The Mordheim Rules Review

This year’s Rules Review (RR) has been something of a mammoth effort on the part of

the Mordheim Rules Committee who deserve a big vote of thanks for the number of

hours put into this task. It took almost 1,400 emails and many weeks to refine the exact

wording of the changes you see here which will, hopefully, iron out most of the little

niggles you may have had with the rules as they stand.

On the whole I think most of the changes should be pretty straightforward, but I’ve

included a brief commentary after each section on some of the main points that were

raised. There’s also a FAQ at the end which covers some points that seemed more

appropriate to sort out by this means than by changing the rules themselves.

If an old FAQ contradicts this errata then this errata takes precedence. The MHRC will be

wading through all of the old FAQs to consolidate them into a single up to date document

in due course.

At the end of the day, remember that the main object of Mordheim is for you to enjoy fun

games with your friends. If you don’t like a rule then change it! That said, it’s likely that

the following will be the basis of most Mordheim tournaments, so if you’re likely to be

attending then it’s worth checking them out.

Enjoy!

Corrections, Errata and other changes to the Rulebook

All page numbers refer to the printed rules. The LRB2 already incorporates all these

changes.

Page 26, 2nd column

Replace the third paragraph (“A model may charge… past the enemy!”) with the

following:

“If an unengaged (ie, not in hand-to-hand combat) enemy model lies within 2” of the

charge route, that model may choose to intercept the charger if he wishes. This

‘interception area’ is shown in the diagram above. Only one enemy model may attempt to

intercept each charger. If the intercepting warrior would normally require a Fear test to

engage the charger then he must pass one in order to be allowed to intercept. Failure

means he will not move. If the intercepting warrior causes fear then move the models into

contact and then take a Fear test for the original charger (assuming he would normally do

so) as if he was the one being charged. Regardless of the results of this test it is still the

original charger who counts as charging in the subsequent round of combat, not the

intercepting warrior.”

Page 26, 2nd column

Add the following to the end of the last paragraph on the page:

“A model that charges will ‘strike first’ in the first round of the ensuing combat.”

Page 29, Closest Target

Add the following sentence as a new paragraph after the first:

“You may always choose to shoot at a Large Target if you can see it, whether it is in

cover or not and even if it is not the closest target.”

Page 30, 1 st column

Insert the following new paragraph after the first paragraph and before the diagram:

“If a shot misses its target by 1, and that target claimed the -1 modifier for cover, then the

shot strikes the cover instead. Normally this doesn’t matter, but in the case where a model

is concealed behind another warrior, or when the cover is a powder keg, it might be

extremely important!”

Page 31, Hit Modifiers

Change the definition of -1 Moving and shooting to:

“If your model has moved at all (other than standing up, or turning to face your target)

during this turn.”

Page 31, Hit Modifiers

Change the definition of +1 Large Target to:

“If either the target model has the Large Target special rule (such as an Ogre), or whose

main ‘body’ is over 2” tall or wide (such as most buildings).”

Page 34, Who Strikes First

Replace the paragraph with the following:

“Normally, models fight in order of descending Initiative with the highest striking first. If

their Initiatives are equal, roll a dice to see who fights first. If a model stood up in the

Recovery phase of that turn, then he will strike last irrespective of any other

circumstances.

Sometimes a model will be allowed to ‘strike first’ for some reason. Most commonly this

is because they charged in that turn, but some equipment, skills and spells produce the

same effect. If only one model ‘strikes first’ then it does so and the remainder of the

combatants strike in Initiative order as described above.

If there are several models who are each entitled to ‘strike first’, then they determine the

order of combat between themselves by Initiative, as described above. Once all those that

were eligible to ‘strike first’ have fought, any other combatants fight in Initiative order.”

Page 38, Voluntary Rout

Replace the paragraph with:

“A player may choose to voluntarily Rout at the start of any of his own turns if he wishes,

but only if he was already required to take a Rout test or if a quarter (25%) or more of his

warband are out of action .”

Page 39, Fear

In the paragraph labelled “a)”, replace the last sentence with:

“If it is failed, the model must roll 6s to score hits in that round of combat.”

Page 39, Stupidity

Replace the third paragraph with:

“If the test is failed all is not well. Until the start of his next turn (when it takes a new

Stupidity test) the model will not cast spells or fight in hand-to-hand combat (though his

opponent will still have to roll to hit him as normal).”

