Army Special Rules

Models with this special rule have the Dodge (6+) special rule in close combat. However, this cannot be used against enemies that attack before the model with Elven Grace.

Models with this special rule (but not any mounts) may re-roll all To Hit rolls of 1 when making close combat attacks.

If your opponent's army roster contains one or more models from Warhammer: Dark Elves, models with this special rule re-roll all failed Panic tests and have Immunity (Fear).

A Wizard with this special rule adds +1 to all dispel attempts.

Elven Bows follow the rules for Bows. Elven Longbows follow the rules for Longbows. All shots with these weapons have the Armour Piercing (1) special rule.

Ithilmar barding follows all the rules for barding in the Warhammer rulebooks, except that the mount suffers no penalty to its Movement from it.

Heavy armour. Dragon armour grants the wearer the Immunity (Flaming Attacks) special rule.

Lion Cloaks have the following armour profile:

If a Lord of Aenarion is in base contact with a friendly unit, he must pass a Leadership test at the start of any round of combat a he is involved in. If failed, he will make one Attack on every model in base contact instead of attacking normally. Roll to Hit as normal.

As soon as a model with this special rule is reduced to 1 Wound he gets a Ward save (3+) for the rest of the battle. This has no effect on attacks that would outright kill him before he is reduced to 1 Wound, like a spell or attack with the Multiple Wounds special rule. If he were to suffer multiple Wounds in a single phase, roll one save at a time (if he has any) for each Wound suffered until his Ward save takes effect.

If a unit of Sea Guard containing at least one Sea Helm is charged during the Movement phase and chooses Hold as a charge reaction, it can attempt to change formation immediately before your opponent has moved any of his charging units, as long as it is not already engaged in close combat. To do so, the unit must take a Leadership test. If the test is passed, the Sea Helm's unit can immediately make a reform as described in the Warhammer rulebook.

A Sea Helm mounted on a Lothern Skycutter (and his Lothern Skycutter) has a 4+ ward save against shooting attacks. Furthermore, when mounted on a Lothern Skycutter, a Sea Helm re-rolls failed Dangerous Terrain tests.

When a Dragon Mage casts a spell, a 'free' Power dice is added to the casting attempt. This extra dice counts towards Ultimate Power and can cause a Miscast as normal, and allows the Dragon Mage to roll more dice than he is normally allowed to.

Mistweaver544332628

Troop Type: Infantry (Character)

A Mistweaver is a Level 1 Wizard who uses Mist Magic.

Illusory Assault is a hex spell with a range of 24". The target unit must pass a Leadership test; if failed each model in the unit must fight a round of combat against itself. Any casualties inflicted counts as having been made with shooting attacks and may cause Panic.

Remains in Play. The Writhing Mists is an augment spell with a range of 24". Any enemy attacks targeted at the unit will suffer a -1 to hit penalty.

Remains in Play. Place an appropriate marker no larger than 1" in diameter to represent the Oceanid within 6" of the Wizard. Whenever an enemy unit wishes to fire upon or declare a charge against a unit in the High Elf army, it must first measure the distance to the Oceanid. If the Oceanid is closer than the target unit, it must make a Leadership test.

If the test is failed, the enemy unit is distracted by the Oceanid's haunting song, and the attack/charge is not performed. If the test is passed, no Oceanid will have any effect against that unit for the rest of the game. This spell has no effect against units with Immunity (Psychology).

Great weapon. White Lions may make use of one the following special rules in close combat in the situations described below:

  • Lion Rampant: The axe is used to hold back a charging enemy and blunt the force of his attack. The White Lion uses the thick haft of the axe like a quarter staff to defend himself against the enemy's onslaught.
    Lion Rampant can be used in a turn when choosing "Hold" as a charge reaction. The White Lions gain the Parry (6+) special rule for the duration of the close combat phase.

