Special Rules

Beloved of Kislev

Many troops in the Warhammer game have unique and unusual abilities and skills. These range from supernatural abilities, such as the regenerative powers of Trolls and the fiery breath of Dragons, to the natural protection gained by Lizardmen from their scaly hides. In the game these abilities and special skills are represented by special rules. Any creature may have one or more special rules and, unless otherwise mentioned, the effects from special rules are cumulative. The following list is by no means exhaustive, but it does detail the most common special rules and should serve as a good reference source.

Fury of Ursun

Glorious Charge

Kin of the Bear God

Mercenaries

Protectors of the Khan-queen

Steady in the Ranks

Stubborn (Boyars)

The Lore of Ice

The Warhammer rulebook describes eight different kinds of magical lore each of which is represented by six spells making a total of 48 individual spells. Each Lore is based upon one of the eight magical traditions of the High Elves whose learning far exceeds that of any ocher race in the Warhammer world. The men of the Empire learned their sorcery from High Elf mages and so use the same system as their basis of study — though their knowledge is by no means as great. The sorcery of the other races of the Warhammer world is also based upon one or more of the eight kinds of magic but often includes spells unique to a particular race. The Warhammer Army books contain further spell lists for specific armies where appropriate. There are two other types of magic which do not directly concern us here - High magic and Dark magic. These are described in the Warhammer Army books for the High Elves and Dark Elves respectively.

Army Lists

Using an Allies Contingent

Note: This section is not formally part of the main rulebook, but is included in every army book, individually. A generalised overview of common army structure is presented here. The purpose of an army list is to enable players with vastly different armies to stage games which are as fair and evenly balanced as it is possible to make them. The army list gives each individual model a points value which represents its capabilities on the tabletop. The higher a model's points value the better it is in one or more respects: stronger, tougher, faster, better leadership, and so on. The value of the army is simply the value of all the models added together. As well as providing points costs, the list also divides the army into its constituent units. The list describes the weapons and optional equipment that troops can have and occasionally restricts the number of very powerful units an army can include.

Allies Contingent Special Rules

Kislev Allies

When using the Shard Blade, Boris adds + 2 to his Strength. In addition, any models who suffer a wound (after saving throws, etc) must take an immediate Toughness test. If this test is failed, they suffer an additional wound, with no Armour or Ward save possible. Remember, a roll of a 6 is always a failure, no matter the Toughness of the opponent. 

Shard Blade

The Armour of Ursun counts as full plate (4+ Armour save). In addition, for each hit caused by his enemies in close combat, the Tzar may make an additional attack back after his enemies' attacks have been resolved (and assuming he's still alive!). He may make these bonus attacks even if he has already attacked that phase.
