It was the time of the Sundering, Civilization tore itself asunder and the gods themselves wept to see the beauty despoiled. Brother fought brother, father fought son, and no mother was spared the grief of slaughtered kin. Disguised by a mask of light, malice spread like a disease amongst the unwary. Where it walked, treachery blossomed; where it spoke, corruption spread. Once more Chaos reached out and its v hand cast a shadow over the fair lands of Ulthuan. Blinded by the light of our own creation, we forged a new world, ignorant of the prophecies that stalked our every step. So it was that Malekith the Fair, Malekith the Noble, Malekith the Traitor hid amongst us. The son of Acnation worked his vile plots under the guise of honour. The prophecy had come (ruc and thus a descendant of the line of Acnarion would pierce the bright heart of our nation. War intensified his thirst for blood, and ambition grew ever stronger, darkening his heart. Evil struck unseen at our souls. Our leaders were betrayed and one by one they succumbed. Those that saw through the deception were murdered before they could spread waming, Malckith, th Master of Darkness, grew ever more powerful. Betrayal stung the soul of every Elf, treachery ate at our hearts. Those who had once fought to » the land now broke down the towers and defiled all that was beautiful. Destruction was their jal and murder was their war cry, but we would not bow to the darkness. United under one basiner we fought to save all we had built. Those who chose to enslave us sav th ‘we would not fall. In their spite they sought to destroy what they could not possess and so came the Sundering. They broke the lands with te:sible magics, and for a time Ulthuan looked as though it would vanish beneath the tides. Such is our glory, in death we still shone. Powers alder than the dawn of time fought at ou side an saved us. Victory has its price and to this day we pay with tears, We moun the loss of our friends and ever guard sgainst their murderers. We are ever-living, Our spirit is immortal, and long after the last of our people crumbles to du: shall still ive on. For we are the Asur and for as long as there is light then we will shineTHE ELVEN WARHOST "We, the As, are a noble people, our long and proud history stretching back to a time when Men were sill fur-clad savages.

The list describes the ‘weapons and optional equipment that troops can have and occasionally restricrs the number of very powerful units an army can include. It would be very silly indeed if an army were to consist entirely of Tiranoc Chariots or Princes on Griffons. The resultant game would be a frustrating and unbalanced affair if not a complete waste of time, We employ army lists to ensure that this does nor happen! HOW THE ARMY LIST IS INTENDED TO BE USED Amy lists enable two players to choose armies of equal points value to fight a battle, as described in the main body of the Warhammer rules. The following list has been constructed with this purpose in mind. The list can also be used when playi either those described in the Warhammer rulebook or others, including ones invented by the players. In this case, the list provides a framework which the players ean adapt aay required. It might, for example, be felt necessary t0 increase or decrease the number of characters or units allowed, or to restrict or remove uptions in the standard lst 15 Magic items or monstrous mounts. If you refer to rnarios section of the Warhammer rulebook (pages 196-213), you'll find some examples of this kind. ARMY LIST ORGANISATION The army list is divided into four sections: CHARACTERS These represent the most able, skilled and individuals in your army: extraordinary lead Princes and Mages. They form a vital and potent part of your forces. e units represent the most common warriors. They usually form che bulk of the army and will often bear the brunt of the fighting. SPECIAL UNITS Special units are the best of your warriors, scouting forces, and chariors. They are available to your army in limited numbers. RARE UNITS, Rare units are to your ordinary troops. They represent unique units ‘uncommon creatures and unusual machines. CHOOSING AN ARMY Both players choose armies to the same agreed points valu. Most players find that 2,000 points is about right fora bartle that will last over an evening. Whatever value you agree this is the maximum number of points you can spend on your army. You can spend less and will probably find itis 100 points armies will therefore be something like 1,998 ot 1,999 points, but they are stil “2,000° points armies for our purposes Once you have decided on a total points value it is time t0 choose your force. called because they are scarce compared impossible to use up every last point. Mosta cermin Choosing Characters Characters are divided into two broad categories: Lords {the most powerful characters) and Heroes (the rest). The maximum number of characters an army can include shown on the chart below, Army Max. Total Max. Max. Points Value Characters. Lords.

