from enemy shooting or magic are they required to take
                              \na panic check?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              Q. Is it true that if the machine model is destroyed by shooting
                              \nor magic, that the surviving crew have to take a Panic test (assuming
                              \nthat the size of the war machine unit was four models or less)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              A. Yes. While crew losses from enemy shooting or magic does not
                              \nforce the war machine unit to take a panic test, no such exemption
                              \nexists for loss of the machine.

                              A. No. A war machine may not be fired until the turn after
                              \nit has been re-crewed.

                              Q. When the crew of a war machine is reduced in size to the point
                              \nwhere the machine can only be fired at a slower rate, when exactly
                              \ndoes the slower rate take effect?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              A. This takes effect after the next time it is fired. In other words,
                              \nthe war machine can fire again one more time before having to take
                              \nextra time to reload.

                              A. No. Full victory points for a war machine unit are scored
                              \nif the machine has been destroyed or its entire crew has been
                              \nkilled or abandoned the machine.

                              Q. When a cannonball hits a war machine unit do you randomize to
                              \ndetermine what is hit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              A. No. A cannon ball is treated as a thin template at thus hits
                              \nwhatever falls under the line it passes through. The section on
                              \nrandomizing hits on warmachine units applies to fire from missile
                              \nweapons and magic missiles and does not apply to templates. In
                              \naddition, remember a war machine is not a model with multiple parts,
                              \nit is a unit with multiple models.

                                A. Yes, as they have many parts that are wood or metal (i.e.
                                \nunliving). Note that Undead Chariots are also immune to poison.

                                Q. A Chariot (or unit) pursues a fleeing unit, and rolls higher
                                \nthan the fleeing roll. However, the fleeing unit has a smaller
                                \nfrontage that allows it to avoid a nearby wood (or difficult terrain),
                                \nwhile the chariot unit, moving straight towards the fleeing unit,
                                \nwill have some of its models coming across the woods. What happens ? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. The pursued unit is destroyed as normal, and the Chariot(s) will
                                \nmove into the woods and suffer hits.

                                Q. Is it alright to charge a Chariot in such a way that the Chariot is
                                \nonly touching a single model in an enemy unit? Basically, is there a
                                \nrule against clipping with Chariots? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. Strictly, there is no rule to stop such behaviour, and in some
                                \ncases it is unavoidable or appropriate. However, deliberately turning
                                \na chariot so when it charges it clips the enemy\u2019s unit is bad form,
                                \nand to be frowned upon. See page 266 of the Warhammer rulebook for a
                                \nfuller discussion on the horrid creature that is \u2018clipping\u2019.

                                Q. Strictly speaking and according to the rules for Chariots, impact
                                \nhits are resolved before combat. So, can you add the +1 bonus to
                                \nArmour save by using a mundane hand weapon and mundane shield
                                \nagainst the impact hits from a chariot? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. Yes. It’s still in the Close Combat phase, just before anything
                                \nelse happens (with the notable exception that the resolution of wounds
                                \ncaused by warpstone vapors from Skaven Clan Pestilens plague censers
                                \nis resolved before impact hits).

                                Q. When a friendly character in a Chariot engages in a challenge, how
                                \ndo we resolve it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. Regardless of the challenge situation, a character in a Chariot is
                                \nconsidered to have stepped down from the Chariot for a challenge
                                \nand therefore does not benefit from the Chariot’s enhancement to
                                \nhis armour save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                In addition, regardless of the challenge situation, the Chariot’s
                                \nattacks are not lost. If the enemy character engaged in the challenge
                                \nis in a unit made up of multiple models, all the chariot attacks
                                \n(impact hits, crew, and beasts) strike the enemy unit. The enemy
                                \ncharacter can only attack the friendly character per the rules for
                                \nchallenges, and the enemy unit can attack the friendly Chariot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                If the enemy character is a single model the friendly Chariot can
                                \nattack the enemy character as if the Chariot was in the challenge,
                                \nwith one exception: when the enemy character is riding a monster,
                                \nimpact hits are applied against the monster, not the rider. In
                                \nthis situation the enemy character (and his monster) can strike
                                \neither the friendly character or the friendly Chariot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                Also, remember that creatures pulling the Chariot can only attack
                                \nenemy directly in front of them.