  • Lion Leaping: The warrior uses the weight of his weapon to barge over his opponent, employing his Elven speed and agility to catch his foe off balance.
    Lion Leaping can be used in a turn when the White Lions are charging. The enemy models in base contact are subject to the Always Strikes Last special rule for the duration of the close combat phase.

  • Lion Claw: This method is employed against larger creatures, and is essentially a killing blow to the neck. The Chracians practice this movement using thick logs, and it is said that a well-aimed blow will cut a tree clean in two.
    Lion Claw can be used fighting against Monstrous Infantry, Monstrous Beasts and Monstrous Cavalry. Against these Troop Types, the White Lions have the Heroic Killing Blow special rule in the first turn of close combat.

  • One White Lion may be upgraded to a Guardian (10 pts)

When rolling to determine the strength of the Winds of Magic in the controlling player's Magic phase, compare the highest D6 rolled with the table below to determine what effects the Phoenix will have (the effect rolled will last until the start of the controlling player's next Magic phase):

D6

Results

1

Magical Dearth: The Phoenix's Ward save is reduced to 6+.

2

Ebbing Zephyr: The Phoenix has -1 Strength.

3

Magical Draught: The Phoenix has +1 Initiative.

4

Energising Breeze: The Phoenix has +1 Attack.

5

Invigorating Winds: The Phoenix has +1 Strength.

6

Howling Gale: The Phoenix's Ward save is increased to 4+

As soon as a Flamespyre Phoenix loses its last Wound (including unsaved Wounds that killed the monster as a result of the Heroic Killing Blow or Multiple Wounds special rules), remove the model and place a Phoenix Reborn counter (a small coin will do) to mark the centre of the death spot. If your army contains several Flamespyre Phoenixes, you will need to place a Phoenix Reborn counter for each one that is slain (and a way of telling the counters apart).

At the end of the turn roll a D6 for each Phoenix Reborn counter and consult the table below:

D6

Result

1-2

Dead Embers. The Flamespyre Phoenix is dead, never to return – remove the Phoenix Reborn counter from play.

3-5

Flame Kindled. Centre the large round template over the centre of the Phoenix Reborn counter. All models (friend or foe) hit by the template suffer a Strength 4 hit with the Flaming Attacks special rule. This is a non-physical attack. The Phoenix Reborn counter remains in play – roll again at the end of the next turn (yours or your opponent's).

6+

Rise from the Ashes. Place the Flamespyre Phoenix anywhere that is within 6" of the centre of the Phoenix Reborn counter and at least 1" away from any unit, and then remove the marker from play. If it is not possible to place the Phoenix due to the aforementioned restrictions, treat this result as a Flame Kindled result instead. Reborn Flamespyre Phoenixes return with D3+2 Wounds. The reborn model suffers no bonuses or penalties incurred from its former existence – i.e. if the model was fleeing or affected by an augment or hex spell at the time of its death, the reborn model will not be.

If a Flamespyre Phoenix has a rider when it loses its last Wound, both monster and rider are removed and replaced with a Phoenix Reborn counter as described above. However, add +1 when rolling on the Phoenix Reborn table for a Flamespyre Phoenix that had a rider when it was removed.

If the result is Dead Embers, both monster and rider are slain, never to return. However, if the result is Rise from the Ashes, the character returns to life with its starting number of Wounds, riding atop the reborn Flamespyre Phoenix.

At the end of the game, remove all Phoenix Reborn counters from the board – these Flamespyre Phoenixes and any riders they had count as casualties.

If a Flamespyre Phoenix moves over an unengaged enemy unit in the Remaining Moves sub-phase, it suffers D6 Strength 4 hits with the Flaming Attacks special rule. This is a non-physical attack.

Hits from Sunfang are resolved at +3 Strength and have the Flaming Attacks special rule. In addition, Sunfang's bearer can make a Strength 3 Breath Weapon attack once per game. Hits from this attack are magical, and have the Flaming Attacks special rule.

Dragon armour. The Dragon Armour of Aenarion grants Tyrion a 1+ armour save and a Ward Save (4+).

