Vampire Counts

The Unholy chalice confers a 4+ Ward save against ranged attacks only (missiles and spells), it has no effect against close combat attacks.

Unholy Chalice

At the beginning of each of his turns the Vampire can decide not to move in that Movement phase and attempt to call winds. Roll a dice: on a result of 1 nothing happens, on a 2 to 6 the Vampire summons a wild storm that will last until the beginning of his next turn. If he is engaged in close combat, wounded or killed, the storm ends immediately. The storm affects the entire battlefield. All shooting is at -1 to hit. All flying movement is impossible and flying creatures have to use their ground Movement value.

Call Winds

At the beginning of the Close Combat phase select one model in base contact with the Vampire The selected model must take a Leadership test. If the test is failed, the victim cannot attack in that Close Combat phase.

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!