                                A. This means that creatures pulling the Chariot can only attack
                                \nenemy models in their front zone. This includes enemy models
                                \nin corner to corner contact in their front zone. The creatures
                                \nmay not attack enemy models in their flank (or rear) zones due to
                                \nthe restrictions imposed by harness and reins.

                                Q. If a character is engaged in a challenge where he is considered
                                \nto have stepped down from his Chariot, and his Chariot is destroyed
                                \nduring the combat, does the character still suffer the S5 hit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. No. In the opinion of the Direwolf FAQ Council the S5 hit only
                                \napplies to situations where the character is considered to be in the
                                \nchariot at the time the chariot is destroyed. As the character has
                                \nlost his armour save bonus due to stepping down from the chariot
                                \nand is considered to be fighting on foot at the time, applying the
                                \nS5 hit for the character being thrown from the chariot does not
                                \nappear appropriate in this circumstance.

                                Q. In a situation where a Chariot begins a turn stuck in difficult
                                \nterrain (e.g. from pursuit or overrun during the previous close
                                \ncombat phase, new woods from the Acorn of Ages, etc.) can the
                                \nChariot move (or charge), or is it now stuck for the remainder of
                                \nthe game?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. Strictly by the rules, unless the Chariot is compelled by a
                                \npsychology (e.g. frenzy, failed panic test, etc.) to move, then
                                \nit is stuck for the remainder of the game. Page 127 of the
                                \nRulebook states \u00abChariots cannot voluntarily move over obstacles

                                \nhits, and the enemy unit is within 2″ of the edge of the difficult

                                \nbeing thrown from the Chariot to complete the charge? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                A. Yes, the rules state that you can place the character anywhere
                                \nwithin 2″ of the destroyed Chariot, and there was a legal
                                \ncharge declared against that enemy unit. The owning player could
                                \nnot place the character into combat with a unit within 2″ that the
                                \ncharge was not declared against.

                                  The text that is unclear:
                                  \n\u00abhis opponent is allowed to dispel any spells that remain in play
                                  \n(key text under debate)\u2026\u2026In addition, these spells can be
                                  \ndispelled in the player’s own magic phase using any Power dice not
                                  \nbeing used to cast spells, as Dispel dice.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. Only the spells noted with the rule \u201cRemains in Play\u201d or
                                  \n\u201cLasts One Turn\u201d are \u2018remains in play\u2019 and follow the rules for such
                                  \ncreatures. Other spells may endure beyond the current turn, but are
                                  \nnot \u2018remains in play\u2019 and do not follow those rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  This means that ONLY spells with the specific tag of \u201cRemains in Play\u201d
                                  \nor \u201cLasts One Turn\u201d = ‘remains in play’ per page 139 of the rulebook.

                                  If a spell is not tagged as such (and the spell’s description doesn’t
                                  \nspecifically grant the ability to dispel it in subsequent turns) then
                                  \nthe spell provides a lasting effect which can NOT be dispelled in

                                  Q. If a Wizard or his unit is engaged in close combat with enemy models
                                  \nis the Wizard allowed to cast spells? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. There is no general rule preventing a Wizard from casting spells while
                                  \nhe or his unit is in close combat, but specific spells may not be castable
                                  \nin this situation. Spells specifically defined as \u00abMagic Missiles\u00bb,
                                  \nfor instance, cannot be cast while the Wizard or his unit is engaged in
                                  \nclose combat, and some other spells explicitly cover this situation in
                                  \ntheir description. Further, a spell cannot be cast at a unit in close
                                  \ncombat unless its description explicitly allows it to do so and many spells
                                  \nrequire line of sight. These factors, taken together, generally restrict
                                  \nthe available targets for the Wizard’s spells. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  Note however, that nowhere in the rules does it state that the act of being
                                  \nengaged in close combat blocks line of sight\u2026..only models and terrain
                                  \nblock line of sight. This means that in instances where a Wizard’s line
                                  \nof sight is not entirely blocked by other models, the Wizard may still be
                                  \nable to draw line of sight to potential targets. This also means that
                                  \nWizards who are riding on Large Targets or whom are Large Targets by nature
                                  \nmay still be able to draw line of sight to potential targets, even if
                                  \ntheir frontage is fully occupied by enemy models (who are not also Large
                                  \nTargets).