The Heart of Avelorn gives Tyrion the Magic Resistance (2) special rule. In addition, if Tyrion suffers an unsaved Wound that would kill him (including unsaved Wounds that killed him as a result of the Killing Blow, Heroic Killing Blow or Multiple Wounds special rules), roll a D6 before removing him as a casualty; on a 2+ Tyrion negates the Wound and the Heart of Avelorn is destroyed. Otherwise, Tyrion is removed as a casualty as normal.

Curse of Aenarion, Defender of Ulthuan, Feint, Martial Prowess, Riposte, Valour of Ages

As soon as a model with this special rule is reduced to 1 Wound he gets a Ward save (3+) for the rest of the battle. This has no effect on attacks that would outright kill him before he is reduced to 1 Wound, like a spell or attack with the Multiple Wounds special rule. If he were to suffer multiple Wounds in a single phase, roll one save at a time (if he has any) for each Wound suffered until his Ward save takes effect.

If Tyrion is your army's General, his Inspiring Presence has a range of 18".

Tyrion may re-roll any failed rolls to Hit in Close Combat.

Tyrion has the Parry (6+) special rule, even while mounted. For each successful Parry made (every '6' rolled when making Ward saves), he may immediately make an additional Attack back at the model who struck the blow.

Teclis5332235110

Troop Type: Infantry (Special Character)

Teclis is a Level 4 Wizard. He does not generate spells following the normal rules, but instead can choose either to know all of the spells in the Lore of High Magic, or choose one spell from each of the eight Lores of Battle Magic in the Warhammer rulebook.

Magic Items / Abilities: Sword of Teclis, Moon Staff of Lileath, Scroll of Hoeth, War Crown of Saphery, Potion of Inner Strength

All hits from the Sword of Teclis wound on a 2+, and Wounds caused by it Ignores Armour Saves.

The staff gives Teclis 1 extra Power and Dispel dice in each Magic phase. Once per game, The Moon Staff of Lileath can unleash its full power. It can either be used at the start of any of Teclis' Magic phases, in which case a bonus power dice is added to every casting attempt Teclis makes that phase (at least one normal Power dice must be used), or if Teclis suffers a miscast he can choose to ignore it (before any roll on the Miscast table is made). In either case, his staff will cease to provide any additional dice for the rest of the battle.

One use only. The Scroll of Hoeth follows the rules of Dispel Scrolls. In addition, immediately after the dispel has been resolved, both Teclis and the caster must roll a D6; if Teclis scores higher, the caster immediately forgets the spell; otherwise, nothing else happens.

The War Crown of Saphery allows Teclis to re-roll the result of any randomised spell effects (such as the number of hits inflicted by a magic missile).

One use only. At the start of any turn, Teclis may drink his Potion of Charoi. When he does so, he will increase his Weapon Skill and Initiative to 6, and Strength, Toughness and Attacks to 3 for the remainder of the turn.

Curse of Aenarion, Elven Grace, Lileath's Blessing, Martial Prowess, Valour of Ages

As soon as a model with this special rule is reduced to 1 Wound he gets a Ward save (3+) for the rest of the battle. This has no effect on attacks that would outright kill him before he is reduced to 1 Wound, like a spell or attack with the Multiple Wounds special rule. If he were to suffer multiple Wounds in a single phase, roll one save at a time (if he has any) for each Wound suffered until his Ward save takes effect.

Alarielle the Radiant is a Level 4 Wizard who uses spells from the Lore of Life, the Lore of Light and the Lore of High Magic. She can choose all of her spells from the same lore, or from two or more of the above lores in any combination.

Hand weapon.

Magic Items / Abilities: The Shieldstone of Isha, Stave of Avelorn, Star of Avelorn

The Shieldstone of Isha grants Alarielle the Radiant and her unit a Ward save (5+) against any mundane attacks.

One use only. The Stave of Avelorn is used in the Magic phase. When used, it allows Alarielle to immediately attempt to cast a spell she has already cast that phase, even if the casting attempt failed, or was miscast. The spell is otherwise cast according to the normal rules.

