The number of power dice and dispel dice are now determined by the rolling of 2D6 whereas previously this was dictated by the number of wizards present in an army. Rare up to 25% Max 2 (4 if 3000pts +) of army points valueĬharges are no longer declared and moved separately and chargers now move first.Ĭharge distance is now decided by rolling 2d6 and adding unit move distance rather than simply doubling move distance, this means charges are much, much longer than before, especially for dwarfs which can now potentially charge 15” where before they could charge a maxium of 6”.Special up to 50% Max 3 (6 if 3000pts +) of army points value.Though core principles such as unit statistics and the basic turn sequence remain the same, there are some significant changes fortunately the game remains recognisably (and distictly) Warhammer Fantasy Battle.Īrmy selection is more flexible than before, an army must have at least 3 non-character usnits and then follow the rules below.

The Rulesīelow is a run down of some of the main changes to the rules in Warhammer 8th Edition. Some of the extra pages in this huge tome have been used to space out the contents more and allows the use of increased “white space” on the page, to my mind this makes browsing through the rules section of the book much easier.įinally there are coloured tabs on the edge of the pages making it easy to find the section you are looking for and a handy bookmark to help you keep your place. The remainder comprises of 115 pages of background information, a 100 page miniatures showcase, just under 100 pages of battle types & scenarios and is capped off by a comprehensive reference section.Īfter an initial look through the book it seems that the layout is much better than the previous version. The rules themselves only make up 150 pages of this. The 8th edition rule book is almost twice the length of the previous edition, running to 528 pages, all rendered in glorious techni-colour. This book is absolutely huge and even after a week with it we haven’t read it cover to cover but if we waited to write a review until we’d finished going through the thing you wouldn’t be reading this until after release. Well the much anticipated Warhammer 8th Edition Rulebook has landed at Big Orbit games and we’ve spent about a week pouring over it.
