Animal FormCasters taking on another animals form abide by thefollowing rules

The caster retains his/her Ld, Int, Cl and WP aswell as previous psychologies The caster does not benefit from any magicitems he/she possesses unless otherwise noted

The caster may not cast spells The caster may attempt once per turn at any time

to return to his/her original state, to do thishe/she must pass a WP test.

The caster s wounds are equal to the new forms

wound allowance minus any wounds they havealready sustained. In the event that the casterwould revert to their original state or vice versaand this would result in 0 or fewer woundsremaining they are instead reduced to a singlewound.

*means that it mirrors the stat of the originalcreature

If dispelled, the caster simply reverts to theirnormal form.

Summoned/Bound Creatures May not move/attack the turn they appear Once routed/panicked, the caster dies or the

spell is dispelled after the first turn, the GM rollsa D6 and consults the failed animal reactionchart.

Bound Creatures require a magic user to foregocasting a spell during the pregame magic phaseas the are b s binding the animal or nit of

normally fail instead the unit takes woundsdistributed as per missile fire equal in number tohow much it failed the test, no armor save.

Undead use the Leadership, Coolness,Intelligence, and Will power of the controlling

Hierophant, or leader model in their unit

HierophantBefore the battle you must elect from your higher mostranking liches to be the hierophant. For Vampire Countsthe Vampire General fulfills this role. All undead unitsin play and not lead but a lich or Tomb lord may usehis/her Ld, Cl, Int, an d WP. In the event of this modelsdeath, at the beginning of each tomb king compulsory

phase each unit takes a WP test, if failed the unit sufferswounds equal to how much it failed the test by.

In the event that your army did not begin the game witha Hierophant, the first magic user to summon an undeadmodel becomes the hierophant

EtherealMay pass through terrain without penalty. The onlyexception to this are linear obstacles and houses. Theseobjects were created with the intentionality of safetyand protection. Ethereal beings may not cross thethreshold of a house unless the door is already openand may not cross linear obstacles. Nor may ethereal

beings harm these obstacles.

May not cross water

Daemons are otherworldly entities existing on a separate planefrom mortal beings. Consequently they benefit from a 3+ wardsave versus mundane weapons and attacks

All attacks made by daemons are magical

Daemons are immune to psychology except tests induced byequal or greater deamons

Minor daemons cause fear Lesser Daemons cause fear 6 in creatures under 10

and fear in creatures larger than 10 Greater Daemons cause fear 12 to all things In exception to being immune to psychology Daemons suffer

from Hatred toward daemons of opposing gods.o Nurgle and Tzeentch hate one anothero Khorne and Slaanesh hate one another

When a unit would normally take a panic or break test, roll asnormal using WP instead of Cl. If the unit would normally failinstead the unit takes wounds distributed as per missile fireequal in number to how much it failed the test, no armor/wardsave.

ElementalsGeneral Rules

Elementals are the forces of nature incarnate, just as one can doggedly resist the forces of nature similarly when an Elemental attacks theirstrength is compared to the models WP except against buildings, chariots and warmachines where it i s rolled against toughness as usual.

Elementals are sustained by magical auras which can be broken by magical attacks, Elementals take double wounds from magical weapons.

Elementals are unbreakable but may be pushed back. When a unit would normally take a panic or break test, roll as normal using WP instead of Cl. If the unit would normally fail instead the unittakes wounds distributed as per missile fire equal in number to how much it failed the test, no armor/ward save.

Elementals make Magical Stomp Attacks. Every Elemental has special summoning conditions Elementals may divide and combine together like swarms but need not aggregate, though they will use their lowest WP for the above tests.
