About this board game
Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles (6th Edition) is a tabletop wargame for 2 players, with games lasting around 360 minutes. Command an army from a vast range of forces, including Imperial Humans, Dwarves, High Elves, Undead Vampires, Orcs, Beastmen, and Skaven.
This sixth edition introduced a radical change from the fifth edition, with major revisions to army composition, magic, and the balance of power between heroes and units. The rulebook provides the rules needed to field your army on the tabletop, while also guiding you through collecting and painting your own Citadel miniatures.
The 288-page hardback rulebook is divided into six sections, bringing gameplay rules, setting information, scenarios, and campaign guidance together in one volume:
- The Rules: Learn how to field your army on the tabletop.
- Advanced Rules: Cover war machines, chariots, monsters, mighty heroes, buildings, and other rare or potent troops.
- Magic: Discover how to use magic items and cast spells.
- World of Warhammer: Explore the history, races, and armies of the setting, with full-colour photographs of collectible forces.
- Scenarios: Find advice for creating your own scenarios, along with examples and information about terrain.
- Appendix: Get guidance for running campaigns and other useful hints.
With its blend of army battles, powerful heroes, monsters, magic, terrain, and campaign support, Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles (6th Edition) serves as both a complete play guide and an introduction to the wider Warhammer world.