At the start of your Movement phase, nominate a single friendly character within 12" – that model immediately regains a single Wound lost earlier in the battle. Alarielle can only restore her own Wounds if there is no other viable target within range.

Boon of Isha, Chaos Bane, Elven Grace, Lileath's Blessing, Martial Prowess, Touch of the Everqueen, Valour of Ages

All attacks made by models in the Everqueen's unit adds +1 to all of its To Hit rolls and are magical attacks. In addition, all models in her unit have Immunity (Fear/Terror).

At the start of each of Alarielle's Magic phases, before rolling for the Winds of Magic, every unit with the Daemonic special rule within 12" of Alarielle the Radiant suffers D6 Strength 4 hits, distributed as for shooting attacks. However, Alarielle suffers a -D3 penalty to her casting attempts if there is one or more models with the Daemonic special rule within 12".

If Alarielle's makes a successful roll To Hit in close combat, that model is reduced to Weapon Skill 1 for the remainder of that phase.

Belannaer is a Level 3 Wizard. He does not generate spells following the normal rules, but instead always know the eight signature spells from the Lores of Battle Magic in the Warhammer rulebook.

Magic Items / Abilities: Blade of Bel-Korhadris, Cloak of Stars, Staff of Cyeos, Book of the Phoenix

This blade has the Ignore Armour saves special rule against non-magical armour, but magic armours works as normal. In addition, once per battle, at the beginning of any close combat phase, Belannaer can unleash the fires of the captured star. He then gains +D6 Attacks with the Flaming Attacks special rule that turn.

All shooting and close combat Attacks that strike Belannaer will be resolved at -1 Strength (with a minimum of 1).

Belannaer may add an additional free Power Dice to one spell attempt each turn.

At the beginning of the battle Belannaer may read one of the verses of the book. The effect will last for the end of the game, unless the Book is destroyed or nullified by some means.

  • The Verse of Rebirth: If Belannaer is ever killed, he will immediately burst into flames causing a Flaming Strength 6 hit on each model, friend or foe, in base-to-base contact with him, and return to life with D3 wounds. He may be positioned in any High Elf unit on the battlefield. This does not apply if Belannaer is caught in pursuit. One use only.

  • The Verse of Flame Eternal: This verse will allow Belannaer to automatically cast one of his spells without using any power dice once per Magic phase. It can still be dispelled as normal, at a Power Level of 5.

  • The Verse of Destruction: This verse will double the strength of Belannaer, giving him an effective Strength of 8.

Elven Grace, Glamour of Hoeth, Martial Prowess, Swordmaster, Valour of Ages

Enemies who declare a charge against Belannaer or his unit must re-roll successful charge distance rolls.

Models with this special rule ignore Initiative penalties from great weapons and gain the Dodge (6+) special rule against non-magical missile attacks (except templates).

Immediately after both armies have been fully deployed (including scouts), each unit of Lothern Sea Guard and Eagle Claw Bolt Throwers in Aislinn's army gets to fire as if it was the Shooting phase, adding +D6" to their range.

If a unit of Sea Guard containing at least one Sea Helm is charged during the Movement phase and chooses Hold as a charge reaction, it can attempt to change formation immediately before your opponent has moved any of his charging units, as long as it is not already engaged in close combat. To do so, the unit must take a Leadership test. If the test is passed, the Sea Helm's unit can immediately make a reform as described in the Warhammer rulebook.

A Sea Helm mounted on a Lothern Skycutter (and his Lothern Skycutter) has a 4+ ward save against shooting attacks. Furthermore, when mounted on a Lothern Skycutter, a Sea Helm re-rolls failed Dangerous Terrain tests.

Magic Items / Abilities: The White Sword

So great is Eltharion's skill, he can use a number of fighting styles, each of which has a different effect on his rules. At the start of each round of combat, Eltharion must declare which fighting style he is using for that whole round.

