Yes, it's the evil potency of warpstone!

The Running with the Pack rule does not mean units of Rat Ogres never have a rank bonus, but rather than the Packmaster and Master Moulder models are ignored when working out the unit's rank bonus, so only ranks of Rat Ogres count. Use the Packmasters' or Master Moulders' Ld value (or the General's) as the base Ld for the unit, to which you then add the Rat Ogres' rank bonus.

No, left on their own the beasts lose this rule.

Yes, but we think it looks better if you put it on the leftmost or rightmost position in the rank.

Yes it is, and yes it can (in a kind of instinctive and inarticulate way, probably).

This is a bit of a complicated situation, where a unit has a mix of frenzied and non-frenzied models. The only other occurrence we can think of when something like this ever happens is when a non-frenzied character joins a frenzied unit. For simplicity's sake, we tend to apply these same rules for the Packmasters/Master Moulders in units of Rat Ogres. So, as long as the Rat Ogres are frenzied, we consider the entire unit Immune to Psychology and obliged to charge, but the Packmasters don't get any extra Attacks.

Even though it is quite monstrous, it is not a monster, and its Unit Strength is 5.

Correct! Remember that, just like a chariot, it can pivot only once during a charge.

No, it doesn't. So it can charge an enemy that was behind it, for example.

Yes. Measure to see if the charge is in range first and then declare the reaction. If the unit flees out of reach, move the Doomwheel after it the entire distance rolled.

No, the Doomwheel must still obey the charging rule stating that it must charge the target in the same arc it begins the charge movement in.

Absolutely!

Only one.

No it does not roll to hit – bolts automatically hit the closest unit (literally!), whether it is in combat or not, so there is no randomisation. And no, it cannot stand and shoot, its lightning attack only happens in each friendly Shooting phase.

The player controlling the affected unit. Normally, characters and champions are more resilient than normal rank-and-files to the mutating effects of the Curse.

Most definitely not: 'equipment' refers to their choice of weapons, and 'command' to the champion, musician and banner. Nice try!

Yes, but your plan would have to be really, really cunning and treacherous for you to gain any advantage by doing so...

For both models, we suggest using a Unit Strength of 3 (plus 1 for the Warlord), and a base size of 40mm square. However, do keep in mind that, as for all conversions, there are no strict rules about base size (other than: 'Be reasonable!'), and that any forthcoming Citadel miniature might be different from this suggested size.

We suggest 60 x 100 mm. However, do keep in mind that, as for all conversions, there are no strict rules about base size (other than: 'Be reasonable!'), and that any forthcoming Citadel miniature might be different from this suggested size.

They are all Unit Strength 2. The safest bet is to assume they are all on a cavalry base, even though they are obviously infantry models. However, do keep in mind that, as for all conversions, there are no strict rules about base size (other than: 'Be reasonable!'), and that any forthcoming Citadel miniature might be different from this suggested size.

It flees/pursues 3D6", and note that you don't roll on the 'Berserk Abomination chart' when you roll a triple for fleeing/pursuing.

It counts as a Cannon (as opposed to a Great Cannon), so its range is 48".

It's for both ranged and close combat attacks. Hits from the Mishap chart are treated as hits against its side/rear (as in reality they would be coming from inside it!), so the machine does not get any armour save against them.

For both models, we suggest using a Unit Strength of 6 (plus 1 for the rider).

If you don't have a unit for the Bell/Furnace, you can deploy it, but it won't be able to move for the rest of the game. So why would you do that?

At deployment, characters can be deployed in the unit pushing the Screaming Bell and they will also become Unbreakable. The drawback to this is that they cannot leave the unit as long as the Bell is still there. Once the game is started, no characters can join the unit as long as the Bell remains, as characters cannot join an Unbreakable unit. The same goes for the Plague Furnace, except that the only characters that can be deployed in its unit are those belonging to Clan Pestilens (i.e. Plague Priests, Lord Skrolk, and any other Pestilens characters we might publish or you might design). The reason for this is that the Furnace only makes Plague Monks Unbreakable and no other Skaven.

No, once its unit is gone the Bell/Furnace is stuck for the rest of the game, but it is still Unbreakable.

It continues to function normally inside its unit. The only difference is that all ranged attacks against it will hit the Bell – no need to randomise.

The dice rolled for the Screaming Bell are not power dice, but, as at least one of its effects can act as spells, it is still best to roll the Bell's powers before casting spells.