                                  Q. Can a single enemy unit be affected by multiple ‘Remains in Play’
                                  \nor lasting effect spells which do not specifically state that
                                  \nthis is allowable \/ outline the affects?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. There’s no problem with casting multiple spells on the same unit,
                                  \nand normally the effects will be cumulative \u2013 i.e 2 Flames of The
                                  \nPhoenix would each have chances of causing damage. On one-off effects,
                                  \nsuch as Rain Lord, then the effect is a blanket rule which won’t be
                                  \nimproved with multiple castings \u2013 in this case, you can’t make them
                                  \nany wetter with two spells than you can with one.

                                  Q. If a character has joined a unit and the unit gets affected

                                  \nthe character if he leaves the unit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. No. The spell affects the unit, and characters can choose to
                                  \nleave the unit and so be unaffected. Of course, if the unit was
                                  \ndestroyed around him, leaving him the only one in the unit, the
                                  \nspell would keep affecting him – there is no unit to leave
                                  \nanymore!

                                  Q. If a character is affected by a spell with a lasting effect,
                                  \nand he joins a unit, does the spell effect transfer onto the unit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. No. The spell effect will continue to effect the character,
                                  \nbut will not be transferred to the unit he has joined. If
                                  \nthe spell was transferred to the unit, situations would arise where
                                  \nthe character would no longer actually suffer from the spell (e.g.
                                  \ndamage spells resolved as shooting hits). Also if the spell was
                                  \ntransferred to the unit, the character could leave the unit in
                                  \nthe following movement phase and no longer suffer from the
                                  \nspell per the Q&A above!

                                  \nIf yes, is the magic bound spell item completely destroyed or
                                  \ncan it still be used (if it\u2019s a weapon with a bound spell for

                                  A. Bound spells can only be destroyed if the item specifically
                                  \nstates in its description that it can do so. In other
                                  \ncircumstances, no, bound spells cannot be destroyed. If the
                                  \nbound spell in destroyed and the item is a magic weapon, it is
                                  \nonly the spell that is lost- the item is still magical weapon.

                                  A. As with other dispels, you need to equal the casting value

                                  A. The spells continue to take effect until either the Wizard

                                  \nBut in the Magic section of the Warhammer book, it states that

                                  A. The model does not move and counts as if it had been knocked
                                  \ninto another model (and both the wizard and the mount take a S10 hit
                                  \nper the description in the Miscast Table). If it is on a normal steed
                                  \n(not a monster) it gets blown about as normal.

                                  Q. Can Irresistible Force ever be dispelled? The rules say no
                                  \nDispel roll may be attempted, and certain items, such as Dispel
                                  \nScrolls, mention Irresistible Force. However, other items, like the
                                  \nHigh Elf Sigil of Asuryan, make no mention of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. Unless specifically written in the description of an item or
                                  \nability, Irresistible Force can never be dispelled. Note that some
                                  \nitems, such as Sizzla\u2019s Shiny Baubles (an the Orcs & Goblins magic
                                  \nitem), may have an effect on Irresistible Force, but these are

                                  A. Yes. It should read \u2018dispelled as usual\u2019 rather than \u2018dispelled

                                  \nmagic you could relocate a rallied unit into contact with the

                                  Q. What happens when a spell which allows a single character or
                                  \nunit to charge in the magic phase (ex. Steed of Shadows, Unseen
                                  \nLurker, Hand of Gork, etc.) is used to charge a unit which is
                                  \nalready fleeing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. The fleeing unit must flee again. Units that are already
                                  \nfleeing are an exception to the normal charge response rules.
                                  \nWhenever a unit successfully charges a previously fleeing unit,
                                  \nthe unit automatically flees again. Just because they cannot
                                  \nchoose to flee, does not mean they are not forced to. The
                                  \ncharging enemy destroys the fleeing troops if it catches them,
                                  \nas normal.