  • Way of the Willow Branch: Eltharion's body twists and contorts like a reed in the wind, and his sword deflects incoming blows with astounding speed, making him virtually impossible to hit.
    Any close combat attacks against Eltharion require 6's To Hit, before any other modifications, and regardless of relative Weapons Skills or any other special rules.

  • Way of the Winter Breeze: Weaving his sword in a bewildering, swirling arc, Eltharion is able to guide his blade through even the most steadfast defence.
    Eltharion gains +1 To Hit and ignores Parry saves in close combat.

  • Way of the Swooping Eagle: Eltharion summons all of his speed and might into a few deadly blows.
    Eltharion gains +2 Strength.

  • Way of the Breaking Storm: Unleashing his speed and strength in a flurry of blistering attacks, Eltharion rains down blow after blow on the enemy.
    Eltharion gains +2 Attacks.

Eltharion has the Dodge (5+) and Immunity (Killing Blow) special rules.

If Eltharion is your General, you may take one unit of Swordmasters as a Core choice. Any unit of Swordmasters joined by Eltharion becomes Stubborn.

Magic Armour

Model on foot only. Medium armour. The wearer has the Scouts and Strider special rules.

Shield. The bearer of the Shield of the Merwyrm gains the Parry (5+) special rule instead of the normal 6+.

Talismans

One use only. The Golden Crown of Atrazar bestows a Ward Save (2+) against the first wounding hit suffered by the wearer (which cancels out not only the Wound, but also any Killing Blow or Multiple Wounds special rules the attack has) after which its power fades and it cannot be used again during the game.

Arcane Items

The Book of Hoeth allows the bearer to re-roll a single dice from each of his casting or dispel attempts. Results of 6 cannot be re-rolled.

Enchanted Items

Bound Spell (power level 3). Khaine's Ring of Fury contains the Soul Quench spell (see the Lore of High Magic).

One use only. At the start of any of your turns, when the Gem of Sunfire is used, all of the bearer's spells, shooting attacks and close combat attacks (and their mount's, if they have one) have a +1 bonus To Wound (rolls of 1 still fail) provided that they also have the Flaming Attacks special rule.

Model on foot only. The bearer of Moranion's Wayshard has the Ambushers special rule. They can also give the Ambushers special rule to a friendly unit of Archers, Spearmen or Warriors from Warhammer: High Elves up to 30 models in size, immediately before deployment. If they do so, the bearer immediately joins the unit and cannot leave it until the turn after the one in which the combined unit has deployed.

The wearer of the Cloak of Beards causes Fear. Against models chosen from Warhammer: Dwarfs, the wearer causes Terror instead. However, all models from Warhammer: Dwarfs gain the Hatred special rule while attacking the wearer. In addition, at the start of each Close Combat phase, roll a D6 for each magic item carried by each model from Warhammer: Dwarfs that is in base contact with the bearer. On a roll of 4+, that magic or runic item is destroyed and cannot be used for the rest of the battle; it will count as a mundane version of whatever item it is instead. Note that this has no effect on magic items that are mounts, war machines, magic items that contain bound spells that have already miscast during the game, and any magic items labelled as 'one use only' that have already been used during the game – do not roll to see if these magic items are destroyed.

Magic Standards

All models in a unit that carries the Banner of the World Dragon have the Magic Resistance (5) special rule. Furthermore, all Dragons (friend or foe) within 12" of the Banner of the World Dragon have the Stubborn special rule.

Arcane Items

During the enemy's Magic phase, the Annulian Crystal allows you to remove one dice from the opponent's Power dice pool and add it to your own Dispel dice pool.

One use only. When an enemy cast a spell, the bearer may immediately counter its effects by reading the Sigil of Asuryan to release the spell written upon it instead of attempting to dispel the spell by using dispel dice. This gives them 6 free dice to attempt to dispel the spell, which cannot be combined with any other dispel dice. In addition, the spell is destroyed and the enemy caster loses access to the spell for the rest of the game (note that this has no effect on Innate Bound spells).