However, an army must always include at least ‘one character: the General. An army does not have t0 include Lords, it can include all ofits characters as Heroes ifyou prefer: At the beginning of the battle use the Intrigue At Court rule (page 12) to choose a General, and make sure that you let your opponent know who it is, For example, a 2,500 points army could include a Prince (Lord), a Mage (Hero), and wo Commanders (2 Heroes) (ie, four chatacters in total, of which one is a Lord). Choosing Troops ‘Troops are divided into Core, Special and Rare units. The number of each type of unit available depends on the army's hints value, indicated on the chare below Army Core Special Rare Points Value Units Units Units Less than 2,000 2+ 03 ol 2,000 or more 3+ o4 2 3,000 or more 4+ 05 03 4,000 or more 5+ 06 ot Each +1,000 +1 minimum = +0-1 40-1 In some cases other limitations may apply to a particular kind of unit. This is specified in the unit entry, For example, the Phoenix Guard Rare unit entry is accompanied by a ote explaining that a maximum of one unit of this kind can be included in the army. Unit Entries Each unit is represented by an entry in the army list. The unit's name is given and any limitations chat upply are explained, Profiles. The characteristic profiles for the troops in each unit are given in the unit entry. Where several profiles are required, these are also given even if, as in many cases, they are optional. a Unit Sizes. Each entry specifies the minimum size for each unit. In the case of Core units this is usually 10 models. In the ease of other units itis usually less. There are exceptions as you will see. In some cases, units also have a maximum Weapons and Armour. Each entry lists the standard ‘weapons and armour for that unit type. ‘The value of these items is included in the points value. Additional or optional weapons and armour cost extra and are covered in the Options section of the unit entry Options. Lists the different weapon, armour and equipment options for the unit and any additional points cost for taking them. It may also include the option to upgrade a unit member into a Champion. While this model usually has a specific name (the Champion of a White Lions unit is called a Guardian, for example) all the cules that apply to Champions apply to them. See che appropriate section of the Warhammer rulebook for details (pages 108-109). Special Rules. Many troops have special rules, which are fully described elsewhere in this hook. These rules are also summarised for your convenience in the army list Te would he a long and tedious business to repeat all the special rules (or every uni within the army list itself. The army list is intended primarily as a tool for choosing armies rather than for presenting game rules. Wherever possible we have indicated where special rules apply and, where space permits, we have provided notes within the list as “memory joggers’. Bear in mind that these descriptions are not necessarily exhaustive or definitive and players should refer to the main niles for a fall account. Dogs of War Dogs of War are troops of other races who are prepared to fight under your flag in return for money, food, oF some other suitable reward. The most common type of Dogs of ‘War unic are the Regiments of Renown, Although the two terms are used to describe mereenary units, both work in the same way in the army list. A selection of such reximents are available as part of the Dogs of War range of models. ‘The descriptions and rules for these very specialised units can be found in White Dwarf magazine or the Warhasniner Annual. ‘The option to include Dogs of War units is included in the army list as part of the Rare troops section, However, certain Regiments of Renown are mote commonly available and can be included in an army as a Special choice instead of a Rare choice. Some Dogs of War may also take up additional Rare choices, or choices from your Character entries. The rules for individual Regiments of Renown detail exactly which armies may take them and which army list choices they use up. 2BLORDS C_ SPittee insmod 125 High Elf Prin I individuals amon " them the best choice for High Elf INTRIGUE AT COI choote a combination of Honours andlor magi 3 High El magic items lists, to a maximum total val { magi Points/model: 22 y Cf Arthmage Points/model: 220 se either High Magic or the Warhammer rulebook toa Level 4 Winird for +3(CPO oinman dee Ge dein) Pointsodel: 70 HEROES ] Mows BS os oT Wor A ud SBATTLE STANDARD BEARER dus eget eed.’ ne Commander ie avy my Bute Sula for +25 pins Weapons: Hund weapon, a army's Genera if he was ra Options the In * May choose either a lance (+4 pts), spear (+4 pts), a Great weapon (4 pe), a halberd (+4 pes), oran additonal hand weapon (44 pts). + May aio choos longbow (+10 pes) * May wear either light armour (+2 pts) heavy armour (44 pts) or Dragon armour (+6 pt), and may alo cary a shied (+2 js) pt), which can have ithlmar Hecia basding (+5 prs), ora Great Eagle (50 prs). + May vide either an Elen steed (+12 he Bate Standard Bearer can have ay * May choose a combination of Honours ance mage tems from the Ci oe High Elf magic items lists fo iru total vale of 50 ps, ae CHARACTERS’ STEEDS few ae the pts fr ead that can (2) Mage Points’model: 95 k by High Elf charac G ruler for Great Eales Crone } Mows Bos oT Wor A Dragon can Be fod pgs 113, ¥ seg Siupais 302 5 1 6 oe ‘Weapons: Hand weapon. mates 7 tt ‘Magic: A Mage is a Level | Witard.