                                  Q. Father of the Thorn is not listed as a \u00abmagic missile\u00bb, its only
                                  \nrequirements for targeting are 24″ range and LOS. Can it be cast
                                  \nupon characters who are within 5″ of a unit of five or more similar
                                  \nsized models? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. Yes. As it is not a \u00abmagic missile\u00bb, it does not need to conform
                                  \nto normal targeting rules.

                                  \ntargeted by these spells even if they are within 5″ (3″ for
                                  \nSkaven Weapons Teams) of a friendly unit of five or more

                                  A. The Rulebook states \u00abNote that characters on their own\u2026..
                                  \nare classed as units as well, so spells that target units can

                                  A. Yes they can be cast, but only unengaged units are affected,

                                  \nbe used to pick out champions or characters inside units?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. The spell is clearly classified as a ‘Magic Missile’. The
                                  \nrules for ‘Magic Missiles’ state that they can only be cast at
                                  \na target if it would be a viable target according to the rules
                                  \nfor shooting. Therefore the caster must have LOS to the target
                                  \nunit, the target unit must be within range (24″), and the caster
                                  \ncan’t pick out a unit consisting of one similar sized character,
                                  \nSkaven weapon team, etc. within protective radius of a unit of
                                  \nfive or more similar sized models. Once the caster has chosen
                                  \na valid target, the next step is to cast the spell. If
                                  \nsuccessfully cast (and not dispelled) then the text of the
                                  \nspell states:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  \u00abthe spell hits a single model (chosen by the caster)\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  This means that the caster may allocate the hit to a champion or
                                  \nan attached character in a valid target unit.

                                  Q. If a unit has multiple sources of Magic Resistance (e.g. MR(1)
                                  \nfrom a character and MR(2) from a magic banner) do we add the
                                  \nsources together for the MR value to apply or do we simply
                                  \napply the highest value?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. Apply the highest value.

                                  Q. Can units with \u00abMagical Resistance\u00bb dice use these dice to
                                  \ndispel chain spells (e.g. Gork’s Warpath, Plague) when they are
                                  \nnot the first unit targeted? Does Magic Resistance count against
                                  \nComet of Cassandora and other spells that have a random range of
                                  \neffect? Also, may units with \u00abMagical Resistance\u00bb dice use these
                                  \ndice to dispel \u00abremains in play\u00bb spells in subsequent turns?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. No to all of the above. Note that it is not enough for the
                                  \nunit with Magic Resistance to be a potential target. The unit
                                  \nhas to be an actual target of the spell. Magic Resistance, like
                                  \ndispel scrolls, comes into affect only at the point when the
                                  \nmagical energy is summoned (i.e. the spell is cast). Once the
                                  \neffects of the spells become a reality,it’s too late.

                                  Q. What is the corrected description for the first three paragraphs
                                  \nof the Lore of Fire spell, Wall of Fire?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. This spell has a range of 24″ and can be cast on an enemy unit
                                  \nvisible to the caster which has no models (friend or foe) within 1″
                                  \nof its front rank (walls, hedges and other scenic features don\u2019t
                                  \nmatter). The spell cannot be cast on units with a 360\u00ba line of sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A searing wall of flame suddenly rises in front of the unit. To
                                  \nrepresent this take some cotton wool or paper and place this in a
                                  \nline up to 1″ thick in front of the unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  The unit suffers 1 automatic hit for each model (including
                                  \ncharacters) in its front rank. Each hit is resolved with a
                                  \nStrength of 4.

                                  Q. What is the corrected description for the Lore of Metal spell,
                                  \nBane of Forged Steel?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. This spell has a range of 12″ and can be cast on an enemy unit
                                  \nwhich is visible to the caster. If successfully cast, the enemy\u2019s
                                  \nweapons begin to crumble and rust away. No weapon bonuses or
                                  \npenalties apply to the affected unit for the remainder of the
                                  \nbattle. For example, a unit wielding Great Swords will not get their
                                  \n+2 Strength bonus in combat for the rest of the battle, but will
                                  \nnow not have to strike last. A unit with missile weapons may not
                                  \nshoot for the duration of the entire battle. Affected units are
                                  \nassumed to use their fist\/claws, etc, and so cannot benefit from
                                  \nthe rules for using two hand weapons or a hand weapon and shield.
                                  \nWar machines and magic weapons cannot be affected by the Bane of
                                  \nForged Steel \u2013 only ordinary weaponry carried by troops.