The bearer of the Pendant of Vengeance may cause any successful casting roll (except Miscasts) on the Anvil of Doom to be rerolled.

All close combat attacks made by the bearer of the Amulet of Light and any unit they are with gain the Magical Attacks special rule. In addition, enemies must re-roll 6's when taking Ward saves .

The Lore of High Magic

Each time a spell from this lore is successfully cast, the caster and their unit immediately gain a Ward save (6+) (which can then be increased by further castings thanks to this lore attribute) until the beginning of the caster's next Magic phase.

Drain Magic can be cast on any unit (friend or foe) and has a range of 24". If the target is a friendly unit, Drain Magic is an augment spell. If the target is an enemy unit, Drain Magic is a hex spell. In either case, all Remains in Play spells affecting the unit are immediately dispelled, and the effects of all other spells on the target unit immediately come to an end. The Wizard can choose to have this spell target all units (friend and foe) within 12". If he does so, the casting value is increased to 14+.

Soul Quench is a magic missile with a range of 18" that causes 2D6 Strength 4 hits. The caster can choose for this spell to instead inflict 3D6 Strength 4 hits. If he does so, the casting value is increased to 12+.

Apotheosis is an augment spell that targets a single model within 18". The target immediately regains a single lost Wound. The Wizard can choose to cast a more powerful version of Apotheosis. If he does so, the target instead immediately regains D3 lost Wounds, in which case the casting value is increased to 10+. Regardless of how many lost Wounds (if any) are recovered, the target also gains the Fear special rule until the start of the caster's next Magic phase.

Hand of Glory is an augment spell with a range of 18". The target unit's Weapon Skill, Ballistic Skill, Initiative or Movement (you choose which) is increased by D3 until the start of the caster's next Magic phase. The Wizard can choose to cast a more powerful version of this spell that instead increases all four characteristics (don't roll a separate D3 for each — make one roll and apply it to all four characteristics). If he does so, the casting value is increased to 10+.

Walk Between Worlds is an augment spell that targets a single unengaged unit within 24". The target gains the Ethereal special rule until the end of the phase and can immediately move up to 10" as if it were the Remaining Moves sub-phase. The Wizard can choose to cast a more powerful version of this spell, in which case the target instead gains the Ethereal special rule until the end of the phase and can immediately move up to 20" as if it were the Remaining Moves sub-phase. If he chooses to do so, the casting value is increased to 16+.

Tempest is a direct damage spell. Place the large round template anywhere within 30" of the Wizard — it then scatters D6". All models hit by the template suffer a Strength 3 hit (models with the Fly special rule suffer a Strength 4 hit instead). If a unit suffers any unsaved Wounds from this spell, it suffers a -1 modifier to all To Hit rolls (both shooting and close combat) until the start of the caster's next Magic phase (shooting attacks that do not use Ballistic Skill must roll 4+ on a D6 before firing, or the shot(s) area lost).

Arcane Unforging is a direct damage spell with a range of 24" that targets a single enemy model (even a character in a unit). The target suffers a single Wound on a dice roll greater than or equal to the model's unmodified armour save (excluding Natural Armour, models without an armour save cannot be wounded). No armour saves are permitted against a Wound caused by this spell. The owning player must then reveal to the caster all the magic items possessed by the target (if any). If the target has one or more magic items, randomly select one of them — on the roll of 2+, that item is immediately destroyed and cannot be used for the rest of the game. Note that this spell has no effect on magic items that are mounts, magic items that contain bound spells that have miscast during the game, and any magic items labelled as 'one use only' that have already been used during the game – do not include these when randomly selecting a magic item.

Remains in play. Fiery Convocation is a direct damage spell with a range of 24". Every model in the target unit takes a Strength 4 hit with the Flaming Attacks special rule. At the end of every subsequent Magic phase, every model in the target unit suffers a Strength 4 hit with the Flaming Attacks special rule