When the unit executes any manoeuvre (other than a wheel), the Bell/Furnace is immediately moved to the centre of its front rank. If the unit is engaged in combat, the Bell/Furnace is stuck in place and cannot be moved within the ranks until the unit can manoeuvre/reform again.

Yes, the great censer works nicely with an extra bit of forward movement!

Just one, for a total of 7 attacks. This represents the fact that the Monks mostly channel the energies of their frenzy into swinging the great censer!

Yes, they do count, just like impact hits would. The wounds caused by these rules on the enemy are added to your side's combat resolution score, while those caused on your own unit are added to the enemy's combat resolution score. Note that this answer covers everything that can cause wounds in combat both on the enemy and on its own side (and the Skaven are famous for this kind of 'accident').

The unit can only advance straight forward and/or wheel, nothing else.

Yes, that is a reasonable solution.

They have Ld 0 (-) and so will fail Ld tests automatically, but as they are Unbreakable, this will matter only very rarely (spells and magic items that force Ld tests, etc.).

'Stubborn Ld 5', as Stubborn troops use the Ld on their profile for Break tests.

All Warlock Engineers can choose a Warlock-augmented Weapon from their basic equipment, and this was intended to make them more freely available for players wishing to field them. This still counts as a magic weapon from all points of view (so, for example, the Warlock Engineer cannot buy another magical weapon). In addition to Warlock Engineers, a single other character in the army can pick a Warlock-augmented Weapon as his magical weapon. Exactly the same goes for Death Globes –all Globadier champions can have them, as well as one character.

Assassins, and Gutter Runners that upgrade to Poisoned Attacks, use the normal rules (the Scavenge-pile only refers to non-Eshin characters) –that is, Assassins and Gutter Runners have poisoned throwing stars and slings!

Yes, Thanquol rather prefers that his bodyguard protects him from a distance (we suspect that he does not entirely trust this 'gift'...).

On his own, Boneripper is not worth anything. His points values are incorporated into Thanquol's, much like the cost of a magic item.

No, the Doomrocket does not need line of sight, as it's simply fired in a nominated direction. It can be used to stand and shoot. Essentially, it follows the normal rules for missile weapons, except that it does not roll to hit and instead has its own firing rules.

The Clanrats are placed in the same position, formation and facing of the destroyed unit (imagine you are literally replacing each model with a Clanrat). If the destroyed unit was a skirmishing unit, replace the models and then immediately form the Clanrats up and roll a scatter dice to determine the unit's facing.

In this case, ignore the randomisation roll and simply hit all models touched by the template.

Take a Toughness test with the best Toughness value available to the ridden monster/chariot/multiple statline model and then if the test is failed, randomise the wound as you would for a missile hit.

Only if it's a Clan Eshin character.

No, they can be revealed even if the unit is not in combat, in which case he must be placed in the unit's front rank, just like any other character.

The unit is worth 50 victory points, regardless of its size. It just seems fair!

No, they normally treat the table edge as impassable, while when Out of Control and in Blind Fury they will leave the table as described.

Fleeing Abomination/Doomwheels move through units as normal, inflicting impact hits just like a chariot would.

Yes, as its Strength affects the Strength of its attacks.

It is destroyed, just like the rats that might emerge from its carcass.

The Warpfire Thrower is fired before the charging unit is moved. If the target is too far, then we suggest fleeing instead...

Yes, it does, just like in the 'Spins Wildly' result.

Yes, the shots stop after travelling 18".

The machine's – Strength 4, -2 armour save modifier.

The same as its number of crew, which is 3 (even though the models are not separate).

The 'no armour save' applies only to the close combat attacks made by the weapon. Hits from Storm Daemon's magic missiles have a normal -2 armour save modifier.

Yes they do, as this spell pretty well fits the rulebook definition of 'a ranged attack with unique targeting rules, which allow the player to deliberately aim his shot at a character inside a unit'.

No, as the exact position of the models is not known, the 5+ roll for the building effectively replaces the individual tests for the models in the unit. Initiative tests aplenty will need to be taken if the building collapses, of course!

The casualties are distributed as hits from shooting. If the unit includes characters, just follow the normal rules for shooting hits against such units. However, if the characters in the unit are Unit Strength 5 or more, they are not affected by the spell at all and casualties will fall amongst other models in the unit (just imagine the characters are not there). If the unit is destroyed by the spell, the player controlling the characters must place them anywhere 1" away from the newly formed Clanrats, facing in any direction.

No, these bonuses only apply to close combat hits.

One round of close combat only (i.e. one 'set of attacks').