Page 39, Stupidity

Add the following paragraph at the end of the Stupidity section:

“Regardless of whether the test is passed or failed, the result applies until the start of the

model’s following turn (when it takes a new Stupidity test).”

Page 42, Spear

Replace the Strike First rule with:

“ Strike first: A warrior with a spear strikes first in the first turn of a hand-to-hand

combat.”

Page 42, Spear

Add a new special rule between “Strike first” and “Cavalry bonus”:

“ Unwieldy: A warrior with a spear may only use a shield or a buckler in his other hand.

He may not use a second weapon.”

Page 45, Sling

Add the following sentence to the end of the Fire Twice at Half Range special rule:

“If the model fires twice then each shot is at -1 to hit.”

Page 53, Lucky Charm

Replace the second paragraph with:

“The first time a model with a lucky charm is hit in a battle they roll a D6. On a 4+ the hit

is discarded and no damage is suffered. Owning two or more charms does not confer any

extra benefits, the model may still only try to discard the first hit.”

Page 54, Halfling Cookbook

Replace the brackets at the end of the second paragraph with:

“(note that neither an Undead warband nor a Carnival of Chaos warband can use this

item).”

Page 58, Re-Animation

Replace the first sentence with:

“One Zombie that went out of action during the last hand-to-hand combat or Shooting

phase immediately returns to battle.”

Page 60, Silver Arrows of Arha

Replace the first sentence with:

“Unlike other spells, this cannot be cast whilst in hand-to-hand combat. The spell

summons D6+2 arrows which the wizard can use to shoot against one enemy model.”

Page 65, 1 st column, 1 st paragraph of Weapons and Armour

Replace the first sentence with:

“Each warrior you recruit can be armed with up to two close combat weapons (in

addition to his free dagger), up to two different missile weapons and any armour chosen

from the appropriate list. For these purposes, a brace of pistols counts as a single missile

weapon.”

Page 85, Steel Whip weapon stat line

Under range, replace “4"” with “Close combat”:

Page 85, Steel Whip weapon stat line

Under special rules, replace “reach” with “whipcrack”:

Page 85, Steel Whip special rules

Replace the reach special rule with:

“ Whipcrack: when the wielder charges they gain +1A for that turn. This bonus attack is

added after any other modifications. When the wielder is charged they gain +1A that they

may only use against the charger. This additional attack will ‘strike first’. If the wielder is

simultaneously charged by two or more opponents they will still only receive a total of

+1A. If the wielder is using two whips at the same time then they get +1A for the

additional hand weapon, but only the first whip gets the whipcrack +1A.”

Page 95, Rat Ogre

Replace the Large special rule with:

“ Large Target: Rat Ogres are Large Targets as defined in the shooting rules.”

Page 117, Post Battle Sequence

Stages 1-3 remain as they are. Stage 5 is renumbered stage 10. Stage 4 is replaced by the

following new stages:

Sell Wyrdstone. This can only be done once per post battle sequence.

Check available veterans. Roll to see how much Experience worth of

veterans is available for hire. You don’t have to commit to hiring any at this

point.

Make rarity rolls and buy rare items. Make rolls for any rare items you

intend to buy and pay for them. These items go into the warband’s stash.

Look for Dramatic Personae. If you want to hire any.

Hire new recruits & buy common items. New recruits come equipped with

their free dagger and may be bought common items. This is done in any order

and may be done several times. Note that newly hired recruits cannot buy rare

items. They can, however, be equipped with rare items if there are any in the

warband’s stash in stage 9.

Reallocate equipment. Swap equipment between models as desired

(provided they are eligible to use it).

Page 117, Death of a Leader

Replace the last sentence of the second paragraph (“In the case of Undead warbands…”)

with:

“You can buy a Vampire after the next game, at which point the Necromancer will step

down (whether he wants to or not) and lose the Leader skill.”

Page 117, Death of a Leader

Add the following paragraph at the end of this section:

“If the leader of a Sisters of Sigmar, Possessed or Carnival of Chaos warband dies then

their successor will be entitled to learn to use magic in their stead. The new leader may

choose a prayer/spell from the appropriate list, instead of rolling on the Advance table,

the first time they are eligible for an advance. After this they are considered to be a

wizard/use prayers as appropriate for their warband and use the advance table as normal.”

Page 121, Henchmen

In the first paragraph of this section, change the second sentence to read:

“If the dice roll indicates an increase in a characteristic which has already been increased

(or is at its racial maximum), roll again until an unincreased characteristic is rolled.”
