Hordes of Chaos

Archaon may unleash the power of U'zubl in any Close Combat phase. If he does this, he fights wlth double his normal number of Attacks (usually 10) but any rolls to hit of a 1 will strike either himself or a friendly model in base contact (Chaos player's choice). He may not re-roll to hit results of a 1 for any reason when unleashing U'zubl. Once U'zubl is released, Archaon must use this special ability in every close combat he is subsequently in - the Daemon cannot be bound back into the blade during the course of the battle. In addition, whether U'zubl has been released or not, the Slayer of Kings ignores armour saves.

The Slayer of Kings

The Armour of Morkar gives Archaon a 1+ saving throw. In addition to this, no attack against him may ever have a better chance to wound him than a 3+ roll. Attacks that wound automatically, always 2+, etc, will still need a 3+ to wound him.

The Armour of Morkar

The vision granted by the Eye allow Archaon to predict the attacks of the enemy and counter or avoid them. The Eye grants him a 3+ Ward save.

The Eye of Sheerian

Archaon cause terror, and in addition any friendly unit within 6" of Archaon may re-roll failed Break tests.

Infantry (20/25mm)

Infantry includes all units of foot troops, be they Dwarfs, Elves, Men, or any other of the myriad Warhammer races fighting on foot. A typical infantry regiment is at least 10 strong but can include 20, 40 or even more! Infantry forms the backbone of most Warhammer armies.

Special Character

The Warhammer Army books include several different types of characters, be they Wizards or Heroes. However, we can easily imagine all kinds of wild individuals with different characteristic values from those given in the army lists. The characters described above are 'standard' types. They are typically representative of their race, and of the sort of Heroes and Wizards you can expect to find in a Warhammer army. Variant types of character, those differing from the standard types, are referred to as 'special characters'. Special characters are the Warhammer equivalent of famous warleaders and mages, individuals renowned amongst their own kind and abhorred by their enemies. For example, they can be the mighty leaders of nations, such as the Emperor Karl Franz of the Empire, Orc and Goblin Warlords such as Grom the Paunch of Misty Mountain, Malekith the Witch King of the Dark Elves, Hotek the renegade Priest of Vaul and many more besides. There are also important military leaders and high ranking nobles, such as Bretonnian Dukes, Elector Counts from the Empire, and devious Skaven Seers. All of these special characters are quite different from the standard types. Some are better fighters than others, but some are better leaders, while many carry specific magical weapons or ride large monsters. Numerous special characters are described in the Warhammer Army books and other Warhammer supplements and, of course, players can get together and make up their own if they wish. After all, who can resist the temptation to create a mighty leader of armies in their own image, to paint and perhaps even model him to suit their heroic vision, to name and invent a past for their character, and to fight him in battle after battle!