                                  Q. What is the corrected description for the first paragraph of the
                                  \nLore of Shadows spell, Steed of Shadows?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. This spell may be cast upon the Wizard himself or any single
                                  \nfriendly independent character model within 12″ of him \u2013 the spell
                                  \ncan only be cast on a model with a Unit Strength of 1 (it won\u2019t work
                                  \non a mounted model or a model riding in a chariot, for example).

                                  \ncast upon it, does this have any affect against a flame template from

                                  A. No.

                                  Q. Can the Lore of Beasts spell, The Oxen Stands (which
                                  \nimmediately rallies fleeing troops) be used to rally a unit
                                  \nthat is at less than 25% of its starting size?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. No. Per guidance from the Design Team questions such as this
                                  \nshould be answered with the phrase \u00abif normally allowed\u00bb in mind.
                                  \nAs a unit that is less than 25% of its starting size is not
                                  \nnormally allowed to rally, the spell can not be used to rally
                                  \nthe unit.

                                  Q. The rules for the Comet of Casandora (Lore of Heavens) state that
                                  \nit remains in play, but the standard statement \u201cstays in play until
                                  \nWizards wants to cancel it, or he dies\u201d is not included. Is it so
                                  \npowerful that it must actively be dispelled to stop it, and survives
                                  \neven if the caster dies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. Once the comet is on its way, the death of the wizard does not
                                  \nautomatically cancel the spell (you can jump up and down on the
                                  \nwizard all you like, it ain\u2019t gonna stop fifty tons of star iron
                                  \nslapping into the battlefield). You can however attempt to dispel
                                  \nit in subsequent turns as usual.

                                  Q. Does the Lore of Light spell, Guardian Light immediately rally
                                  \nfleeing troops within 12″ in the magic phase?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. No. The spell states that fleeing troops within 12″ will
                                  \nautomatically rally. This means that fleeing troops will not
                                  \nhave to take leadership tests in the rally stage of their next
                                  \nturn and will automatically rally at that time. Note the
                                  \ndifference in wording between Guardian Light and the Lore of
                                  \nBeasts spell, The Oxen Stands.

                                  \ncorrect in thinking that you always needs to roll 4+ every turn to
                                  \nshoot, and cannot remove the effect of the spell in the normal way?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  A. That\u2019s exactly how it works \u2013 once you\u2019re wet, you stay wet.

                                  A. Warhammer Chronicles 2004 lists them as \u00abTrial Rules\u00bb, while the

                                  \nMagic are not \u00abOfficial\u00bb (there was a mistake in regards to the
                                  \nWarhammer Annual 2004), however the Design Team always uses the
                                  \nrevised Lores of Magic and the Revised Lores of Magic should be

                                    Q. Does a character have to have the option of a mundane version of a
                                    \nmagic item (like a shield) in his army list entry in order to take a
                                    \nmagical version?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. A character who may not take normal armour (ie, has no option for
                                    \nnormal armour in his army list entry) may not wear magic armour. A
                                    \nBattle Standard Bearer who can\u2019t have a normal shield can\u2019t take a
                                    \nmagical shield. Similarly, a Battle Standard Bearer is not allowed to
                                    \ntake magical weapons that require two hands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    However, note that these last two are specific restrictions for
                                    \nBattle Standard Bearers \u2013 a character who does not normally have the
                                    \noption for a great weapon could still take a magic weapon that
                                    \nrequires two hands to use, for example. The same goes for ranged
                                    \nmagic weapons \u2013 you don\u2019t necessarily need a mundane missile weapon
                                    \noption to take one. Only Wizards can take Arcane items. Some
                                    \ncharacters (such as Slann Mage-Priests, or Dwarf Daemon Slayers) may
                                    \nhave additional restrictions or allowances.

