When in Doubt, Use the Most Important Rule!
What is the "Most Important Rule," you
ask? Well, it's an idea that you will start seeing
in Games
Workshop rulebooks, and you should assume that it's
in effect even if it's not yet in your particular
rulebook.
Whenever you run into a rules question during a game
that you can't resolve, that's when the MIR kicks
in. Here's what the MIR says:
| If you encounter a rules
problem during one of your games and cannot find
the answer in the rulebook or any other Games
Workshop resource, dice off to decide on a temporary
answer and get on with your game. |
Okay, Now What?
After the game, take another good look through the
rulebooks. The pressure of an ongoing battle can cause
anyone to
miss a small reference in the rules. If you still
can't find your answer in the rulebooks, then that's
when the
Shrine of Knowledge can help. If the answer is not here
either, you can make up a "house
rule" between you and your regular opponents
to solve the problem.
Don't forget that you can
visit your local Games Workshop Hobby Centre, Independent
Retailer, or
gaming club. Chances
are that the veteran players at these locations
have already encountered your particular rules
question, so
they should be able to tell you where the well-hidden
rule can be found or give you advice on how to
resolve your dilemma.
Lastly, remember that the
Hobby Specialists who staff Games Workshop's Direct
Services departments
are very
knowledgeable and can often help you with rules
questions. Plus, if you have found a genuine
grey area in the rules
that has no answer, the Direct Services Hobby
Specialists will notify the Games Development
team. Your important
feedback will help us craft new Errata documents
that will hopefully resolve these rules questions.
Thank you
in advance for your help!

A. We are in the process of reviewing
and updating the Errata/Q&As for each army. As they are finished,
they will be published, so keep an eye on this page! |