                                    \nshields and still receive the bonus Armour save in close combat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. No, magic weapons and shields don\u2019t grant the bonus Armour save, in
                                    \nany combination. You must have a mundane hand weapon and mundane
                                    \nshield (and be a model on foot) to earn the bonus Armour save.

                                    Q. When the bearer of a magic item that affects models in base to
                                    \nbase contact is engaged in a challenge, which models are affected
                                    \nby the magic item ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. In a challenge, only the model engaged in the challenge counts
                                    \nas being in contact with the bearer. The Direwolf FAQ Council has
                                    \nused the main challenge rules in conjunction with the detailed

                                    \nother missile weapons, count as \u00abmagical\u00bb?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. Yes. Any attack from a magic weapon counts as magical.

                                    Q. For purposes of magic items which protect against ‘missile’
                                    \nfire (e.g. Storm Banner, Golden Eye of Tzeentch, Wristbands
                                    \nof Black Gold, etc.), what constitutes a ‘missile’?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. Any item which does direct damage and originates from a
                                    \nsource not in base contact with the target. This includes
                                    \nhits from missile weapons, war machines, template attacks, etc.
                                    \nNote, however that the only spells which constitute ‘missiles’ are
                                    \nthose specifically noted as \u00abmagic missiles\u00bb. Also, just for the
                                    \nrecord, a Banshee’s scream is not considered a missile!

                                    Q. How do you work out close combat attacks that do multiple wounds
                                    \nagainst units of creatures with multiple Wounds (such as Trolls,
                                    \nOgres or Fellbats)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. When fighting rank and file troops with more than one Wound, use
                                    \nthe same procedure you would for normal troops. Roll to hit, roll to
                                    \nwound, make saves. After this, roll for each wounding hit to see how
                                    \nmany actual wounds are inflicted by the weapon. The maximum number
                                    \nof wounds per hit is the number of Wounds the enemy models have.
                                    \nFor example, if you have a magic sword that does D3 wounds and are
                                    \nfighting Fellbats (which have 2 Wounds each), you would have to
                                    \ncount results of 3 as 2 wounds inflicted. Once the total number of
                                    \nwounds have been rolled, add them all up and remove whole models as
                                    \nnormal. To continue the previous example, if you did 1, 2 and 2
                                    \nwounds from three hits, this is 5 wounds and so you remove two
                                    \nFellbats and one Fellbat has a single wound remaining.

                                    Q. When a model that has an item providing a ward save against the
                                    \nfirst wound suffered is attacked by another model with killing blow,
                                    \nwhat will happen if a normal wound and a killing blow is inflicted?
                                    \nWill the killing blow be deflected or will you roll to see which
                                    \nwound was dealt first? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. You roll to see which wound was inflicted first.

                                    Q. Can the Gem of Blood save against a Killing Blow? If so, is the
                                    \nKilling Blow rebounded back onto the attacker?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. In cases like these, items should be treated just like a Ward
                                    \nsave. So, if the save is passed, then the character takes no
                                    \ndamage, and the wound rebounded. However, just a single wound is
                                    \nrebounded, not the killing blow itself.

                                    \nturn and has remained in play?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. No. It says in the description of the item that it needs to be
                                    \nused \u00abas soon as a spell has been cast.\u00bb If the spell was cast in

                                    \ndispel spells\u2019. I\u2019d say using a Dispel Scroll counts as dispelling

                                    A. No. The general rule is that characters may only be equipped with one

                                    \nyou use them to destoy the Casket of Souls incantation (since it’s
                                    \nsaid to be an incantation of power level 2D6)? What about the Anvil
                                    \nof Doom?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. These items have no effect on the Casket of Souls or the Anvil of
                                    \nDoom, even if they can affect bound items.

                                    \nre-roll a D6, be used to re-roll a D3? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    A. Yes. The instructions in the Rulebook for a D3 begin: \u00abRoll a D6 and
                                    \nhalve the score.\u00bb A player may re-roll the result of a D6 prior
                                    \nto halving the result to generate the D3 result.
